Republicans are absolutely abysmal at running the economy! Every Republican president for the last 40 years has given us a recession, and every Democrat has dug us out of those recessions. Spread the word: Republicans suck at the economy! #BlueWaveIn20Days

Every month, thousands of working class New Yorkers use Western Union to send money to loved ones. Now Western Union wants to buy its top competitor, Intermex, so it can jack up remittance fees and squeeze families even more. Families shouldn’t pay the price for corporate monopolies.

AsyncRAT Malware Campaign Abuses Cloudflare Free Tier and Python to Evade Detection
Introduction: Trusted Services Turned Into Weapons AsyncRAT continues to evolve as one of the most adaptable and dangerous remote access trojans in active circulation. In the campaign analyzed here, threat actors demonstrate a clear shift toward abusing trusted cloud infrastructure and legitimate software ecosystems to hide malicious intent. By leveraging Cloudflare’s free-tier tunneling services and official Python distributions, attackers successfully blur the line between normal enterprise activity and covert malware operations.

U.S. Seizure of $14 Billion in Bitcoin: A Landmark in Cybercrime Enforcement
The seizure of 14 billion dollars in Bitcoin by U.S. investigators marks a significant milestone in the fight against cybercrime. This operation underscores the growing capabilities of law enforcement in tracking and seizing illicit cryptocurrency funds, sending a strong warning to cybercriminals who rely on digital currencies for their operations. The transparency of blockchain technology, combined with advanced forensic tools, has enabled authorities to trace and confiscate these funds effectively. For the cryptocurrency industry, this development is largely positive. It demonstrates that illicit activities can be identified and addressed, which may enhance trust among investors and users. This could lead to greater adoption and legitimacy for cryptocurrencies as a whole. From a cybersecurity perspective, this operation highlights the critical role of blockchain forensics and the importance of collaboration between law enforcement agencies and cybersecurity firms. It serves as a reminder that cybercriminals are not immune to detection and prosecution, even when using cryptocurrencies. For cybersecurity professionals, this event underscores the need for continuous investment in advanced technologies and proactive measures to combat cybercrime. It also emphasizes the importance of staying updated with the latest developments in blockchain forensics and cybersecurity practices. In conclusion, the seizure of 14 billion dollars in Bitcoin is a landmark achievement in cybercrime enforcement. It serves as a deterrent to cybercriminals and a positive development for the cryptocurrency industry, while also highlighting the importance of advanced cybersecurity measures and collaboration in the fight against cybercrime.

Judge Nelson, a Trump appointee, amps up his campaign for a Supreme Court seat with a concurrence asserting that the president can, in effect, deploy the National Guard for any reason, regardless of statutory restrictions, because his decision is unreviewable. An astoundingly dangerous argument.
I concur in the Per Curiam order which concludes that the government is likely
to succeed on the merits of its claim that the President’s assessment reflects a
colorable assessment of the facts and law to sustain his designation under 10
U.S.C. § 12406(3). Normally, for a stay pending appeal, that would be enough. But
given that these legal issues are moving quickly, I write separately to emphasize four
points. First, under current Supreme Court precedent, presidential determinations
under § 12406 are not reviewable by federal courts. Second, Plaintiffs have serious
standing issues because they only seek injunctive relief that this court lacks the
power to issue and Plaintiffs lack an injury in fact. Third, while the Per Curiam order
takes a more fact bound approach to the issues presented, the President’s
determination under § 12406(3) and § 12406(2) are bolstered by the history and
tradition of the early Militia Acts. Fourth, the likely lawfulness of the President’s
determination under § 12406 is bolstered by the executive’s proportionate response
to the events in Portland
