“Fascism may be defined as a form of political behavior marked by obsessive preoccupation with community decline, humiliation, or victimhood and by compensatory cults of unity, energy, and purity, in which a mass-based party of committed nationalist militants, working in uneasy but effective collaboration with traditional elites, abandons democratic liberties and pursues with redemptive violence and without ethical or legal restraints goals of internal cleansing and external expansion.”

(via BREAKING: Full Leaked Signal Message Chain Just Released!)

It’s all right here FFS.

In a stunning leak obtained by The Atlantic, private Signal messages from a group chat involving the bombing of Yemen, have just been released by Jeffrey Goldberg and The Atlantic.

The entire text thread is below but first I want to bring attention to the worst of the texts, which clearly show plans for attacking Yemen, messaged to the group by Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.

(via I Indexed All of Project 2025 - by Kellie in the Know)

Firstly, I want to thank everyone who has supported this effort through words of encouragement, subscribing here, or offers to help. I underestimated how mentally and emotionally draining this endeavor would be, but knowing I was creating something that other people found useful and saw value in, while we are being bombarded with attacks from the Trump Administration every day, kept me going.

After nearly two weeks of reading and cataloging almost 900 pages of policy proposals, the Project 2025 Index and Tracker is ready for you.

'How Out Of Touch Are You?': Melanie Stansbury Sounds Off On House GOP O...

The fact that she's not cussing is admirable. God, Republicans are totally worthless.

The Trump Regime is a government by losers, of losers and for losers.

The Atlantic magazine on Wednesday published messages sent among top officials in President Donald Trump’s administration on the encrypted app Signal that included operational details of military strikes against the Iranian-backed Houthi militant group in Yemen. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and other officials have denied that “war plans” were shared in the chat, which inadvertently included a journalist. The messages published Wednesday including specific times of planned strikes. Some top Trump administration intelligence officials are appearing Wednesday before the House Intelligence Committee for a previously scheduled hearing.

"The Navajo teach their children that every morning when the sun comes up, it’s a brand-new sun. It’s born each morning, it lives for the duration of one day, and in the evening it passes on, never to return again. As soon as the children are old enough to understand, the adults take them out at dawn and they say, ‘The sun has only one day. You must live this day in a good way, so that the sun won’t have wasted precious time.’ Acknowledging the preciousness of each day is a good way to live, a good way to reconnect with our basic joy." - Pema Chödrön

Sociopath needlessly wrecking the lives of American citizens.

On Thursday, March 20th, 2025, Donald Trump announced that he signed a lawless executive order to shutter the US Department of Education, but to fully shut it down, Congressional approval is required. This is yet another Project 2025 goal item being checked off by the Trump Regime, harming quality education in the process. The DoE became a Cabinet-level organization in 1979 under President Jimmy Carter (D), and ever since then, conservatives have waged war against the entity by calling for its closure. [...] The dismantling of the US Department of Education will have very negative consequences for America’s education, especially for special needs programs, discrimination prevention tools, and student loans.

My latest on The JGibson Report: The Project 2025-inspired dismantling of the US Department of Education by the Trump Regime will lead to disastrous outcomes for the quality of education, especially for special needs programs, discrimination prevention tools, and student loans.

Women at sea

Paul Daniels

'Paul' had the bad luck to be spotted by an eagle-eyed sergeant when he was exercising some soldiers on board a transport ship at Portsmouth in 1761.

He thought young Paul Daniels ‘had a more prominent chest than ordinary'. He sent for him to come to his cabin after the drill, and told him his suspicions. Daniels, to avoid a physical search, ‘confessed her sex’. 

Arthur Douglas

Only five feet tall and aged about 19, 'Arthur' worked as a landsman on board the privateer ship the Resolution. Working his passage from London to Liverpool, he went aloft to furl the sails, ‘was frequently mustered among the Marines at the time they exercised’ the small firearms, and generally seemed to be of ‘very modest character, and by his behaviour to have had a genteel education'.

It wasn’t until the ship docked at Liverpool that the truth came out that Arthur was actually a teenage girl. One of the messmates on board discovered her sex and tried to sleep with her. She agreed ‘to prevent a discovery of her sex to the whole ship', but when they landed refused to keep her word, so the Captain was told.

Jane Meace

Jane tried to enlist as a Marine in 1762. In Uttoxeter, a young man ‘came to a recruiting party of Marines’ being held at an alehouse called The Plume and Feathers. 

He enlisted as John Meace and asked for all his bounty money, but only got one shilling, as they thought he needed ‘cloathing and other necessaries'. However, the following morning her sex was discovered by ‘one of the men laying hold of her coat over the breast to see how it fitted'.

Hannah Witney

Hannah Witney's story dates from 20 October 1761. A young man who had been impressed (press-ganged) at Plymouth was sent to one Captain Toby. On arrival he was put in prison, but not liking it disclosed that he was in fact a young woman.

The naval report says that she was 'Born in Ireland, had been a Marine on board different ships for upwards five years’, and that she would not have ‘disclosed herself’ if she had been ‘allowed her liberty'. This was duly granted. A naval report included details of a young Lady ‘on board the Fleet in Man’s Apparel, who showed all the signs of most undaunted Valour'.  

Several other women, the report continued, ‘are still living and some of them in this Town who have served whole campaigns and fought stroke by stroke by the most manly soldiers'.

They, like so many other valiant women who rallied to the patriotic call to defend their country, will remain unknown. But those now listed will have a place in the military and social history books.

The use of Signal to plan a military attack on Yemen was itself an astonishingly dangerous breach, but what comes next is simply mind-boggling: the reason Goldberg could report on the conversation is that the person setting it up included Goldberg—a reporter without security clearance—in it.
