Change agent, systems thinker, maven of troll-stomping and MAGA mockery. A 7-year stint in the UK, a smidgeon of studying history, compounded with an MBA & a liberal education, have brewed in me a tolerance of everything but crime, deceit and nonsense.
The Ukrainians often have to fly slow planes to match the drones' speed to give themselves longer time on target. Not everybody has to fly a jet to defend Ukraine from the sky.
Dimko ZhluktenkoExclusive footage of Ukrainian Army Aviation shooting down Russian Gerbera kamikaze drone, most commonly used as fake target. Still, the explosion in the end is QUITE significant and even 5kg warhead could do significant damage.
We need more of this. Accountability, and public officials willing to enforce it.
The NeedlingToday Mayor Katie Wilson announced she’s already fired Seattle’s next police chief after he somehow teargassed Capitol Hill, deleted public records, hired someone to have an affair on the job with, and threatened to fight a reporter all before 9 a.m.

Jon CooperHow is Ken Paxton able to own at least 15 real estate properties worth around $9 million—including a $1 million property in Hawaii with an ocean view—on his government salary of $153,000 per year? Explain it to me like I’m five.
Ukrainians are mad at corruption in their military leadership, and the fact that Zelenskyy pushed out the man who was confronting it head-on. They want Fedorov reinstated as the Minister of Defense to complete the project, and because he has achieved spectacular improvements in UKR's capabilities.

Heads must roll for the fraud scheme behind the bogus Reflecting Pool rehab project. It's obviously an embezzlement scam from start to finish, and the cover-up is a conspiracy after the fact.
Ron FilipkowskiSo many sneering elitist journalists with snarky posts over the past months that the Reflecting Pool story was trivial. It was so trivial that the DC US Attny presented false evidence to a grand jury to indict an innocent man to please the President while they both lied about it.
For those familiar with propaganda and bad faith debate tactics, claiming that something is "undisputed" is called using "weasel words". It's an obviously false claim, since many are disputing it, and it's also a claim to be the arbiter of truth, rather than being willing to consider the evidence.
Mueller, She WroteI couldn't make this up if I tried. DOJ argues in a motion today that "It is undisputed that the fund is now not going forward." Sure, Jan. www.muellershewrote.com/p/new-90-min...
Rand Paul is a quack who stood up a Potemkin ophthalmology board to certify himself as an eye doctor. He is also a self-important blowhard with a malicious streak and no respect for the truth.
Thanh Neville, MD, MSHSI agree with @drsandman11.medsky.social: If you didn't look like this & doing everything you can to prevent people from dying during the pandemic, maybe think twice before judging Dr. Fauci.
The meteorically successful Mykhailo Fedorov was fired for crossing the old boys network in Ukraine's military leadership, bypassing their red tape to improve efficiency and evade corrupt schemes. It's no relief for them; his replacement is dealing with the problem. www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...
ADAPTIVE INDOMITABLE UKRAINE: Drapatyi Begins Reform of the UKR Armed Forces LeadershipJust back from a short vacation(48th wedding anni) and one of the first things I did, as I regularly do nowadays, was to check the Facebook page of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of…www.dailykos.comThe logical next step is to investigate how this fiasco came about, and find out that Trump illegally procured services with a no-bid contract at an exorbitant price, and got a buddy the deal. That's public corruption. Throw it in the hopper, because we're going to throw the book at this guy.
MeidasTouch🚨 BREAKING: The DOJ is moving to dismiss the indictment against David Hearn in the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool case and is admitting the damage was the result of a flawed, botched installation job, not vandalism.
So, it turns out that Trump's hand-picked pool boy was in way over his head in the Reflecting Pool remodeling project, and screwed it up royally. And everything Trump alleged about vandals and vandalism was a tissue of lies to shift the blame for his incompetent procurement/grift, and nothing more.
Mueller, She WroteBREAKING: Pirro has dismissed the case against Davey Hearn for vandalizing the reflecting pool, saying that there's no way vandals could have caused the damage.
I'd love to see criminal charges come out of this. Because interference in state elections is criminal.

Trump's negligently homicidal sabotage of the nation's COVID-19 response, which led to 100,000's of unnecessary deaths due to inability to access healthcare, missing supplies and disinformation that caused superspreader events, will never be forgotten. A rally even killed Republican Herman Cain.
Sherrilyn IfillThe Fauci hearing was a disgrace. Here are some reminders of how it really went down in 2020. Never forget.

janettes-999Gov. Abbott and his allies have long touted cheap electricity, no corporate income taxes, low state regulation, and weak local governments to attract businesses to TX. The governor’s 6-month ban on new data centers conveniently ends after the election but before the Legislature can pass new laws.
It's easily explained by cowardice and criminality.
Charles KeenerThat Israel has escaped legal reckoning for its horrific crimes against humanity exposes a profound crisis not only in the execution of international law, but in our collective understanding of what the laws of justice and norms of decency demand.

The answer is jet-powered interceptor drones. And Ukraine is already working on them.
Alina Pereverzieva 🇺🇦The Russians are trying to break through to Kyiv with jet-powered Shahed drones. If we don’t find a way to counter the jet drones, by the end of winter Kyiv and Odesa will be getting spammed nonstop.

On his Wikipedia page five years from now, that's going to be a paragraph. But what we're going through right now is going to be a page."
