Ms. Good was ordered to turn her car around and leave the scene. The videos very clearly show her *obeying that order* as the masked man blew her brains out. Obey orders or not, it doesn't much matter when murderous gestapo are out for blood anyway. He shot her in the head from the driver side window as he stood off to the side of her vehicle under *no threat or danger to himself.* The vehicle only became a safety threat after he executed her behind the wheel (against offically stated DHS safety protocol) and then the car ran out of control, which is precisely the reason why they are instructed to not shoot people driving vehicles. Its clear that you dont understand what our flag stands for because you are here giving a full throated. endorsement of tyranny.

In what way? It's DHS, they are separate from the DoD.

Hey thanks for commenting. I think you’re totally wrong here and missing the point, as do most sane people in the world, but I do appreciate you coming forward. You’re creating your own reality. If this was “most certainly an attempt to run over the officer” as you are saying, she would have turned towards him, not away from him as the video clearly shows. Also, the guy walked in front of the car, which goes against law enforcement training in the first place. In a situation this chaotic, that is not only stupid, but it is wholly unsafe for everyone involved.  The guy had time to get out of the way, as you can see from the fact that he did just that. He even managed to brandish a firearm and shoot her in the head not once, but three times. His last shot he even fired when he was completely out of the way. The vehicle actually stops turning once he executes her. This is an American citizen. Do you know what the penalty for reckless endangerment with a vehicle is, if you can even call this that? It’s not murder on the spot, especially when all he had to do was get out of the way, like he did. You are saying these sympathizers are putting people in danger. What would have happened if he murdered her and the car drove into a family on the sidewalk, or a stray bullet of the three he fired like it was a cowboy western killed a man? DHS are untrained, sloppy, bullies who have no regard for peaceful protest or civil disobedience. I don’t know if you know this, but a big part of being American is disobedience. This country was founded on disobedience. Lawful instructions. You people are sick.

You’re still talking about Obama…. Jesus fucking Christ man, your current president probably fucked teenage girls and you’re going on about Obama. DHS officers murdered an American citizen today, and you’re talking about Obama. How old are you? The only good thing to have come about mango’s presidency so far is bringing back retard, so I can call you retarded without beating around the bush. If mango follows through, great! I’ll admit that I was wrong. It doesn’t change the mountain of bullshit to have come out of his presidency. I appreciate you commenting though in a semi-public forum and not running to hide in the r/conservetive enclave echo chamber.

Any other year, that DHS statement would be a scandal, now lying is just the norm.

This. The only point you missed is that they make energy and they help do surveillance. They are going to contribute to national security when DHS realizes how useful they can be and how they can be a part of a larger ecosystem

They just had a contract with DHS. Look it up propaganda boy.

Your summary is an excellent "snapshot," but it **understates the recent backlog growth ($15M vs $12.5M)** and misses the **pivotal Jan 2026 DHS/Anduril contract**, which is currently the most significant fundamental driver for the stock.

The Department of Homeland Security fast-tracked a contract worth almost $1 billion to a company led by a donor to a pro-Trump nonprofit group where one of the officials overseeing the deal previously worked, according to records reviewed by The Washington Post. That donor, William Walters, leads another company that received a separate $140 million contract from DHS to purchase six Boeing 737 planes to use for deportations, The Post reported last week. The larger contract involves a DHS program called Project Homecoming that offers cash bonuses, free flights and a “concierge service” at airports for departing migrants. The program arose from an executive order on the first day of President Donald Trump’s second term directing DHS to develop policies to encourage immigrants to leave the country voluntarily, a process the administration calls “self-deportation.” The agency said nonpartisan professionals control its contracting decisions. But in the case of the Project Homecoming contract, political appointees coordinated the process, emails obtained by The Post show. That contract went to an Arlington-based company called Salus Worldwide Solutions, according to an official with direct knowledge of the matter. The company was incorporated in June 2023. Its website describes experience coordinating international travel, disaster aid and secure facilities. Salus had never received a federal contract before, according to government spending records. It served as a subcontractor on two State Department contracts, according to a lawsuit challenging the Project Homecoming contract. Walters, the company’s CEO, was a donor to the America First Policy Institute, according to government documentation reviewed by The Post. AFPI does not publicly disclose its donors. The nonprofit recognized Walters as one of three recipients of a “Patriot Award” at its annual gala in November 2024. Walters also gave $10,000 in October 2024 to American Resolve, a super PAC run by allies of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi L. Noem that supported Trump in the presidential election, according to federal campaign finance data. Representatives for the PAC did not respond to an inquiry from The Post. The other company led by Walters, Daedalus Aviation, was incorporated in February 2024. The process leading to that contract was not immediately clear. Federal law prohibits government contractors from contributing to campaigns or political committees. But Walters and his company were not contractors at the time, and the ban does not extend to nonprofit groups. Walters declined to comment through a lawyer, citing ongoing litigation. The Project Homecoming contract is being challenged by a company that alleges it didn’t get a fair chance to compete. In an unsigned statement sent from DHS’s general press mailbox in response to questions from The Post, the agency said that its contracts “are subject to applicable federal procurement laws and oversight, which ensure transparency, competition, and the prudent use of taxpayer funds.” The agency declined to answer specific questions because of the lawsuit challenging the contract. The DHS general counsel’s office said protests of large contracts are common. The office said it reviewed Salus’s interactions with the agency and communications about the Project Homecoming contract and found no legal violations. “There is zero indication that there was any wrongdoing on anyone’s part,” the statement said. Federal contracts are highly regulated to prevent political appointees from using taxpayer money to reward supporters. Ordinarily, federal business opportunities go through a public process of soliciting bids, and the companies that compete for them are usually specialized and experienced. DHS’s statement said “all aspects” of its contracting decisions are “controlled” by career professionals in its procurement office. But according to the lawsuit from the competing company that is challenging the award, as well as an official familiar with the process, DHS officials shared nonpublic information with Salus to help prepare its bid, prompting an investigation by agency lawyers. The company referenced evidence that is under a court-ordered seal. The investigation, which the lawsuit said began in April, found that DHS employees exchanged at least 40 emails with Salus between February and April to discuss the contract, including budget and program specifications. The investigation determined that Salus had an unfair advantage in helping to design the contract it bid on, the competing company said in a Dec. 2 court filing that cited evidence under seal. In an email to The Post, a lawyer for Salus denied that the company received “inside” information. After the investigation, DHS officials decided to change course and conduct an abbreviated competition, with a preselected pool of applicants and a three-day turnaround, according to the court filing and internal communications obtained by The Post. “We are NOT pursuing the ‘intent to sole source’ this contracting activity,” senior DHS official Karen Evans said in a May 8 email to other officials, using a technical term for a noncompetitive process. Evans did not respond to phone calls from The Post. The records show that a DHS official who previously worked at the America First Policy Institute — Rob Law, serving as undersecretary for policy — helped coordinate the competition. An email obtained by The Post from DHS Chief Procurement Officer Paul Courtney states: “Rob Law is leading this effort for the front office,” using a term for the agency’s political leadership. Courtney did not respond to phone calls. In its statement, DHS denied Law’s involvement. “DHS follows strict ethics and recusal protocols, and there was no role for Mr. Law in this procurement action,” the agency said. The process around the Project Homecoming contract adds to a series of spending decisions by Noem and her top adviser, former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, that congressional Democrats have questioned. The agency awarded a $77 million advertising contract to a company that previously worked with Lewandowski, and $143 million to a Delaware corporation that in turn hired a company run by the husband of Noem’s spokeswoman, Tricia McLaughlin, according to ProPublica. A DHS spokesperson said the agency didn’t choose the subcontractor. Additionally, DHS spent $200 million on two Gulfstream private jets for Noem’s use; the Coast Guard said the jets are not “a perk or luxury — it’s a national security asset.” It is unclear whether Noem approved the fast-track process for Project Homecoming. Officials prepared a memo to notify her about the process, according to communications reviewed by The Post, but the records do not include a response. DHS officials met with a small number of preselected vendors, according to the lawsuit. One other company heard about the opportunity and asked to participate, the lawsuit alleges. Six preselected companies received documentation needed to prepare their proposals on a Friday in mid-May, with a deadline of 10 a.m. the following Monday. The lawsuit was filed in August by CSI Aviation, which had previously worked for DHS operating deportation flights. The suit says CSI contacted DHS asking to participate in the bidding process but never received a response. After Salus was selected, CSI sued, alleging that the agency allowed only “hand-picked” vendors to compete on an “impossibly short” deadline. The government and Salus filed responses under seal on Dec. 9.

Three things happen if we ever get a Democrat back in power: 1. Every single "norm" that has been trampled becomes a law. 2. The DHS gets either heavily rolled back, or entirely dissolved. 3. The CFPB gets reinstated, with more power than it had before. That means no more payday loans first and foremost, but will absolutely come for the betting markets next.

President Donald Trump called a journalist "stupid" for attempting to fact-check his claim that the Biden administration didn’t vet Afghan nationals who came to the United States, related to the shooting of two National Guard members in Washington. After Trump claimed that Afghans fleeing the Taliban were never vetted under a Biden-era program, CBS News White House correspondent Nancy Cordes offered additional reporting and asked a follow-up question. "Your [Department of Justice Inspector General] just reported this year that there was thorough vetting by DHS and by the FBI of these Afghans who were brought into the U.S.," Cordes said, asking why Trump blamed the Biden administration. "Because they let them in," Trump said Thursday. “Are you stupid? Are you a stupid person?” "They came in on a plane along with thousands of other people that shouldn't be here, and you're just asking questions because you're a stupid person," Trump said. Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the suspect who has been charged for shooting two West Virginia National Guard members in Washington, D.C., worked with the CIA in Afghanistan and entered the U.S. under Operation Allies Welcome. One of the victims, Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, died Thursday following the shooting. Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe remains in critical condition, U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro said Friday. Charges against Lakanwal were upgraded to first-degree murder on Friday.

An ad in the new york times? Thats trumps action that you think equates to the trail of tears? How about ICE and DHS? ICE/DHS: As of late 2025, approximately 66,000 people are in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody, with a large percentage of them not having criminal convictions. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) also reports that over 527,000 deportations have occurred, and more than 1.6 million people have self-deported since early 2025. These figures represent a significant increase in enforcement activities Trail of tears: Approximately 100,000 Native Americans from the Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, and Seminole tribes were affected by forced removals, with thousands dying during the journeys known collectively as the "Trail of Tears". For the Cherokee Nation alone, an estimated 16,000 people were forced to march, and roughly 4,000 died from disease, starvation, and exhaustion, as explained by the Cherokee Nation and PBS

Look at Big Bear AI (BBAI). It’s lining itself up to win legit govt defense AI contracts next year. 1) It’s biometric facial recognition AI is already in 15 US int’l airports and improving passenger processing times for TSA by 60%. 2) The CEO is a former DHS secretary during the first Trump Regime and a former Chief of Customs and Border Patrol. So him and other upper level employees have connections to the govt. 3) 10B of new Defense Bill is going to be allocated for upgrading border security defense (likely using AI for big chunk of it). 4) They just acquired a smaller AI company (Ask Sage) which expands their AI capabilities and brings in recurring revenue until these contracts come in. 5) The CEO of the company they’re acquiring (Ask Sage) is a former Chief software officer for the US Air Force and Space Force. It’s another back door to win gov’t contracts. They’re doing a lot to land some legit contracts.

Palantir is bordering on being irreplaceable. Current government initiatives lean toward centralization, rapid deployment, and data exploitation- Palantir’s exact strength. Gotham is already embedded in DHS, ICE, HHS, and DoD. Rip it out, and the system stalls (i.e. vendor lock-in). Combining these agencies will give Palantir even greater leverage, so keep that in mind.

Ok_Lie_3148

No idea but I'm long on it. The numbers may not make sense but the sorts of relationships they have are what I'm predominantly looking at. They are deeply entrenched with the intelligence community across multiple countries, DOD, DHS, etc. They are playing a role in Israel's activities in Gaza. One of their most pivotal public partnerships imo is with RELX(Lexisnexis). I use lexis so I know exactly what sort of information this company has access to. I've taken some profits and the percentage I have leftover I'm cool with losing just to see what happens.

Honest question, why would the Hatch Act apply? I get why government agencies can’t (e.g. DHS / Noem doing that shit at airports) but isn’t the White House allowed? Or is the White House as a political entity separate from the current President so it’s supposed to be non-partisan?

I’ll give you the list Intellectual property and cyber theft: Massive cyber intrusions for commercial gain: DOJ indictments against PLA Unit 61398 actors (2014), APT10/“Cloudhopper” (2018), APT41 (2020), and additional China-based contractors for stealing IP and confidential business data from scores of U.S. firms and MSPs. Equifax breach: DOJ charged four PLA members in 2020 for the 2017 hack stealing data on ~147 million Americans. Trade secret theft prosecutions: Conviction of Sinovel Wind Group for stealing AMSC turbine software (2018). Systemic concerns summarized by USTR: 2018 Section 301 report and 2024 four-year review detail cyber-theft, state-backed IP acquisition, and market-access pressures. China is well known to completely disregard IP laws as well. Forced technology transfer and market access pressure: USTR found longstanding practices of conditioning market access/approvals on tech transfer and other JV/administrative pressures; the 2024 review says PRC issued some legal changes but core concerns persist. Dumping, subsidies, and trade remedy cases: Solar products: AD/CVD orders since 2012 on Chinese crystalline silicon solar cells/modules; later findings of circumvention via Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam (2022 prelim; 2023/2024 developments). Tires: AD/CVD on passenger vehicle & light-truck tires from China (2015). Aluminum extrusions: Commerce’s 2024 affirmative determinations on multiple countries (including China) for dumping/subsidies (some later negated by ITC injury vote). Other steel/fasteners/staples, etc.: Recurring AD/CVD findings against a range of China-origin industrial goods (example: collated steel staples final in 2020). WTO adjudicated restrictions and export measures: Rare earths, tungsten, molybdenum export restraints: WTO panel/Appellate Body rulings against China’s export duties/quotas (2014–2015). Sanctions/export-control evasion: ZTE: 2017 guilty plea and record penalties (~$1.19 billion) for illegal shipments to Iran/North Korea and obstructing U.S. investigations. Huawei: 2019–2020 U.S. indictments alleging sanctions evasion (Iran), bank/wire fraud, and trade-secret theft (T-Mobile “Tappy”). Case continues. Counterfeits and piracy tied to China based markets/platforms: USTR’s Notorious Markets lists (2023, 2024) continue to highlight China-linked online/physical markets facilitating large-scale counterfeits/piracy. DHS and CBP outline enforcement campaigns against counterfeit flows that heavily involve PRC/HK shipments. Currency practices: Aug 2019 Treasury designated China a “currency manipulator”; the designation was removed Jan 2020 as part of the Phase-One context. (U.S. reports continue to criticize transparency.) Transshipment & tariff circumvention: Solar: Commerce found circumvention where China-origin components finished in Southeast Asia re-enter the U.S. market; temporary tariff waiver ended in 2024 with new AD/CVD findings on those countries. And that’s just a few easily cited examples

Their partner Sharon AI - also has relations with NVIDIA - **CYCU** - The co-founder is one of the pioneers for web domain from the 70s. DHS, DOD, NACCHO contracts. Upcoming project with IQSTEL for telecomm cybersecurity project. Both good bets. Low shares outstanding.

The vast vast majority of that discretionary spending is critical though. That includes but is not limited to: * NOAA weather forecasting that business/people use (Airlines, farmers etc) * Infrastructure funding (Highway, rail, canals) * FDA inspections * DOJ * DHS and its many things such as TSA, CBP etc * Treasury Department * BLM * National Parks * FAA * NTSB * SEC Thats just some. Most of them are very widely popular with the public and people are supportive of their missions and a lot of the work these various agencies do. If you want to reduce deficit the easiest way to do it with least pain is #1 all medicare to negioate on all drug prices. Would lower costs overnight. Next immigration reform such as removing the dumb cap on Green card issuance which would give permanent residency to hundreds of thousands of H1-B holders overnight and raise their wages. Also offer pathways to citizenship and have illegal imigrants come out of hiding and spend and earn.

All publicity is good publicity. DHS didn’t have to say “Tylenol” to describe acetaminophen / paracetamol. Just goes to show the brand recognition.

beautiful-world777

That’s what I’m thinking. Their products are in every home in America and many international markets. They hold diverse household name brands. The fact that DHS identified “Tylenol” as opposed to Acetaminophen goes to show the power of their brand.

BBAI IS NEXT NVDIA..first we clear $10 airport-related contracts and deployments for its artificial intelligence and biometrics technology. These projects primarily focus on passenger processing and security enhancements. The company is also in a position to potentially benefit from future, large-scale airport modernization efforts, though these contracts are speculative.  Airport contracts and deployments Nashville International Airport (BNA): BigBear.ai recently deployed its Enhanced Passenger Processing (EPP) system at BNA's International Arrivals Facility. The system uses the company's veriScan biometric technology to streamline the customs process for international travelers. Numerous other U.S. and Canadian airports: BigBear.ai's biometric and AI-powered identity solutions have been deployed at a range of airports and ports of entry, including: Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) Chicago International Airport (ORD) Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) Denver International Airport (DEN) John F.

This contract, which has a shared ceiling of $2.4 billion over ten years, is part of a team led by Concept Solutions and provides IT solutions and emerging technologies. Analogic partnership: BigBear.ai has partnered with aviation security systems innovator Analogic. The collaboration integrates BigBear.ai's computer vision screening with Analogic's Computed Tomography (CT) scanners to improve threat detection at airport security checkpoints.  Speculative contract with the TSA While not an active contract, a future $5.5 billion AI/biometric technology upgrade by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is often discussed by investors and is considered a potential catalyst for BigBear.ai.  This massive, multi-year contract is currently in the planning stage and has not been officially tendered or awarded.

> I believe the same person can have more than one H1B application pending as long as they are from different employers. "Thousands of applications" for the same person seem unlikely and even dumb - that would make it really easy for DHS/USCIS to weed out fraudulent applications. A few applications for the same person from a few fictitiously different employers, sure. Regardless what you think of it, that is what is happening. And now, you can't just discover the fraud that easily because in theory there is nothing illegal with an applican't applying for 1000 interviews, passing them all, and being applied for H1B by all of them. The specific fraud is in the fact as stated by the H-1B program website itself: >The intent of the H-1B provisions is to help employers who cannot otherwise obtain needed business skills and abilities from the U.S. workforce by authorizing the temporary employment of qualified individuals who are not otherwise authorized to work in the United States. The intent of H-1B is not to serve as some easy way to gain entry in the U.S, it's not a way to hire cheaper workers, it's a way for employers to gain access to super smart workers. Which once again brings me back to my point: Stop bitching about the changes, 100k is nothing for valuable employees, if you don't get a visa because of the 100k fee, you were abusing the system by getting hired as a wageslave instead of actually having any merit of being some specially gifted person.

>The employees are the one who are in on the fraud, they literally have companies create thousands of applications for them to get the visa. We are talking about two different things - two different types of fraud. I'm talking about what happens after the foreign workers are already here, after they've got the H1B visa. I believe the same person can have more than one H1B application pending as long as they are from different employers. "Thousands of applications" for the same person seem unlikely and even dumb - that would make it really easy for DHS to weed out fraudulent applications. A few applications for the same person from a few fictitiously different employers, sure. Either way, fraud will continue as long as the underclass treatment continues, and that includes being subject to a lottery instead of free market competition. In academia no one bothers with multiple applications because academic H1Bs are exempt from the lottery.

Only, you do have all those things. They're actively attempting to suppress any views that arent MAGA. And no, spreading covid misinformation and being factchecked by Facebook is not the same. Hyper nationalism: "america 1st, MAGA, dept of war etc..." autocracy: Trump alone being trusted to make all the decisions. Tarriffs, hiring/firing in depts, purity tests, demanding full loyalty of governmental workers. Hypermilitary: threatening an invasion of Canada, Mexico. Panama, Greenland. Dept of war again. Homeland security dept now has a higher yearly budget than the FBI, DEA, ATF, US Marshalls and the federal bureau of prisons COMBINED. DHS budget is higher than most countries' entire military budget lol

WollopDollop

Please understand that was a Homeland Security subcommittee - they're not there to say "let's just deschedule" - they're there to direct funding/task forces/etc. to DHS to address the current state of affairs. That said, multiple politicians brought up this exact issue and, coupled with the fact that 2 out of the 3 witnesses clearly distinguished the task of breaking up cartels vs. good state-licensed actors, it was a great hearing in that framework. I'm sure MM will take bits of whatever Paul Blart from Heritage and write up that we're heading towards total ban as a result, but there were a lot of positive takeaways from that hearing.

Red days are illegal, I reported you to DHS for making berroristic threats

Based on what I read, you got in when they had a different CEO, no money, and product that was marketed in a specialized industry that had no flexibility and a limited market potential. I am not sure i would have invested back then. I can understand the frustration by all of the investors at that time. Sounds like the prior management failed. I am seeing a new CEO, an advanced product, a special niche with not taking off back packs, a whole different industry, a large penetrating market with a brand new demand. The supply of this product is down and the competition is slowly growing with tough barrier of entry with all of the testing, TSA and DHS requirements. Sorry you had a loss but that does not meet the current company mission, targeted market and facts presented today. This is a penny stock with a lot of potential. Sorry for your loss. You have not persuaded me to NOT invest.

ObservationalHumor

So what's really improved since then though? I mean fundamentally we saw the bond market intervene and stop Trump from immediately destroying the US economy with his insane trade policies. Everything rallied on the hopes of some grand deal that hasn't really materialized. Yeah I mean I suppose it could be worse and there really could be 200% tariff on everything but 30% on everything isn't exactly great either. Hell maybe the Supreme Court will actually strike them down too right? Instead of just tabling everything, saying the Trump administration can do whatever it wants until the court decides to revisit it or just flat out ruling in its favor like it's done on almost every case in front of it. We've got what maybe 3 more months of Fed independence to look forward too as well too. Obviously the jobs picture isn't looking great either as all of this insanity has finally started to actual impact the real economy too. I guess the market is up 10% which is great unless you're a consume and dollar's purchasing power abroad has dropped by the exact same amount too. Don't get me wrong I made a boatload of money trading to the downside when Trump started stomping around about trade and picked up some shares on the hopes that if things got dire enough either the courts, congress or some cabal of financial interests would intervene to quash some of the nonsense we've seen coming out of the White House, but at the same time I can't really fault people anyone worried about what's happening, where the economy is going and the fact that objectively things have pretty much only worsened since April. This is a different kind of risk and there's a lot more on the line now then just hitting some slow patch because the Fed doesn't thread the needle on interest rates. This is the first time in like 15 years I've ever particularly felt the need to worry about holding dollar denominated assets. Yeah guns and ammo was always a big joke, but then again we've got masked men spiriting away people in the nations capital, which has been militarized at this point. These are not normal times. It isn't some speculators getting in over their heads or a bank being a bit too aggressive with leverage. Maybe it will all shake out just fine, but people should be worried. There's way too much sanewashing going on about everything that's going on. The head of DHS is trying to saying tylenol causes autism and its simply being framed as 'unorthodoxed'. We've got the BLS being politicized because bad news is no long acceptable. These are foundational institutions that we rely on to keep people safe and actually provide us with reliable information so we can make investment decisions. We've got an administration in power, with near unchallenged power effectively, that thinks the best way to improve our economy is rapidly devalue the dollar. Some of those crazy prepper and gold bug talking points that would have been ridiculous 3 years ago actually have some real legs now and that more than anything should have people concerned.

cyborg_elephant

Well not really. Theyre probably masked because of how they get targeted and doxxed constantly. Whether you agree with the deportations or not im sure you can agree that doxxing somebody you know will be targeted with violence is pretty scummy stuff. They are federal agents because thats literally what ICE is...a federal agency under the DHS. So its not really shady that theyre federal agents or that they are protecting their identity. Its literally just who they are and what their job is and trying to stay safe while doing it. As far as rounding people up...again thats sort of the nature of what ICE is. You might be able to argue that theyre casting too broad of a net or that the immigrants are owed more of a chance in court, but as far as the statement you've made it sounds ignorant and more like youre echoing the virtue signalling screeches of radicals than actually understanding the situation.

spikey_wombat

As long as the custom officials collect it, then it will work. That's the mechanism. Your belief is that the customs officials will not follow the directive of the DHS secretary. This administration doesn't care what Congress or the Courts say. Republicans openly flirted with defunding the Court's capacity to enforce subpoenas. There aren't really many options to actually force this lawless administration to follow the Constitution.

cinJESUS

YouTube AD from DHS: you can self deport using an app and get compensated; if you don’t, you will get fined, detained, and forcefully removed LMAO🤌

I think 🥭is angling for SpaceX stake with these comments about defense stocks. In his mind, any company that receives money from the U.S. government, even in the form of contracts (DoD, NASA, DHS, etc) is fair play, but I truly think the "defense" play is to get a piece of SpaceX and stick it to Musk.

About possible contract around CWMS 3.0 I tried read last earnings where they talk about it a lot plus discussed with ChatGPT 5 LLM to find out possible scenarios: Scenario 1 – Bull Case: Single-Award to WidePoint • Assumption: DHS awards the entire CWMS 3.0 (~$3B+) to WidePoint as the sole prime contractor (similar to CWMS 2.0). • Impact: • Revenues could scale 3–5x current levels (WidePoint currently <$100M annual revenue). • Gross margins might improve due to scale, even if contract pricing is competitive. • Stock could rise 2x–5x as investors re-rate the company as a federal IT growth story. • Catalyst: Market sees WidePoint as a proven, trusted integrator with FedRAMP ITMS. ⸻ Scenario 2 – Base/Neutral Case: Multi-Award • Assumption: DHS splits CWMS 3.0 across multiple vendors (like Navy Spiral 4). WidePoint keeps a portion. • Impact: • Revenues grow, but only proportionally to the share (say 15–30%). • WidePoint remains relevant, but without transformational upside. • Stock could see moderate upside (+30–80%), reflecting improved visibility but no hyper-growth. • Catalyst: Investors see WidePoint as a niche but sustainable player in federal mobility. ⸻ Scenario 3 – Bear Case: No Award • Assumption: DHS moves away from WidePoint and awards to larger carriers (AT&T, Verizon, etc.) or another integrator. • Impact: • WidePoint loses its flagship DHS contract. • Revenues could decline materially (tens of millions per year at risk). • Stock could drop -50% or more, as the growth narrative evaporates. • Catalyst: Market reaction would be sharp, since CWMS is central to WidePoint’s story. Is it worth risk? Probably stop losses might be helpful

MirthandMystery

It was partly nationalized. Kleptocracy style like Russia. He's demanding (stealing) a private company give him a cut in profits but claims future profits will help the US public when a profit is turned. But those funds were previously allocated for investing and improving their efficiency, to help it adapt and stand on its own. And any future profits, if Intel ever earns any, will likely just fund Trumps pet projects. He's already misused and rerouted billions in funds allocated for other things that Congress previously approved. He's stealing taxpayer money to fund projects *he* likes and rewards agencies that support his own power, like ICE and DHS. Dangerous times and people still aren't understanding what's happening very fast.

Boy I hope you saw the latest update on this from DHS.

PLTR is going to partner with DHS to monitor and deport all immigrants (legal and illegal) as well as other undesirables like homeless, trans people, blue haired liberals, and gay bears. Thank you for your attention in this matter!

social-media campaign launched late last month touted immigration enforcement as an opportunity for father-son bonding and to “deport illegals with your absolute boys,” a slang term for close friends. The Department of Homeland Security has invoked world-war-era imagery and touted 1990s Superman actor Dean Cain in an all-out blitz to persuade Americans they should join ICE’s ranks. The federal government also offered hefty incentives: up to $50,000 in signing bonuses and up to $60,000 in student loan forgiveness. No undergraduate degree is required. DHS also lifted the age cap for law-enforcement roles, opening a deportation officer position specifically for people over 40, and tried to woo back retired law-enforcement officials with a “return to mission” campaign.   America has been invaded by criminals and predators,” the agency says on its recruiting website. “We need YOU to get them out.” ——— They are so separate they will be recuriting from the Wendy’s dumpster soon.

Oh I have RTAC as well for sure. Listen in reality the TL:dr explanation is "it's all a crapshoot". BUT I'm putting my eggs in the YORK basket over RTAC bc although RTAC is larger by 50mil I believe it seems focused in on crypto...which is great but man is it starting to get oversaturated imo. Yorkville also has Nunes on the board and they're focusing more on media and tech which to me is like a classic black dress...never goes out of style. CEO Kevin McGurn has a ton of media experience with big companies like T-Mobile and was going to be the CEO of Triller, the TikTok rival then all of a sudden that ended for no apparent reason...seems mutual from what I read. Then you have Mark Angelo who is the only one I don't like in the group...fraudster...but then again...fraudsters know how to pump...I know...bad thinking. Then there's Scott Glabe who is the one that interests me the most:  *Mr. Glabe previously led a 200-person team including members of the Office of Cyber, Infrastructure, Risk and Resilience-as Acting Under Secretary for Policy at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”) from July 2020 until January 2021. He also held multiple other positions at DHS from May 2019 to January 2021. Before DHS, he represented the White House as an Associate Counsel to President Donald J. Trump from February 2019 until May 2019 and worked for the U.S. House of Representatives in progressively senior legal and policy roles from April 2015 until February 2019. Earlier in his career, Mr. Glabe practiced in the Washington office of an international law firm from October 2013 to April 2015, clerked for a federal appellate judge from October 2012 to September 2013, and served as an intelligence officer in the U.S. Navy Reserve from September 2008 until January 2020 (including time in the inactive reserve). He is a graduate of Yale Law School and Dartmouth College. Mr. Glabe was also appointed to the President’s Intelligence Advisory Board in February 2025.* Again...like you said...a placeholder. Only problem is I'm with stupid ass Merrill who makes me call in to make these trades so I try to make larger purchases and I don't always get the best bid ask anymore because of it.

Interest payments, military spending, DHS spending are the three main drivers of the bill I think.

Jesus I used to talk to Alex Karp years ago. Do you all not know what Palantir does? Palantir creates the highest quality dashboards for C Suite executives that combine multiple sources of data- usually data that the stake holders don’t know exist- the Palantir developers know this data seamlessly For instance, what if the White House wants to know the address of every person of, let’s a say, Latin descent and map them near DHS offices, they take the mapping section of Palantir Foundry, they take government coordinates of DHS offices, they collect the top 500 last names of Latin American countries, they purchase commercial credit data, they collect work information, they combine everything into a map dashboard and draw cool lines between the DHS office, people’s homes and workplaces

No. https://fiscaldata.treasury.gov/static-data/published-reports/dts/DailyTreasuryStatement_20250728.pdf Treasury’s Daily Treasury Statement shows deposits under the line “DHS – Customs and Certain Excise Taxes” of $28.202 billion for the month-to-date, already beating June’s $27 billion record before the month even closed. This is is entirely separate from IRS administered income. Why do people fight this? We are collecting more tariffs now. This is just a fact.

idk why people think this one is political, it's been happening over a decade. > A document leaked to TechCrunch revealed that Palantir's clients as of 2013 included at least 12 groups in the U.S. government, including the CIA, the DHS, the NSA, the FBI, the CDC, the Marine Corps, the Air Force, the Special Operations Command, the United States Military Academy, the Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Organization and Allies, the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. > On June 18, 2010, Vice President Joe Biden and Office of Management and Budget Director Peter Orszag held a press conference at the White House announcing the success of fighting fraud in the stimulus by the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board (RATB). Biden credited the success to the software, Palantir, being deployed by the federal government.[30] He announced that the capability would be deployed at other government agencies, starting with Medicare and Medicaid.

Not correct, read the 5th and 14th amendment and the process on expedited removal. The Supreme Court does not require a full trial for every undocumented immigrant before deportation, this was exercised by Bill Clinton, Barack Obama and Joe Biden as well as Donald Trump and every previous president. While the Constitution's Due Process Clause applies to everyone in the U.S. regardless of immigration status, the level of due process required can vary. The Supreme Court has acknowledged that "expedited removal" procedures, which allow for certain deportations without a full court hearing, are permissible under certain circumstances, and have supported Donald Trump in exercising this action. Due Process Rights: The Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments of the Constitution guarantee due process to everyone within U.S. jurisdiction, including undocumented immigrants. This means they cannot be deprived of life, liberty, or property without fair legal proceedings, accept in the case of “expedited removal”, which has been exercised by all past presidents, Democrat or Republican, including the current president. Expedited Removal: This procedure allows for the rapid deportation of certain noncitizens who are undocumented or who have misrepresented their status. These individuals may be deported without a hearing before an immigration judge. While undocumented immigrants have due process rights, the Supreme Court has acknowledged that "expedited removal" procedures can be used in certain situations, allowing for deportations without a full trial-like hearing. Donald Trump is doing the same thing that all past presidents have done. The difference is he’s undoing the blatant delinquency of duty demonstrated by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

Axon being down a lot because of an article saying its a meme stock is kinda funny. Its about to get a ton of DHS money and its not even that overvalued compared to other stocks like PLTR

Reasonable_Roger

The tariff revenue isn't really tied to the BBB. The congressional leadership and white house promised sun and moon to the hardcore deficit hawks in the house and senate both. People like Ron Johnson, Chip Roy, and that pervy looking guy from Maryland. Who knows what they promised them.. increased tariff revenue, executive orders to cut spending, rescission packages to claw back already approved spending.. a ton of shit with specifics that nobody is really privy to. The BBB is not an appropriation package. It had some one-off money for DHS (Ice) and defense, set terms for Medicaid and SNAP, etc.. but it doesn't actually set spending levels. That is done through appropriation bills and omnibus spending bills. We haven't fully passed all appropriation bills since the 1990's. We just limp along from one omnibus bill to another continuing resolution (which continues spending same as it's been, maybe with like a 1% cut, or 1% increase or whatever). Those are what's being debated when we run into possible government shutdowns. They require 60 votes in the Senate to pass, so they have to be at least partially bipartisan. Tariff's don't really impact those either. Tariff revenue is just kind of bonus. No one knows how much it's going to be month to month and it's not really related at all to the BBB, budget reconciliation packages, appropriation bills, budget continuing resolutions, or omnibus spending bills.

Outrageous_Reach_695

While it was announced, it doesn't look like the External one was ever created. So tariffs would probably go to CBP, which is under DHS. I hear DHS has been seeing one of its other components go over-budget lately, though, so perhaps tariff revenue goes to balance that ...

You can see how unpopular Trump is from a variety of polls including those done by fan favorite FOX, and he is underwater on nearly everything other than *immigration* but his popularity on that is collapsing as people see how badly and inhumanely DHS is running. The other votes Trump got from Independents who are fleeing from him like sour milk. Democrats are sick of their own party. Trump is one of the least popular public figures in history.

Tbf I think this has been transparent for a while now. You think they put extreme loyalists in place in the FBI, DOJ, DHS, and DOD for funsies? That they purged all the JAGS and IGs amd are conducting "loyalty" tests on high ranking military officers for the hell of it? That Trump keeps talking about getting rid of the "homegrowns" by accident? That they're dramatically expanding the power of the executive and removing checks on its exercise of power just to hand it over in a few years? All the old rules are done, a hell of a lot of people just don't realize it yet

"Encounters on the southern border of those trying to enter the U.S. without authorization have gone up significantly under President Joe Biden. Government statistics show that in the initial processing of millions of encounters, 2.5 million people have been released into the U.S. and 2.8 million have been removed or expelled. Some Republicans, however, have misleadingly suggested the number released into the country since Biden took office is much higher." THE FIRST TWO PARAGRAPHS. read the second one carefully. misleadingly. "[Other](https://www.cornyn.senate.gov/news/video-cornyn-calls-out-biden-admins-border-flip-flop/) [Republicans](https://twitter.com/EliseStefanik/status/1759319737748643904) have said 85% of migrants crossing illegally are being released, a figure that reportedly, [according to the Border Patrol Union](https://twitter.com/BPUnion/status/1744481229691601212?s=20), was used by Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas in early January. The 85% figure is close to accurate for apprehensions by Border Patrol for one month — December — but statistics for other months or Biden’s time in office are much lower, as we’ll explain later." so one month outlier for Biden, not every month. other were "much lower" "The figures used by Haley, DeSantis and Cotton — 8 million or 10 million — are totals of all migrant encounters at the border plus gotaways, and, in Cotton’s case, encounters at the northern border, coastal borders and airports. Cotton’s press secretary, Patrick McCann, told us that those figures showed the senator was correct to say that number “crossed into the country.” But these claims ignore that DHS statistics show 2.8 million of the encounters at the southern border alone resulted in a removal or expulsion directly from CBP custody, and all of the rest of the migrants encountered are not simply released. Most of those removals – nearly 2.5 million — were immediate expulsions under Title 42." this was published in 2024 and they were already removed before Trump
