This story demonstrates why the right wing’s mantra of ever “smaller government” is lethal. It’s the role of government to make sure products and services are safe.

When the Trump administration came into power, it shrunk the EPA.

Both parties are not the same, nor are they only marginally different or whatever nonsense some enjoy spouting out. #ElectDemocrats

EPA bans asbestos, a deadly carcinogen still in use decades after a partial ban was enacted-

SUSPECT INTERROGATED

TV editor Simonyan published a video showing a suspect, a young bearded man, being interrogated aggressively by a roadside, replying in heavily accented Russian to a series of barked questions. He said he’d flown from Turkey Mar4 & received instructions from unknown people via Telegram to carry out the attack in exchange for money.

My thanks to the NBC execs who have hired failed RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel as a political commentator on MSNBC. At last I can unglue myself from the channel and perhaps read a book, do a crossword puzzle, take a walk. I'm finding that the fear of Ronna suddenly showing up on my TV is actually quite liberating.

@skykiss Any government that grants this man a security clearance is not serious about security

This INFURIATES me. Officers swear an oath. Once they've committed crimes--they're worse than any criminal--because they know better! https://masto.ai/@lovelylovely/112137216721217854

Last night, about 21 hours ago, Manfred Paul demonstrated a security exploit targeting Firefox 124 at pwn2own.

In response, we have just published Firefox 124.0.1 (and Firefox ESR 115.9.1) containing the security fix.

Please update your foxes! 🦊

Kudos to all the countless people postponing their sleep and working towards resolving this so quickly! Really impressive teamwork again. Also, kudos to Manfred for pwning Firefox again :)
