FCC scrapping telecom security regs: https://www.cybersecuritydive.com/news/fcc-cybersecurity-telecommunications-carriers-brendan-carr-eliminate-rules/804259/

This is pure insanity, and will make us much less safe. Salt Typhoon, you might recall, was a recent direct attack on US telecom infrastructure, probably by China, and probably exploiting "lawful access" wiretapping interfaces.

I testified on this in Congress earlier this year: https://oversight.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Blaze-Written-Testimony.pdf

Trump’s insurrection strategy.

https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/october-30-2025

The Epstein files must hold a dead body somewhere. Trump goes to insurrection when squeezed.

“The establishment of a domestic quick reaction force to quell civil disturbances at a time when there are no civil disturbances that can’t be handled easily by existing law enforcement suggests the administration is expecting those conditions to change”

"Countries that slide from democracy toward autocracy tend to follow similar patterns. To measure what is happening in the United States, the Times editorial board has compiled a list of 12 markers of democratic erosion, with help from scholars who have studied this phenomenon. The sobering reality is that the United States has regressed, to different degrees, on all 12.”
