The #WashingtonPost reports that #DefenseSecretary #PeteHegseth’s infamous #Signal messages regarding strikes on #Yemen — which were shared in a group chat that inadvertently included Atlantic editor in chief #JeffreyGoldberg — derived from a classified email from General #MichaelKurilla, according to evidence obtained by the #Pentagon inspector general’s office.

TRUMP HAS ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION!
THE MEDIA NEEDS TO STOP CALLING ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION 'CHRONIC VENOUS INSUFFICIENCY!
FUCK YOU WITH THAT BULLSHIT!
TRUMP CAN NOT GET HIS LIL' "MUSHROOM" DICK HARD...
JUST IN TIME FOR MORE RAPE CHARGES.
THE PRESS NEEDS TO FOCUS MORE ON EPSTEIN AND TRUMP RAPING CHILDREN TOGETHER!
CLICK! CLICK!
RELEASE TRUMP'S LETTER TO HIS "PAL' JEFFREY EPSTEIN!
RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!

Phillip Bump's farewell after being downsized by #ElHefe #Bezos #WashingtonPost is commentary focused on #DJT being unable to simply sell his once most vocal voters & spirited supporters on quietly closing down the #Epstein matter, revealing political perils of building a #MAGA movement bent on stoking #suspicions , cherry picking perspectives, and tearing down #trust in institutions.

Meanwhile as I go to post @pbump link, I see several other #publications, including #Atlantic have articles shared on how the pedantic #Prez primed his own base to not trust him, and other similar takes on the ongoing hopelessly spinning shifty #scandal and inability to stop the #story from spiraling with unintended consequences...

The CIA reveals more of its connections to #LeeHarveyOswald

from #WashingtonPost #WaPo
July 14, 2025 at 6:00am EDT
By Tom Jackman

For more than 60 years, the CIA claimed it had little or no knowledge of Lee Harvey Oswald’s activities before the assassination of President #JohnFKennedy in November 1963. That wasn’t true, new documents unearthed by a House task force prove. The revelation adds fuel to the long-simmering questions around what the agency knew about the plot to murder the president, and what else it may be hiding.

The documents confirm that #GeorgeJoannides, a #CIA officer based in #Miami in 1963, was helping finance and oversee a group of #Cuban students opposed to the ascension of #FidelCastro. #Joannides had a covert assignment to manage anti-Castro propaganda and disrupt pro-#Castro groups, even as the CIA was prohibited from domestic spying.

Los Angeles: Thousands Denounce ICE Raids in July 4 Protest

from #WorldOutlook
July 5, 2025

"The article below first appeared in the #LosAngeles Times on July 5, 2025. The protest the article describes was a fitting way to mark #US Independence Day, given the #Trump administration’s intensified workplace raids and #deportations of undocumented #immigrants. L.A. has been the epicenter of many such protests over the last month since the White House picked the city to launch its aggressive dragnet, carried out by Immigration and Customs Enforcement #(ICE) agents, targeting millions of workers across the country.

As a recent article published by the #WashingtonPost revealed, ICE arrests have more than doubled since Trump took office in January, compared to the same period last year."
