The Department of State’s Birth Tourism Prevention Task Force has now revoked more than 6,000 visas from foreigners who engaged in or facilitated birth tourism. We are identifying and holding accountable everyone involved in this illicit practice.

Tennessee is cooked. Insert fork and baster. This is in Copper Hill.... About 1.5-2 hours east of Chattanooga.. and all the familiar faces are there : FEMA Catholic Charities As much as they need the help for the flooding, and as much as I despise Reagan, something something from the government and here to help rings true and scary.

I guarantee you two things.  First, there are dozens of U.S. intelligence analysts feveriously watching this video of Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin engaged in discussion with U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kusher. Second, most of the analysts will get their interpretations wrong. Beyond the unusual and remarkable transparency of Russia allowing the media to witness and record some very substantive points being made, the animated nature of Vladimir Putin [15:00 forward] is not customary for him.  Putin is normally stoic in his body language and does not usually animate his words with his hands; in this discussion he does. After the formalities and diplomatic niceties expressed by Putin, he gets right down to business asking both Witkoff and Kushner to summarize their perspectives on the recent Abu Dhabi talks.  You can see Kushner caught off guard when asked to answer a question -specificicity- that would normally not be asked during public moments [14:45]. I can tell you from experience in studying Russian’s close up over a long timeframe, President Putin is frustrated at the remarks from the U.S. side because Russia doesn’t culturally engage in ‘blah, blah, blah.’  You see this when Putin talks about the “grey zones” that are stunningly antithetical to the mindset of any Russian. In Russia there is Yes or No, there is not this western talk of ‘maybe.’ In Russia there are clear boundaries in almost everything. There is yours and mine, there is no ours.  There is right and wrong, there is no “kinda.”  When a Russian has something to say, they say it – and there is a point to it, a specific point. Russians approach things with a ‘do’ or ‘do not’ perspective, it is just their culture. President Putin, just like any other Russian, is not being curt or rude, he is being direct.  Say or don’t say, but do not talk circles about maybe saying or maybe doing; it will piss off a Russian quickly.  Do or do not, but don’t talk about doing for the sake of talking about doing.  You either do, or don’t – that’s it. The failure of Americans or western viewers to understand the Russian mindset leads to poor analysis of what Russia says and does.  Russians seem rude to western eyes and ears, but they are not – they’re just very direct and they don’t engage in small talk about anything.  Everything a Russian says has a point to it, or they just don’t say anything. Putin is eyerolling at moments because from his perspective Putin wants this war to end, and he wants it to end on direct and easy to understand terms. The western approach is blah, blah, blah… working toward, understanding, starting the framework, building toward some vague beginning of something that first needs to be defined in order to understand it… blah… blah…. blah. You can tell from this video President Putin wants direct, simple, black-and-white, regional lines and territory drawn. Europe/NATO has no need to inject themselves into the issues that are between Russia and Ukraine to resolve, and Putin has no respect for the western process of endness paralysis by analysis. With that in mind, watch the video:👇

Today, as part of Operation Endgame, the FBI and our partners announced the disruption of the malware and botnet known as Gootloader. Since 2018, Gootloader malware infected more than 25,000 computers worldwide and was used in ransomware attacks against at least 44 U.S.-based victims, resulting in millions of dollars in losses. As part of the coordinated international operation, @FBIDenver and partners removed the Gootloader malware from over 100 computer servers and seized the U.S. domain names used by criminals to deliver and control the malware. Private-sector partner The Shadowserver Foundation assisted with identifying infections, victim notification, and remediation. justice.gov/opa/pr/gootloade…

🚨TILLIS: "Are you a conspiracy theorist?" RFK JR: "That is a pejorative that is applied to me mainly to keep me from asking difficult questions. I was told that I was a conspiracy theorist for saying that COVID vaccines wouldn't prevent transmission, now they admit it. I was called a conspiracy theorist because I said red dye causes cancer, now the FDA acknowledges it. I was called a conspiracy theorist because I said fluoride lowers IQ, now they have published a study showing a inverse correlation. I can go on for a week."
