It's simply appalling when you observe the level of willful ignorance; that whole attitude that smacks of "we hate Trump, and nothing under the sun can convince us that anything he says or does is good and beneficial to the American people."

The Daily Beast also scrubbed its podcast episode, dubbed “How Has Trump’s Campaign Manager Made $22 MILLION?,” from its platform after LaCivita’s lawyers demanded more retractions in January.

The Daily Beast “should have investigated and followed the money before publishing lies in order to get clicks and push their political agenda,” said LaCivita’s lawyer Mark Geragos, who has defended high-profile figures like Michael Jackson, Winona Ryder and Chris Brown.

LaCivita isn’t seeking a specific amount in damages but is instead allowing the amount to be determined at trial. According to Axios, the case is being funded by the Republican National Committee.

We knew that the Left would start blaming President Donald Trump and DOGE for every death around the world following his USAID cuts.

And they already have. New York Times reporter Nicholas Kristof said President Trump killed two kids in South Sudan and Alex Cole blamed him for the death of a Taiwanese national in Thailand.

The Associated Press is here to add more bodies to the tally with this article:






They write:

The woman survived two brutal attacks in the dying days of the war in Ethiopia’s Tigray region. First, she said, she was dragged to a military encampment and gang-raped by Eritrean soldiers who held dozens of other women. Two days later, she was raped again by a group of militiamen.
Her attackers broke her collarbone and her wrist. They also infected her with HIV. More than two years later, she can sometimes buy antiretroviral drugs by selling part of the wheat she gets as a displaced person, but it’s not enough.
'I am strong, but my disease is getting worse and worse,' the woman told The Associated Press at a clinic in Shire, a town in northwestern Tigray. The AP typically does not identify people who are victims of sexual abuse.
Tigray was once considered a model in the fight against HIV. Years of awareness-raising efforts had brought the region’s HIV prevalence rate to 1.4%, one of the lowest in Ethiopia.

It's sad and awful, but -- once again -- why is America the only country responsible for stopping this?

Where is the U.N.? Where's the E.U.? Where are other African countries?

Yesterday, from DC to Brussels, progressives tried to seize the Signal moment and sink the Trump Administration, or at least torpedo it amidships (or words to that effect). PoliticoEU ran the story under a headline meant to ooze fancypants British sneering but actually made me laugh out loud: “‘Why don’t you go back to your country?’ Marjorie Taylor Greene snaps at top UK reporter.” After the initial chuckle, I enjoyed the sub-headline’s guffaw: “We don’t give a crap about your opinion and your reporting,’ the staunch Trump supporter told journalist Martha Kelner.”

Maybe it’s my middle-school sense of humor, or perhaps my undying affection for southern ladies’ blunt perspectives. But c’mon. That’s MTG gold. Bless your heart.

In the wake of Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg’s sly Signal slide-in to a national security chat, Democrats have demanded resignations, barked at Cabinet members during Congressional hearings, blasted poor Katherine Leavett, and flung poo all around their cages. But so far, they don’t seem to be gaining any real traction. Maybe that’s because two years ago, former SecDef Lloyd Austin mysteriously went walkabout for several weeks during a particularly difficult period in the Proxy War and the left swooned at his bravery and cunning. That will show the Russians who they’re dealing with!

For its part, the Atlantic piled on yesterday, feigning altruistic motives. It released the entire Signal chat archive— despite having high-handedly argued two days ago it withheld those other portions for national security. Surprise, surprise, nothing in the additional texts revealed any national security secrets, and just made the Trump national security team look even better.

But a more entertaining possibility for the new text dump was a different kind of self-defense. The Atlantic seems to have tripped over the National Espionage Act, which criminalizes sharing national defense information. Yesterday the Atlantic, still defiant, began pivoting wildly. It defenestrated its original label for the texts as “secret war plans.”

Suddenly, for some reason (to cover its butt) the Atlantic has started insisting that Golberg never even saw any classified information.

Meanwhile, in related news, another sketchy Democrat NGO sued the Trump Administration over its long-approved use of Signal, as a violation of the official records act. I’d say it was going nowhere fast, but the case was randomly assigned to cadaver-like Judge Boasberg, who is already embroiled in a battle over Tren de Aragua deportations. So who knows.

Megyn Kelly and Glenn Greenwald Point and Laugh at Natasha Bertrand's Classified Info 'Outrage'



The event that the left is trying WAY too hard to label 'Signalgate' is bringing out some hypocrite Hall of Famers as the Democrat Party continues to try to grasp at any straw within their reach to take down the Trump administration.








'It is safe to say that anybody in uniform would be court martialed for this,' the official said. 'We don’t provide that level of information on unclassified systems, in order to protect the lives and safety of the servicemembers carrying out these strikes. If we did, it would be wholly irresponsible. My most junior analysts know not to do this.'

If there was an Olympic medal in clutching fake pearls (while also citing anonymous sources), Bertrand would take home the gold.

But people were not about to let Bertrand get away with this Herculean feat of hypocrisy. Last night, Megyn Kelly literally laughed in Bertrand's face for trying to manufacture outrage while simultaneously hoping that everyone would forget her role in two of the biggest lies in American political history.

What?

We have heard a lot of hot takes about "Signalgate" along with calls for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and National Security Advisor Mike Waltz to resign after Atlantic fabulist Jeffrey Goldberg was accidentally invited to a group chat on "classified war plans." But we never imagined that race and sexuality would be brought into the argument. Somehow, though, The Bulwark and MSNBC's Tim Miller managed to do it.

More Fake News .... I guess Der Spiegel NEVER heard of the OPM or NUMEROUS Business Data Breeches





Passwords of Top U.S. Security Officials Found Online – Hegseth, Gabbard, Waltz Among Those Affected​


In a stunning report published on Wednesday, the paper said its journalists “used commercial people search engines along with hacked customer data that has been published on the web.” Those whose information was compromised include Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, and National Security Advisor Mike Waltz.

“Private contact details of the most important security advisers to U.S. President Donald Trump can be found on the internet,” the outlet wrote. “DER SPIEGEL reporters were able to find mobile phone numbers, email addresses and even some passwords belonging to the top officials.”

Spiegel explained:

DER SPIEGEL was able to find some of the contact information for Gabbard, Hegseth and Waltz in commercial databases, while other information was in so-called password leaks, which are hardly a rarity on the internet. One example is the 2019 discovery by Troy Hunt, who found 773 million email addresses and more than 21 million passwords in a hacker forum.

Since then, there have been numerous additional leaks. Criminals are constantly compiling new collections from hacks, usually to sell them on forums.
It was particularly easy for DER SPIEGEL reporters to discover Hegseth’s mobile number and email address. They turned to a commercial provider of contact information that is primarily used by companies for sales, marketing and recruitment.

The revelation comes just two days after Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic published a wild story detailing how Waltz added him to a Signal group chat with Hegseth, Gabbard, Vice President JD Vance, and other top Trump officials, where they discussed a looming airstrike on a Houthi rebel target in Yemen.

How out-of-date were those passwords? If you know you've been breached, you change the password immediately. Otherwise, most online systems that house sensitive (ie banking, etc..) info force a 90 password change. Chance are pretty good the "found" passwords were useless and of no concern.
