• therecord.media Martin Matishak February 28th, 2025 Exclusive: Hegseth orders Cyber Command to stand down on Russia planning Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth last week ordered U.S. Cyber Command to stand down from all planning against Russia, including offensive digital actions, according to three people familiar with the matter. Hegseth gave the instruction to Cyber Command chief Gen. Timothy Haugh, who then informed the organization's outgoing director of operations, Marine Corps Maj. Gen. Ryan Heritage, of the new guidance, according to these people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the matter's sensitivity. The order does not apply to the National Security Agency, which Haugh also leads, or its signals intelligence work targeting Russia, the sources said. While the full scope of Hegseth's directive to the command remains unclear, it is more evidence of the White Halico's efforte to normalize ties with

from a von Trapp family member
Francoise von Trapp 20h • © • .. My friends often wonder why I roll my eyes whenever they send me 'Sound of Music' references. They tell me - "it's such a great movie! You're famous!" What they don't get is that the true story is a far cry from the lighthearted musical, in which my father's family escapes the Nazis by hiding in a convent and then climbing over the mountain into Switzerland. In reality, they put on their hiking clothes and caught the last train to Italy before the borders closed for a proposed "hiking holiday". They were very, very lucky to have Italian passports - as my grandfather, Georg, was born in Zadar - then a part Italy, making them Italian citizens. They spent some time in the Netherlands before sailing on the American Farmer out of Southampton for the U.S., with a sponsor and a singing contract for a U.S. tour. They had very little money. Real Nazis were not bumbling fools who could be outsmarted by some clever nuns. They we're dangerous killers. My family was lucky to get out alive. Have you ever been to Dachau, a town near Munich that was the location of a Nazi concentration camp during the time of the holocaust? I have. It's easily accessible by train and bus. The camp, now a museum, sits right on the edge of a residential community. Only a fence separates it from a street with homes on it. Before I went there, I thought it must be all by itself, way out in the country. Inside the compound, the camp is eerily quiet. There are no signs of life. No birdsong. The camp was built to house 6,000 people. By the time it was liberated by U.S. soldiers at the end of WWil, there were 60K people being housed there in squalid conditions. It was a work camp, not a death camp like Auschwitz. But it still had a gas chamber used to kill those who were too weak to work or who had committed some violation, or simply to make room for more prisoners. When you walk around Dachau and imagine all the atrocities that took place there and the proximity of the neighborhoods outside the walls, it is impossible to believe that the residents of Dachau did not know what was happening there - despite what the records say. From second floor rooms, you could have seen over the wall. When the crematorium was operating, you could smell the burning flesh. How could they NOT know? They were either in denial or lived in fear for their own lives. Don't be mistaken to think the Nazis were only after Jews. Inmates included homosexuals, Catholics, Roma gypsies, anyone who did not fit the ideal of the Aryan race, as well as intellectuals who dared question the motivation of the Nazis. Physically and mentally disabled people were rounded up and sent to the death camps, as they could not be of service at places like Dachau.* Francoise von Trapp 20h • G .. • While walking through the museum and reading all the stories, I realized that Dachau's proximity to Salzburg made it the location my family would have been shipped to if they had not left on that train to Italy. Make no mistake, they would have been arrested - my grandfather for refusing a position to oversee a Nazi submarine base in the Adriatic, my father for declining an offer to run a department in one of Vienna's main hospitals, and the family for refusing an invitation to sing at Hitler's birthday. As my grandmother Maria wrote in her book, quoting my grandfather, "One does not say no three times to Hitler." If they had gone to Dachau, would they have been among the survivors when it was liberated in 1945? Doubtful, as they left in 1938. There would have been no musical career, no Sound of Music, and certainly no me. If you think this can't happen again and, in the USA, think again. There are clear indicators that recent actions taken by Trump and Elon Musk mirror those of Adolf Hitler when he took over Germany. Musk's comments and actions demonstrate that he supports the far right - as evidenced by his Nazi salute and also his investment and promotion of Germany's far-right AfD party. He seems to believe that as the richest man in the world, he is above the rule of law and the US constitution. And then there is yesterday's news that Marco Rubio and Donald Trump are considering El Salvador's offer to house not only deportees, but U.S. citizens convicted of crimes in its new detention camp built to hold 40K inmates. Please don't turn a blind eye to what's happening right over that wall by writing this off as "posturing". If you voted for Trump because you didn't agree with the policies of the Harris Administration, or you were concerned about rising food prices, or the fentanyl crisis, or abortion laws, or immigration, or DEl initiatives, or gay marriage and transgender rights; or that you believed him when he said he wasn't affiliated with Project 25, or whatever he did that convinced you to vote for him, it's not too late for you to help stop what's going on. Because it's wrong and our democracy IS at stake. The Democrats in Congress are already mobilizing. Please, please contact your Republican Congresspeople and get them to mobilize too. Post Script: I just changed the status of this post to Public - so feel free to share this with your followers if you so choose! Thanks for reading. *Just added a correction above: the mentally ill and disabled were not actually sent to Dachau, a work camp. They were sent to death camps.

from the threads account of @gamelawkate.bsky.social

fucking disturbing.
a lot of things have pushed the boundaries of credulity the past 16 days. but this is willfully and knowingly obstructionist and i can’t believe some type of alert or alarm didn’t just go off on everyone’s phones.
emergency
gamelawkate 6h DOGE is migrating from being under the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to being under the Executive Office of the President. This seems like nothing news. But it's actually deeply problematic. Here's my perspective on why as an attorney: Under the OMB, DOGE is subject to the Freedom of Information Act, which basically creates transparency by allowing the public to get information about government agencies--what they're doing, what they're saying, etc. But under the EOP, Musk and DOGE could be SHIELDED from FOIA request obligations under the Presidential Records Act. That would mean records wouldn't be available until after Trump's term ends. + gamelawkate 6h So Musk and DOGE are looking to get taxpayer records, among SO MANY other things, without being subject to scrutiny and public transparency. For as long as Trump is in office. Which, oh right, didn't Rep. Ogles just propose a change to allow him to serve a 3rd term?? So for those keeping track: - One party controls the executive, legislative, and judicial branches - The govt simultaneously is acquiring/ secretly reviewing massive amounts of data on its citizens (like the TikTok data deal and now the taxpayers data) with minimal transparency - The party that controls ALL THREE BRANCHES still insists that the OTHER party needs to be censored/silenced due to its alleged propaganda gamelawkate 6h •.• - That party ALSO rebalanced press access to the freaking PENTAGON so that only supportive media is present - That party is firing prosecutors who previously handled the cases against the insurrectionists - That party is classifying trans and nonbinary people (overwhelmingly left leaning) as unfit for military service - That party is ensuring that marginalized people will have less power by eliminating DEI programs designed to offset against MAJOR existing imbalances ••• -That party is preventing alternative perspectives and viewpoints from being taught to future generations - That party is hiding studies by delisting them from govt websites - None of the checks and balances that should stop this from happening apply because the same party overwhelmingly controls every branch at once. Can you see it yet? This is a coup. Musk getting individual data is TERRIFYING. gamelawkate 5h * We are seeing DOGE looking to hide what it is doing from the public eye while gathering info about everyone. While people who would sound the alarm are being taken out of positions to do so, while military and prosecutorial power is being shifted right, while centrist and leftist views are being treated as propaganda and marginalized groups are being treated as less qualified and mentally ill. This is an incredibly dangerous situation.
