The new U.S. National Security Strategy is the most revealing — and self-sabotaging — doctrine Washington has published in decades. Full breakdown here ⬇️ medium.com/@pjhillier/w... #Geopolitics #NSS2025 #ForeignPolicy #GlobalSecurity

The U.S. 2025 NSS doesn’t call Canada a “vassal state,” but the structure points in that direction. Canada’s sovereignty, resources, and even Canadians working in U.S. institutions are all affected. Here’s why it matters medium.com/@pjhillier/w... #Geopolitics #Canada #NorthAmerica #PolicyAnalysis

This is great. Very few people want to go to jail, get disbarred or die for this regime. Make them fight you. They will cave. www.ms.now/news/minneap...

There are many things I'm thankful for today - friends, family, my Hopium community, proud patriots fighting for their democracy all across the country. But I'm also deeply grateful to the American people for having so comprehensively rejected Trump and his rancid regime. A holiday thread:

Here is my peace plan for Ukraine/Russia. 1. Russia gets the fuck out of Ukraine. 2. Putin goes on trial in the Hague. 3. Russia pays everyone for everything. 4. Trump gets impeached, convicted, and sent to jail. Thanks for your attention to this matter.

If you needed evidence of the risks of a world leader with dementia; here it is

My series on #SSE over on LinkedIn; the real kind rooted in mission assurance, #SE fundamentals, and #SP800-160 ↔ #ISO15288 alignment. Curious about the engineering side of #resilience (not #compliance theatre), you can find the posts here: 🔗 www.linkedin.com/in/peterhill...

This warrants a read and share!

Just marinate on this for a bit. Let it really soak in. A person that uses the screen name 1776 nation just non-ironically made this post. This is what you get when Dunning-Kruger subjects start trying to discuss politics. MAGA at its core.

Former UVA president Jim Ryan, who resigned over the summer due to pressure from the Trump Administration, just shared this 12-page letter with the Faculty Senate, detailing his experience with the Board of Visitors and DOJ. It's a surreal--and troubling--read. drive.google.com/file/d/1Is6x...

The company described it as an “unfortunate mix-up.” Passengers described it as “the first time the in-flight entertainment has been remotely entertaining."

Trump’s pardons aren’t mercy; they’re memory edits. Each one rewrites the record from illegal to acceptable, turning defiance into doctrine. It’s not justice, but it is the normalization of corruption.

All the pearl-clutching about Zohran Mamdani--by right-wingers who elected a half-senile old TV star president--is very amusing. For once the shoe is on the other foot.

When the state becomes a shareholder, it stops refereeing and starts playing. The legal question isn’t can the government invest; it’s who authorized it. Congress used to. The Executive now acts alone. medium.com/@pjhillier/w...

Who says passive aggressive can't work! "Thank you for your attention to this matter." lol

Jennifer Siebel Newsom: I will not raise my children to think Donald Trump is an acceptable American leader. He is a con artist, a predator, a malignant narcissist, and the worst president in our nation's history.

not just wrong - it's a crime. it's murder

Take the same cognitive test Trump “aced” at Walter Reed: 1️⃣ Name some animals 2️⃣ Draw a clock 3️⃣ Remember a few words Pass it… and congratulations — you’re now a certified Very Stable Genius™. 🙄https://championsforhealth.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/MOCA-8.1.8.2-English.pdf

I’ve been watching the tone of online America shift all year. From exhaustion to outright defiance. What started as noise is turning into something like civic self-defense. This new piece explores that change, and why it matters. Read it here: medium.com/@pjhillier/t...

POTUS lives in a house, not a palace. No fancy hats or costumes, no sashes or uniforms. He's not the fount of honor. He's a citizen holding a temporary office, not sovereignty personified. Our civic ceremonies are modest and practical, not extravagant. There's real substance behind these things.

People are constantly asking me — what can I do? Between now and the 2026 midterm elections, here are five practical steps you can take to make a difference. youtu.be/8W-lVRQQGtI?...

If you want a crown, earn it. If you want a jet, get a pilot’s license. If you want to dump on millions of protesters, maybe get a therapist.

Today’s lesson: a sitting President posted a 20-second AI clip of himself proudly dumping sludge on Americans exercising their constitutional rights. If you thought civics class was optional, think again. #NoKings #DemocracyNotDrama.

Russ Vought turned the budget office into a weapon. “Woke and weaponized” was his spell. Now he’s starving agencies and calling it faith. #RussellVought #Project2025

Russell Vought isn’t budgeting; he’s executing a slow-motion coup. A zealot with a spreadsheet, deleting democracy one line item at a time. #Project2025

At the end of my career; it’s easier

To be clear: LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government. The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency. This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

He’s a f’ing liar

NEWS: "Donald Trump is a pedophile who routinely raped young girls." MAGA: "So boring." NEWS: "Donald Trump is allowing Qatar to build an air force base in Idaho.” MAGA: “This is IMMORAL! What an outrage!!! I will not stand for this wicked behavior!!!”

TRUMP & EPSTEIN ARE SEX TRAFFICKERS!!! I’m gonna post this every day so nobody forgets exactly who Pedophile Trump is and why the Epstein files have suddenly disappeared.

This is Adelita Grijalva. She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files. She has still NOT been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so. This is Adelita Grijalva. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles #Trump #EpsteinFiles

It’s Johnson’s responsibility to swear her in!

The struggle on those urban training areas is real.

Hegseth’s “Survivor: Pentagon Edition” reminded us: every general swore an oath to the Constitution, not an agenda. 👉 Loyalty to a man or to the oath — you can’t have both. #OathNotAgenda #DefendDemocracy

Look, you can either pay thousands for a bootcamp, or scroll through this list of free training while still affording grub. Spoiler: the content’s just as good, and you don’t even have to listen to a guy in a hoodie whisper ‘zero trust’ into a headset mic for three hours. start.me/p/b5epnR/fre...

To the best of your knowledge? That’s like handing us a check from an empty bank account.
