‘Racist as hell’: Trump’s cabinet is almost all white, and he keeps firing Black officials
President’s targeting of Fed governor Lisa Cook highlights his efforts to remove diverse voices from government
A day after Donald Trump announced that he was firing Lisa Cook, the first Black woman to serve on the board of governors of the Federal Reserve, the White House proudly released a photo. It showed Trump, his cabinet and other officials giving a thumbs-up. Of the 24 people in the Oval Office, only one was Black.
For those who have studied the US president’s long and troubling history of racism, the two events were more than mere coincidence. They were indicative of a man who has recently brought white nationalist perspectives from the margins back to the mainstream.
Trump has vehemently denied that he is a racist, pointing to a modest increase in support among African American voters in last year’s election, when his opponent was a Black woman. But critics suggest that his effort to oust Cook fits a pattern of purging diverse voices from the higher ranks of leadership.

Senior Pentagon official had affair with ‘notorious’ astrologer who stalked him, lawsuit says
Anthony Tata, Trump’s undersecretary of defense for personnel and readiness, files defamation lawsuit in Florida
A senior Pentagon official in Donald Trump’s administration had a months-long extramarital affair with a woman claiming to be “the internet’s most notorious astrologer” – and claims in a defamation lawsuit filed in Florida that she cyberstalked him and his wife after they split up.
Court papers in Palm Beach county allege that Amy Tripp, known as Starheal to her tens of thousands of social media followers, was so upset by the end of the relationship that she repeatedly threatened and harassed the victim, identified as Anthony Tata, who assumed office as the undersecretary of defense for personnel and readiness in July.
Tata – a 65-year-old former Fox News contributor, retired army brigadier general and author of a series of military-themed novels – has previously made numerous Islamophobic and inflammatory comments, including calling Barack Obama a “terrorist leader”.

Stumbled on a Kickstarter project for a cloud server of your own, installed at your home. What are pro’s and con’s of a private cloud and what do you need? Is there software to manage backups and sync between devices? The project comes with apps but I wonder if there isn’t already tech available? (Both soft- and hardware.) When going full Linux this could provide even more private control over data.

Sheringa Cemetery, Sheringa, South Australia.
Located near the Flinders Highway in the District Council of Elliston, Sheringa Cemetery serves as a modest but poignant resting place for generations of local families, pioneers, and pastoral workers.
Though small in scale, it reflects the rhythms of rural life on the Eyre Peninsula - marked by resilience, isolation, and deep familial ties.

"Users of Big Tech services are forced to accept practices that directly and negatively affect personal rights. The lack of user ability to fully ‘opt out’ gives these companies the power to dictate the digital engagement rules in a way that can harm human rights. These companies shape access to information for millions of us and even manipulate our opinions at scale. They spend millions lobbying politicians to shape the rules in their favour. They also buy up competition and enforce rules on other companies that make it difficult for competitors to thrive. Leaving us with no real choice – we either use their services or are cut off from most of the internet."
