It's a distraction. Just like French Senator Claude Malhuret said: "Every time the Epstein affair resurfaces, bombs explode somewhere in the world and cause a distraction!"

The administration is being chased by demons alright, and they all look like Jeffrey Epstein. This is just another distraction.

How do you trust a new Linux Distribution?

Who do you trust (… and how do you trust the new Linux Distribution StageX?) Do you trust your best friend from childhood? Do you trust your chosen Distribution for your Homelab? For your Workplace? Psychology says there are roughly two types of trust. Direct and Transitive trust. Direct trust is you trusting your best friend. Transitive trust is your best friend assuring you another person is also trustworthy and you listening to their word because you trust them.

While the #ontario #conservatives are blocking their phone records from their constituents in the name of privacy, and #alberta’s smith flies private jets to the Emirates, while they are also trying to loosen the rules about telling our enemies where we’re stationed, while Pp’s comms people speak within themselves and their circles to find podcasts for him to spill his spiel - the dumbest #division #distraction i’ve seen in some time.

#cdnpoli please step up, because there will be no playing catch-up. Act and #vote like our #democracy is at stake - because it is.

Trump says a predecessor told him he wishes he'd attacked Iran

President Donald Trump says a former president has told him that he now wishes he had attacked Iran when he occupied the Oval Office. Trump says he knows this because the former president told him so. But Trump wouldn't say whom he spoke to, saying the person would be embarrassed if his identity were revealed. Aides to all four living former presidents deny any recent contact with Trump. The White House did not respond to a request for comment after being told that none of the former presidents acknowledged any recent contact with Trump.
