Just when I think the *waves around* cannot get any worse the #CosmicJoker laughs and draws one more card from the Deck of #Fuckery.

What in the fresh hell is this shit?

On the race to preserve essential data and information that the #PendejoInChief and his regime want to erase.

Worth a read but TBH, I'd say the bottom line is they do not have some "strategic" value to places like the U.S. Otherwise, the #AmericanEmpire would've invaded by now.

Not surprised, not one bit.

If stuff like freedom of information and keeping the #USGovernment accountable are important to you, maybe you need to pay attention to this.

Oh well, it's not like the #RealOwners want an educated populace anyways.

The usual Friday evening document dump - #RFK #assassination files released by #Trump administration. Records from the State Department and #FBI have been unsealed; #Gabbard says 50,000 more pages are still to come. #govdocs #foia #assassination #research #government #politics #FBI https://www.archives.gov/research/rfk scroll down - each document is is in #pdf

In follow up, in case you wondered what they removed. I'd say for some #libraries this is a good collection development tool. And yes, I saved a copy for myself.

Dude, just cite your sources so that folks can follow your presentation. :/

Of interest for some. This is basically the "credit card limit" the Man has that he keeps cheating on by raising the limit every year (you hear this in the news, OMG if no one raises the limit, government shuts down).

In contrast, you and me, for most part, can't go over credit limit (or if we do, bad things happen).
