For those who LOVE CUPCAKE from the Disclosure Tonight Livestream, I want you to know... Cupcake's kidney failure has unfortunately lead to a serious complication, where she has lost coordination and balance. At 19 1/2 years old she's still with us, with an appetite and control of her faculties and not in pain, but can no longer stand or walk.

The road ahead is difficult as I called https://t.co/vP033uWKBJ to come and help cupcake pass to her next incarnation Monday Morning. It's a wonderful service in the Seattle area that comes to ones home to assist with end of life decisions, like the one in front of me now. It's much better than going to the vet.

I want to personally THANK each and everyone of you that has expressed your LOVE for CUPCAKE. Times like these are never easy. With that being said... Losing a member of my family is VERY difficult and beyond the pain of losing someone, the absence of their presence can be overwhelming. I'll be back, not sure when...

Much LOVE everyone - Thomas & Cupcake

@UAPWatchers @ChrisUKSharp News from senators supporting it is scarce. Same as last year. At least we have PURSUE

@richgel999 Compared to the retail / software publisher avenues of the past it’s not perfect, just a helluva lot better.

@TheUfoJoe @RepEricBurlison PURSUE / White House / Miller doesn't need the House, Senate or UAPDA. What do we really loose?

[Chrissy Newton @chrissynewton]

Could the fight for government disclosure be shut down by the midterms?

Rep. Eric Burlison warns that the Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets and ongoing UAP investigations could come to a “complete halt” if control of Congress shifts.

When power changes hands, priorities flip and critical efforts toward civilian oversight risk being completely sidelined.

Can the push for truth ever truly stay above politics?

🚨GERMAN GOVERNMENT ADMITS IT HAS NO DEDICATED UAP REPORTING SYSTEM AND NO PLANS TO CREATE ONE

The German government has responded to a parliamentary inquiry concerning UFOs and UAP, confirming that it has no dedicated reporting system, no standardized definitions, and no interdepartmental working group for investigating unidentified aerial phenomena.

The inquiry, submitted by members of the AfD parliamentary group, asked how Germany monitors unidentified objects, if it keeps records of UAP encounters, and how it coordinates with international partners.

According to the government's response, it has no information about UAP sightings over the past 10 years and no dedicated system for collecting reports.

Germany does operate airspace surveillance systems, combining data from military and civilian sensors, and has access to information from European and international partners.

So Germany has the technology to monitor its airspace, but no dedicated framework for documenting and investigating unidentified objects.

The government also confirmed that it regularly exchanges security related information with its international partners, but refused to discuss the details of those exchanges.

Despite the growing international attention surrounding UAP, Germany says it has no plans to revise its existing procedures.

I find that strange, especially when the United States has established AARO, France operates GEIPAN, and other countries have official systems for investigating UAP.

I'm not suggesting that Germany has secretly recovered alien craft or hiding evidence of E.T. activity, but surely unidentified objects entering national airspace should be documented and investigated, regardless of what they turn out to be?

If Germany doesn't have a dedicated reporting system or national statistics, how can it work out if unusual incidents are occurring repeatedly, or whether they are an aviation or national security issue?

Where Are the UAP Task Force Records?

Jay Stratton (@jaystratton), former Director of the Pentagon's Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force (UAPTF), led the very organization whose records remain the subject of serious transparency questions.

Stratton, in his recently released book "Out of the Shadows," does discuss some of the data that the UAPTF had collected over the years - but does not go into any substantial detail.

The Disclosure Foundation calls for a comprehensive accounting of UAPTF records and the release of all material that can lawfully be declassified, including the imagery described in the quote from Policy Brief No. 5: Concrete Next Steps for UAP Disclosure.

Security called me at 6:12 AM today.

"Patch every PHP server immediately."

I asked what happened.

"Two critical vulnerabilities. Remote code execution. No authentication required."

Cool.

How many PHP servers do we have?

According to inventory: 12

According to reality:

Nobody knows.

We found one running WordPress.

Three running old internal tools.

One under someone's desk.

Two inside vendor appliances.

A forgotten employee directory from 2016.

And a server named:

PHP-OLD-DO-NOT-TOUCH

Naturally, that one runs payroll exports.

Then we found a PHP 5.6 box.

I asked who owned it.

The documentation said:

BRIAN.

Brian left in 2019.

We called Brian.

He said:

"Oh wow, that's still running?"

Excellent.

By 8 AM, leadership joined the incident call.

CEO:

"Can hackers actually get in?"

Security:

"Potentially yes."

CEO:

"Without a password?"

Security:

"Yes."

CEO:

"Then why do WE need passwords?"

Not the lesson.

Finance asked if we could wait until the weekend to patch because downtime affects revenue.

Security explained that the alternative was letting strangers execute code on our servers.

Finance asked for a cost comparison.

At 9:17, someone suggested temporarily taking the vulnerable websites offline.

Marketing refused.

"Our campaign is live."

So for the next hour, the company officially decided maintaining a landing page for 20% off webinar registration was more important than preventing remote server takeover.

We finally patched everything we could find.

Then our scanner discovered another PHP server.

Hostname:

TEMP-PHP-2014

Uptime:

4,512 days.

Nobody knows what it does.

Nobody owns it.

Nobody can shut it down.

But every time we block network access, the warehouse stops printing shipping labels.

Security has classified it as critical infrastructure.

It is running PHP 5.4.

The vulnerability has existed longer than half our employees.

The emergency patch took four hours.

Finding out what PHP actually runs took eleven.

The internet isn't held together with code.

It's held together with servers everyone is afraid to turn off.

Hey @grok, I got these on my foot. What are they, and what's the fastest way to get rid of them? 😭
