intercepted a message for an airline- "THIS IS INTERESTING... I ASKED 862 WHERE OFFSET TOOK PLACE .. IT WAS BETWEEN TAIWAN AND JAPAN AND.... ATC SAID: THE CHINESE NAVY AND JAPAN NAVY WERE GOING AFTER EACH OTHER ON GUARD (AS AN EXERCISE, OF COURSE)"

The story of a dipshit named dudek, elevated to acting head of the SSA and how he gave away access to the highest bidder. (Musk) democracyforward.org/wp-content/u...

NEW: A source tells me that response teams for FEMA set to deploy to the South Carolina wildfires are unable to travel because their government issued travel cards have had their limits reduced to $1. FEMA response team cards were supposed to be exempt.

It's time to call it. AI is built on a house of cards of intellectual property violations starting with Facebook which is starting to look a lot like a crime scene as held back discovery documents begin to be compelled and unsealed in court. /1

Amateur Radio on Trump's Muskrat Social Security Revelations: In the same breath, talking about how the government took back the social security because she died. Some folks are allegedly hiding dead bodies to get the checks. "I'm not a smart man" Yeah bud, You didn't have to tell me.

7188 hole in the wall net- Lots of dudes just ragchewing.
