Microsoft’s seemingly straightforward commitment to helping the U.S. government was, in fact, a calculated business maneuver designed to bring in billions in new revenue, box out competitors and tighten the company’s grip on federal business.

Microsoft's "Free" Plan to Upgrade Government Cybersecurity Was Designed to Box Out Competitors and Drive Profits, Insiders Say
When the White House welcomed Microsoft’s offer of $150 million in tech services, it helped the world’s largest software provider tighten its grip on federal business and freeze out competitors.

This is the absolute truth folks! I thought we dodged a bullet when TFG didn't nominate Kash for SecDef but having him run the FBI means that law as we know it now will no longer exist if he's confirmed....
If the #GOP confirms Kash Patel and Pete Hegseth, we’ll know we no longer have a country that embraces civility, professionalism, common decency.

We know the lunatics elected a pathological liar, but if the Senate throws in behind him?

Game, set, match.

@thekrebscycle.bsky.social please confirm from where you sit that this election was totally legit with no direct outside impact. Obviously, outside forces influenced the election with social media but did they play a more direct role or was this election the most secure election of all time?

Thx

Once SCOTUS decided to look the other way reference Trumps criminal activity the door has been opened wide for lethal corruption to go unchecked in America. SCOTUS is compromised.

Thats the thing tho, there was no occurrences. It started with a lady being unable to find her pet, and blamed it on a Haitian because of Xenophobia. She later found that said pet, alive, in her basement.

A jury listened and decided. That is how justice is served. P.s. There are 26 other women who have accused the self-avowed pussy grabber. I believe Donold and his accusers.

Your boy is a beta. And, a dumb one.

They have to be vetted. The senate needs to say no to Kennedy he would kill us all. No to the defense pick, no to Tulsi, no to FBI. He wants to destroy our country and now he owes Musk and Putin buckle up

Hard to escape the conclusion that this is a morally bankrupt country of lazy racist dipshits who reject lucid adult government whenever possible.

I served as a US ambassador and know hundreds of others

Never met one before who hired a prostitute to seduce their brother-in-law or sent a videotape of the encounter to their sister

Or who committed 18 felonies & was pardoned by another in-law

I guess the job qualifications are changing…

It looks like the GOP will start off 2025 with the smallest House majority in over a century. If just ONE Republican defects, Democrats will be able to kill a bill.

GOP infighting is going to be fun to watch.

Here's a graphic explaining how the Big Lie was seeded and mobilized into the events of January 6, 2021 through a kind of "participatory disinformation" process. Trump's "war on drugs" refrain could catalyze a similar kind of participatory propaganda and mobilization cycle.
