BREAKING: The USDA has confirmed five additional dairy herds in California have tested positive for the virus, raising the total to 732. Currently, 74% of the state's dairy herds are infected with H5N1.

If any of our former NATO or Five Eyes allies have intelligence data and assessments, which surely they must, about the background of the leader of their new strategic adversary, the United States, now is as good a time as any to release them, subject to protection of methods and sources, of course.

Wise man…

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

My God. It will be a long time before countries rely on the US or Musk again. www.reuters.com/business/us-...

House Republicans who were willing to hold town halls back home this week got an earful.

History is replete with examples of politically motivated military purges leading to catastrophic consequences. www.thebulwark.com/p/dont-purge...

Holy crap. At his town hall last night, Rep. Rich McCormick compared *his own constituents* who asked him tough and fair questions to January 6 insurrectionists
