In the lead-up to the Iraq War, former two-time national-security adviser Brent Scowcroft warned of the nightmare scenarios.
He was vindicated on every point.
Now the US is poised to topple another Mideast regime with even less planning or forethought. https://t.co/nrhELdVKLe
If you feel no sympathy for innocent Israelis murdered or kidnapped by Hamas terrorists last weekend, you have no humanity.
If you feel no sympathy for innocent Palestinians killed in Israel's revenge attacks on Gaza, you have no humanity.
Be human.
@NYCMayor@c40cities@NYCMayor & @DOEChancellor there has to be better communication within @NYCSchools. The decision to go remote today cost @nycpsal track & field student athletes a once in a lifetime opportunity to compete in states. Why?
I am appalled at this story on how @DrMJoyner has been treated at @MayoClinic. Dr. Joyner is one of the heroes of our time in the way he contributed to the COVID-19 response. Please write to the @MayoClinic that this is not acceptable.

I'm an atheist. I don't attend churches outside christenings, weddings or funerals. Though, I appreciate that for many of my fellow humans, church services are important, much more so than shopping in hardware stores, and I feel it is wrong to make fun of it. Live and let live...
Brooklyn Technical High School was >50% Black & Hispanic for 20 straight years. Why? Gifted & accelerated programs were common in every district. Anti-merit & anti-acceleration education extremists took over & closed them down. Result: low % of Black & Hispanic students at Tech.
Hey, @nike! My wife is a physician and dietitian, has four kids, is a track coach, and runs a busy household while maintaining great exercise and eating habits.
How about giving her an endorsement deal, instead of a skinny dude in lipstick?
“I laid on top of this man and I was yelling with my whole heart, stop!”
In 1996, Keshia Thomas protected a man wearing a Confederate flag t-shirt from a counter-protest that turned violent.
Her amazing story reminds us that only free speech can change hearts and minds.
What a horrible way to begin a weekend. @SpiritAirlines is the absolute worst airline, grounding us for a hour, with a delayed pilot. Then, combined with the worst airport ever: @EWRairport , who apparently lost "paperwork" for take off schedules. Two hour delay, not even in air
A new op-ed on masks in the @nytimes written by @zeynep, a computer programmer and sociologist, appeared earlier today.
In this thread, I examine and dissect, piece by piece, this op-ed, which is not good.

It is important to expose the “book ban” hoax about Florida schools.
Florida empowers parents by ensuring curriculum transparency and will continue to ensure that our tax dollars are spent on education, not indoctrination.
This video is going viral on WeChat. Fish Village, a restaurant in College Point, Qns was ransacked by a gang of masked kids in hoodies.
We’ve fallen so low that there’s no expectation of consequences for this horrific attack on private property.
