Gavin Newsom's Troll Wars as a Check against "Usurpation or Wanton Tyranny" - emptywheel
Gavin Newsom's legal challenge to Donald Trump's invasion of California has gotten most of the press attention. But he has also been waging a pretty funny trolling challenge as well.

They're stacking his audiences for these.
A text reads: 

1215- everyone must be seated in the bleachers

Notes:
- Soldiers sitting in the bleachers are to be fit and not look fat.

-Soldiers in the bleachers will not be allowed to have water so they must make sure they hydrate properly prior.

-No colored patches.

-if any soldiers have political views that are in opposition to the current administration and they don't want to be in the audience then they need to speak with their leadership and get swapped out. Basically they don't want soldiers in the audience Rolling their eyes or shaking their head in disagreement etc.

Oliver Darcy tried to ask Jake Tapper about whether his outrage and his journalistic lessons about senility should be applied to the current babbling president and not just to Biden recriminations, and Tapper couldn't or wouldn't even consider engaging with the question
Screenshot of Q&A text:

[Bold type] In the wake of the book, do you think journalists should feel more empowered to question the mental acuity of the sitting president? How should they apply this to Donald Trump, who is also set to turn 80 while in office? [Bold type ends]

American presidents have been misleading the public about their health for literally centuries. It got tougher to do in the TV age, but it continued throughout [John F. Kennedy], [Ronald] Reagan, and now Biden. President [Donald] Trump has barely released any actual health records, as opposed to summaries. Right now health records being released is not required by law, and there is nothing requiring those records to be 100% factual. Congress should pass a law mandating all future presidents to have to be transparent and honest about these issues.

As you read about Trump giving away the farm to the Gulf nations that bribe him, remember that we still don't know what happened to all the docs he had at Mar-a-Lago. He flew some away on June 3, 2023, and managed to hide others from the feckless search the FBI did, then came back for them.

Trump is already using his stablecoin to get a cut of a $2 BILLION deal with a shady UAE fund. The Senate will vote on the GENIUS Act, a crypto bill which would make the President's grift even easier. If we don't fix that problem, no Senator should vote for it.

National Review writer Mark Antonio Wright minces no words: Hegseth must go. 🔥🔥 Let’s be sure to signal boost (no pun intended) conservatives who are able to see what’s in front of their nose! www.nationalreview.com/corner/yes-p...
I admit that I had held out some hope over the last few days that I would learn that Goldberg's initial reporting that the secretary of defense texted information that "contained operational details of forthcoming strikes on Yemen, including information about targets, weapons the U.S. would be deploying, and attack sequencing" over an insecure, unauthorized network was incorrect. The defense secretary and the White House certainly pushed back on Goldberg's claim.
But don't let anyone lie to you: Information about the timing of forthcoming U.S. military operations is prima facie classified Top Secret.
Information regarding high-value targets, weapons systems, military unit movements, even whether we think that we have Operational Security - OPSEC - in advance of a military operation is prima facie classified.Our secretary of defense texted out the no-kidding Time on Target! That would, to say the least, be useful information for anyone manning enemy air defense batteries.
These are extremely sensitive topics that should never be discussed outside of the appropriate venue and only with those with need-to-know.
Do not get misled by the idea that by somehow not attaching a PDF stamped "CLASSIFIED TOP SECRET," Hegseth didn't do anything wrong here. Hegseth's texts per born classified the moment he wrote them. This information by its very existence and by its definition was classified the moment Hegseth started tapping on his iPhone.It is inconceivable to me that any other defense secretary would survive such an incredible lack of judgment. Whatever his other qualities, this one shouldn't either.
Pete Hegseth foolishly placed highly sensitive national defense information about an impending U.S. military action on a non-secure system that was already compromised. Then he spent several days obfuscating and lying about it.
Again: The question now hangs over this administration: Will there be accountability under Trump - or does the buck stop nowhere?
