Fair warning:
Do NOT update passwords until advised by FR admins that the site is back to normal.
After seeing the raft of posts, I believe that the server was either mirrored or hijacked.
I just now recalled that about an hour or so ago my screen header said 'sign in'. I hit refresh a couple of times and didn't pay any attention to it.
I now believe that those who signed in exposed their accounts.

Admins must either be locked out or sleeping.
Site needs to go offline for awhile.

Handfull of FReepers already posted they did such.
I'm just now good at remembering the one Jim gave me back when.

The guy sounded like English was foreign to him. Anyone know the whereabouts of Joe? Is he back in the basement bunker again?

This is what comes of allowing bloggers to post their stuff here.
I’ve been warning of this for years.
Blogmageddon is upon us.

Sorry. Took me a bit to realize what was going on since I was distracted by a movie.
I posted as soon as I did.

One person can be compromised by someone in China but that doesn’t mean you need to change your password. You are overvaluing your own worth.

They might have the passwords of those who logged in in that situation.

Screw you.
You are the reason the leftists web sites survive. You would rather see traffic directed towards a newspaper sites than a conservative blogger.

I don’t recommend that anyone log in or change passwords until this is rectified, following a post by moderators after an expected bit of downtime to fix things offline.
Until then, site is likely hijacked. I’ll be navigating away shortly, but will NOT be logging in if prompted in the morning.
