X Under Massive Cyber Attack
Posted By: Dreadnought, 3/10/2025 10:26:42 PM
If you’ve been trying to get on X today and are having trouble, you’re not alone. It appears that the left’s assault on Elon Musk's enterprises has taken a disturbing digital turn. X has suffered an unprecedented three major outages in a single day, with a mysterious hacker group called "Dark Storm Team" brazenly claiming responsibility for what appears to be a coordinated attack on conservative free speech. Users worldwide encountered a barrage of technical difficulties: login failures, content loading problems, and widespread access disruptions. Elon Musk addressed the attacks Monday afternoon. “There was (still is) a massive cyberattack against 𝕏,”

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin announced Monday on social media that he is cutting multiple diversity equity and inclusion (DEI) programs, resulting in billions in taxpayer savings.
How some of these programs benefited the environment is anybody’s guess:
…Lee Zeldin said on Monday he canceled 400 environmental justice and diversity, equity and inclusion grants totaling $1.7 billion in the Trump administration's latest crackdown on DEI initiatives.
The EPA did not immediately respond to a request for comment on details about the cancellation.
Since taking office on January 20, Republican President Donald Trump has passed executive orders aimed at dismantling DEI in the government and private sector.
Egg Prices Plummet

New data suggests that soaring egg prices, which became a flashpoint issue during last year's presidential election, may finally be falling.
Figures released by the U.S. Department of Agriculture show that the average cost of one dozen eggs is now significantly cheaper than in recent days. The economic indicator website Trading Economics shows that a dozen eggs were $5.51 on Tuesday, more than $2 cheaper than "an all-time high of 8.17 in March of 2025."
Newsweek reached out to the White House via email for comment. Egg prices have skyrocketed to historic levels over the past year, with wholesalers
The United States and Ukraine, on Tuesday, released a joint statement that Ukraine was agreeing to a 30-day cease-fire in the war with Russia - presuming Russia likewise agrees. The announcement came after negotiations between Ukraine and the United States hosted by Saudi Arabia.
Ukraine said it would accept a 30-day ceasefire with Russia after talks with the U.S. in Saudi Arabia aimed at ending the fighting on Tuesday, according to a statement issued by the U.S. and Ukraine.
The agreement came after more than eight hours of negotiations between Ukrainian officials and a U.S. delegation led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio in the Saudi city of Jeddah.
The Trump administration just chalked up another win. On Tuesday, the premier of the Canadian province of Ontario, who had slapped a 25 percent surcharge on electricity exported from that province to the American states of Minnesota, Michigan, and New York, relented after the Trump administration proposed a new round of tariffs. The premier took to X to announce that he was suspending the electricity surcharge. Today, United States Secretary of Commerce @howardlutnick and Premier of Ontario Doug Ford had a productive conversation about the economic relationship between the United States and Canada.
Secretary Lutnick agreed to officially meet
President Donald Trump announced Tuesday his plan to double tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum despite negative market reactions to the trade war.
“have instructed my Secretary of Commerce to add an ADDITIONAL 25% Tariff, to 50%, on all STEEL and ALUMINUM COMING INTO THE UNITED STATES FROM CANADA, ONE OF THE HIGHEST TARIFFING NATIONS ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. This will go into effect TOMORROW MORNING, March 12th,” Trump posted on Truth Social.
Markets reacted negatively to Trump’s latest tariffs, with the Dow Jones dropping by nearly 600 points as Wall Street continues to worry about the possibility of a recession. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq both lowered slightly Tuesday
Another WaPo Columnist Bites the Dust

Ruth Marcus is leaving the Washington Post.
What a loss. What a loss.
Marcus is one of the many liberal columnists at the Post who are upset at Jeff Bezos' decision to move the paper's Opinion Page in a more liberty-friendly direction, promoting free market ideas and personal liberty rather than the soft-socialism usually found on the pages of the Post.
In one way I applaud Marcus for taking a stand for principle; in another, I am inclined to roll my eyes. As a 66-year-old she is a spring chicken by Washington standards, hardly eligible by age to become a junior Senator.
A reporter for conspiracy theorist Alex Jones' InfoWars was brutally murdered outside his south Austin apartment late on Sunday night.
Jamie White was found badly wounded outside his home on Douglas Street around midnight in a slaying that Jones blamed on Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza.

White was rushed to a nearby hospital where he later died from his injuries.
Police have called the incident a homicide but have not identified any suspects. The slaying had been investigated as a shooting/stabbing but authorities have not released additional information.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced Monday that the security clearances of 51 intelligence officers who signed a letter portraying Hunter Biden’s laptop as ‘Russian disinformation’ have been officially revoked.
Gabbard, one of several strong, intelligent women with a significant role in President Trump's cabinet, delivered the bad news to some high-profile members of the intelligence community.
Names such as former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, former CIA Directors Mike Hayden, John Brennan, and Leon Panetta, and former National Security Advisor John Bolton signed on to the letter. And by doing so, they eventually signed onto their own security clearance revocation.

Harvard Freezes

The Trump administration’s pulling of $400 million in grants and contracts has reverberated through the world of higher education. Harvard has announced a hiring freeze, although they don’t quite call it that. The language is turgid, but the point comes through:
Universities throughout the nation face substantial financial uncertainties driven by rapidly shifting federal policies.
Yes, we now have an administration that is opposed to anti-Semitism.
Effective immediately, Harvard will implement a temporary pause on staff and faculty hiring across the University. In the coming days, we will work closely with the leadership of Harvard’s Schools and administrative units to help determine how to implement this guidance in extraordinary cases

Former Obama advisor Van Jones declared that the Democratic Party was "screwed" and trapped between two deeply unpopular factions.
The CNN commentator couldn’t help but laugh at the "nightmare" Democrats were in when asked about the ongoing friction between party members.
"Look, man, we’re screwed," Jones said on "CNN Newsroom" Sunday. "I mean, Democrats don’t know what to do. This is a nightmare. You know, somebody like Donald Trump, we thought we’d at least have Hakeem Jeffries in the Speaker’s chair to hold him back if we didn‘t have Kamala in there to do the right thing."
President Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky apologized to Trump in a letter after a explosive public argument during an Oval Office meeting.
“Zelensky sent a letter to the president. He apologized for that whole incident that happened in the Oval Office,” Witkoff said Monday on Fox News. “I think that it was an important step and there’s been a lot of discussion between our teams and the Ukrainians and the Europeans who are relevant to this discussion as well.”
U.S. and Ukrainian officials are set to meet in Saudi Arabia this week to pick back up on peace negotiations to end the war with Russia.

Warren, Mich. — Bernie Sanders is standing alone on the back of a pickup truck shouting into a bullhorn.
He’s facing several hundred ecstatic voters huddled outside a suburban Detroit high school — the group that did not fit inside the high school’s gym or two overflow rooms. The crowd screams in delight when he tells them that a combined total of 9,000 people had shown up for the rally.
“What all of this tells me, is not just in Michigan or in Vermont, the people of this country will not allow us to move toward oligarchy. They will not allow Trump to take us into authoritarianism,” Sanders yelled.
Approximately 60 drones were launched from Ukraine overnight to attack the Russian capital city of Moscow. This is the largest escalation of drone/missile attacks into Russia so far. The attack comes, predictably, as Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Nat Sec Advisor Mike Waltz and President Trump envoy Steve Witkoff arrive in Saudi Arabia for preliminary face-to-face talks with Ukraine officials. [Snip] 60+ drones launched against Russia’s largest city is intended to draw a major retaliation from Russian President Vladimir Putin, that is what the UK/EU and NATO apparatus want. The Zelenskyy people want Russia to attack Kiev so they can enlarge the scale and scope of U.S. involvement.
Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency, known as DOGE, has been working to eliminate what it considers redundant positions and cut costs. With roughly 200,000 federal workers now out of jobs, many are scrambling to find new employment. But for those who worked for agencies like the National Park Service, U.S. Forest Service, or Fish and Wildlife Service, job opportunities outside of government are slim. Coloradan Tina Jackson's one-year probationary period as a federal employee was set to end on March 10. But three weeks ago, she was let go from the Fish and Wildlife Service team she headed. After

Some of the guests slated to speak to the former first lady and Robinson, the executive director of the National Association of Basketball Coaches, include the actors Issa Rae and Keke Palmer and psychologist Dr. Orna Guralnik.

Alejandro Mayorkas, the nation’s top border official from 2021 to 2025, is denying blame for President Donald Trump’s smashing victory in 2024, which has scattered and impoverished the Democratic Party’s many interest groups.
Instead, Mayorkas is blaming Texas GOP Gov. Greg Abbott and the upstart new media that he could not control as he gambled the party’s future by importing more than 10 million migrants for use by businesses and progressives.
“I am very proud of what we did do,” Mayorkas told a friendly Harvard interviewer on March 5.
I would have liked to have wrestled with the question of communication
It’s called a “squash match.” And it’s one of the secret ingredients that makes the con so effective.
[Spoiler Alert] Pro wrestling isn’t real. (Snip) This takes us to the Democratic Party’s hysterical response to Donald Trump’s speech to the nation. While the president of the United States was explaining his agenda — recognizing courageous cancer survivors and applauding sick children — the Democrats were booing, waving signs, and disrupting the proceedings.
Never mind that Donald Trump won the popular vote.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) admitted to Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk that the Democrats have taken wildly unpopular positions on certain issues — such as men competing in women’s sports — but will continue maintaining such losing stances as a matter of “principle.”
“I don’t mind losing. Sometimes you lose on principle,” the California governor told Kirk during Thursday’s episode of the This Is Gavin Newsom podcast.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Starlette Thomas remembers coming down almost daily to the intersection of 16th and H streets, to protest police brutality and systemic racial iniquities during the summer of 2020. On Monday, the 45-year old Bowie, Maryland resident returned to the site of those protests to mourn the end of Black Lives Matter Plaza. “I needed to be here today. I can’t just let this go away,” Thomas said, as jackhammers began tearing into the giant yellow letters in the street. Thomas discretely secured a chunk of pavement and said holding it made her feel conflicted.

Some of the country's elite law firms are discovering that their activities as part of the "resistance" during Trump 1.0 and the harassment of Trump and his allies during the interregnum were not all fun and games.
