For 250 years, Pennsylvania has done more than support America’s defense—it has powered it. From shipbuilding in Philadelphia and munitions in the Lehigh Valley to advanced manufacturing across the Commonwealth, Pennsylvania has long delivered the industrial strength, technology, and talent that power America’s defense.
Today, that legacy is entering a new era. Pennsylvania’s engineers, researchers, manufacturers, and entrepreneurs are advancing the technologies that will define the future of defense ranging from high-precision manufacturing and critical minerals to robotics, automation, artificial intelligence, and space.
The 2026 Pennsylvania Defense & Innovation Summit will bring together America’s leading defense and technology leaders, including senior military commanders, industry CEOs, investors, innovators, workforce developers, and entrepreneurs, to accelerate innovation and strengthen America’s defense industrial base. Major investment and partnership announcements will be made at the Summit.
The Summit will also feature a curated Defense Expo and Industry Day showcasing Pennsylvania’s leading defense companies, emerging startups, and critical suppliers, creating direct connections with government procurement officials, prime contractors, and private capital.
With world-class infrastructure, a highly skilled workforce, and a rich manufacturing heritage, Pennsylvania is uniquely positioned to build the next generation of American defense capabilities and attract investment in the industries that strengthen our national security.

JFC! FFS! WTF! Wednesday
JFC!
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche is before the Senate Judiciary Committee today seeking confirmation to become the permanent Attorney General. The cosplay remains unchanged.
Ahead of Todd Blanche’s confirmation hearing, Puddle took to Lies Social to leave his former lawyer a five-star client review.
During the hearing, Sen. John Kennedy asked Blanche whether he considered Puddle a friend.
Blanche replied, “I’m his lawyer. I was his lawyer.”
Apparently the attorney-client relationship ended. The customer reviews did not.
Speaking of Blanche…
CNN (07/13/2026):
A federal judge on Monday said a controversial lawsuit brought by President Donald Trump against the IRS sought to “manipulate the judicial process” and that he acted in bad faith in bringing it.
US District Judge Kathleen Williams is ordering sanctions for the attorneys involved in the lawsuit, which led to an attempt to create the now-defunct $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization” fund for allies of the president. It was also used to justify a Trump administration order giving the president and his businesses amnesty for any past tax issues.

She ordered that her opinion be submitted to attorney disciplinary boards in in New York and Washington, DC, that are reviewing preexisting professional ethics complaints against acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward.

A spokesman for Trump’s private legal team said: “The IRS wrongly allowed a rogue, politically-motivated employee to leak private and confidential information about President Trump, his family, and the Trump Organization to the New York Times, ProPublica and other left-wing news outlets, which was then illegally released to millions of people. President Trump continues to hold those who wrong America and Americans accountable.”
The settlement between the IRS and Trump this year stemmed from a significant leak of tax information on thousands of wealthy individuals, including Trump, by a government contractor six years ago.

The Treasury Department has apparently entered its fan club era.

The rest of the tweet says: and the promise of a nation dedicated to preserving freedom for all.
Politico (07/15/2026):
The U.S. Mint will begin striking one-dollar coins featuring a portrait of President Donald Trump on its face in commemoration of the nation’s semiquincentennial anniversary.
[snip]
Living people, including presidents, rarely grace American currency thanks to a compilation of laws, though the new coinage appears to skirt around those restrictions.
Trump signed bipartisan legislation in 2020 authorizing the Treasury Secretary to issue dollar coins during the 2026 calendar year carrying designs that are “emblematic of the United States semiquincentennial.”
That law states that no person, living or dead, could be included on the reverse side of the coin — but some have argued it appears to allow for Trump’s portrait (or other living people) to remain on the coin face.
However, federal law is generally understood to prohibit any living person from appearing on most currency. When Congress created the Presidential $1 Coin Program in 2007, it also dictated that no living presidents, or those who had died in the past two years, would be featured on those coins. And an 1866 law fully prohibits living people from appearing on paper currency, though it doesn’t specifically mention coinage.
Politico. 07/15/2026.
It’s never a great sign when the news story needs a section explaining why this probably isn’t supposed to happen.
To be fair, the final design is a noticeable step back from the campaign-style draft unveiled last October.
ATTENTION ALL PATRIOTS: America is back, and so is the one-dollar coin.⁰@POTUS @realDonaldTrump will forever be the face of America’s 250th Birthday, thanks to @SecScottBessent and @TreasurerBeach.

Law for me, but not for thee. Totally on brand for Puddle2.0.

WTF?
Yesterday, DHS reportedly instructed ICE agents to scale back vehicle stops after a series of deadly encounters.
BREAKING: ICE agents have been directed to largely suspend vehicle stops until further notice, I'm told, marking a major reversal in recent tactics following two ICE-involved fatal shootings over the last week. https://t.co/GKgF1uJUM0

Early this morning, Puddle publicly urged ICE to “keep those Crime Stat Records coming!”
My Coffee Talk Take: Quit killing people. Quit lying about the people you’ve killed. Quit pretending you’re in an action movie. You’re not Rambo. Just quit being horrible fucksticks.
