Washington Post got their hands on internal documents from DOGE showing the entire plan to implement resegregation. They're going to purge minorities from government by calling them DEI.

VADM stands for Vizeadmiral (Vice Admiral), just to be clear for people who are not familiar with this stuff and might think that it's his name. He served in the now disfunct fast attack craft flotilla during his career, whose main operating ground was the Baltic Sea.

Since yesterday a Swedish warship, likely a VISBY stealth corvette is showing flag south of Sweden.
Swedish navy is shy on the AIS, so hard to say if anything else than having the transponder on is unusual.
Also, can't say certain ship or even class, cos they switch MMSi-number all the time.

The shadow ship 'Jazz' broke down three times on its journey from Russia towards the North Sea - and all three times were above or in the close vicinity of undersea cables, including the C-Lion 1. Several defense analysts say this is beyond unusual and suspect. The ship is now in Skagen, Denmark.
