    WTAF is this. It's kind of doing the opposite of what they thought it would do in that now I am even more certain she's part of it and I'm kind of looking at the cops sideways now as well.

    Well, more sideways.
    This woman was an army psychological operations officer, and she's coming out with this shit? It's scary, I know a few people who've been radicalised online during the pandemic, completely innocuous people just going round the bend

    In a shocking turn of events, that poll he put up was just to save face.

    His burning of twitter has at least allowed me and many others to grow on other social media platforms, so at least when it does die the impact for creators shouldn't be as bad at least...

    Air Force intel officer cops to stashing hundreds of top secret docs at home

    WASHINGTON – An ex-Air Force intelligence officer admitted to “willfully” keeping top secret documents on a thumb drive and computer in his Tampa, Fla. home, a federal plea agreement signed last week reveals.

    Retired Lt. Col. Robert Birchum, 54, pled guilty Friday to a charge of “unlawful retention of national defense information” after investigators discovered he’d kept 135 top secret, secret and classified files on the thumb drive and computer hard drive in 2017, the plea deal states.

    The charge, filed in the US District Court for the Middle District of Florida, carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.

    Founder James O’Keefe Claims Project Veritas Ouster Linked to Pfizer Sting in Farewell to Staff

    darn. but wait, in true PV fashion...

    O’Keefe, who appeared to be talking to gathered Project Veritas staffers, said the video, which was published anonymously on the streaming platform Vimeo, was “just for us,” and was being recorded “for internal distribution,” though he seemed to want the footage released widely.
    And I was wondering about the tenor of the article given the opening paragraph but then I saw it's from National Review.

    Oh.

    Dilbert stopped being funny a long time ago. I’ve been wondering why it’s still on the front page of the Chicago Tribune comics section for a long time.

    Well, chances are that the majority of people who were enjoying Dilbert on the front page of the Chicago Tribune back in the 90ies might be a tad adverse to change now...

    Same here... And their author ended up being a gigantic douche nozzle too.

    Could a child dying from abuse actually benefit society, Eastman asked hypothetically.

    “It can be argued, periodically, that it’s actually a cost savings because that child is not going to need any of those government services that they might otherwise be entitled to receive and need based on growing up in this type of environment,” he said.
    Rep. David Eastman, R-Wasilla

    hmm...about that.

    https://davideastman.org/on-the-issues/protecting-life/

    Paying for abortion with taxpayer dollars, as currently takes here in Alaska, is not only morally reprehensible—it also erodes the culture of life that is essential to successfully combat the evils of infanticide, child abuse and domestic violence.
    and of course:

    David is a father of four kids (3 girls and a boy), a member of the Alaska Peace Officers Association, and is endorsed by Alaska Right to Life. As a former police officer, firefighter and EMT, the motto “That Others May Life” means a great deal to David—and the youngest and oldest members of our community are no exception.
    That's not a real motto for anyone.

    Don Lemon said some PRETTY misogynistic/ageist stuff the other day, about "a woman's prime," and is now in sensitivity training. Something like "EVERYONE knows a woman's prime is in her 20s, 30s...maybe 40s. Google it!"
    And he WASN'T talking about prime years for having kids.

    He was talking about Nikki Haley's age. It was fucking priceless, as he was sitting between two female co hosts who REALLY didn't appreciate it.

    I like him alright, but he sure put his foot in his mouth, this time, and I DON'T think "sensitivity training" is gonna fix this: rather, I'm of the mind that he accidentally said some shit he truly believes.

    Edit: also, I'm with you, @allegate . I don't think "that others may life"... I mean, is that a misprint, or some grammatically ill advised pro life take on "That Others May Live?"
