"A 25-year-old engineer named Marko Elez, who previously worked for two Elon Musk companies, has direct access to Treasury Department systems responsible for nearly all payments made by the US government, three sources tell WIRED.
Two of those sources say that Elez’s privileges include the ability not just to read but to write code on two of the most sensitive systems in the US government…"

"Protestors could be seen anywhere you looked. Overhead, hanging their flags over the freeway on Alameda Street's exit sign, and walking on the actual freeway where some people had spray painted 'FUCK ICE' on the ground and 'Chinga La Migra' on the walls."

Please resist the urge to make sweeping predictions.
Some fool on here wrote a long-ass post asserting that there will be violence at the Feb. 5 protests.
As anyone who's participated in than a few of them understands, protests can be complicated and unpredictable.
No one can credibly predict that a rally, march or civil disobedience will turn violent.
Predictions about complicated events are worthless at best.
Right now, the fediverse desperately needs more news and fewer takes.

Mastodon has been shitty for breaking news about the fires in LA.
–very few people in the affected areas posting news about the fires here
–many, many people far outside the affected areas posting garbage takes, conjecture, misinformation and disinformation
If you don't know the area, and you're inexperienced with breaking news about fires and other major disasters, maybe sit this one out.

If you live far away from southern California, and for some reason you feel entitled to speculate about these fires by making wild claims like all of Los Angeles burning down, please:
STAY IN YOUR FUCKING LANE

Mat Wright keeps running his mouth about an unfolding disaster he knows nothing about.
"Eaton fire has exploded in size, winds will drive that right into Orange County"
Fact check: This MFer, a thousand miles away in fucking Canada, insists on spreading false info + speculation. The fire is nowhere near Orange County.
"the Covid left and progressives have to stop fighting themselves: get real, don't fight me, fight authority"
No one is fighting you, Mat.
Stop punching yourself in the face.

Mat Wright, who some of you follow, is live posting incorrect information from Canada about multiple major, fast moving fires in Los Angeles, including bogus details about evacuation orders. When politely asked to correct his posts, he's telling people to fuck off then blocking them. Please don't do this shit, y'all. #PalisadesFire

Biden supporters are so fucking pathetic. They belong in a cult.

The situation in Europe is looking dire.
Biden for the first time authorized Ukraine to launch U.S.-made long range missiles at Russia.
Russia hit Ukraine with its own long range missile.
And now, Russia is threatening to use nuclear weapons against a newly-opened U.S. missile defense base in Poland.
If that happens, things could rapidly spiral out of control.
This is why I've never been OK with the "rah-rah let's fuck up Russia" rhetoric.
If you were awake during the Cold War, you know.
