The former head of Kazakhstan’s intelligence service recently claimed that Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987, when the 40-year-old real-estate mogul first visited Moscow. This now makes a total of three KGB agents—located in different places and speaking at different times—who agree on that.

BREAKING: Mexican President Sheinbaum argues that if cartels are deemed terrorist orgs, then the suppliers of weapons—over 74% of which come FROM the U.S.—should ALSO face accountability for enabling terrorism.
As a result, Mexico is expanding its lawsuit targeting U.S gun manufacturers. 🇲🇽

It seems there was a dinner at the WH where a military choir serenaded the orange turd and his guest with a rendition of One Day More from Les Miserables, and the ignorant fools loved it. This is what happens when you don’t read. People mock you to your face. 😹

I’m a part time librarian and I just want to echo what I’ve seen other librarians say recently: there is a HUGE uptick in requests for social justice, climate justice, abolition, history, etc books and I just want to say nobody is giving up the fight. If anything people are fighting harder #library

Anyone out there ever work in Treasury Payments? I'm curious if this is actually the case:
The Secure Payment System (SPS) employs a strict separation of duties as a core security measure.
The point of the ? Is to know how many people are required to approve a payment and where are they located

The FAA is facing its first major aviation disaster in 16 years without a leader because Elon Musk helped push him out. The former FAA administrator stepped down on Jan. 20th after Musk called on him to resign. Musk was angry after the FAA fined SpaceX for failing to get approval for launch changes.

We currently do not have an FAA Administrator, because the previous one was forced out by the billionaire who got Trump elected and was given unchecked authority in return. He was forced out because he tried to fine the billionaire's space company for operating unsafely.
