I believe this is about 40% of the entire FBI workforce
Update (1615ET): DOGE is at it again - kicking down the doors of FBI headquarters to obtain the names of roughly 5,000 agents who worked on Jan. 6 cases. This comes after the agency withheld specifics on those involved, such as their names.
Officials working for Elon Musk's DOGE were spotted by CNNentering FBI headquarters on Tuesday to collect the information.

President Trump on Tuesday said that he has left instructions that if Iran were to assassination him, the country should be destroyed.
The president made the remark after signing an executive order in the Oval Office that reiterates applying maximum pressure on Tehran by giving him all the possible tools to engage with its government, calling the action “very tough on Iran.”
“I’m going to sign it but hopefully we are not going to have to use it very much,” Trump said, adding that he wants to see about working out a deal with Iran so everybody “can live together.”
When questioned about Iran and proxies threatening to assassinate him, Trump said the U.S. adversary would be destroyed if that were to happen.
“They haven’t done that and that would be a terrible thing for them to do. Not because of me— if they did that, they would be obliterated. That would be the end. I’ve left instructions, if they do it, they get obliterated, there won’t be anything left. And, they shouldn’t be able to do it,” the president said

RC-135 Rivet Joint Surveillance Jet Just Flew Unprecedented Mission Off Mexico
An RC-135V looks to have flown two sorties in the past 48 hours over the tight confines of the Gulf of California that sits adjacent to a notorious cartel hotspot.
www.twz.com
U.S. Air Force RC-135V Rivet Joint conducted a highly unusual flight in the Gulf of California yesterday, between Mexico’s Baja Peninsula and the rest of that country, according to online flight tracking data. The strategic intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) plane looks to have done the same today.
The Rivet Joint is one of America’s most capable intelligence-gathering assets and the appearance of one off the Mexican coast is a significant development. This comes amid a major increase in U.S. military support for operations along the border with Mexico under President Donald Trump and talk of unprecedented direct action by American forces against drug cartels, which you can read more about in this separate TWZ feature.
Flight tracking software shows RC-135V serial number 64-14845 flew southwest from Offutt Air Force Base in Nebraska to the skies over southern California on Feb. 3. Offutt is home to the 55th Wing, which oversees the bulk of the Air Force’s Rivet Joint fleet along with an array of other ISR and highly specialized command and control aircraft. The jet then hooked south along the Pacific coast of the Baja Peninsula before flying up into the Gulf of California. The aircraft subsequently returned to Offutt following the same route, but in reverse.
Additional flight tracking data indicates that 64-14845 conducted a sortie along essentially the same route earlier today.

There may have been additional recent Rivet Joint flights over the Gulf of California prior to Jan. 3, but TWZ has not been immediately able to verify that independently.
Despite how relatively narrow the Gulf of California is, there are international waters and airspace above at its center. There are no indications that 64-14845 ever entered Mexican national airspace in the course of any of these flights.
When queried about 64-14845’s activity off the coast of Mexico, the U.S. Air Force redirected TWZ to U.S. Northern Command (NORTHCOM). We have also reached out to the Mexican Embassy in Washington, D.C.
It is worth noting up front that the use of RC-135V/W Rivet Joints to support operations in the Western Hemisphere, especially counter-drug missions, is not necessarily well known but is also not new, something TWZ has highlighted in the past. Rivet Joints flying sorties tasked to NORTHCOM, specifically, is something that occurs on a somewhat regular basis, as well.

In addition, RC-135V/Ws have been tracked flying in international airspace near Baja on the Pacific side in the past, typically in support of exercises in the ranges off of southern California.
However, by all accounts, Rivet Joint sorties in the Gulf of California are at least exceedingly rare, if not an entirely new collection area for the jets. From there, 64-14845 could listen into the northwestern corner of Mexico, an area that largely falls under the influence of the infamous Sinaloa Cartel.
Each airliner-sized RC-135V/W is packed with a variety of signals intelligence (SIGINT) systems that detect and intercept communications and other electronic transmissions. The aircraft can also geolocate and categorize the emitters sending out those signals, from radios to radars.
On a typical mission, an RC-135V/W’s crew consists of more than two dozen individuals, which includes linguists, electronic warfare officers, and other intelligence specialists who can immediately begin analyzing the information the SIGINT suites collect. The Rivet Joint also has an extensive communications array that allows data to be passed in near real-time to nearby units in the field and/or to nodes globally for further exploitation and dissemination.

Intercepting and geolocating communications chatter, together with other intelligence, can help establish so-called “patterns of life” for a select individual or group of individuals. That information, in turn, can be used to help further refine intelligence gathering strategies or even plan and execute targeted ground raids or strikes.
Similarly, data provided by Rivet Joints can also help in the creation of what are known as electronic orders of battle detailing the disposition of enemy or potentially hostile forces, especially air defense units and command and control nodes, in a given area. However, this is not applicable to the flights off the coast of Mexico.
Rivet Joint flights in the Gulf of California could provide a valuable additional stream of intelligence on cartel operations and other illicit activities, as well as just better situational awareness about what is happening in a critical cartel activity area. That would be in line with official statements from the Pentagon about its expanded presence around the southern border since Trump took office in January.
“We anticipate that overall, on the southwest border, [active-duty personnel] will provide real-time situational awareness of persons, vehicles, vessels and aircraft; and they’ll work with [U.S. Customs and Border Protection] on operator-level maintenance, movement and staging of [CBP] assets,” a senior U.S. military official said last month. “We also anticipate that there could be some additional airborne intelligence, surveillance, and support assets that would move down to the border to increase situational awareness.”
USNI News reported yesterday that U.S. Navy P-8A Poseidon maritime patrol planes are now conducting flights along the border with Mexico as another example of increased U.S. military ISR support. P-8As also have extensive SIGINT capabilities, as well as turrets with electro-optical and infrared video cameras.

Intelligence that RC-135V/Ws, as well as other ISR aircraft, collect could be passed along to other U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies, including to support interdiction operations on land and at sea. The U.S. military has an established history already of providing near real-time information from aerial surveillance platforms about suspected drug smuggling and other illicit activities to law enforcement agencies along the border, as TWZ has explored in detail in the past.
Certain intelligence might also be passed to authorities in Mexico to support their counter-drug and other operations. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum pledged to deploy 10,000 troops on her country’s side of the border to help combat drug trafficking yesterday as part of an ostensible deal to try to stave off a trade war with the United States. Sheinbaum’s predecessor, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, had similarly agreed to send 10,000 troops to the border back in 2021 as part of an earlier agreement struck with former President Joe Biden’s administration.
The appearance of a Rivet Joint in the Gulf of California also comes amid open discussion about the possibility of the U.S. military taking direct action against drug cartels in Mexico, including targeted strikes. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said in an interview on Fox last Friday that “all options will be on the table,” but added that any such decision to act would rest with Trump.
The capabilities that the Air Force’s RC-135V/Ws offer mean its presence could be a precursor to such an operational intent, dramatically increasing the quality and volume of available intelligence collection. Rivet Joints are used regularly in this general role in the lead-up to larger operations. As just one example, Rivet Joints flew regularly off the coast of Syria in the lead-up to U.S.-led missile strikes on multiple targets in that country in April 2018 during Trump’s first term in office.
At the same time, RC-135V/Ws are also used to collect regular intelligence from a standoff distance all over the world. So, it is important to stress that there are no indications at the time of writing that any such direct military activity is imminent or even planned. In addition, even if the flights were conducted with the explicit approval of the Mexican government, pursuing that course of action would have far-reaching ramifications. TWZ has published a feature just today exploring these issues, which you can find here.
Still, openly conducting Rivet Joint sorties in the Gulf California, together with the rest of the expanding U.S. military presence around the southern border, does already send broader signals to Mexico’s cartels across the region.

In the early days she she was naturally looing to protect the elderly, and she got more angry about it a little later, yet not for the reasons that it was toxic. Later still, Megyn Kelly talks to her about giving it to kids, and Tulsi, rightly as she understood it then, said it needs to be a choice, not the government... and at the end she gets into the subject of natural immunity, she is not stupid et cetera.
Edit: If she does past the gate and takes on the job, she will be professional (IMO) and uphold her duties, however, what she reads and becomes aware of on deeper intelligence matters, will likely haunt her, how could it not?

Good one, SummerLite.
Daniela Cambone had seemed to have had to reflect upon some names named, as she is very aware of some of the people Sam Cooper speaks of - high level people (Power Corporation et al), and yet she must have been prepared as some photos were flashed up.
Sam Cooper is ex Global News and Vancouver Sun - not that those are endorsements
As for the Vancouver fentanyl nexus, anyone from there has likely watched for years/decades of what appears to be a rather large money laundering operation, and if noticed (at least it was), HSBC looked like they owned the YVVR Vancouver airport (for lack of any vacant wall or even near runways where they were not well advertised).
One would have to go back and re look at it all (likely done), yet when there is talk of China, one often is reminded to think, which one? When the British handed Kong Kong (and there deep mainland China connections) back to China in 1997, did those connections, some nefarious and deep, suddenly go away? Arms, drugs, money, metals, gems, it was all there.

Trump points out how the last 100 years have been nothing but violence, and rather than continue this vicious cycle, Trump is exploring a more permanent plan for peace.

In his typical fashion Trump throws a monkey wrench into a carefully titrated hegelian dialect of managed chaos and devastation. If I lived in Gaza myself I would jump at the opportunity to get myself, my family, and my community as far away from Israel as possible.
What Trump is doing and proposing about Gaza is really interesting. Let’s face it, for many decades now “the international community“ (and that includes countries like Russia) wasn’t able to effectively handle things there, nor to come up with any new/bright solutions. It seems everyone either ignored or brushed away the evil Israel is committing and the horrible situation of the Palestinians, and if somebody “did something“, it was mostly lip service. Finally someone is proposing something new that could make a huge difference to Palestinians in terms of aid and stopping that horrible massacre. What Trump proposes could also be (or become) problematic for Israel. There might be more behind it.

palestinians dont wont to leave , they want to be in palestine...how can you spin this in to positive "trump" move?
if i may humbly recommend the video above ,please watch, you will know its a PLAN. long time made.
I don't know for sure, but it could prevent all of them from being slaughtered and starved to death, or continuing to endure severe ongoing torture at the hands of Israeli psychopaths. If that's the choice - and it seems to me that Trump has made this choice possible - then one can conceivably see how, although it is definitely ethnic cleansing and therefore not great, relocating the Palestinians out of the open-air concentration camp of Gaza would also be potentially life-saving.
