DEPORT

Donald Trump has just terminated Joe Biden’s security clearance.

This is the first time a sitting President has terminated the security clearance of a former president.

Welcome to the New Republic.

The IRGC Naval Forces have released footage of their new drone-carrier ship, the IRGC Shahid Mahdavi. The ship has been seen on commercial satellite imagery and rather grainy footage before, but this is the first such footage of the deck in use by drones and helicopters. Also, what appears to be the Iranian “stealth drone,” the Qaher-313, which is actually a past manned “stealth” fighter design that never reached full production, can be seen on the deck of the drone-carrier as well.

Exactly. Total madness!

Antonio Gracias, alongside Elon Musk, critiques the U.S. government's financial management system.

Here's a summary of the key points:

Lack of Reconciliation: Unlike businesses which have processes to reconcile accounts, the government simply allocates money without a subsequent check on how or if the funds were used as intended.

Budget Allocation Process: Money flows from Congress to departments via the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). Once Congress authorizes a budget, departments can request funds from the Treasury, which are disbursed without further oversight.

Absence of Control Mechanisms: There's no central controller or mechanism to track where the money goes after it's released, leading to a situation where "nobody knows where the money is flowing."

Audit Failures: The government's inability to pass audits stems from this lack of reconciliation. Without a system to match expenditures against authorized budgets, financial accountability is severely compromised.

Gracias explains that the traditional financial button to "figure it out" doesn't exist in government operations, highlighting a systemic flaw in how public funds are managed.
