@NavalInstitute my understanding is that they flew routine patrols in the area for a few weeks to disguise that they busted the Jap code. "serendipitous"

#OTD 1943, U.S. Naval Intelligence decrypted a message that revealed the travel schedule for ADM Isoroku Yamamoto, commander-in-chief of the Combined Fleet. Four days later, P-38s flew 600 miles and shot down the plane carrying the man who had planned the attack on Pearl Harbor.

@AFP WHISKEY! TANGO! FOXTROT! what background is he expecting to blend into?

#UPDATE French President Emmanuel Macron said on Monday the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics could move from the river Seine to the national stadium in the event of a security threat. Macron said in an interview that instead of teams sailing down the Seine on barges, the ceremony could be "limited to the Trocadero" building in front of the Eiffel Tower or "even moved to the Stade de France"

#BREAKING Macron says Olympic opening ceremony could move to Stade de France if security threat

This should go without saying to anyone with an IQ higher than a kumquat’s: Only a pathological liar would say such a thing.

@RpsAgainstTrump if you include the decimal number.

Fox News host Jesse Watters: “If you're making $20 an hour to work at a fast-food restaurant ... Is that six figures?"🤦‍♂️

@BarakRavid i wonder how much drone flight data was gotten from Ukraine.

IDF spokesman Rear Admiral Hagari: More than 200 drones, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles were fired from Iran. Most of the threats were intercepted outside Israeli airspace. A very small number of missiles hit Israeli territory with minor damages to a military base in southern Israel

@mlevenson "One officer in particular, she said, fired at least 50 times," whiskey! tango! foxtrot! that's three (3) clips.

Chicago police officers killed a 26-year-old man during a traffic stop last month, firing an estimated 96 shots after he fired first and wounded an officer, according to the city’s Civilian Office of Police Accountability. nytimes.com/2024/04/12/us/…

@katienotopoulos what's a 'carb'? my guess is that it's been 30 years since a car had a carburetor.

*blinks* *squints* *blinks* I’m sorry, what now?

@US_Stormwatch now do the groundwater teat they have been nursing the last few years.

California will be going into summer drought free for the second straight year! The state's drought severity index is at its lowest level in 13 years, with only 2.6% of CA experiencing abnormally dry conditions, the lowest since 2011. #CAwx

@MSNBC before or after he publish his taxes?

@jayblackisfunny can't wait for TFG to wash some feet. "not in a Tarantino way."

Right, the guy who famously said “turn the other cheek” was well-known for His alpha-bro posturing.

Love logging into Twitter where I am insulted on the daily for being Chinese, Jewish, not-Jewish, white, trans, cis, rich, a career failure, right wing and left wing all at once. Whatever you need to hate in any given moment, I’m your gal.

@BidenHQ surrounded by his loving family.

Trump posts desperate video begging for cash in someone’s backyard (?) after Team Biden-Harris hosted the most successful political fundraiser in American history last night

@newrepublic FWIW, Trump alone got 87M followers, 175x more, on Twitter.

Looking at the fundamentals, Truth Social’s monthly active users fell 51 percent in February compared to the previous year, down to a very modest 494,000. Facebook, Twitter, and even Threads all have monthly active users in excess of 100 million. trib.al/JUaU6WQ

@jayblackisfunny how many Melania pre-nups are we talking about?

President Biden raised $25 million tonight, the biggest fundraising night in history. To put that in perspective, Trump would have to sell 416,737 of his weird, sticky Lee Greenwood bibles to gross that amount of money. …the rout this November is gonna curl Trump’s tiny toes.

@Kasparov63 ...Trump winning the popular vote.

Like Putin saying he brought back law and order.

@SethAbramson does the twitter mom knows what he's doing?
