Reports from amateur radio (7143.00)- couple of good ole boys talking about how there won't be anything on the shelves in a week, and praying that food prices don't skyrocket.

In the midst of a mild existential crisis of how i can do security, while *gestures wildly* is happening. I discovered the one native tea that grows in america and has caffeine, yaopon holly. So what did I do? I went out back and harvested some and made my own tea w/ it. cc @elcannibal.bsky.social

Great thread on this hearing.
The level of catch 22 BS from the DOJ is astonishing.
If I’m getting this right their position is that individual habeas cases have to be filed in right jurisdiction for each person. But they don’t have to tell us where anyone is held, so good luck with that.

This is a story about naked ambition disguising itself as incompetence.Hegseth made sure that there was a story beyond just the boring story of bombing houthis- he's making sure that he gets screen time,which is ultimately all that this administration cares about. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

What looks like the first photos of China’s ‘invasion barges’ we first reported in naval news recently www.navalnews.com/naval-news/2...
The front barge (self propelled) is the smallest type, some are twice this size

Bulletproof windows, but not against the might of some plastic beads
In delightful Mardi Gras news, a couple of Cybertrucks paraded with US flags in one of the more racist krewes.
After being booed and relentlessly pelted with plastic beads by spectators, the windshields and windows were broken and they had to leave the parade early.

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.
