El-Sayed: "Once a government agency like ICE is told it has impunity to do the worst things and violate the highest law of the land, which is the Constitution itself, I don't think you can reform or retrain. I think we need to start from scratch ... I think we need to abolish it."
Our webinar is next week! Join The Vertex Project and Team Cymru to see how graph-native analysis and global network telemetry help analysts move beyond IOC chasing to uncover connected infrastructure, hidden relationships, and faster investigative outcomes. 🔗 Register: hubs.la/Q04rHr6S0
@wsj.com is threatening us with a good time again 🙄 The sheer entitlement of calling it "shunning" when the truth is "not giving special treatment to" is staggering. Keep up the excellent work @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social 💪 👍
New York City’s business elites are long accustomed to direct access to City Hall, where even Democratic mayors felt the need to court the city’s wealthiest and most influential corporate leaders. That access is getting shredded by Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

Russian war criminals hunted a vegetable seller through Kherson with an FPV drone. ㅤ He was unarmed. The drone followed him and struck. He was wounded, but survived. ㅤ This is deliberate FPV terror against civilians, filmed and treated as something to boast about. The world must see it.
Data rarely has the courtesy to fit neatly into one box. With Synapse 3, properties don’t have to either. See how polymorphic properties let a single property support multiple types without losing their distinct meaning or behavior: hubs.la/Q04rHdVL0 #Synapse #DataModeling

The entire cybersecurity industry, including governments, are busy giving themselves blowjobs about GenAI when Iran's breaking in by doing stuff which was novel in 1995.

In the latest episode of Signals & Stories, @threathuntergirl.bsky.social unpacks the ideas behind her viral "Hard Cyber Threat Intel Pills to Swallow" graphic and the lessons that shape better analysts. What's one "hard pill" every CTI analyst should accept? podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/e...
Wait. They're still having the correspondents dinner after the NYT subpoena thing? Seriously?
An invitation to join me in protest: Everyday, at 12N Eastern Time, for as long as it takes, I'm going to post the following: "The President of the United States is a liar." Just that line, no more, no less. The goal is to flood social media with thousands of identical posts.
I want to know how many caller's lives are worth not having to hire human 911 dispatchers, or pay them a decent wage. Because this will kill people. Not get people killed. AI use in 911 answering will actively kill people.
Two analyst teams once disagreed over attribution so intensely it nearly turned into a fistfight. 😅 The lesson isn't self-defense. It's this: great intelligence means challenging assumptions, questioning conclusions, and changing your mind when the evidence does. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Awvv...
Voted NO on the $1 trillion Pentagon budget. We have a moral responsibility to stop writing blank checks for endless wars and invest in our communities. My statement with @pocan.house.gov. 🧵
Being able to represent the whole story is critical to threat actor attribution. Can your platform represent analytically relevant lunch orders? 😉 PoL is now "Pattern of Lunch" ctrlaltintel.com/research/Voi...

Our big final planning exercise for Expeditionary Warfare School back in 2010 was an amphibious assault on Bandar e Jask, then pushing along the coast up past Minab, with a simultaneous seizure of Qeshm Island. We all joked at the time that the real lesson was “This is a terrible fucking idea.”
Been through a handful of Army Leader Professional Development trainings which could have been titled "why we shouldn't invade Iran" which largely consisted of someone slapping this map on a PowerPoint slide and pointing out that Iran has three times the land and twice the population of Iraq.
19-year-old Pvt. Isabella Gonzales died defending this country. Think about that while politicians demonize immigrants and terrorize Latino communities. Americans with names like Gonzales have always fought, bled, and died for this nation. RIP to her and Lt. Tyler Feehan. 🇺🇸
