After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.
Zohran Mamdani on whether he supports a united Ireland: "I gotta be honest, I haven't thought enough on that question."
In the dramatic circumstances of war, information must guard against the risk of turning into propaganda. It is every journalist's duty to verify the news, so as not to become a megaphone for power. They must show the suffering that war always brings to populations, which entails showing the face of war and recounting it through the eyes of victims.
The NYT’s @TomFriedman writing with clarity and power on the seismic defeat suffered by Trump-Miller-Noem in Minneapolis. Worth reading the whole piece (linked in next tweet) but this stood out.
