This 1952 memo from the Pentagon UFO files is superb There is no point preparing for aliens ‘because no one of consequence is going to take this rubbish seriously unless it happens. At that point, our policy will be determined in the traditional manner of grand panic.’ 🤣 www.war.gov/medialink/uf...
There likely is nothing to be done at the moment to prepare for these possibilities (the only body of writing on the subject available in an emergency is science fiction), because no one of consequence is going to take this rubbish seriously unless it happens. At that point, our policy will be determined in the traditional manner of grand panic.

I went peepee in the potty today. Aced it. There was a sink and a tub and a trash can but I didn’t peepee in any of those. I used the potty. The part where you should lift the seat cover first is very easy. They say “which part do you pee in?” And I say “the water part.”

61 days into Donald Trump's war with Iran, the national average for a gallon of gas is now $4.30 — up 44.3%. That's ON TOP of higher prices for groceries, shipping, flights, and more. And the response from the Trump Administration and GOP Congress? Crickets.

Lots of details in this piece that have flown under the radar. According to DiGenova himself: (1) Bondi previously nixed his appointment to run the FL probe (2) Bondi was fired over Trump’s frustration w/ the slow pace of the case (3) Trump personally asked him to lead the investigation
= Menu
LAWFARE
DiGenova has also been willing to pull back the curtain on the palace intrigue surrounding his recent hiring: Just this month, in an interview with Rudy Giuliani, diGenova claimed that former Attorney General Pam Bondi was "singularly responsible for the delay and investigations into the lawfare against Donald Trump that's being run out of the...U.S. attorney's office in Miami and Ft. Pierce." Saying she had previously nixed his appointment to run the probe, diGenova insisted, "If she had not done that, we would have had indictments brought in the last two months."
DiGenova further suggested that Bondi had been fired over the president's frustration with the slow pace of the Miami probe."The president's conversation with her yesterday coming back from the Supreme Court was not pleasant," he said, referring to the conversation in which Trump reportedly fired Bondi. "The president was ripping mad about the fact that there was no progress on the lawfare investigation in Miami."
On April 20, the same day he was sworn in, diGenova appeared on WBAL Radio and said the president "personally asked" him to accept the role running what he called "the Russia hoax investigation." Later-sketching out the Grand Conspiracy in full—he noted "the historical significance of what happened in 2016, 2020 and 2024, where it's very evident...that there was a very brazen plot against a private citizen, and then a president, and then a post-president, and then a sitting president again, Donald Trump, to deny him his civil rights."

I've been led to understand from decades of US gun violence that there's a variable window of "too soon to politicize this" during which discussions of gun control are verboten. It doesn't seem to apply to advocacy of the illegal demolition of a White House wing to build a party room out of bribes.
