The Justice Deptās theory of the caseā that the group that single-handedly disassembled the Ku Klux Klan defrauded its donors by concealing that it was using paid informant to do that work and moreā has about as much merit as the now-dismissed charges against Jim Comey.

A Christian nationalist menās conference will feature speakers like Mark Driscoll, Josh Howerton, & Graham Allen who have drawn criticism for disparaging comments about women. Organizers are promoting it as a rally for ābiblical manhoodā tied to political influence.

The tragic tale of the USS #Leviathan, a troopship sailing between the US and France, is just one example of the horrors endured during this unprecedented #flu outbreak. 2/2 www.thehistoryreader.com/world-histor...
In three successive waves, from spring 1918 to summer 1919, the āSpanish fluā pandemic killed an estimated 100 million people worldwide. By 1919, Spanish flu was responsible for the deaths of 500,000 people in the United States, five times its total military fatalities in the war. 1/2
Mount Rainier rises above the far shoreline beyond calm water, with soft pink evening alpenglow lighting the snow-covered upper slopes. Layers of lavender and gray clouds stretch across the sky, while dark trees and scattered waterfront homes form a deep blue band below the mountain. The smooth water in the foreground reflects the cool tones of the scene with a faint hint of pink. The photo feels calm, quiet, and gently luminous.
While I was at the Lake Washington this week, Mount Rainier caught my eye in this beautiful evening light. The pastel sky and quiet reflection gave the whole scene a peaceful feel.
Sen. Jack Reed to Warsh as he dodges questions about divesting his assets: "Excuse me. I must commend you on the way you can circularly go around questions and not answer them. It's a skill. Unfortunately it's not a good skill for the chairman of the Fed."

A Maine air carrier was forced to stop delivering mail today. USPS owes them $388,000 and hasn't paid since March.
Trump is breaking the Post Office. Rural Maine pays the price. #mepolitics
NOT SO FUN FACTāhalf of all U.S. war casualties during WWI were due to influenza. TodayāTrumpās War Secretary remove the flu vaccine requirement for all U.S. military. Plus, bragging about this to all enemies is just absolute idiocy. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
ELIZABETH WARREN: Did Donald Trump lose the 2020 election?
KEVIN WARSH: Uhm, we try to keep politics if I'm confirmed out of the Federal Reserve
WARREN: I'm just asking a factual question
WARSH: I believe this body certified the election
WARREN: That's not the question I'm asking
Simple rule: the Senate should not confirm any appointee to any post who canāt say clearly who legitimately won the 2020 presidential election. Not just who was āinstalledā, but who won the vote and the electoral college.
Maga Inc, the main political fundraising group supporting Donald Trump, has amassed a nearly $350mn war chest, an unprecedented haul for the presidentās allies to defend the Republican Partyās control of Congress in Novemberās midterm elections. It all comes from Trump's tech bro friends.
ICE has been using a Navy logistics contract to outfit detention warehouses with minimal oversight. New documents show it may want its own construction contracting vehicle ā one that's faster and less transparent.

Warren does at one point single out Epstein, but the full question is nuts: Warsh didnāt disclose $100 million hidden behind entities he owns, so are any of those assets owned by the Trump family or the Chinese government, have any of them facilitated money laundering, any set up by Jeffrey Epstein?
Hereās the ad promoting the new Peter Thiel backed startup, Objection, where AI will allegedly determine the veracity of journalistsā claims. It looks like they took the ad down, but I screen grabbed it when I could still access it from a QT by right wing Christian investor Nate Fischer. 1/

Having just read @kevinmkruse.bsky.socialās One Nation Under God, this seems just a bit on the nose.
We must require ALL data centers and other extremely large corporate users of electricity to generate their own electricity at their own expense If we don't do this, we are either idiots and/or masochists.
There's also a revolving door worth flagging. David Venturella, who recently joined ICE after leaving GEO Group, is now leading the division that oversees detention contracts while GEO bids on warehouse work. Attorney General Pam Bondi is a former GEO lobbyist.
Researchers warn of severe long-term damage to the brain after Covid following new study

Mike Bickle is backāthree years after credible abuse allegations rocked IHOPKC, with supporters now promoting a "global fast" to restore him.
But whistleblowers and survivor advocates question whether thereās been real repentance or just a calculated return to power.

Since 2024 Below a list of scientists with ties to advanced research who have disappeared or died. Where are our missing scientists? Why have some died? Why hasnāt this potential threat received serious attention?

Remember that 184 journalists & media personalities have died in Palestina since October 7, 2024.
Worldwide, 67 journalists have been killed in 2025. Journalists, teachers and scientists are always the first victims as they uphold & represent the Truth. Stay Safe while showing us the Truth!
In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.
So honored to share this award with my good friend and #ScienceUnderSiege co-author @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social.
