ASSASSIN@TION: With just months left in office the Biden-Harris regime decided to update the 17 year old Bush-era directive against assassin@tion of Americans. Why would the regime feel the need to legalize killing Americans who threaten the foundations of our democracy?
In a chilling and unambiguous act, the Biden-Harris regime has recently updated the 2007 DoD Directive 5240.01, stripping away crucial protections that safeguarded American citizens from government-sanctioned assassin@tions. The original directive contained an explicit prohibition, stating, "Under no circumstances shall any DoD Component or DoD employee engage in, or conspire to engage in, assassin@tion." This unequivocal language has been removed, paving the way for a dangerous new precedent that authorizes the targeting of both American citizens and foreign nationals—both on domestic soil and abroad—under vague and ominous "special circumstances."
This egregious alteration marks a perilous departure from the established norms that have historically protected the civil liberties of U.S. citizens. The notion that the government can now potentially authorize the assassination of Americans under the guise of national security is nothing short of a constitutional crisis. It opens a Pandora's box where the executive branch could circumvent legal processes and judicial oversight, allowing for a chilling expansion of government power and an alarming erosion of individual rights.
The Biden-Harris regime’s willingness to authorize assassin@tion reflects a profound disregard for the sanctity of American lives and the rule of law. It exemplifies a troubling trend toward authoritarianism, where the state’s interests are prioritized over the rights of individuals. By enabling the targeting of U.S. citizens—often without the checks and balances that judicial oversight provides—the regime is setting a dangerous precedent that could lead to abuses of power reminiscent of the darkest chapters in our nation’s history.
Moreover, the implications extend beyond mere policy shifts; they signal a fundamental transformation in the relationship between the government and its citizens. The ability of the state to conduct targeted killings without due process undermines the very foundations of our democratic society, where the rule of law and the protection of individual rights have been paramount. It raises unsettling questions: Who decides what constitutes a "threat"? What criteria are used to determine when such extreme measures are warranted?
This new directive does not merely modify existing procedures; it fundamentally alters the landscape of governmental authority and individual rights in America. As we stand at this critical juncture, we must remain vigilant and resolute in our defense of civil liberties. The implications of the Biden-Harris regime’s actions demand serious reflection and urgent action from all who cherish the freedoms granted to us by our Constitution.
In conclusion, the recent updates to DoD Directive 5240.01 should serve as a clarion call for all Americans. The stripping away of prohibitions against assassin@tion represents not just a policy change, but a grave threat to the very essence of our democratic principles. We must rally together to demand accountability, transparency, and a reaffirmation of the rights that define our great nation. The time to act is now; let us not allow this regime to tread upon the rights of the American people without consequence.
Feds warn [again] of ongoing cyberattacks on controllers (PLCs).
A joint (FBI/NSA/CISA/DOJ/DOE/EPA) advisory has again warned that cyberattacks are targeting the Siemens S7 PLCs used across "critical manufacturing, energy, water & wastewater, chemical, food & agriculture, and commercial facilities."
The advisory specifies "This is not a theoretical risk—it is an active threat" (which feels like LLM to me with the "not an X but Y" and em-dash, but hey ... let's set aside the issue of intelligence agencies using ChatGPT to craft their advisories :-p )
Actors are scanning the internet for exposed/insecure Siemens S7 devices and using AI-generated exploitation scripts to access and control them.
This tracks with the recent attacks on water systems in multiple states recently, and the threat escalation throughout the year, generally blamed on "Iranian hackers" such as Handala. It's been a drip-drip-drip in the mockingbird media which seems to be setting the stage for the WEF's ...
A teenager was murdered and his testicles removed by a gang who believed they could sell them for nearly £100,000 on the black market, Indian police have said.
The suspects, allegedly inspired by a social media video promoting a false claim about the value of human testicles, killed Rehan, aged 17, before cutting his testicles off with a blade.
Police arrested the prime suspect, Zoheb Khan, a 20-year-old business student, and Aamir Qureshi, 18, and detained three minors.
Investigators alleged that Khan recruited the group and convinced them that testicles could fetch about 12 million Indian rupees (£92,465) on the black market in the Gulf.
