@JonathanCohn False. GA state legislature would have to approve the date change and it is Republican majority. They’d have to incentive to do so.

The only reason you would choose South Carolina over Georgia -- a state that both (a) has a larger Black population and (b) is a swing state -- is to appease Jim Clyburn, and that is not a way to run a party.

@Mpolymer Is it smart or appropriate to have officials projecting this to Iran right now?

This statement is very alarming, if it is accurate. I very much hope it is not….”But the official, speaking on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media, cautioned that the expansion of U.S. operations will be limited by dwindling stockpiles of air defense and long-range munitions and constraints on the ability to surge more troops and aircraft into the area because of battle damage.
“We do not have enough to safely sustain operations, and I don’t think the White House is aware of that,” the official said.” washingtonpost.com/national-secur…

@tina_spitfire Bots talking to bots talking to bots

I’m not a Republican, I’m a MAGA!! There’s a difference…..MAGA’s have no RINO’s

@25YearsAgoLive Chief Pfeifer will witness American 11 crash into the WTC, be the first chief arriving at the scene and see his brother Kevin on Engine 33 for one last time alive. It will all be captured on the Naudet brother’s 9/11 documentary.

President Bush makes his first visit to New York City as President. He visits Ellis Island with Senator Hillary Clinton, meets with the FDNY, and has a photo op with the World Trade Center.

@hissgoescobra The ACTUAL new AF-1 aircraft reportedly also will not have aerial refueling. In fairness, the plan would always be to get POTUS to an E4B NAOC.

This is a big security threat. Without midair refueling, it can’t stay aloft and command nuclear forces for any significant period of time. Obviously, the lack of missile defense is a huge issue, as well.

@emilyjashinsky @femelafemela “Who helped run the network into the ground” is incompatible with the fact that 60 minutes ratings have gone up, so you tried to change your tone and say it was about him being bias. See? That wasn’t so hard.

@femelafemela what's incompatible?

Imploring people who have reasonable concerns about the direction of CBS not to credulously elevate the claims of someone like Scott Pelley who helped run the network and industry into the ground

@SpencerSays USAF 1st Helicopter Squadron doing routine training. They are based out of JB Andrews.

5 choppers over dc just now

@jbarro Here I am, flying through DC airspace every day, blissfully unaware that an airliner was ALREADY shot out of the sky. #alwayslearning

Pete Hegseth won't be satisfied until another airliner full of civilians is shot out of the sky on approach to DCA

@ichbinilya It’s a masterful dance of selective history to pretend the allies conducted strategic bombing. The targeting of specific sites rarely was successful and by the time America focused on Japan, we were firebombing entire cities.

In his campaign to subdue Great Britain, Hitler ordered the Luftwaffe to shift from attacking the RAF to bombing population centers. Hence the London Blitz — explicitly a campaign of terror. The Allies also struck German cities, of course, but throughout they war they increasingly shifted their bombing campaign to Germany’s industrial production and elements of their supply chain. We know which strategy worked better. And it strikes me that the Russian and Ukrainian bombing campaigns against each other are like an echo of that war: Ukraine is methodically striking Russian oil facilities and war factories; Russia’s Shahed drones are largely directed at Ukrainian cities. Maybe the cruelty will again prove its own undoing.

@johnkonrad What an incredibly ignorant take. We have 2 MEU’s and airborne staged and likely to be used in some capacity. So how is McChrystal’s point about going from 30k feet to the ground incorrect? What happens when we have multiple casualties from drones? Walk away? Of course not.

Trump is NOT escalating this into a major ground war. Let me spell this out with crayons. I’m a US Merchant Marine Captain, O6 (not O3) equivalent. We are a tiny forgotten service with one MF overarching specialty: moving escalatory armies overseas. It’s true a general like McChrystal has far more knowledge about what to do AFTER his tanks roll off our ships. But BEFORE those tanks roll off? They are OUR cargo. We are the specialists. We climb all around those tanks. We secure them, move them, deliver them. Our Commandant, who I talk to every single week, is in charge of that lift. Not whatever general is waiting on the pier. Right now we are in the BEFORE stage. I absolutely 💯 know more about this than any general because I have spent decades training and living the life for THIS MOMENT. When generals want to move escalatory army divisions overseas, they call us. We don’t specialize in every branch. Naval, Air Force, USMC, Special Forces movements have their own lift pipelines. We can help, but that’s not our core mission. But if you want to escalate a war with heavy ground forces? I get a call. The Air Force has already called us to move more bombs into theater. So yes, the air campaign can escalate. But there are ZERO plans to escalate this into a large scale ground invasion. ZERO. This cannot be done by airlift. The USAF can’t even get their own bombs overseas right now, let alone divisions of army units. And if I do get the call, it will be months before we are landing tanks.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ So I repeat… this CAN NOT turn into a major war without my phone ringing. You can send Marines and air assault units without tanks to do raids but a major landing force like McChrystal is talking about just is not happening. Not yet. Not for months, if ever. And when it does happen I will tell you because you can’t move Army divisions in secret. Not since the Army, in a moment of idiocy, sold off its Merchant Marine preposition fleet last year.

@USA_Polling Probably worth deleting or editing this. The “lol” comes off incredibly heartless.

Another $40 million lost to the sands of the Middle East lol

@WhiteHouse Now do the girl’s school. Both times.

UNDEFEATED.

@KimZetter @evilcassieroll They’ve disrupted the ability of Stryker medical devices to transmit patient information to hospitals. Huge impact on patient care. Not as simple as “wiping employee company devices.”

@evilcassieroll They didn't wipe medical devices. They wiped company devices belonging to Stryker employees

The hackers say they targeted Stryker in retaliation for US bombing of all-girls school in Iran. They say they have wiped more that 200,000 Stryker systems, servers, and mobile devices and stole 50 terabytes of critical data, forcing Stryker offices in 79 countries to shut down

@iwasnevrhere_ “Locked down evac convoy”’ except this is exactly how they’ve transported injured personnel from JB Andrews to Bethesda/Walter Reed for years.

@liyidongg @stavvybaby Tell me you’ve never seen his videos before without telling me.

@stavvybaby Claiming the league is rigged cuz your kicker missed from the middle of the field is a choice 😂

DA NFL IS RIGGGED!!! FUK YOU STELERS!!!!

@loomdoop This was a police pursuit with the US Park Police, not ICE.

ICE is where you get a $50,000 signing bonus to to play Grand Theft Auto in real life. With total impunity.

@WarMonitor3 No it’s not. Almost exactly what happened after Soleimani and that ended it. You simply WANT this to be the beginning of a large scale conflict.

@technatsec Don’t ruin our naïve desire to know OPSEC from a pizza tracking Twitter account. Let us live in this false reality.

@RightWingCope @BrentTerhune video on this is gonna hit so hard.

maga man ruins his life after getting arrested for brandishing his rifle at anti-Trump protestors

@bridgete128 @JessicaTarlov “Catholic” in name only.

Teddy just finished her first gym class - a great success! And now to discuss the state of the race at 3pm 😘😘
