@Blissfuljoy22 True. But somehow that gives his renunciation even more credibility. Even he had a threshold he could not cross.

Well spoken.

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.

Wow! After Donald Trump mocked Gavin Newsom and other people with dyslexia and learning disabilities, Newsom’s wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, just completely torched him.
The end is the best part.

An objectively wild career move and one I couldn’t be happier with or prouder of. The world needs more local reporters more than it needs more national ones and even if I go back to national reporting one day, I’ll be a much better reporter for this experience.

I was wondering why this guy disappeared from politics Twitter. Voluntarily going from NBC political reporter to editor of a regional newspaper covering a population of roughly 150k people seems like a wild career move, but if it makes you and your loved ones happy, go for it.

I found this incredibly funny. Soon writing comedy for fake babies will be a thing. Saturday Morning Live. What’s next: dog standup? Rodent standup? Cockroach standup? So a priest and a rabbi and two million cockroaches walk into a bar……

This feels cursed…but I have to admit, I laughed. I’d absolutely watch a full Netflix special of this

Someone is using AI to make babies do stand up comedy. We are cooked.

Hope to see some of you this month. The paperback of my "Demon of Unrest" launches next week, and I'll be doing a number of book events in various parts of the country.

Hey, me too. And I wrote the book before this debacle. As Churchill said. History doesn’t repeat itself, but it rhymes.

@OnceMoreJM @exlarson I just started reading it and can’t agree more!

Dramatist, critic & Nobel Prize winner George Bernard Shaw (pic) wrote the following words in Man & Superman (1905): “Old men are dangerous: it doesn’t matter to them what is going to happen to the world.” His words were wise then & it’s very clear that they’re even wiser now.

Concur. I was just out in it. Not Jack London level, but close.
