"The White House app covertly collects excessive user data and shares it with third-party trackers while sidestepping federal security rules, The Washington Sun’s Gavin J. Quinton reports. For example, the app includes scripts to monitor a user’s location several times per minute." - Washington Sun

Recently, Trump: • Offered voters $5K to vote MAGA • Threatened disaster aid over a Senate race • Repeated a disputed Ground Zero story • Suggested Democrats tried to kill him • Threatened to halt foreign trade • Used the Kennedy Center as leverage • Barred CNN, MS NOW & Politico from the WH

The Trump administration’s 90 percent success rate at SCOTUS during his 2nd term is a massive historical anomaly, far outpacing the historical baseline for past presidents.

MAJ Hegseth was never promoted to LTC. Now, as Secretary of Defense, he is firing senior flag officers for what appear to be political reasons, discarding decades of expertise and damaging military readiness. The most dangerous leaders are incompetent and overconfident. I fear MAJ Hegseth is both.

Kingsbarn ties to Trump are now relevant to the Yosemite land deal: Kingsbarn owner J. Pori donated to Trump’s campaign, Trump-linked PACs, and GOP committees in late 2024. Kingsbarn received $52M in financing from Hankey Capital, who provided Trump’s $175M appeal bond in his NY civil-fraud case.

Trump's lawyers threatened CAP with a $5B lawsuit unless it retracted its factual report on National Guard deployments. CAP refused. The report found the deployments had no measurable effect on crime. This is intimidation against a voice of truth. www.americanprogress.org/article/the-...

USPS finalized a rule handing federal law enforcement a list of everyone states planned to mail a ballot to, barcodes attached. Blocked in court, for now. Not a list of fraud suspects. A list of voters. Intimidation just needs people wondering if voting puts them on it.
