As pushes to reform the BSA increase, we're going to see an epic showdown between factions of the US Gov that want to protect citizen's constitutional rights, and the alleged "pro-freedom" faction which has bet much of their networth on the NatSec surveillance complex (Musk, Sacks, Lutnick, possibly Andreessen if rumours on DOGE advisory position are true) – therefore unable to conceed that the US' massive surveillance of its own citizens is inefficient in fighting crime while infringing on the rights of the American people without tanking their own gainz. This may actually be the administration to finally transcend the nonsense partisanship of left vs. right. What a time to be alive 🍿 h/t @Yaël image

And Palmer Luckey will be a big one to watch. With Palantir and Andruil challenging the major legacy defense contractors, this will be huge parallel fight for influence and future contacts.
also, don’t sleep on Matthew Pines’ analysis of the UFO tech declassification as well — there are plenty of kooks in that world, but cracking open the Special Access Programs and moving them to the new tech defense contractors is gaining serious steam.
