The government’s statement is a flex, not a confession of error. The important elements of the flex are these: 1. We send enemies to brutal foreign labor camps. 2. We decide who enemies are. 3. We may decide you are an enemy based on a secret informant, or our view of your tattoos. /1

It’d be interesting to know what Jeffery Goldberg shows as his own name in his Signal profile. He sees his own membership in the group as “You,” but the other members of the group would see whatever name he has in his profile. We know it’s something with the initials J and G.

Jeffrey Goldberg thinking he was being pranked and then realizing he was actually just in the war plans group chat is such a good microcosm of how it feels to be alive right now, everything seems fake until you realize it’s actually real and incredibly stupid

Trump once called crypto a “scam”. Now he’s creating a “strategic crypto reserve” with Bitcoin, Ether, XRP, Solana, and Cardano. This is will end as the biggest grift ever—another scheme where taxpayers end up bailing out billionaires for their risky bets.

That “dumb” part is going to make Trump blow a gasket. There’s nothing he’s more insecure about than his intellect.
