Fort Bragg is named for Braxton Bragg — a literal traitor who had been in the U.S. Army, enslaved more than 100 people, and became a Confederate general. Trump just bragged ... about renaming the base Fort Bragg (from Fort Liberty) b/c ... you know, ending woke. And, the racism.

Trump: “250 years is a long time as a nation” Almost every other nation: “hold my beer”

Expecting the President to say “look under your seats! you get a medal! you get medal! Everyone gets a medal!”

Where are my music nerds at? This is just a lot of fun. Worth the time. youtu.be/BFul90BFjGc?...

I am so glad they drained the swamp.

More of this please.

ROTFL -Every single time

Every American needs to watch this:

I'm Kat Abughazaleh and I approve this message.

MINNESOTA — Mom goes outside to warm up her car, ICE grabs her: "Please, my car kids are all alone in the house!” So nothing has changed and Homan was just to put a new face on the cruelty, got it (H/T longtimehistory)

This is the BEST explanation I have seen so far.

I remember a time you couldn’t turn on the radio without hearing this song. Still love it!

Signal will never message you like this. If you get a message like this, SOMEONE IS TRYING TO HACK YOUR SIGNAL. DO NOT GIVE THEM THAT CODE.

Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process. This is one that stands out: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Not a “paid protester.” Not an Antifa battalion commander. Not “bussed in from out of state.” A registered nurse at the VA who broke no laws and cared about humanity. Murdered by the Trump Administration.

BREAKING: I just filed a FOIA request for the secret DHS Office of General Counsel memo referenced in the whistleblower report that says ICE can legally enter a residence without a judicial warrant. www.muellershewrote.com/p/breaking-i...

SEEING IS BELIEVING DHS claims the car being chased rammed the ICE vehicle. The video shows the opposite. 📌 A father and son, a US citizen, are chased. The teen is beaten and seriously injured. The father is deported. DHS lied. The video tells the truth. Excellent reporting by Antonia Hylton.

Totally unreasonable search and seizure. 4th amendment violations

ICE is using a Palantir tool that uses Medicaid and other government data to stalk people for arrest, 404 Media reports. This is exactly the kind of data privacy abuse that EFF has been warning about.

As I read this I envisioned a room full of fourth graders making fart jokes and giggling

Thread on Iranian developments for Tuesday January 13, 2026. There are wide estimates for fatalities related to the crackdown. Anywhere from 2000-3000 by unnamed Iranian govt officials (NYT) to 12000 (Iran International [news]). 1/

A WSJ investigation found that ICE agents have fired at or into civilian vehicles at least 13 times since last July, leaving 8 people shot and 2 dead.

Locking down your phone, being mindful of what you're wearing, and coming up with plans to communicate with others are all key steps to take before attending a protest. ssd.eff.org/module/atte...

Yo @governor.ca.gov - let’s pick up the tab.

This brilliant, compassionate human could have been assisting to lead our country.

I’m feeling old now.

Trump scores a perfect 20/20 on the fascism scale. The question is central to understand him. He has disappeared migrants into camps, sent troops into cities, “spread a message of violence” to try to overturn elections, accused migrants of “poisoning the blood of our country”...

This is a fantastic story about the horrors of internet abuse and how online activities have real world impacts. Super excited for this to be released in the US.

Forget all that other stuff….look at this!!!!

Boots on the ground: Venezuela.

Wild story here from South Korea about an insider data breach of ecommerce giant Coupang. Former worker stole private data of 30m customers. Got caught and threw his laptop in a river. Coupang fully transparent and already giving compensation. Source: Coupang! 👏 www.aboutcoupang.com/English/news...

The Complete Hitchhikers Guide

Intrepid - characterized by resolute fearlessness, fortitude, and endurance; it describes someone brave, bold, and undaunted, like an intrepid explorer facing the unknown. The word comes from Latin, literally meaning "not trembling with fear".

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game. The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

I usually find year-end top stories round-ups to be insipid and mediocre at best, but this one by @lawrenceabrams.bsky.social is first-rate. www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/securit...

Happy Birthday to all my fellow #cybersecurity #infosec peeps.

I can’t say good things about “smokey grilled steak flavored” Pringles.

Some great moments from CYBERWARCON 2025! Insightful talks, real conversations, and a community that keeps pushing the work forward. Grateful for our speakers, sponsors, volunteers, and attendees who made it all happen! Make sure to stay connected with us for updates on #CYBERWARCON!

if they had just shown it on 60 Minutes nobody would have seen it

Dear LAX term B. Turn on a fan or AC. Its summertime in here.

So apropos.

And finally, the assault on Section 230. This is the endgame for independent speech. If you repeal 230, you don’t hurt Google or Meta—they have the lawyers to survive. You destroy the small forums, the independent blogs, the dissenters. You make the cost of speaking the truth too high to bear.
