There's no way they could keep that quiet -- someone would absolutely leak it.
Holy shit, y’all. Is that motherfucker already dead and they’re gonna blame it on Iran? 🤔

Can we normalize not making people feel guilty for refusing to switch seats on airplanes? I specifically booked and paid for a window seat. You can’t show up with a family of five, discover you’re all sitting in different rows, and expect strangers to fix the situation. I’ll happily help someone when I can, but I’m not giving up something I paid extra for just because you asked.

Those AI-generated YouTube shorts with a female Draco look better than this.
HBO is reportedly in total panic mode following backlash to the new Hogwarts feast clip for 'HARRY POTTER', with insiders claiming the network is deeply anxious over fan pushback to changes made from the original books and films. One insider warned: "Adding original moments like the students chanting Dumbledore's name before the banquet was meant to build hype, but seeing fans immediately tear apart the alterations has executives terrified the book-faithful marketing promise is collapsing." HBO is reportedly under immense pressure to win back skeptical viewers ahead of the December 25 premiere.

In August, FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford told me they needed $19 billion to complete the air traffic control overhaul. With no explanation, that number jumped to $30 billion in a September press conference where Bedford and DOT Sec. Sean Duffy spoke. Last night, Duffy threw out a new figure. $50 billion. No explanation other than we need it. This is on top of $12.5 billion that Congress funded last year.

Too soon. What @AOC should do is run for @SenSchumer's seat in 2028. Spend one-ish terms as senator - then run for the big job in 2036. She has time.
The Democratic Socialists of America's New York City chapter officially urged Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to launch a presidential run in 2028. The resolution passed by the New York City DSA is not an official endorsement. cnn.it/4zxDxhK

It was a weird clip to start with -- and it definitely makes it feel like Harry is a side character in his story. They spent more money on animating the food on the tables than they did on the sets.

Only the Trump regime would fuck up the entire air traffic system for 5 hours then yell at us like it’s our fault and demand we give them $50 billion

Mike Johnson going on Fox News to say we don’t need to investigate the FAA ground stop is a pretty fucking good reason to investigate the FAA ground stop.

WoW tip: "You're less likely to find wandering monsters if you stay on the road." Unless - of course, you're in a zone with monsters much higher than you. In that case, the monsters FIND you.

Okay -- So, then the question is -- why did the Trump regime want Huang out? Rubio doesn't do anything unless Trump orders it.
BREAKING: Last week's series of events which ultimately led to Jensen Huang's resignation were "set in motion" by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, per The Washington Post. Details include: 1. Rubio initially issued a memo warning President Trump about the relationship between Jensen Huang and a suspected Chinese spy 2. This memo was based on a CIA report which was "recasted in his own assertive terms" 3. The findings of Rubio’s memo were then leaked to the media setting off last week's chain of events 4. Jensen Huang's resignation came just 6 days after the leaks Rubio has reportedly declined to answer reporters’ questions on his role in alerting the White House to Huang’s affair.

Remember during the beginning of COVID when Donald Trump sent one of the very first virus testing machines to Vladimir Putin so he could use it at his personal mansion (instead of sending it to any number of American hospitals where people were dying)? I remember.

Every Senator that backs Schumer needs to be voted OUT when their term ends
I think Schumer is trying to bluff and pretends he has the support he needs in order to snuff out the rebellion. CALL YOUR SENATORS AND SAY NO TO SCHUMER AND YES TO VAN HOLLEN.

Was the whole FAA air traffic disaster STAGED is a form of holding America HOSTAGE to demand billions of dollars for contractors mostly owned by Israeli investors? That's the explanation here:
Bro, they aren't even trying to hide the corrpution anymore!! The FAA airline stoppage story is a MUCH bigger one than the ground stop itself, and I only saw it once I started following the money and who gets paid... Here is what I found... The official line is that it was NOT a cyberattack and NOT a "nefarious act." US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy points at overloaded routers and old broken equipment. Sure we can take that at face value, because it matters for what comes next. Because on the SAME day, the White House went to Congress for 10s of billions of dollars to rebuild air traffic control, and Duffy pushed the number EVEN higher on camera. Both happen on the same day, a very public failure declared NOT an attack, and the argument for a VERY large cheque built straight on top of it. Whether the outage was engineered or was just the system rotting on schedule, the political result they are after is the SAME, the breakdown becomes the justification for MORE MONEY. The money is the whole point here, and it ends up in one place... The "brand new" air traffic control system contracts was handed in December 2025 to a single prime contractor, Peraton, a company owned by the private equity firm Veritas Capital, and chosen despite limited FAA experience. The full program is priced at around $31 billion dollars. Congress has so far put up only $12 billion as a "down payment." The rest is still UNFUNDED. So Friday's breakdown arrives as the pressure to approve the rest of the SAME program already promised to the SAME private contractor; Peraton. Most US airports are public, owned by cities and airport authorities, but the terminals and the systems get built by private firms, and that is where the billions flow, out of public failure and public money into private hands. So who are those PRIVATE HANDS benefiting most? Who ultimately gets the money? The prime contract went to Peraton, a private company owned by the private equity firm Veritas Capital. And who funds Veritas? Its investors are Israeli institutions: Clal Insurance $100M, Migdal Insurance $60M, Menora Mivtachim $50M, plus ~$150M from private Israeli investors, all in its at least $15.3 billion fund. Peraton’s lobbyist is Mark Bednar also sits on the board of the "nonprofit" that funded Sean Duffy’s TV show “The Great American Road Trip”. This is the question, and it needs to be examined by EVERYONE. A pressure tactic to MOVE public money into private hands, while America and Americans pay for it with 5,000 cancelled flights and the economic fallout from that many cancelled flights… The proximity is on the public record too, lobbying and personnel links running between the contractor and the officials now asking you to fund it. Americans ate the cancelled flights and a wrecked weekend. The money walks the other way, into private hands, and the whole thing is dressed up as an emergency repair. Who will investigate this corruption and conflict of interest? See the next set of ties in the comments. Follow for more... 𝗦𝗜𝗚𝗡𝗔𝗟, 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗡𝗢𝗜𝗦𝗘!!
