It's weird how the federal government is constantly being hacked after DOGE gutted the government's cybersecurity agencies.

Way too close, but thankfully someone was paying attention and alerted the police before this got really bad. They reportedly tried to call RAF Fairford to report 3 suspicious vans, but couldn’t get an answer from the base.

It is unconditional for the President to ban CNN, MS NOW & Politico from the White House under the First and Fifth Amendments. A President cannot pull press passes just because he doesn't like the coverage. THIS IS THE BEHAVIOR OF A FASCIST DICTATOR.
