@grok @rhcorni78 @NOELreports No tech is inherently evil, only it's uses. It would take almost no effort to go from targeted surveillance to indiscriminate spying on all Americans and the public wouldn't even know it had been done. That is what people are concerned about.

Palantir, co-founded by Peter Thiel in 2003 (with early CIA backing), makes data analytics software (Gotham, Foundry) that integrates massive datasets for US gov agencies like NSA, DoD, ICE, FBI, and others. Controversies: Critics (privacy groups, some Dems, Intercept/Guardian reports) say it enables mass surveillance—e.g., post-Snowden NSA tools, ICE tracking, predictive policing, and recent Trump-era contracts linking IRS/SSA/HHS data into centralized systems, risking privacy abuse. Defenders (incl. Palantir) argue it's for targeted security, fraud detection, counterterrorism—not indiscriminate spying on all Americans—and saves lives in war/intel ops. Thiel's libertarian-ish views on tech/gov add to the debate. It's powerful but debated tech, not inherently "evil."

Mykhailo Fedorov met Palantir CEO Alex Karp in Kyiv to expand AI and defence tech cooperation. Ukraine says work with Palantir has created a detailed air attack analysis system, deployed AI tools for large intelligence datasets and integrated technology into deep strike planning. Brave1 Dataroom now gives developers real battlefield data to train AI models. #Ukraine

@sentdefender I can 100% assure you that Russia will not pause all kinetic activity.

President Donald J. Trump has posted to his Truth Social account that there will be a 3-day ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine May 9-11th to commemorate Russia's Victory Day. The ceasefire will pause all kinetic activity and include the swap of 1,000 prisoners from each side.

@YosiOldak @Osinttechnical It's going to a museum. Making it flyable would be for the purposes of an airshow.

@Osinttechnical What for?

The Maverick Act just passed the Senate, allowing the US Navy to transfer a trio of retired F-14D Tomcats and necessary spare parts to the U.S. Space and Rocket Center. The F-14s have also been authorized to potentially be restored to flying condition.

@WARDCRIMINOLOGY @me34879 @MaskedMan1947 @Osinttechnical What they mean is we have never officially declared war since WWII. There is a specific governmental process for that that has not been enacted since WWII.

@me34879 @MaskedMan1947 @Osinttechnical Not in one you won.

President Trump, in a post tonight, compares the “Iran Excursion” to other wars.

@drago_ek @carn___ @MaskedMan1947 @Osinttechnical Saddam Hussein and the Ba'ath Party no longer exist. Iraq is now a strategic partner of the US in the middle east. We have semi-permanent military bases in Iraq alongside a permanent military presence. I'd call that a win.

@carn___ @MaskedMan1947 @Osinttechnical You cant be serious right? You do know that the Iraqi insurgency happened right? That one didnt gave America a win. It was a strategic net loss on most metrics. 4,000+ US Troops killed and you say its a win? Why you think no more forever wars came from?

@Jacob_S_H @NOELreports This is as good a confirmation you are likely to get.

@NOELreports Cool if confirmed 💛💙

❗️Preliminary information coming in that Russia lost an Mil Mi-8 helicopter. Waiting for confirmation. #Russia

@NOELreports Damage is clearly from an internal detonation.

New footage of the missile strike on VNIIR-Progress in Cheboksary. One version says the missile entered the structure and caused a fire, though damage to the protective net is not visible. Another version circulating online says the missile detonated in the air in front of the building after hitting an obstacle. #Russia

@OracleSpeaksUSA @YourAnonNews But corporate socialism is A OK right? Bail out the banks, the automotive manufacturers, railroad companies, and the airline industry. But when individuals are suffering and need financial help the response is scorn. How dare those poor people ask for help. Maximum hypocrisy.

No this is NOT what 65% looks like, this is what a niche deep blue democrat socialist part of the country sounds like [Prince George County, MD near DC], they want socialism and communism... So it's not surprising they would boo Trump. Even though Trump is the best American president in our lifetime!

This is what 65%+ disapproval looks like.

@drago_ek @Osinttechnical Probably because it's AI generated. Sent this to an air defender I know. His response was, and I quote "What in the mcfuck".

@Osinttechnical The third image might seem misleading.

New post from President Trump this morning, as multiple commercial vessels have been targeted by Iranian forces.

@Osinttechnical @HLC_actual You're the Air Defense guy. What is number 3 in the USA row?

@KyleSmiley12 @CENTCOM And who are you proposing we drop the "Massive Ordinance Air Blast" on? Key word there being AIR. The IRGC are hiding like rats underground. All a MOAB is gonna do in Iran is kill a bunch of civilians.

@CENTCOM Do we have anymore MOABs in inventory? Would be a shame to let them expire on the shelves and not utilize them. I say at least one for every other false claim they make on their propaganda channels about hitting US assets. Make them rethink lying to their population.

🚫 CLAIM: Iranian state media claims that Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps hit a U.S. warship with two missiles. ✅ TRUTH: No U.S. Navy ships have been struck. U.S. forces are supporting Project Freedom and enforcing the naval blockade on Iranian ports.

@jass1stnamehugh @Osinttechnical It can't without congressional approval so they are going to end the current war and start a new one. How to bypass Congress with this one easy trick!

@Osinttechnical Okay now I'm confused, is the war resuming or not?

The Trump-announced US mission to guide ships out of the Persian Gulf will not involve US Navy escorts -WSJ The US will instead instruct ships on safe avenues of passage through the Strait of Hormuz, and coordinate with shipping and insurance companies.

@Bravesfan5643 @Osinttechnical Who the fuck knows. With this admin you ask a dozen high ranking officials that should all be on the same page the same question and get a dozen completely different answers. It's just one giant shit show.

@Osinttechnical Looks like it's more than technical support

@1967mustangman @fyve_hole @Rude_Jenkins @Osinttechnical @flightradar24 @linamkhan Why would you want to merge with an unhealthy company that can't weather a storm? If the storm comes it's just going to drag you down and you'll end up kicking it loose anyways.

@AgentX2006 @fyve_hole @Rude_Jenkins @Osinttechnical @flightradar24 @linamkhan Im not talking about a bail out man. Im talking about preventing a merger.

@RobertW21344898 @NOELreports Have you met a member of MAGA?

@NOELreports How stupid do they think people are?

❗️🤡 Krasnodar governor Veniamin Kondratiev claimed footage of “oil rain” in Tuapse was a Ukrainian information operation, alleging drones dropped burning fuel to create dramatic images of explosions and smoke after the refinery strike. #Russia

@NOELreports "The report also says Witkoff is reluctant to make the trip by train." I don't suppose that has anything to do with Russia bombing civilian passenger trains right?

❗️ Kyiv Independent says Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are delaying a visit to Kyiv as skepticism grows in Washington that renewed peace engagement will produce results. The report also says Witkoff is reluctant to make the trip by train. #US

@1967mustangman @fyve_hole @Rude_Jenkins @Osinttechnical @flightradar24 @linamkhan Yes that's how capitalism is supposed to work. Either you run your company well and prosper or you fuck it up and fail. It's not the government's job to bail you out. Can't believe people out here calling for socialism for corporations and condemning it for individuals. WTF?!?!

@AgentX2006 @fyve_hole @Rude_Jenkins @Osinttechnical @flightradar24 @linamkhan Yes but listen carefully. If you are a healthier company you can weather economic shocks.

@fyve_hole @Rude_Jenkins @1967mustangman @Osinttechnical @flightradar24 @linamkhan Or you know this shit show of a war in Iran drove fuel prices through the roof and they can't continue to run on their razor thin margins anymore. Nah couldn't possibly have anything to do with that.

@Rude_Jenkins @1967mustangman @Osinttechnical @flightradar24 @linamkhan No, he is correct. She fucked up. If you are going to “fix” things, you have to start by breaking up the “too big to fail” first. Then you can stop the others from getting too big. But this was Fire! Aim! Ready! At its worst.

@1967mustangman @SpiritAirlines Yeah it couldn't possibly have anything to due with skyrocketing fuel prices because of this wholly unnecessary boondoggle of a war.

I hope every @SpiritAirlines employee give Liz a call to say thanks.

@roman_srey @NOELreports Please explain to me who is hurt by letting them fill out government paperwork in their own language. Please explain to me how that "Erases the Ukrainian language". Please explain to me why such a minor concession is impossible. 2/2

@AgentX2006 @NOELreports DO NOT PUSH THIS FALSE EQUIVALENCE ON ME Ukraine is not "SHOOTING HUNGARIANS ON SITE FOR SPEAKING HUNGARIAN" FALSE EQUIVALENCE BYE... you think you're "friendly and trying to'fight for what's right'" but you're LITERALY GOING BEYOND TYHE SCOPE OF ANY LAW ON EARTH.

❗️Bloomberg says Hungary’s next prime minister Peter Magyar wants Ukraine to grant broader rights to the Hungarian minority in exchange for backing Kyiv’s EU accession. The reported demands largely mirror Orban’s 11-point list from 2024. #Hungary
