Guess who did know… Did you guess Obama? Did you guess Biden?
“The plan, apparently backed by the Biden administration and involving US oil giant Chevron would in effect seal Palestinian energy dependence on Israel.
The US approach is consistent with a strategic framework described in a December 2014 report published under the Obama administration by the US Army War College’s Strategic Studies Institute.”

Here Are the Attack Plans That Trump’s Advisers Shared on Signal
The administration has downplayed the importance of the text messages inadvertently sent to The Atlantic’s editor in chief.Jeffrey Goldberg (The Atlantic)
When Jason Stanley, Professor of Philosophy at Yale, and Yale historian Timothy Snyder, both of whom have written books like "How Fascism Works" and "On Tyranny", flee the country to a safer one, you can probably start figuring out what your country has become.
Fleeing fascistic/dictatorial regimes had been a last resort for people fearing persecution in the 20th century. It's now happening in 21st century #USA.

Florida to consider relaxing child labour laws to fill vacant jobs
Now that the United States is cracking down on immigration, some low-skill jobs may not be so easy to fill. So the state is debating lifting some child labour laws to involve minors.Doloresz Katanich (Euronews.com)
“That is, the most likely reason why Trump’s entire national security team was using an insecure platform to plan war strikes was to ensure there were no embarrassing records for posterity, a violation of the law.”
👆 Folks, I’m seeing more of this lately so please, stop. Understand what you’re taking about before spouting off. Signal *is* a secure platform and peddling nonsense like this is only going to make people less secure if they believe it and stop using it. What it can’t do is protect you if you’re clueless enough to add someone to your *secure* conversation who shouldn’t be there.

🚨 Let’s Encrypt at risk from Trump cuts to OTF: “Let’s Encrypt received around $800,000 in funding from the OTF”
Dear @EUCommission, get your heads out of your arses and let’s find @letsencrypt €1M/year (a rounding error in EU finances) and have them move to the EU.
If Let’s Encrypt is fucked, the web is fucked, and the Small Web is fucked too. So how about we don’t let that happen, yeah?
(In the meanwhile, if the Let’s Encrypt folks want to make a point about how essential they are, it might be an idea to refuse certificates to republican politicians. See how they like their donation systems breaking in real time…)

DNA testing site 23andMe files for bankruptcy protection - bbc.com/news/articles/c9q4r9xy…
Of course...a bullshit company, like most companies, providing nothing useful for the people and now even putting their personal information (and DNA) at risk. Because you know, other company may buy it and who knows what it does with the data. I have been saying that since the beginning when everyone was so excited about this useless company.
To read the DNA for useful purposes should be the job of entities that do not make a business out of it, but take care of people´s health. This nonsense of "see where you ancestors are from" "see if you are fucking irish or a goblin", is so useless even if accurate, which may not even be.
Anyway, another story of nonsense companies that make people give them their data to then fuck up this information for everyone.
