    Yep, understood. My guess is that it's satire since it seems to be from the Onion.

    Looks like we've got a whole new definition of military readiness:

    "Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth recently ordered modifications to a room next to the Pentagon press briefing room to retrofit it with a makeup studio that can be used to prepare for television appearances"

    Saw somebody call him Pete Kegseth on Reddit and I just wanted to say, that's fucking hilarious.

    House Republicans blocked investigation. Weaker of the House Johnson said they would not waste time on pointless investigations. Unlike Hunter Biden's laptop.

    Fox News is reporting that Mike Waltz is out as Donald Trump's National Security Advisor along with his deputy national security advisor, Alex Wong. This comes after the massive Signalgate fiasco adding The Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg to a group chat.

    The Signal Clone the Trump Admin Uses Was Hacked

    A hacker has breached and stolen customer data from TeleMessage, an obscure Israeli company that sells modified versions of Signal and other messaging apps to the U.S. government to archive messages, 404 Media has learned. The data stolen by the hacker contains the contents of some direct messages and group chats sent using its Signal clone, as well as modified versions of WhatsApp, Telegram, and WeChat. TeleMessage was recently the center of a wave of media coverage after Mike Waltz accidentally revealed he used the tool in a cabinet meeting with President Trump.

    The hack shows that an app gathering messages of the highest ranking officials in the government—Waltz’s chats on the app include recipients that appear to be Marco Rubio, Tulsi Gabbard, and JD Vance—contained serious vulnerabilities that allowed a hacker to trivially access the archived chats of some people who used the same tool. The hacker has not obtained the messages of cabinet members, Waltz, and people he spoke to, but the hack shows that the archived chat logs are not end-to-end encrypted between the modified version of the messaging app and the ultimate archive destination controlled by the TeleMessage customer.

    Data related to Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the cryptocurrency giant Coinbase, and other financial institutions are included in the hacked material, according to screenshots of messages and backend systems obtained by 404 Media.
