    To answer your question, the "files" weren't released yet, per se. The EO was signed to declassify the JFK and MLK files. That being said, almost all JFK files have already been released and are publicly available online, some in the 90s and the rest in 2017 and 2018 (per the 1992 order). Further, the files are 50 years old now which is a default declassification date for most classified documents. I guess the EO is focused on any remaining redacted sections that have been "in review" since 2017 or so by Agencies. Again, the files have been available for many years. I doubt any remaining redacted stuff will be game changing, but I guess we'll see. There are still folks who think JFK Jr is returning and that we never landed on the moon so my confidence that we can handle information intelligently is low.

    I thought nothing was off the table to appease negotiate with Putin?

    Crenshaw in particular is an absolute poser. Seal or not, that guy is a poser.

    Maybe he assumed they were too incompetent to ever figure it out no matter how obvious it was.

Muto held separate talks with U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick in Washington, two days before Trump's 25 percent tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports are due to take effect.

    As for him, let him apply to enter legally (an option since voluntarily self deported). May his wait be short.

    @Horace said in Pick fights with allies, signal weakness to adversaries: Just indefensible to appoint that guy to anything. I read that this was actually Rubio's appointment. https://x.com/kfile/status/1899074764775231899?s=46

    @taiwan_girl said in Watcha drinking?: LOL. That is what they told me it was, and the menu told me. 555. More than one, and I probably would have been spinning. Ketel One Vodka, Ginger Beer, Lime Juice, Mint, Lime Wedge. https://www.mazzarobkk.com/_files/ugd/0a0dc1_d356de071c47476aaa0780cc644c8ee1.pdf?index=true Yup! That's the right recipe. My favorite is Ketel One as well.
