Yup, Germany needs better highspeed railways. It only takes 1h45 from Paris to Strasbourg which is roughly halfway between Paris and Berlin. So the whole trip could potentially be under 4h downtown to downtown.

Derick Hanna, Vice President of Inter-Con (USIP's security contractor) , told O’Brien that “DOGE threatened to cancel every federal contract Inter-Con held if they did not come to the USIP building and let Kenneth Jackson [the purported new head of the Institute] inside.”

How big a threat was that? According to USASpending, Inter-Con has $209 million in government contractors currently.
