Mark Zuckerberg is trying to fix the Brazilian election in 8 days. He has suspended the accounts of President Lula on Instagram and Facebook. These criminals need to be in jail.

My favorite detail in this story is that before becoming ambassador, Kimberly Guifoyle pursued, then abandoned, "a line of hair care and fragrances called Flor de Maga."
Kimberly Guilfoyle has puzzled government officials across the region with her extensive efforts to involve Christos Marafatsos, a 39-year-old former produce seller turned Greeks for Trump chairman. Marafatsos has attended so many of her meetings that some foreign officials mistook him for her chief of staff. Instead, he’s a top lobbyist for a company she’s been promoting—a fact he often doesn’t disclose, including in meetings with government officials. wsj.com/articles/kimberly-gu…

People are entitled to their opinions, but not their own facts. Biden had a deal in place w/Senate Rs that none other than Lindsey Graham said was the best deal Rs were going to get, Trump told Rs to kill it, and the whole episode is now flushed down the memory hole
“Biden’s problem is he didn’t lead on immigration. He was silent mostly.” Our @DashaBurns talked with Gina Hinojosa, the Democrat running for governor of Texas, about how she thinks Democrats should speak about immigration enforcement. 🎧 Full interview here: politi.co/4rQvBpD

乌克兰最近把一架相对完好迫降的俄军最新型“天竺葵-4”(Geran-4)无人机,当场大卸八块。 拆完之后,桌上摆着的零件,呈现出一个既荒谬又无比现实的真相: 整架号称打得乌克兰防空防不胜防的喷气大杀器,除了最外面的机壳和总装螺丝是俄罗斯自己拧的, 里面所有的关键器官,几乎全是从外面运进来的。 先看动力。 过去老款天竺葵-2用的是活塞螺旋桨,飞起来像拖拉机一样嗡嗡响,时速不到两百公里,乌克兰机动防空队开着皮卡架挺机枪就能拦截。 但这次拆开天竺葵-4,机腹里塞的是一台微型涡喷发动机。 飞行高度直接从四千米拔到了八千米,是老款的两倍; 巡航时速干到了四百五十到五百公里,甚至还能更快。 这玩意儿已经能从克里米亚起飞,一口气狂奔七百多公里,直接扎进乌克兰西北部的卢茨克。 谁造的? 拆开一看,中国产的微型涡喷。有些虽然标着俄罗斯组装,核心组件也全是中国货。 再看眼睛。 头部装了一套光电转塔,白昼、夜视、红外三合一。 十倍光学变焦,加三十二倍数码变焦。 八千米的高空往下看,地面车辆的轮廓一清二楚。 它根本不需要前线侦察兵冒死指引。操纵员哪怕坐在几百公里外的布良斯克、奥廖尔或者克里米亚的后方工位上,只要链路连着,就能像玩模拟器一样实时遥控它扑向目标。 那实时信号怎么传? 专家从机身里抠出了两个普通的 GSM 模块,上面插着民用电话卡。 更离奇的是,现场技术人员在这些残骸里,不仅翻出了俄罗斯和白俄罗斯的 SIM 卡,甚至还找到了乌克兰本土运营商、以及欧盟国家的流量卡。 无人机只要一过境,直接蹭乌克兰本地民用基站的网络,把自己的实时位置往回传。 万一飞进没有手机信号的荒郊野岭呢? 它还有备手。 拆解人员从里面掏出了一块来自中国的自组网 Mesh 调制解调器,通信半径三百公里。 几架天竺葵在空中编队飞,彼此之间能自动互相当中继,你传给我、我传给后方,直接在天上搭出一套无中心的移动局域网,几百公里外的视频画面照样掐不断。 最后拆到最值钱的机载电脑飞控板。 刮开主板上的涂层,芯片上的丝印虽然被磨去了一半,但剩下的英文字母依然清晰可辨: Texas Instruments——美国德州仪器。 现场专家给了一句很冷酷的总结: “这架飞机上真正属于俄罗斯制造的,就只有复合材料的机身外壳,以及最后的总装车间。” 这些零件最后运到鞑靼斯坦的阿拉布加(Alabuga)特区,工人们把壳子一合、螺丝一拧,就成了前线每天夜里呼啸而过的精确打击武器。 而根据乌克兰军情局的评估,像阿拉布加这样的工厂,现在每个月能量产大概三千架天竺葵-4和天竺葵-5。 打了四年多,制裁令签了一叠又一叠,结果最前沿的致命武器内部,流淌的依然是全球供应链的血液: 动力与通信来自成熟民用货架,核心控制芯片来自美国转道走私,连定位回传都在蹭对手基站的 SIM 卡。 这才是现代战争里最棘手的现实: 威权体制根本不需要在温室里从头研发一套自给自足的军工帝国。 只要民用消费级工业品在全球随处可买,只要洗钱通道和转口贸易依然处处漏风, 他们就能用极低的成本,把全世界的民用技术拼装成工业级的杀人工厂。 如果外部世界的制裁只盯着军品清单打补丁,却堵不住庞大的双用途灰色管涌, 这种廉价而致命的涡喷蜂群,在流水线上就很难真正停下来。

Kimberly Guilfoyle, the U.S. ambassador to Greece, has faced scrutiny over remarks she allegedly made during a private dinner in Athens in March 2026. The discussion at the dinner, attended by Greek and U.S. officials, turned to the collapse of the Romanian government. A person who attended the dinner and others briefed on the exchange said Guilfoyle remarked: “We can do that to any country we want. We can do that here.” The comment reportedly led to a tense exchange with Greece’s energy minister Stavros Papastavrou, who responded that the U.S. could not replace Greece’s government, which was elected by voters.

Replying to @AZAGMayes
@AZAGMayes @BlackmanForAZ @MatthewGress @AZGOP @GinaSwoboda @RepEliCrane This kind of behavior has been going on in #LD7 for several years. We sounded the alarm-were you listening? When will you put a stop to this? @MtnDailyStar condemns this behavior! And we have since uncovering it in 2024. We had the guts to report on it, now it’s your turn. Do something! nitter.cf/mtndailystar/status/21…
Data Dump #1 of 3. @MtnDailyStar received the audio recording attached from a confidential source. The recording is a call between #LD7 #AZSenate Rep. Wendy Rogers and #LD2 #AZHouse candidate Ari Bradshaw. The call took place in Dec. 2023 and is about #LD7 #AZHouse candidate Steve Slaton allegedly using the Hard R word (the N-word) when discussing #LD7 #AZHouse Rep. David Marshall. Bradshaw sounded the alarm on Slaton's racial slurs, and you can listen to Rep. Wendy Rogers' response to the concerns about the racial slur. Rogers is the self-appointed "leader" of the conservative Republican party in Arizona. Walt Blackman and David Marshall have been attacked with racial slurs since 2016. Blackman was the first Black Republican elected to the Arizona Legislature in 2018. @WendyRogersAZ @BlackmanForAZ @DaveMarshallAZ @AriBradshawAZ

If you’re struggling to put food on the table or buy gas for your car, remember, these insanely affluent assholes have increased their collective wealth by $1.5 trillion dollars under Trump’s “presidency.”

Epstein described how Trump fraudulently got financing for his builds after US banks rejected him. Paolo Zampolli, Felix Sater, and Sergei million were the “brokers” who likely put together the majority of Russian pre-buyers to help Trump get 100% financing if 60% of the property was “pre-sold”. Russians would then either launder money to buy the condos or back out since Trump had the needed financing with their help. I have very little doubt following the money would expose this clearly and more. Mark this post.

Seems like there are a lot of crimes being conducted by AI companies tonight. The word “rogue” is the language the AI titans want you to use. Don’t buy it. They own this. I wrote last week for @theatlantic about crimes against the human species.
“The rapid development of AI has caused widespread speculation about what will happen when the technology “goes rogue.” This metaphor should be retired, because it implies that the companies and individuals that build and deploy these models aren’t culpable for building products that are supposedly too smart to control.”

The Trump administration has spent at least $443,000 on pro-Trump TV ads paid for by the U.S. government. The White House issued a statement calling the spots “clearly not campaign ads”: "The attacks on President Donald J. Trump’s public service announcements are highly dishonest. The announcements are very clearly not campaign ads; President Trump is not on the ballot and there is no call to action,” the White House said in a statement. “Instead, the announcements are a reminder for Americans to love their country and know why it’s worth defending — at home, at the border, and abroad. That’s not partisanship — that’s a government that still believes in the country it serves." variety.com/2026/tv/news/whi…

1. How easy is it to create Russian AI propaganda? We put it to the test. A fake showing @christogrozev and me with a NATO general cost $80 to make. Six Russian websites published it as fact. In our new video, we show how Russia’s AI disinformation machine works. youtube.com/watch?v=62hWVaNz…

DO NOT UNDER ANY FUCKING CIRCUMSTANCES GO TO THIS WEBSITE. EVER. THIS IS MALWARE CREATED BY BIG BALLS AND JOE GEBBIA.
EXCLUSIVE: The Trump administration is set to launch America.gov, a new AI-powered tool designed to be a "one-stop shop" for Americans navigating the federal government, replacing what officials describe as a maze of scattered agency websites. President Trump and Vice President Vance will unveil the platform Tuesday at an all-day event in Washington featuring Elon Musk, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, Blue Origin CEO Dave Limp, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Dr. Mehmet Oz. The event will also include panels on AI, energy, health, space, and agriculture. The tool was built by the National Design Studio, led by AirBnB cofounder Joe Gebbia — the first-ever Chief Design Officer of the United States — who told Fox News Digital the launch marks a "new chapter of usability for the country."

What in the Sam Hill? Prescott's Sam Hill Hardware Co. warehouse was built in 1903 and operated until 1980. It's adjacent to the Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoenix Railway Bridge over Granite Creek. The warehouse is now an event space. ontheroadarizona.com/prescot…
