This is his official tweet:

A very Happy Thanksgiving salutation to all of our Great American Citizens and Patriots who have been so nice in allowing our Country to be divided, disrupted, carved up, murdered, beaten, mugged, and laughed at, along with certain other foolish countries throughout the World, for being “Politically Correct,” and just plain STUPID, when it comes to Immigration. The official United States Foreign population stands at 53 million people (Census), most of which are on welfare, from failed nations, or from prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels. They and their children are supported through massive payments from Patriotic American Citizens who, because of their beautiful hearts, do not want to openly complain or cause trouble in any way, shape, or form. They put up with what has happened to our Country, but it’s eating them alive to do so! A migrant earning $30,000 with a green card will get roughly $50,000 in yearly benefits for their family. The real migrant population is much higher. This refugee burden is the leading cause of social dysfunction in America, something that did not exist after World War II (Failed schools, high crime, urban decay, overcrowded hospitals, housing shortages, and large deficits, etc.). As an example, hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia are completely taking over the once great State of Minnesota. Somalian gangs are roving the streets looking for “prey” as our wonderful people stay locked in their apartments and houses hoping against hope that they will be left alone. The seriously retarded Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, does nothing, either through fear, incompetence, or both, while the worst “Congressman/woman” in our Country, Ilhan Omar, always wrapped in her swaddling hijab, and who probably came into the U.S.A. illegally in that you are not allowed to marry your brother, does nothing but hatefully complain about our Country, its Constitution, and how “badly” she is treated, when her place of origin is a decadent, backward, and crime ridden nation, which is essentially not even a country for lack of Government, Military, Police, schools, etc…

^{Trump's Truth}

The leaked assessment, obtained by the New York Post and prepared for both congressional Senate and House judiciary committees, is based on confidential accounts from 24 FBI sources.

They accuse Patel of lacking the experience to lead the FBI and that managers will not take initiative without explicit direction for fear of being fired. Patel’s first six months have produced a “troubling picture” of an organization described by insiders as a “rudderless ship”, with two sources independently characterizing the director as being “in over his head”. One stated he “lacks the requisite knowledge or deep understanding of all the FBI’s unique and complex investigative and intelligence programs”.

One key accusation is that the FBI has become “internally paralyzed by fear”. Managers are “afraid of losing their jobs”, and “waiting on directions from the FBI director” rather than taking initiative, according to multiple sources.

The Trump administration's latest campaign for SNAP changes comes as millions of recipients are already poised to lose benefits in the coming years as states begin to implement new work requirements and eligibility rules that Republicans in Congress passed over the summer that are the deepest cuts in history to the program.

In a Fox Business interview last month, Rollins said the further changes she is proposing will "make sure those vulnerable Americans who really need that benefit are going to get it. And for all the rest of the fraudsters and the people who are corrupt and taking advantage of it — we're going to protect the taxpayer, too."

Food policy experts say they are concerned that Rollins' talking points suggest a distorted view of the prevalence of SNAP recipients committing fraud, and seem to conflate fraud with payment errors of any kind.

Researchers at the conservative-leaning American Enterprise Institute have argued this eligibility rule should be ended because states are using it to allow people with incomes above the limit set by the SNAP statute to receive the benefit. Though they also cautioned that eliminating broad-based categorical eligibility must be done in a way that addresses "benefit cliffs" that would disincentivize people from earning slightly more because they would lose benefits and become worse off.

Over the past year, Silicon Valley has gone fully mask off in favor of fascism and oligarchy. Gone are the days of the Valley’s veneer of idealistic futurism, where technology was supposed to level the playing field and make us more connected than ever.

What we have instead is a technological playground catered to the whims of the ultra-wealthy. They throw billions behind designer gene edited babies and cryogenic freezing and consciousness uploading and sycophantic slop machines. They indulge in sci-fi fantasies of space colonization and metaverses and the technological singularity, repurposing dystopian warnings as aspirational goals. Their most “visionary” ambition is that of artificial techno-utopia, in which we merge with computers and become superior post-humans, our digital hands running through digital grass as we inhale the digital simulation of pine forests, scents and sights that have been fully subsumed by the capitalist religion of infinite growth.

Technology is often talked about as an inherent good, and the latest and greatest tech, be it surveillance or AI, are said to be inevitable. You must embrace these technologies or be left behind. If you bring up the real-world harms, you are dismissed as a closed-minded, anti-progress technology-hater.

The inevitability narrative obfuscates the fact that all of these technologies resulted from decisions. Decisions by out-of-touch, overwhelmingly white, male billionaires who refuse any and all ways of seeing the world that challenges their ability to increase their already obscene wealth.

President Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer Alina Habba, whom the administration has maneuvered to keep in place as New Jersey top federal prosecutor, is disqualified from serving in the role, an appeal court said Monday.

A panel of judges from the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals sitting in Philadelphia sided with a lower court judge’s ruling after hearing oral arguments at which Habba herself was present on Oct. 20.

The ruling comes amid the push by President Donald Trump’s Republican administration to keep Habba as the acting U.S. attorney for New Jersey, a powerful post charged with enforcing federal criminal and civil law. It also comes after the judges questioned the government’s moves to keep Habba in place after her interim appointment expired and without her getting Senate confirmation.

Indiana House Republicans released a proposed map with new congressional district lines Dec. 1 that could lead to the elimination of the two Democrats from the state's congressional delegation if passed.

They got the votes for this by threatening to firebomb the home of any Republican state legislator who wouldn't go along.

DeepSeek has released V3.2, replacing the experimental version. There are two main models are open as always and can be downloaded from Hugging Face:

• V3.2: General-purpose, balanced performance (GPT‑5 level)
• V3.2‑Speciale: Specialized for complex reasoning (Gemini‑3.0‑Pro level)

V3.2 can now "think" while using tools (like searching the web, running code, or calling APIs). This makes AI assistants more transparent and better at multi‑step tasks. You can choose thinking mode (slower but more thorough) or non‑thinking mode (faster for simple tasks).

Key improvements are better reasoning transparency with the model explaining the steps when using tools, and stronger performance on benchmarks.
