  1. It was a scam, but crime is legal now. At least if you align yourself with El Presedente
  2. I cannot emphasize it enough - GamerGate and that hate machine that spun up in the early 20-teens is the nitro that fuels trumpco and trumpism. Steve Bannon has said it himself many times, this is from a 2017 interview about how he learned from playing WoW how to "activate" a troll army It's been going on for more than a decade now, and is basically the background radiation in gaming and entertainment
  3. Shit, we would be fortunate to have someone that actually looks for and listens to experts to solve problems.
  4. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/university-alabama-doctoral-student-detained-ice-governments-college-c-rcna198320 More academics being disappeared by ICE. This guy doesn't seem to have done anything except be Iranian. Maybe we should rename the thread to "ethnic cleansing thread of dominance"
  5. Damaging their livers because they're following brainworm heroin addict advice instead of a doctors advice https://www.yahoo.com/news/after-rfk-jr-recommends-vitamin-a-as-a-measles-treatment-some-texas-patients-show-signs-of-toxicity-214353603.html?guccounter=1 Weeks after Health and Human Services Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. touted vitamin A as an effective treatment for measles amid the largest outbreak of disease in decades, hospitalized patients in West Texas are being treated for signs of vitamin A toxicity. Several patients at Covenant Children’s Hospital in Lubbock have been found to have abnormal liver function, CNN reported, which can occur when a person takes excessive doses of vitamin A. Those being treated include “a handful of unvaccinated children who were given so much vitamin A that they had signs of liver damage,” the New York Times reported.
  6. Hey isn't a favorite bugaboo to concern troll about "price controls"? Why aren't y'all more vocal now that they're actually being seriously proposed by the president? WSJ: Trump Warned U.S. Automakers Not to Raise Prices in Response to Tariffs
  7. Really good breakdown by Ward Carrol on this shit show. For context: he's a retired naval aviator who's planned and executed these sorts of strikes and has originated strike plans. He explains why it's critical and necessary to use a SCIF and tolerate the inconvenience of highly secure comms. He also explains why this would get any mere mortal sent to Leavenworth. He agrees, ain't nothin gonna happen. It's now how trumpco rolls.
  8. Yeah weird. Elon was named as someone "looking into" the signal opsec fuckup by Mike Waltz. That makes about as much sense as selling gold from Ft Knox to buy more Bitcoin, so sure why not.
  9. 'member when wearing a mask was the worst thing you could do near a protest? I 'member. Almost like it was never about the masks and just an excuse to exercise their authoritarian supremacist reflexes
  10. I was told that signal met opsec and encryption needs for this stuff. Nobody bats 1000 And it will remain to be seen if anything actually happens over this, or if the administration just says "fuck are you gonna do about it?" and the republicans fall in line
  11. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/doge-staffer-big-balls-provided-tech-support-cybercrime-ring-records-show-2025-03-26/
  12. Not to mention the pentagon had specifically warned about foreign adversaries penatrating Signal https://www.npr.org/2025/03/25/nx-s1-5339801/pentagon-email-signal-vulnerability So uh yeah I'm gonna have to disagree with you and imma that it satisfies opsec requirements
  13. I gotta say, selling US Treasury gold bars in order to buy more Bitcoin is just about the dumbest fucking thing I've ever heard of.
  14. Good lord man get a hold of yourself lol. Telling people to go buy specific shares in a company is not in the same solar system as "hey look at these efficient and hybrid vehicles". Although keep reaching, I'm curious to see how far you can stretch
  15. If you or I disclosed this level of national security information we would be on our way to El Salvador with fuckin black bags on our heads dude. This is an outrageous level of disclosure and ongoing illegal communication. Fuck outta here with "it's too hard" bullshit. Give them a laptop with a SMART card and government SIM. Ease of use should not be a priority when the stakes are Airmen getting shot down on a mission because they wanted to send emojis instead of ASCII
  16. Signal the app may be secure but their devices certainly aren't cleared for classified communications. There's dedicated networks for that shit. Endpoints are extremely vulnerable. They're doing it precisely because it's against the rules - it's an expression of their authority and power. Even moreso when nobody is fired or prosecuted because of this. It was like a couple weeks ago that gabbard was spouting off about LEAKERS!!!!ONE!!!
  17. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cy4v3ndg28jo The White House has confirmed that a journalist was inadvertently added to an unsecure group chat in which US national security officials planned a military strike in Yemen. ... The National Security Council did not deny the Atlantic report. Spokesman Brian Hughes told the BBC: "At this time, the message thread that was reported appears to be authentic. "We are reviewing how an inadvertent number was added to the chain. "The thread is a demonstration of the deep and thoughtful policy co-ordination between senior officials."
  18. Here's a gift link to the article https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2025/03/trump-administration-accidentally-texted-me-its-war-plans/682151/?gift=J_CNpt7Ar1nKEXqJWVh1ulEUSzqbExa4Kxm41rX0EQA&utm_source=copy-link&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=share
  19. Yeah they're looking to punish Columbia
  20. This should be a DT thread - this is a historically notable fuck up by SecDef
  21. They've been popping up all over Georgetown and Round Rock
  22. I mean, they showed up with armed cops and threatened to arrest everyone. The judge specifically criticized DOGE for using force and bringing guns to unlawfully remove them. But nobody wants to get into a firefight with the fucking feds. Because they hold the monopoly on state sanctioned violence. And Elon gets to decide where and why they're deployed. And if you'll recall back to the halcyon summer of 2020, trump LOVES to deploy unmarked, masked, and heavily armed cops to put down protests he doesn't like. What elon is doing is the kid gloves version of what historically is next to come
  23. Like USIP, which is funded via legislation and got shut down by elons goons last week? https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/trump-administration/us-institute-peace-sues-block-doge-takeover-force-rcna197036 Yeah that would really kick off a shit storm. Judges will get mad at them and everything and then nothing is going to happen. And anyone who thinks that's a constitutional crisis gets labeled with "trump dErAnGeMeNt SyNdRoMe" by people who are oddly fixated on pedophiles.
  24. Except musks bodyguards have been deputized as US Marshalls and have a State license for violence. So aside from his personal police force and ketamine melted brain he's harmless
