Help step bro I'm stuck

You stood up for Mitnick.
You stood up for Marcus Hutchins.
You stood up for Anonymous.
Aaron Swartz.
Ed Snowden.
Chelsea Manning.
Ross Ulbricht.

You stood up for them, regardless of whether you agreed with them. It was the right thing to do.

Now it’s time to stand up for Chris Krebs.

🔊 Listen Now: A whistleblower's disclosure details how DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data All Things Considered on NPR One | 7:13

Happy Friday everyone. Thanks for reading NPR.org this week.

Wanted to take a second to also remind you: I interviewed whistleblower Dan Berulis to accompany my lengthy written story on NLRB. Hear from him in his own words:

one.npr.org/i/nx-s1-5355...

🧵 THREAD: A federal whistleblower just dropped one of the most disturbing cybersecurity disclosures I’ve ever read.

He's saying DOGE came in, data went out, and Russians started attempting logins with new valid DOGE passwords

Media's coverage wasn't detailed enough so I dug into his testimony:

Alright, I think people knew of the tariff pause and traded it beforehand.

You can see before Trump posted "buy" on Truth Social, traders opened $QQQ $TQQQ and $SPY calls

RIGHT BEFORE THE NEWS, someone opened $SPY 509 calls, expiring TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those calls are up 2100% in one hour.

ME: I’d like to donate my body to science

DOCTOR: ok

ME: like right now

At this rate MAGA will only be able to afford to rent the libs.

Stand for what you believe in

Where are the Russian tariffs?

I heard these people like anime, maybe this will help convey the message.

"these tariffs are going to ruin my business"

It all makes sense now…

Inflationary impact Long-term impact on prices under a scenario where US imposes universal 25% tariffs and all impacted countries retaliate with equal measures (% change) 4 US Canada Mexico Netherlands Belgium Brazil UK Spain France Poland| Germany South Korea Italy Ireland Japan| India l China 5.5 2 0.8 0.3 0.1 | 0.1- -0.1 -0.2 -0.4 -0.4 -0.4 -0.5 -0.5 -0.6 -0.7 -0.7 Source: Du/Shepotylo (2025), Aston Business School • *10% on Canada energy and extra 20% on China

Prices are actually predicted to fall in the UK and many other countries because of Trump’s tariffs - but massively rise in America, according to a study by Aston Business School published in the FT.

It's unfair to say that what Trump's doing is unprecedented. Ninety-five years ago, the Smoot Hawley Tariff Act helped turn a recession into the Great Depression.
