US Officials Form List of Journalists Helping Migrants for Questioning - Reports

 

The US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has formed a database, comprising details on 59 journalists, lawyers and activists, who have supported migrants, for questioning them at US-Mexican border checkpoints as part of a "national security investigation," the NBC broadcaster reported, citing leaked documents and interviews.

 

The broadcaster added, citing the documents, that the list included many people who provided legal assistance or humanitarian aid to asylum seekers at the US-Mexican border or reported about immigration issues.

 

The list, titled "San Diego Sector Foreign Operations Branch: Migrant Caravan FY-2019 Suspected Organizers, Coordinators, Instigators, and Media" was dated January 9, the outlet continued.

 

According to the reports, the authorities had already questioned 12 individuals, who were part of the database, while nine other people had been arrested.

 

The CBP, in its turn, told the outlet, that the measure was aimed at collecting "evidence that might be needed for future legal actions" and for determining if the border unrest, which happened last November, was orchestrated.

 

Last year, a caravan, comprising thousands of migrants from Central America, began moving toward the United States. However, after reaching the border, the migrants, seeking to break through it, were repelled by US border guards, who used tear gas against them, on November 25.

Obama Judge: “Including Citizenship Question On The Census Is Fundamentally Counterproductive To The Goal Of Obtaining Accurate Citizenship Data”

 

An Obama appointed judge, Richard Seeborg, ruled that asking people if they’re citizens prevents citizens from being counted.

Seriously. That’s what he said.

 

This might be the dumbest thing a federal judge has ever said.

 

“The record in this case has clearly established that including the citizenship question on the 2020 census is fundamentally counterproductive to the goal of obtaining accurate citizenship data about the public,” Seeborg said.

 

This judge has a history of making idiotic rulings. FLASHBACK: Judge Seeborg tosses case brought by Jews intimidated by Muslims on the Berkeley campus.

 

A lawsuit by two Jewish students accusing UC Berkeley of turning a blind eye to alleged intimidation by Arab students and fostering a climate of anti-Semitism has been dismissed by a federal judge who said school officials have no duty to intervene in campus political disputes.

 

And that’s how the left takes anti-semitism mainstream and makes it legitimate. Muslims attack Jews, just like Ilhan Omar does, just like the Muslim students on Berkeley campuses did, and the left claims it’s not a religious issue of bigoted intolerant muslims hating jews, it’s just a political question about Israel. Nothing more to see here. Move along.

How DARPA, The Secretive Agency That Invented The Internet, Is Working To Reinvent It

 

The agency has launched a program that takes advantage of the computing resources of smartphones, tablets, connected vehicles, IoT endpoints, and more.

 

Is the internet becoming obsolete?

 

The government agency that invented the network that runs the world seems to think so. So the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has launched a program aimed at “completely rethinking how to network and compute” by taking advantage of the computing resources that have begun to saturate the world around us in the form of smartphones, tablets, connected vehicles, iInternet of things endpoints, and more.

 

DARPA’s Dispersed Computing program (or DCOMP, as it’s known) adds another moniker to the set of emerging technologies that includes fog computing, edge computing, and distributed computing. DCOMP takes these paradigms one step further, however, and envisions a network that is able to borrow processing and communications resources from its many nodes as and when needed to accomplish whatever task its users might throw at it.

 

While today’s internet is fine for everything from liking pictures of your BFF’s breakfast to swaying elections, the Department of Defense, which runs DARPA, will point the DCOMP program at transforming the battlefield first, enabling warfighters to collect, transmit, and process information even in situations where access to a remote data or operations centers—or even a reliable laptop computer—cannot be counted on.

 

The military now relies on networked information processing more heavily than ever before. And leadership at the highest levels of the Pentagon is said to be focused on an overarching strategy that seeks to connect all the military’s devices—from the most basic sensor on the front lines to tanks, aircraft, and specialized devices in the field, to overseas operation centers and massive data stores back home—into a single networked organism in which any node is able to share, access, and act on information that is global in scope (given the right security clearance, of course).

 

But such a concept relies on a communications and processing network that can handle such a dynamic mission. And the internet, arguably, can’t.

“Even though DCOMP is in its early stages, it promises to be transformational,” Smith says. Mouchtaris agrees. “What we’re talking about with dispersed computing is a completely new internet technology that’s much more suitable to today’s environment, and future environments,” he says. “It’s hard to predict what great new things will be possible, but we’re working on an infrastructure that provides a much more advanced internet than today, and which will hopefully fuel the next generation of apps that will change the world.”

 

At Andreessen Horowitz, Levine is looking for similar developments: “I’m waiting for the entrepreneur to come in who blows us away with the idea that there’s some next thing that needs to be done relative to [dispersed computing]. I don’t really know what it is yet, but when I see it I’ll let you know.”
