Former Virginia congressman reports back from Ukraine Denver Riggleman returned from his most recent trip early Thursday morning after spending recent days dodging drone strikes.

Ukraine’s people are inspiring. Their courage should be contagious. I returned from Ukraine this morning at 1AM.

This is a small part of that trip and the combination of hope & trauma I witnessed as Putin’s army indiscriminately targets civilians-and Ukraine fights on.

I went to where the strikes were in Odessa, Ukraine while I was there… you have to see things first hand— know the ground.

Indiscriminate bombing of civilian neighborhoods. And it’s always happening- not simply Russia responding to Ukrainian drone strikes deep

Denver Checks In From Ukraine Drone Warfare Is The Future

I’M HERE IN UKRAINE

This DENVER AFTER DARK episode covers an insane day in Kherson, dodging drones & visiting those whose lives were destroyed by Putin’s war machine.

Russia murders innocents, but Russia found out that Ukraine has cards to play.

Ukrainians fight on.

I’ve been in Ukraine for a bit.

This war is far from over, despite the awe-inspiring drone strike into Russia by Ukraine… we aren’t even into overtime. Drone warfare is the future. It wasn’t robots we need to worry about in TERMINATOR— it’s the drones. We need to move all the way in now for Ukraine

More #TACO. 🌮

In the law firm executive order cases, DOJ takes the position that an injunction barring implementation will only be enforceable against the govt agencies named in the complaint. So Perkins Coie just amended its complaint to name all the relevant fed agencies. The case caption is now 40 pages long.

Interestingly, if you take out oil & gas, we’ve actually had a trade surplus with Canada for over 15 years.

Great quick reaction podcast with @michaelsteele.bsky.social on Make Mine A Double.

Not only am a former congressman, tech expert, former military intelligence officer and J6 Senior Tech Adviser… I’m also a distiller.

We drag some folks in this pod. Drag.

No words. The US spent somewhere north of 20T in today’s dollars on defense between 1948-89 —in part—to fight the Cold War against the USSR

Today, the US admin staged a show of support for a murderous Russian dictator.

And the real hero sat to the right of the man that’s betraying our country.

Spanberger: I think the governor of Virginia has a primary job, and that is to stand up for Virginia and to stand up for Virginians. What is just unbelievable at this moment is that our governor and our lieutenant governor are doing neither.

Pete Hegseth on FOX NEWS with headline chyron that reads: Tracking Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine.

Secretary of Defense Hegseth says he doesn’t know if Russia invaded Ukraine.

This you?

Johnson aide discouraged Hutchinson subpoena over concerns about lawmakers’ ‘sexual texts’ The move was intended in part to prevent the release of sexually explicit texts that lawmakers sent Cassidy Hutchinson.

Good morning.

Release the texts. I bet some of those texts came from Matt Gaetz.

You have to think the current MAGA party is full of sexual deviants— but also self-professed “Christians”.

YouTube video by PBS NewsHour Former Rep. Riggleman weighs in on implications of Trump’s move to pardon Jan. 6 rioters

There is no g*ddamn corollary between the Biden pre-emptive pardons and the Trump J6 pardons.

Any media personality thinking that is obtuse, shit-brained and un-American.

Any politician spouting that nonsense is insane.

My team deciphered the Mark Meadows’s text messages surrounding January 6th.

We found the Ginny Thomas texts.

We created the “Monster” call analysis from over 30M data lines.

We found the links.

Accountability didn’t happen. The people spoke. Around 80M voters didn’t care about J6.

I care.

“How do you run a government if so many people that are making policy believe in fantasies and disinformation?” @denverr.bsky.social weighs in on the “delusional and deranged” idea that January 6th should be a national holiday of celebration.

Alicia Menendez @aliciamenendez.bsky.social offered some sage election advice during your interview today, Denver, so herewith, please find your placeholder yard sign ... 😀. @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.social

I said a lot more than that…

The end of the interview rocks and rolls

Let’s keep this in mind, devout Christian Speaker Johnson tried to keep the house from releasing this report because he wanted Gaetz to be attorney general.

Typical

I was in Ukraine in September with a humanitarian convoy. The hotel I stayed at was just heavily damaged during a Russian missile attack. It reminds me of the strength of the Ukrainian people & only increases my resolve to return. Slava Ukraini.

I was the Senior Technical Advisor for the January 6th Select Committee.

I don’t want a pardon

I want a bar fight.

This is the type of “evidence” that the congressional oversight committee and the “Weaponization” committee relied on to investigate Hunter Biden.

As many know, our forensics team knew that the supposed data released from the so-called laptop had no forensic chain of custody & had irregularities.

This video reminded me of the phrase "Ignorance is curable but stupidity is forever."

Bird Flu Virus Identified In Raw Milk Sold In California The bird flu virus has been detected in raw milk for sale in California. No infections have been reported yet and the product has been recalled by the retailer.

Any proponent of raw milk guzzling is an idiot. RFK Jr. fits that profile.

Of course, everyone has the right to be an idiot. But food safety is actually a “thing”.

The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of *them* are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s

We had the successor ready to ship but it was killed by the powers that be since the IP was owned by Microsoft.
