Shannen Rossmiller was a retired judge-turned cyber vigilante who infiltrated jihadi groups after 9/11. Shannen was living a quiet life in rural Montana when she watched in horror as the events of 9/11 unfolded. Unlike most people though, she was determined to join the fight. In her spare time, she learned Arabic, studied the Koran, and located potential jihadi chat rooms online. Over the course of the next five years, Shannen built multiple personas online with in-depth backstopping, using them to fully identify and report jihadis to the FBI and other agencies. She taught herself techniques such as sending keyloggers to her contacts hidden within JPEGs so as to pass their online activities over to the FBI. As a private citizen Shannen was able to participate in many online activities that law enforcement agencies could not at the time, due to bureaucratic inertia, funding, and legal restrictions. Two of Shannen’s biggest victories were the arrests and successful prosecutions of Ryan Anderson, a Washington Army National Guard soldier who wanted to help teach Al-Qaeda how to blow up M1 Abrams tanks in Iraq, and Michael Reynolds, who intended to destroy gas pipelines in the United States. She even convinced an overseas arms dealer to send her pictures of himself sitting on crates of stolen Stinger missiles as proof that he could actually deliver on the merchandise he was offering for sale online. By 2007 Shannen had built profiles on over 640 potential jihadis online and passed more than 200 of them to the FBI. She worked closely with the FBI field office in Great Falls, MT. These victories came at a cost. Shannen received many death threats over the years, and her car was shot at on at least one occasion by persons unknown. Nevertheless, she remained dedicated to the fight against terrorism, both at home and abroad. In November 2020, Shannen passed away from complications related to Graves’ disease. #covert #clandestine #vigilante #cybervigilante #tradecraft

On September 30, 2011 President Barack Obama ordered a CIA drone strike and killed United States citizen Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemen. Leon Panetta was the Secretary of Defense. Thomas Massie did not file Articles of Impeachment against Panetta for murdering a US citizen.

You can do better than that, there was another strike on October 14, 2011 that killed his 16-year-old son, Abdulrahman al-Awlaki, also an American citizen Also, American Warren Weinstein was killed on January 14, 2015, in a drone strike in Pakistan's tribal areas near the Afghanistan-Pakistan border

study math. seriously. not just to pass exams or solve equations, but to understand how the world actually works. • algebra → learn to think in relationships, not just numbers • geometry → understand space, shapes, and structure • calculus → understand change, motion, and accumulation • linear algebra → the foundation of robotics, graphics, and machine learning • probability → learn to reason when nothing is certain • differential equations → model how real systems behave over time the beautiful thing about math is that everything connects. the same equations that describe a pendulum can help you understand a robot. the same optimization principles show up in physics, economics, and machine learning. and stop memorizing formulas without understanding where they come from. derive them. visualize them. break them. rebuild them. math isn’t about finding x. it’s about developing a mind that can recognize patterns, understand systems, and solve problems you’ve never seen before.

Federal agents don’t get to hide behind “I was just following orders.” These aren’t street cops. They’re highly trained professionals who took an oath to the Constitution. Internal FBI emails from the Mar-a-Lago case show Washington Field Office agents told DOJ they didn’t believe they had probable cause for the search. DOJ overruled them anyway. So should of did something about it then not now! Agents still worked the file, tracked contacts of Trump staff, and helped build a case that was later dismissed. That’s not ordinary law enforcement. That’s participating in selective, politicized targeting after your own people flagged the problems. “Just following orders” is the excuse people use when they know better and do it anyway. Accountability for that isn’t retribution. It’s overdue. If you can’t recognize when an investigation is being driven by politics instead of facts and law, you don’t belong in the FBI.

This is exactly what I see everywhere I go and what I hear from everyone I talk to: they need more people, not fewer. In fact, many companies are telling me they are stuck because they can't find enough talent in the market. They are already using the latest-and-greatest AI-thingies out there, but they don't have enough warm bodies to operate them. These agents aren't magic. They, for the most part, aren't autonomous. They are cool and all, but they need people who know their stuff. This is even more acute for building software. Yes, anyone can vibe-code simple apps here and there today, but building working software for thousands of user is still very demanding, and agentic coding helps but doesn't work without experts driving it.

Would you own a 1911 chambered in anything other than a .45

Got my #BlueAlpha battle belt today, really looking forward to this upgrade. Dry fire draws n reloads time!! And thx for the stickers❤️ too!!

They've found a perfect spot..🐕🐾🦆🦆🦆🦆😍

A grown man with Combat deployments. SEAL Team 6 and Still got steamrolled. Now picture that same confusion in a 12-year-old. No deployments. No adult brain. Just school, social media, and a clinic ready to hand him blockers, cross-sex hormones, and a conversation about cutting his dick off before he can even rent a car. Beck had years, money, fame, and still said it wrecked his life and faith is what pulled him back. A kid doesn’t get that runway. You freeze puberty, you sterilize him, you operate then “transitioning back” isn’t a choice. It’s damage control. Treat the mental illness. Let the kid be a kid. Stop acting like drugs and the scalpel is compassion.
