Hegseth punishing Senator Kelly for his "crime" of reminding servicemembers that they're bound by UCMJ & US Constitution—and must refuse to act on illegal orders—is more evidence that Trump and Hegseth know they're issuing illegal orders and will not tolerate dissension. This is fascism in 2026 USA.

We are very close to a near cure for two of the highest-mortality cancers we know: glioblastoma and pancreatic cancer. These are both mRNA based treatments which are losing their funding during stage I and II trials. Thousands will die needlessly because of this motherfucker and his lies.

NEW: I helped Brian Krebs trace the background of one of Elon Musk's top loyalists, Branden Spikes, head of IT at X, who spent 2 mo at DOGE. Spikes and his ex-wife were involved with Russian diaspora websites and groups linked to pro-Kremlin KSORS players, Russian state media while he was at SpaceX.

DOGE Coup Math just doesn’t add up!

They want to end $4 billion in fed. government spending on the U.S. National Parks System. But parks & small, local businesses take in $50 billion in tourist dollars.

I knew this would happen, but it's still surreal to hear another nation's leader talk to us in a televised address the way US presidents have historically spoken to the citizens of countries led by dictators and despots.
Trudeau: "I want to speak first directly to the American people. We don't want this. We want to work with you as a friend and ally. We don't want to see you hurt either. But your government has chosen to do this to you. As of this morning, markets are down and inflation is set to rise dramatically."

1. The Trump administration has crippled cancer and Alzheimer's research by imposing a freeze on all government credit cards at NIH.

An NIH source with direct knowledge tell Popular Information that scientific research has ground to halt because necessary supplies can no longer be purchased.

Trump’s and Musk’s Defense Secretary, Hegseth, pulled U.S. Cyber Command back from Russia ops. #CISA and #CYBERCOM were told to stop tracking all Russian cyber activity. This is just one of many data points. The signal-to-noise ratio shifted—patterns in the lattice don’t lie. Those who know, know.

Keep sharing this because it is vital to understanding this moment.

Russia has been planning this coup for a long time. Putin is finally getting his revenge for the USSR's collapse. It was always personal for him. As Nikita Khrushchev said in 1956: “We will take America without firing a shot. We do not have to invade the U.S. We will destroy you from within”.

67 fake bomb threats on Election Day 2024.

Almost all of them targeting heavily Democratic cities — which had lower turnout than in 2020.

Many of the threats were clearly traced to Russia.

And the mainstream media and establishment have somehow COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN.
