It’s unbelievable what’s happening to Oklahoma.

This weekend at Choctaw Casino in Durant. Nothing but indians.

Staff reports indicate most of them own the liquor stores, gas stations, and vape shops in the area. Now they’re in the casino gambling American dollars away.

This is the new reality in Oklahoma.

@StealthQE4 Yeah, but we're also making our water infrastructure a military target. So, we got that going on.

BREAKING: A water pumping station in Mahshahr, southwestern Iran, was struck by US airstrikes, killing one and injuring four, per the Deputy Governor of Khuzestan.

The US has now struck Iran's oil, gas, petrochemical, and water infrastructure in tonight's attacks.

🚨TAKE A LOOK🚨

The Trump administration has briefly extended work permits for those holding Temporary Protected Status from Haiti and six other countries, just hours before the permits were set to expire.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services announced that work permits for Haitians with TPS will now expire on July 24.

Permits for recipients from Ethiopia, Syria, Somalia, Yemen, South Sudan, and Myanmar will expire in one week.

A 19-year-old hacker used VPNs, tunneling tools, and rotated IPs across 3 countries. The FBI still caught him. Here's the Windows feature that made it possible and why it should concern everyone.

Peter Stokes, an alleged member of Scattered Spider (the group behind $100M+ in ransomware extortion), was arrested at Helsinki Airport this April. Court documents revealed a key piece of evidence: Microsoft's GDID.

What is a GDID?
GDID = Global Device Identifier. It's a unique code baked into every Windows installation. Microsoft uses it for telemetry, crash reports, feature usage, and license verification (it's why swapping your CPU can break your Windows activation).

What Microsoft gave the FBI:
→ Web activity with timestamps
→ Gaming history
→ IP addresses used over time
→ Tool usage (including Ngrok, a tunneling app)
→ Azure account activity

All tied to one persistent device fingerprint. Even though the VPN masked his IP, it didn't affect the GDID.

How they connected the dots:
Every time Stokes logged in to Snapchat, Apple, or Facebook from a new IP address, the GDID was there too. Investigators matched timestamps across platforms and countries: Tallinn, New York, Thailand, Germany. Different IPs. Same machine. Same person.

Microsoft had already identified him in October 2024 and filed a criminal referral. He was still 17. So they waited till He turned 18. Then they moved.

Yes, Stokes is accused of serious crimes. But the GDID data exists on every Windows machine, including yours. The infrastructure that handed his entire digital life to the FBI is the same infrastructure running on your laptop right now.

The unanswered questions:
- There's no public policy on when Microsoft shares GDID data

- No known opt-out mechanism

- No transparency report specifically covering GDID disclosures

- What other criminal referrals has Microsoft quietly filed?

One reason young people are buying into socialism is because when they look to the Republican Party they do not see solutions, they see people telling them that struggling is just part of being an American all while jobs get taken by foreigners the GOP proudly run as candidates.

@DripChud The cynic in me says it's actually a way to maintain Boomer support for the war with Iran. Sell them on killing everyone younger than them. But that's just crazy.

Karoline Leavitt, who has a three-decade age gap with her wealthy husband, says Gen Z is “lazy” and born with “silver spoons in their mouths," and that if they misbehave, they should be sent to “Iran” and “Cuba.”

Gen Z faces some of the most disparate wealth inequality in US history, with relative purchasing power, especially of homes, greatly diminished.
