The estimate: #Trump sending about 4,000 #NationalGuard #troops and 700 #Marines to deal with unrest in #LosAngeles will cost $134 million for 60 days of operations.
Backlash: #California #sued Trump over #military presence, arguing that it was #unconstitutional #lies Bigly Lies & Trillions of lies. #america is the loser. no more "media" quibbling about #constitutional #crisis - we are in the vortex of full on attack - #democracy #nokings Do not expect #congress #scotus 2 save us nokings.org

#DJTs volatile #tariff tantrums are inflicting greater damage than expected, but those caustic cash #crisis effects are largely concentrated in the U.S. #economy according to analysis by global experts studying matter with Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.

Mfg data in US at lowest numbers since 2009 — a signal of collapsing #export demand. The S&P 500 lags behind global #stocks indexes in worst relative performance since 1993.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the strain sees 83% of US CEOs expecting & preparing for an ugly #economic #TrumpRecession

The #FBI and #DCIS disrupted #Danabot. #ESET was one of several companies that cooperated in this effort. welivesecurity.com/en/eset-res
#ESETresearch has been involved in this operation since 2018. Our contribution included providing technical analyses of the malware and its backend infrastructure, as well as identifying Danabot’s C&C servers. Danabot is a #MaaS #infostealer that has also been seen pushing additional malware – even #ransomware, such as #LockBit, #Buran, and #Crisis – to compromised systems.
We have analyzed Danabot campaigns all around the world and found a substantial number of distinct samples of the malware, as well as identified more than 1,000 C&Cs.
This infostealer is frequently promoted on underground forums. The affiliates are offered an administration panel application, a backconnect tool for real-time control of bots, and a proxy server application that relays the communication between the bots and the C&C server.
IoCs are available in our GitHub repo. You can expect updates with more details in the coming days. github.com/eset/malware-ioc/tr

Eight EU countries form a coalition on crisis preparedness.

Crisis preparedness is a national competence across the EU but the new coalition of the willing - made up of Belgium, Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxemburg, the Netherlands, and Sweden - said in a statement that "efforts from member states and the EU's institutions" are needed "as crises have become increasingly cross-border, cross-sectoral and grow in complexity".

Excellent historical #longread on how to prepare societies to avoid catastrophe and collapse.
Relevant for #sealevelrise discussion yesterday and much more with some uncomfortable pointers on the way things might develop

florianjehn - Preventing a #crisis is better than solving one after it happens. The challenge lies in recognizing signs early and knowing how to intervene. The latest entry in my living literature review explores three key questions: How can we detect crises before they emerge? What actions can prevent them from materializing? What preparations make these tasks easier? Read more in my new post here: existentialcrunch.substack.com

Who of you lives in the northern US or Canada and has land on which we can park the Vulpibus for a little while until we get our shit together?

It's a big ask I know, but this is a huge need with massive consequences for us and those we will help. We can't stay on truckstops and campsites much longer.

Throughout Central Texas, where two decades of booming population growth have come with a massive increase in domestic wastewater — mostly human sewage. The effluent from wastewater treatment plants appears clean and clear, but it contains high levels of organic nutrients that can cause algae blooms and devastate native aquatic ecosystems when dumped into streams and rivers.
“There’s a hell of a lot more people pissing in the pond,”“Private citizens should not have to be enforcing the environmental standards of the state.” Attempts to pass statewide regulations of discharges into waterways have repeatedly failed.
"Texas is becoming an open sewer"
