This is my shocked face.
Elon Musk’s goons at DOGE transmitted a large amount of data—all of it undetected—using a Starlink Wi-Fi terminal they installed on top of the White House, according to a new report.

We hope this sends a message to other spyware companies, especially those that facilitate human rights abuses by governments, that their time for evading accountability is coming to an end.

If the Supreme Court ultimately agrees with what the gov't is arguing today, that the President has broad Article II powers that would permit it to deport people & there can be no judicial review, then literally no one is safe.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.
We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Pathetic weaponization of DOJ.
So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

New in PN: AOC shows how to fight back and stand strong
"Prominent figures standing up can undermine the climate of fear that MAGA relies on to impose terror. AOC’s work on behalf of her constituents and refusal to be intimidated are models of resistance other Democrats would do well to imitate."

That is the absolute truth.
Nothing in security is easy.
Anyone who tells you otherwise is misinformed, outright delusional, or selling you something.

It's hard to believe anyone is actually like "yes, this is normal" and yet somehow we're not getting real coverage of this in the press.
They’re not even bothering to hide it now: Jack Posobiec at CPAC: “Welcome to the end of democracy. We are here to overthrow it completely. We didn’t get all the way there on Jan. 6, but we will endeavor to get rid of it.”
America, please don’t treat this election as normal politics.

This would be devastating for the country. CISA has done outstanding work. I have been following their latest initiatives and they are spot on with what they are doing.
CiSA could be gutted if Trump wins presidential election -- potential retaliation for its past efforts to fight election disinfo and its adversarial stance against Trump's false claims that the 2020 election was stolen www.politico.com/news/2024/02...
