Scoop: The lone employee behind CISA's Pre-Ransomware Notification Initiative resigned on Friday rather than take a forced reassignment to FEMA.
CISA says PRNI will continue, but sources said David Stern's loss will be a major setback for it.

Thread. This is such a rookie document review error that anyone employed by a law firm who allowed this to happen would expect to be fired and/or lose their bar license.
All right people so literally I downloaded one of the government documents to Books on my iPad. I highlighted some text that was not redacted and it included some that was redacted and I copied it over to notes and I pasted it and you can see everything unredacted.

You may have heard that some of the Epstein files redactions have been broken. This is what happens when government lawyers don’t understand basic redaction security.
NSA standards require processing a document 25+ times to ensure redactions can’t be reversed. 🧵/2

Mercenaries tracking immigrants. Every day a new level of hell unlocks.
Erik Prince played a key role in pitching this plan earlier this year. This week, his company got a huge contract to help ICE track down immigrants.
Omniplex World Services, a subsidiary of his firm Constellis, received an initial order for $1.5 million on a contract worth up to $113.2 million.

WOW: The DOJ has DELETED an image from its release of the Epstein files that shows photos of Trump in a drawer.
Yesterday, we noted that this image — file 468 — likely slipped through the cracks while officials were attempting to hide materials pertaining to Trump.
Now, it’s gone.

Trump has now conducted 28 boat strikes, killing over 100 people.
Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.
He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.
This is a danger to us all.

The premise of US-based coverage of politics is underscored by this.
We're all supposed to be 100% in tune with white men's feelings. We're supposed to care about them at the expense of our own. We are supposed to live in fear of them getting upset. Treating their feelings as grenades that can go off at any time. They on the other hand do not need to care about ours.
