- Saving the very best for the last.👇 x.com/dave_brown24/s…
Austin is considering undoing his predecessor’s last-minute decision to elevate the top civilian Pentagon official overseeing special operations matters, the Pentagon chief continues to roll back the policies of the Trump administration politico.com/news/2021/02/2… @laraseligman - For those who are blocked by Flynn, note his Twitter header photo has changed to the QAnon explicit exhortation of "Digital Soldiers" and he's now included that as a hashtag.
- For the first times in their lives, both Trump and McConnell were telling the truth.👇McConnell’s blistering criticism of Trump, hinting he could be prosecuted for his actions leading up to Jan. 6, has prompted the lengthiest statement from the former president since he left office. He calls him a “dour, sullen, and unsmiling political hack.”
- Kushner: What are those pointy things? Dunford: Ahhm...rifles son. Kushner: And those little tube thingies? Dunford: Ahhm...bullets son.
- The word "fascism" is never even once mentioned and one wonders why not?🙄🤔A deeply reported look at what Trump and his allies have in mind for wielding power in a second term. w @charlie_savage & @maggieNYT nytimes.com/2023/07/17/us/…
- This is just a stunning statement of what accused US intel leaker Jack Teixeira was actually supposed to be doing instead of having access to the most highly classified US intel.🙄🤦♂️👇Replying to @DanLamothe“Their primary role was to ensure the Heating, Ventilation and Air Condition (HVAC) system was operating properly and answer the phones,” the Air Force found.
- Replying to @julianbarnes and @emptywheelThank you for validating my SWAG (Scientific Wild Assed Guess) that it was Brazil.👇Replying to @LemonSlayerUSGive a long, hard look at Brazil! Toebbe's thought process: 1. Don't give US compact sub reactor tech to foes like Iran or North Korea. 2. Toebbe knows damn well Brazil is building a nuclear-powered sub. 3. Toebbe doesn't consider Brazil a US foe.
- Replying to @MarkHertlingFwiw - While the Ukrainian strike may have some level of military significance, I think the bigger impact is the remarkably similar symbolic and psychological impact for both Ukraine & Russia. For Ukraine - See what we can do! For Russia - See what we can do!
- Replying to @LemonSlayerUS @gregpmiller and 2 othersThe last ¶ just takes one's breath away. If the whistleblower "learned of it through other means", and that translates to "national technical means", that's firestorm material!
- Can you say "politicizing intelligence" from acting DNI Ric Grenell and his senior advisor Kash Patel who was Devin Nunes's chief staffer? I thought you could!The president says the intelligence community will release information tomorrow to support his claim that he was not briefed on virus until late January despite reporting that he was warned earlier.
- Note that the whistleblower says "Over the past 4 months..." This wasn't just because of Trump's July 25 phone call with President Zelenskyy of Ukraine. intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/…
- Replying to @joshscampbell @Susan_Hennessey and 2 othersNAS Pensacola is a US Navy base for pilot training. For training people to fly planes. So how does a member of the Saudi military training there presumably for flying planes 1) get a hold of gun/personal weapon for shooting, 2) is able to bring it on base?
