[The Washington Post] Kristi Noem’s luxury DHS jet to be used by other administration officials

Kristi Noem’s luxury DHS jet to be used by other administration officials The former homeland security secretary said the $70 million plane, which included a bedroom, was intended to carry out the president’s mass deportation agenda.

By Amy B Wang

Why The F-¢|< is Melania allowed to use the $70,000,000 taxpayer funded plane?

She’s not an employee. Unlike previous First Ladies, she has a completely ceremonial role.

They demand we cut WIC to pay for Trump and Bebe’s war and they can’t reduce these outrageous costs.

We Aren’t Mad Enough. 🤬

[The Washington Post] Their tiny church is on the cover of JD Vance’s new book. They don’t know him.

2026-04-04T21:28:00.001-04:00

JD was paid $8M for this book. He could at least donate 5-10% to help support the "Cover Model" for the book.

The members of a tiny Methodist church in Virginia are excited — if a little confused — that Vance's memoir of his path to Catholicism has put them in the spotlight.

As famed Arecibo Observatory shuts down, its scientists face an uncertain future | Science | AAAS

science.org

At the end of a winding road lined by flowering red flamboyan trees, you can still see the broken remains of the world's largest single-dish radio telescope. The Arecibo Observatory's 305-meter telescope collapsed in 2020, and in October 2022 its owner, the National Science Foundation (NSF), announced that after 6 decades, the site would no longer be an observatory. Instead, NSF plans to transform it into an educational facility. Contracts for up to 90 staff members, including 25 researchers, end on 14 August.

"We're closing out all science activities," says physicist Julie Brisset of the University of Central Florida (UCF), who's in charge of maintenance and research at Arecibo. To scientists who have worked at the observatory, used its data, or mentored local students, it is a painful transition. "It's very sad," says Brazilian physicist Pedrina Terra dos Santos, who has worked at the observatory for 17 years and, like many of her colleagues, is still seeking a new job.

NYTimes: Trump Friend Asked ICE to Detain the Mother of His Child

Wow! That's gross. Can Trump be any more of a Scumbag?

Trump Friend Asked ICE to Detain the Mother of His Child

https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/20/us/paolo-zampolli-ice-melania-trump-epstein.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share

Last June, the man credited with introducing President Trump to his wife asked the administration for a favor.

Paolo Zampolli, a former modeling agent turned presidential special envoy, had learned that his Brazilian ex-girlfriend was in a Miami jail, arrested on charges of fraud at her workplace. They had been in a custody battle over their teenage son. Now he saw an opportunity.

He reached out to a top official at Immigration and Customs Enforcement, explaining that his ex was in the country illegally, according to records obtained by The New York Times and a person familiar with the communications. Could she be put in ICE detention? That could help him get his son back.

The official, David Venturella, promptly called the agency's Miami office to ensure that ICE agents would pick up the woman from the jail before she was released on bail, according to the records and a person with knowledge of the conversation who requested anonymity to discuss it. During the call, Mr. Venturella noted that the case was important to someone close to the White House.

A timeline written by Spivack and included in the large cache of Epstein documents released earlier this year said the break-in happened on February 12, 2023. It was discovered the following day when Spivack turned on his computer and discovered a text file warning him that his network had been compromised, according to that document.

Further investigation turned up traces ‌of unusual activity ⁠on the server, the document said, adding that the activity "included combing through certain files pertaining to the Epstein investigation."

“American Obituary” - U2

2026-02-19T00:10:00.000-05:00

AMERICAN OBITUARY

You have the right to remain silent
or not…

God above a mother's love
A guiding hand to pick you up
To crush her like a coffee cup
Why?
Crossing guard or yellow bus
Our children teach us who to trust
The worst can't kill what's best in us
But they can try
America will rise
Against the people of the lie

I love you more
Than hate loves war
I love you more
Than hate loves war
(War, war)

We love you more than hate loves war

Renee Good born to die free
American mother of three
Seventh day January
A bullet for each child, you see
The color of her eye
930 Minneapolis
To desecrate domestic bliss
Three bullets blast, three babies kissed
Renee the domestic terrorist???
What you can't kill can't die
America will rise
Against the people of the lie
I love you more
Than hate loves war
I love you more
Than hate loves war
(War, war)

We love you more than hate loves war

I am not mad at you, Lord
You're the reason I was there
Could you stop a heart from breaking
By having it not care?
Could you stop a bullet in midair?

She says…
The power of the people is so much stronger than the people in power
The power of the people is so much stronger than the people in power
The power of the people is so much stronger than the people in power

In the streets with children playing
In the churches where they're praying
School teachers are explaining
America, America
The power of the people!

We love you more (we say, we say) than hate loves war
I love you more (I say, I say) than hate loves war

NYTimes: How the Supreme Court Secretly Made Itself Even More Secretive

2026-02-05T16:13:00.001-05:00

So…. Because the current SCOTUS is viewed as untrustworthy and IS UNTRUSTWORTHY, they decided to enact Mandatory NDAs for all employees. Then they Hid that from US Citizens.

Thats the Opposite of Increasing Trust.

A critical zero-day vulnerability in Cloudflare's Web Application Firewall (WAF) allowed attackers to bypass security controls and directly access protected pic.x.com/zN6fysUzS2

A critical zero-day vulnerability in Cloudflare's Web Application Firewall (WAF)allowed attackers to bypass security controls and directly access protected origin servers through a certificate validation path.

Security researchers from FearsOff discovered that requests targeting the /.well-known/acme-challenge/ directory could reach origins even when customer-configured WAF rules explicitly blocked all other traffic.

The Automatic Certificate Management Environment (ACME) protocol automates SSL/TLS certificate validation by requiring Certificate Authorities (CAs) to verify domain ownership.

FedRAMP at the center of DoJ’s latest cyber fraud allegations

2025-12-12T08:31:00.001-05:00

"As previously disclosed in our public filings, we proactively brought this matter to the government's attention following an internal review. We have cooperated extensively with the government's investigation and continue to do so," an Accenture spokeswoman told Federal News Network. "We remain dedicated to operating with the highest ethical standards as we serve all our clients, including the federal government."

In an Oct. 12, 2023, filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Accenture referenced how it made a voluntary disclosure to the government that initiated a DoJ investigation "concerning whether one or more employees provided inaccurate submissions to an assessor who was evaluating on behalf of the U.S. government an AFS service offering and whether the service offering fully implemented required federal security controls."

This scumbag has gone full Handmaid's Tale...

https://x.com/rpsagainsttrump/status/1986571362287427771?s=46

Is it good that women can vote in America? I don't think so.
Abortion and Homosexuality would likely still be illegal if not for the female vote.
The 19th Amendment has been a moral and political tragedy for America.
Women were not made to lead, but to follow and to feel.
We should return to the household vote, where women share their thoughts with their fathers or their husbands and the men in their life make the final decision.

Disgusting.
