Today the Netanyahu regime once again unilaterally broke the ceasefire, bombed Gaza, and killed at least 112 more Palestinian civilians with the majority being women and children.
And in response the US Senate voted 85-15 to send Netanyahu more bombs to drop on Palestinians.
This is genocide.

There’s a major shift in U.S. cybersecurity policy. A recent CISA memo removed Russia from its list of priorities, focusing instead on China and local systems. Analysts were told not to track Russian cyber threats.

Guess who’s getting a new FAA contract to help privatize air safety?
Elon Musk. He’s cutting the FAA and everything else in government — and carving it off for himself.
THE WHOLE THING IS A MONEY GRAB

UNO’s $1 Billion Boost to Nebraska:
For every $1 the state invests in the University of Nebraska, we generate $10 in economic activity.
UNO’s operations directly support 4,575 jobs, with an additional 3,799 jobs created through indirects.
Unfortunately our governor has been cutting the budget.

So the billionaire president’s multi-billionaire sugar daddy had his feelings hurt by the head of the FAA, so the billionaire president fired the head of the FAA — now there’s no one in charge of airline safety, and we have our first commercial airline crash in 16 years? Got it.
