🧵 THREAD: A federal whistleblower just dropped one of the most disturbing cybersecurity disclosures I’ve ever read. He's saying DOGE came in, data went out, and Russians started attempting logins with new valid DOGE passwords Media's coverage wasn't detailed enough so I dug into his testimony:

I love all the nest building activity at this time of year. This House Wren is collecting grass to line the tree hole that will be its nest. 🌎 Northern California #birds #photography #birdphotography #birding

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Under what cruel, benighted theory is it now USDoE policy to teach schoolchildren using Racial Purity, Inequity and Exclusion? (RaPIE)

These aren't tariffs. They are a horse's head in the bed of (almost) every world government and business leader.
