JHB's Journal"Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Body" Sorry I had to.... 😂
Found this little ditty on Twitter (not calling it that other name). Apologies to those who can't see it, but I can't find it in another format.

(Don't ask how I managed to do that. It involved "View page source" and scrolling down through a lot of page code until I saw something and thought "would that work?" I'm not sure I could repeat it)
So we should take that one example of a poorly-run channel as the end-all be-all?
It's a walkway under a road to provide beach access, not an "underground tunnel"
Yes, it would provide Giuliani a "secret route" simply by using the beach access rather than one of the main gates the media might be watching, but the tunnel itself is nothing mysterious or unusual.
Red circle is entrance/outlet on MAL side, yellow line is approximate path under the road.
MAL is on a barrier island. The water table there is much too high to maintain actual underground tunnels.
From October 2021: CIA admits to losing dozens of informants around the world
https://thehill.com/policy/national-security/575384-cia-admits-to-losing-dozens-of-informants-around-the-world-nyt/Leading counterintelligence officials issued a memo to all of the CIAs global stations saying that a concerning number of U.S. informants were being captured and executed.
The CIAs counterintelligence mission center investigated dozens of incidents in the last few years that involved killings, arrests or compromises of foreign informants. In an unusual move, the message sent via a top secret cable included the specific number of agents killed by other intelligence agencies, according to The New York Times.

The uptick in compromised informants highlights the more sophisticated ways in which foreign intelligence agencies are tracking the CIAs actions. These mechanisms include artificial intelligence, facial recognition tools and other hacking methods, per the Times.

No one at the end of the day is being held responsible when things go south with an agent, Douglas London, a former CIA operative who was unaware of the cable, said to the Times. Sometimes there are things beyond our control but there are also occasions of sloppiness and neglect and people in senior positions are never held responsible.
Who was in charge for "the last few years" from last year? Who's always been very chummy with our adversaries, and stuffed a truck's worth of secret documents in an unsecured residence? Hmmm?

Sorry, non-Twitter users, I don't know how to post the video so it will show here separately.
In Post $6 below, crickets give a quick rundown of what the retired teacher is saying.
Uvalde school district police chief sworn in as city council member a week after mass shooting
Source: CNN
(CNN)Pete Arredondo, the Uvalde school district police chief who was the incident commander during the Robb Elementary school shooting, was sworn in as a city council member on Tuesday.
"Out of respect for the families who buried their children today, and who are planning to bury their children in the next few days, no ceremony was held," Mayor Don McLaughlin said in a statement.
Nineteen children and two teachers were killed in the attack last Tuesday. The chief was identified last week by the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) as the person who decided not to breach the school classroom where the shooter had holed up and instead stand back and wait for reinforcements.
Though DPS Director Steven McCraw did not identify Arredondo by name, he said the chief made the "wrong decision" not to engage with the gunman sooner

No Toons post for the next week or so
Due to a loss in the family I'm going to be away from my desktop and won't have my usual routine, so those posts are on hiatus until I get back to the usual day-to-day.
