Absolutely sickening shit: the Dena had just participated in international naval exercises *with the US* and was unarmed and the US knew this and sank it anyway and left the survivors to drown
Always just enough democrats to crush anything thats good. Its a scam folks.
Watching people do this gives me the same feeling as watching someone piss their pants in public.
WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin?
NOEM: Yes
WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that?
NOEM: No.
SCOOP: Noem's DHS has acquired at least NINE new jets in recent weeks, with another one on the way.
Half are luxury jets.

Devastating for those of us that report on where our tax dollars flow. SAM.gov is a hot mess, and would require a complete redesign to even begin to approach FPDS.
Getting shown up in the arena of elite impunity by *the British monarchy* is an incredible “America at 250!” achievement
She says over and over again "I'm going to read from Masnick's article." This is a nothing burger. No one who watched her video can possibly think she plagiarized me. I watched much of that long video and that guy may be the dumbest, angriest guy around. Not to mention misogynistic

Come for the @wired.com cover art. Stay for the incisive, nuanced, wild ride of a story. I urge you to read it in full.
"When I call up my longtime industry sources to get their thoughts on the gay tech mafia, not only have they heard of it—they have highly specific notions of how it works."
SCOOP: DHS strikes $1 billion purchasing agreement with Palantir.
The news comes as Palantir leadership struggles to address internal tensions over the company's work with immigration enforcers.
Here's how it was announced internally:

If you’re an American service member who gets killed in a retaliatory strike, your family can take comfort in the fact that it was done in service of making the host of Celebrity Apprentice feel like a big man for a minute, before he moved on to something else and forgets about this forever
Never in a million years did I ever fathom when I resurrected the Epstein story in 2018 that it would lead to first arrest of a British Royal in four centuries. Not since King Charles I was arrested in 1647.

Interesting. @jasonpaladino.bsky.social asks Grok what it says Elon Musk wanted to visit Epstein's island, after it was known he was a pedophile & trafficker. Grok says they have "at most a questionable association" & echoes Musk's claim — despite presented evidence — that contact was "incidental."

one note for the "optics" amateur consultant crowd: "abolish ice" is actually the calibrated negotiating stalking horse because we actually cannot tolerate a "department of homeland security" in a multicultural secular democracy
WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment
"I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to
assess the victim.
At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."
They’re calling it the most divorced anyone has ever been
Just so people outside of MN know - a lot of the US citizens getting “arrested” by ICE never get processed at Whipple. They are roughed up during the arrest and then often dropped off miles from where they were picked up. It means we don’t know the true scale of what ICE is doing based on ICE stats

If you’re out in Minneapolis and want one piece of kit that will allow you to outmaneuver even the most fit ICE goon, get some of these bad boys:
This dude will have a gofundme that hits a million bucks, a conservative talk show, and a pardon in the next 6 months.
Here’s her extremely short husband and Kristi “puppy killer” Noem, who steered contracts to his company through a Delaware LLC. Robbing the taxpayer so his fascist propagandist wife can fly private.
Trump Administration Firm Tied to Kristi Noem Secretly Got Money From $220 Million DHS Ad Contracts The company is run by the husband of Noem's chief DHS spokesperson and has personal and business ties to Noem and her aides. DHS invoked the "emergency" at the border to skirt competitive bidding rules for the taxpayer-funded campaign. by Justin Elliott, Joshua Kaplan and Alex Mierjeski November 14, 2025, 5:00 am
The Department of Homeland Security has kept at least one beneficiary of the nine-figure ad deal a secret, records and interviews show: a Republican consulting firm with long-standing personal and business ties to Noem and her senior aides at DHS. The company running the Mount Rushmore shoot, called the Strategy Group, does not appear on public documents about the contract. The main recipient listed on the contracts is a mysterious Delaware company, which was created days before the deal was finalized. No firm has closer ties to Noem's political operation than the Strategy Group. It played a central role in her 2022 South Dakota gubernatorial campaign. Corey Lewandowski, her top advis at DHS, has worked extensively with the firm. And the company's CEO is married to Noem's chief spokesperson at DHS, Tricia McLaughlin, The Strategy Group's ad work is the first known example of money flowing from Noem's agency to businesses controlled by her allies and friends.
Tricia McLaughlin, the mouthpiece of DHS, posted a private jet photo to her Instagram. It was recently revealed that her husband’s company won a subcontract on a non-competed $220M contract from DHS, in a deal described by experts as “corrupt” and “worthy of an investigation.”
Law enforcement officers have a habit of giving confusing or contradictory orders, and then shooting people when they try to comply. See the shooting of Daniel Shaver.
this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to jump out of a helicopter to kidnap a head of state and his wife so some oil ceos can make a lot of money. we’ll be watching from a resort in florida that still serves wedge salad and checking how many retweets we get. good luck soldier
