This.
A reasonable amount of humor in the presentation of suggestions for simple sabotage will relax tensions of fear.
This is why people don't support big media. Greta Thunberg was kidnapped. Point blank. Was on international waters. Israel is not the world Police. They do not have jurisdiction in international waters. That is kidnapping. No denying it. And not a single large media corporation is mentioning that. What the hell is wrong with this world?

"The National Weather Service costs the average American $4 per year in today’s inflated dollars β€” about the same as a gallon of milk β€” and offers an 8,000 percent annual return on investment, according to 2024 estimates. It’s a farce for the administration to pretend that gutting an agency that protects our coastlines from a rising tide of disasters is in the best interests of our economy or national security. If the private sector could have done it better and cheaper, it would have, and it hasn’t."

It’s only a matter of time before the next Hurricane Milton is at our doorstep. But with our weather intelligence severely compromised, will we know it?

Judge says US violated order on deportations to third countries

A federal judge says the White House violated a court order on deportations to third countries with a flight linked to the chaotic nation of South Sudan. The Trump administration says it expelled eight immigrants convicted of violent crimes in the United States but refused to reveal where they would end up. Judge Brian E. Murphy in Boston said the eight migrants aboard the plane were not given a meaningful opportunity to object that the deportation could put them in danger. He ordered a new set of interviews with the migrants, either back in the U.S. or abroad. Before Wednesday's hearing, administration officials accused β€œactivist judges” of advocating the release of dangerous criminals.
