I have been meaning to do this ever since we mapped all cybersecurity products to NIST CSF 2.0. Here, for the first time ever, is a count of products per NIST Subcategory. stiennon.substack.com/p/mapping-11...

I was curious about the mechanics of tariffs. How and where are they deployed? Who collects the money? What if a truck is in line at the border when they are imposed? Here is how it works. 1. Somehow the CBP (Customs and Border Patrol) gets a new set of tariff rules.

Detroit has its architectural gems. This one is on the market originally built in 1925 (celebrating its 100-yr birthday!) for Alma & Alfred Fisher, part owners of Fisher Body Co. and whose family went on to finance Detroit's well-known (my fav) Fisher Building in 1928. www.zillow.com/homedetails/...

OK, the report is now fully in major media. Media must get an extensive White House response; Congress must investigate (even if it's a minority report); DOJ and the FBI must investigate; the CIA must issue a report on what it knew about this and when.
