This - and thank you.

But won’t someone think of the poor filthy-rich MAGA dude Ambassador Bridge owner that called Trump to complain about another bridge taking away from his profits?

On a more serious note, I like the Blue Water Bridge!

EDIT: grammar

Thank you for sharing this. I found it very touching - especially his response when he was tracked down years later and reflected on the moment he asked the question:

"… I think it’s an affront to play the game of “you don’t have the ‘need to know’” for someone who’s doing one of the most serious, grave jobs that there is in the armed forces. I have to say, I feel I do have a need to know, because I am a human being.

It is inherent in an officer’s commission that he has to do what is right in terms of the needs of the nation despite any orders to the contrary. You really don’t know at the time of key turning, whether you are complying with your oath of office.

I am left with a deep and growing hunger for peace among people at every level. It seems urgent to me that we find ways to become a more tolerant and forgiving people.

Perhaps, I was not a good match for duty as a missile launch officer.”

Such a very good man.

Let’s do our part, dear friends. And see you on the streets on Mayday at the next protest!

Couch Guyliner doing his best to destroy democracy everywhere. Not that this is news for any of us.

And we’'ll remember it.

I’m so sorry to hear of what you and your brother have been going through. It’s not your fault, it’s not his fault, it’s not the fault of so many other countless young adults who have far fewer opportunities.

I, and many other older folks, are rooting for you. Hang in there and go easy on yourselves.

You are our future.

This is beautiful - thank you.

The Sieg Heiling Space Karen genius could not have foreseen this. Is that right?

This is the way.

This is so thoughtfully and excellently stated. Thank you for sharing that. I fully agree with you.

Nice! Merci!

funnelled some of the stolen money into US political campaigns, including a Donald Trump fundraiser during his first presidency.

…

In one instance, the two charged investors $93,000 each for admission to a 2017 Trump fundraiser – then used the money to make illegal donations totalling $600,000 to the committee hosting the event.

Interesting…

I hope she stays in the slammer and isn’t pardoned by the orange felon.

The campaign has been codenamed SANDWORM_MODE by supply chain security company Socket. As with prior Shai-Hulud attack waves, the malicious code embedded into the packages comes with capabilities to siphon system information, access tokens, environment secrets, and API keys from developer environments and automatically propagate by abusing stolen npm and GitHub identities to extend its reach.

“The sample retains Shai-Hulud hallmarks and adds GitHub API exfiltration with DNS fallback, hook-based persistence, SSH propagation fallback, MCP server injection with embedded prompt injection targeting AI coding assistants, and LLM API Key harvesting,” the company said.

The packages, published to npm by two npm publisher aliases, official334 and javaorg, are listed below -

The files show that Smolin continued to correspond with Epstein, and the two made repeated efforts to talk by phone and meet up, until at least 2013 — five years after the latter pleaded guilty in Florida to state charges of soliciting prostitution from a minor and another criminal count. The paper trail appears to contradict Smolin’s own account of his relationship with Epstein.

Imagine continuing an association with a child rape trade ringleader after learning of their heinous crime. This is horrible.

Exactly, thank you. It’s interesting how the great culprit was omitted from the title.

Precisely this.

A racist “leader,” with his mind firmly entrenched in the disgraceful ancestry of British imperialism.

Remember, folks: the poor, the marginalized people and the refugees are not our enemies.

Absolutely right. Thank you for posting this, OP.

It’s rare for grand juries to decline to approve charges sought by prosecutors, but such rejections have occurred more frequently in recent months as the administration has pursued legally dubious cases.

Yes. In other words, The Trump Administration is using bullying tactics in a court of law and lying, but the world can see that. And as such, the rare phenomenon of grand juries to decline indictments becomes…

commonplace.

The morons couldn’t even get sandwich guy.

(EDIT: grammar)

Fallujah

Blackwater and Erik Prince make me think of the terrorist attack against the people of Fallujah. I wasn’t aware of the rest of these details, but some are familiar. Thank you very much for bringing this to the fore. It’s helpful having this context.
