I would like to know why now that I am a paid subscriber I no longer get Robert Hubbell in my email, but I have to go searching for him in my junk. Anybody have a comment about that?
Basically this is the only good news I could find since Turmp got elected. I wrote: "Trump survived Pussygate unscathed. Will he survive Signalgate unscathed? It appears that our military and intelligence agencies are being run by Col. Klink and Sgt. Shutlz." Here: https://halbrown.substack.com/p/trump-survived-pussygate-unscathed
I do think he'll find a scapegoat and bounce back with renewed need to wreak havoc with all kinds of revenge.
There are several organizations out there organizing protests and demonstrations: Indivisible, Move On, UltraViolet, 50501, and more. Seems to me it would be a lot more effective if these groups joined together and created a single fighting force. Certainly easier for folks trying to keep track of events scattered among different organizers. And one large event rather than several small ones carries a lot more weight.
"This story isn’t going to go away. And given the rank amateurishness and smug arrogance of those in the Trump administration, the chickens are going to come home to roost. Bigly. Stay tuned."
From your mouth (pen) to God's ears. I hope you are correct!
Bless you, Robert Hubbell, and I hope you take good care of your cold and feel better. Thank you for your hard work even when you're feeling like crap.

Mr. Hubbell, my wife and I have enjoyed your comments for several years. We find your comments focused and insightful. Thank you. Last Tuesday, 25 March, in a CNN news cast, I think I heard Mr. Trump strongly endorse coal. He stated we now have coal that is "clean". That is a quote. Am I the only one who heard this? Comments please. eric.philippi@gmail.com
I’m remembering (accurately?) that the person you mentioned… has mentioned “clean coal” in his first time around. I do wonder if he knows what it is. (To be fair, I don’t.) So, tonight it occurs to me that he is just “playing the hits.”
I'm glad to see that signalgate is still front and center in the news. I hope it stays that way until we see some consequences from this madness.
I still have vivid memories of the j6 attack on the capital, and how Mitch McConnell and many others in Congress came out against Trump. Trump appointed FBI director Christopher Wray called it domestic terrorism. I was positive that we would see Justice served. How did we go from watching these terrorists beat 144 capital police officers as they defecated and urinated in the Halls and threatened to kill vice president Pence and hang speaker Pelosi. Now 1,500 of these same domestic terrorists where pardoned by their King and considered Patriots. I even read that the j6 choir is going to do a concert at the Kennedy Center. The way the Republicans are trying to change history is one of my biggest fears.
Robert, as always you are incisive and on target. You have been continually calling for a standard message with Democratic leaders that is recognizable, short and to the point. Rather than doing extended discussions, we need to adopt STOP THE STEAL in red white and blue. We can also use the same basis to keep ringing the same note with variations - Stop the Signal, Stop the Fraud, etc. I'd appreciate your thoughts please.
I'm sorry ~ I don't see the Congressional Committee investigations of "Signalgate" as anything but an opportunity to whitewash yet another Republican debacle, this time under the aegis of Congress.
The degree of incompetence and disregard for proper security procedures by the members of the Houthi PC small group is mind-boggling. There are a few, like Marco Rubio, who have participated in other legitimate Principals Committee meetings and should know the difference. Most of them clearly don't.
A few observations:
(1) This was clearly a classified conversation. Discussing impending attacks is defined automatically as TS/Noforn, regardless of the classification of the chat. This is according to standard DNI guidance. You can't declassify such a conversation before the attack. It would be like doing an unclassified Signal chat the day before D-Day.
(2) The Russians have hacking groups dedicated to breaking into Signal chats. They could do it in many ways, particularly if participants are using their personal smartphones. If one can gain access to even one member of the group's phone and download spyware, all the activities of the group will be instantly available.
(3) The participants in this Signal chat behaved as if this were the regular routine. This means that there are probably hundreds or even thousands of Signal chats out there by members of the Trump administration. We could be talking about a massive compromise. The Congressional investigators should demand a record of all such chats, including the subjects of the ones that have been illegally deleted.
(4) I would expect that if the Russians or Chinese were listening in regularly on Signal chats, they would not want to tip their hand unless they had to act on information that directly affected their security -- and maybe not even then. It's far better to keep listening and accumulate more and more compromising information. Unlike our current leadership, the Russians, Chinese, and others know a thing or two about intelligence work.
(5) All of the principals in this chat should resign. None will. Hegseth and Waltz should be fired. They probably won't be, unless new and even worse Signal chats come out.
one of the idiots on the war plan was in Moscow. Every American is monitored so the Russians
surely knew about it before bombs fell. Another thing reported by the Atlantic are the insults
directed to NATO. Makes me sure that the Dems should send a delegation to Europe and see what together can we do now and when we retake the Congress unless Trump manages to cancel the election.
The flurry of headline grabbing moves by T seem defensive and meant to clog the newsfeed and eventually the courts in light of the devastating incompetence and stupidity of the nest of ninnies that were appointed by T and approved by congress. Thank you for keeping us informed straightforwardly in a screwy world. I commend you and Richardson and Snyder and more that we are reading religiously which bring us to..... Maddow providing details that need to be recognized like the new leader of the Department of Faith, another grifter, though probably not a security threat yet.

Slightly off topic, but I have a question.

E pluribus unum, y'all!

I don’t follow CNN and did not hear this comment.

Perhaps it is time for those of us who are in the MAJORITY to utilize Bannon's "flood the zone" strategy.
Has anyone heard news of the March 15 postcard writing effort?
