Fellow NSA - National Security Agency veterans. Look at what’s happened at the National Cryptologic Museum. They covered up with brown paper the photos of Women in American Cryptology. All in response to President Trump’s anti-diversity executive order.

Senator Duckworth said Pete Hegseth is “just not qualified.” Then went on to say Republicans are “trying to shove through his confirmation as quickly as possible, before more news can break of more allegations.” It “speaks to how unfit he is.”

More cases of H5N1 are occurring in the United States than in any other country. Pausing our health communications at a time when states are scrambling to contain this virus is dangerously misguided. This will make America less healthy and will worsen the virus’s economic tolls.
NEW: The Trump administration has instructed federal health agencies to pause all external communications, such as health advisories, weekly scientific reports, updates to websites, social media posts, according to officials and others familiar. Our story.

Trump officials pause health agencies’ communications, citing review
The agencies are charged with making decisions that touch the lives of every American and are the source of crucial information to health-care providers.

Chris has it exactly right:

a. Cannon has no jurisdiction because of the appeal of the dismissal. She has no power to do jack shit in this case now.

b. She’s got no business addressing the 1/6 report not only because of (a) but because that’s totally separate from the case she dismissed.

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.
