In 2004 I was serving at US Embassy Tashkent, Uzbekistan.

I attended a graduation ceremony for Uzbek military members that had finished language training...some had learned English, others had learned French.

The French Air Attache was also there, and he told me about some Uzbek military officers that he had hosted in France as part of an exchange program.

One day they were driving through a French city. On a street corner was a group of people engaging in peaceful protest, holding signs.

The Uzbek officers immediately grew angry.

Why?...asked the Air Attache.

This is an outrage! In our country we would fix this problem immediately! We would never allow this to happen!

Freedom of speech, including the freedom to protest...is incredibly important.

'It’s already in the cards': #Trump #impeachment urged by WSJ editorial board member

Tom Boggioni, April 12, 2025 8:17AM ET

"In a column published late Friday, a member of the Wall Street Journal editorial board claimed it would be 'desirable' to subject Donald Trump to a third impeachment to make up for the damage he has done to the U.S. economy with his 'ill-founded' trade war.

"According to longtime columnist Holman W. Jenkins Jr., Trump's on-again, off-again tariff threats almost makes it appear he wants to be impeached, with Jenkins writing, 'A future Trump impeachment seemed all but guaranteed by last Wednesday morning. It seems only slightly less likely now. It may even be desirable to restore America’s standing with creditors and trade partners.' "

@xankarn I can't like this hard enough and one thing to do could be for AI researchers to make *very* clear in this RFI that closes in 24 hours that they will NOT be participating in any federal-related, federal-involved AI research until they stop harassing universities.

(also, fascists doing RFIs is just so weird. I think it's code for 'tell me which grift you prefer.')

Illinoisans and Americans,

This CR is another attempt by Trump and Musk to take over the US government by giving Carte Blanche to continue their takeover of the federal government. Letting this CR pass and voting to end Cloture would be as damaging to the US as 10 government shutdowns. Call your senator now!

Twitter's servers were not secured properly and were publicly visible. IP attribution is not conclusive. Attackers frequently use compromised devices, VPNs, or proxy network. Remember he has all your private data, tax and banking and ssn info as well.

Waiting for Twitter employees who don't stand for his BS to wipe the servers and lock him out of everything. People, please realize that these are just coddled idiots surrounded by yes men.

Take it down. Take it down!

WIRED · What Really Happened With the DDoS Attacks That Took Down XBy Lily Hay Newman

Murphy: Six Weeks In, This White House Is On Its Way To Being The Most Corrupt In U.S. History
Senator #ChrisMurphy
Mar 6, 2025 UNITED STATES CAPITOL
WASHINGTON—U.S. Senator Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) on Thursday spoke on the U.S. Senate floor to expose the unprecedented corruption of the Trump administration’s first six weeks in office. Murphy condemned Trump’s normalization of pay-to-play politics, where billionaire donors dictate policy and taxpayer money is funneled into the pockets of the president, Elon Musk, and the corporate elite.
