In a short interview with @CBSThisMorning
(Developed countries aren’t god gifted nor the result of magic. The people of the country worked hard to build their country, & make it well developed. So we also need to stand our ground, & it’s the only reason of my presence here.)

When Vice Admiral Lisa Franchetti joined the @USNavy, women weren’t allowed on combat ships. Now, she commands her own fleet monitoring threats from the Middle East and Russia.

@charliecbs sat down with Franchetti, the Navy's only female fleet commander. #WomensHistoryMonth

Despite the Royal Family being “fully supportive” of Harry and Meghan’s decision to step down as senior royals, The Queen’s sadness and disappointment is tangible in this statement. She wanted them to remain a “full-time” part of the family but they are off “to create a new life”

.@CBSSunday's @RealJanePauley reveals she doesn't like the word stigma.

“As a communicator, words have power and the word stigma is it’s own stigma… Every time you use the word stigma, it’s a reminder for people like me that I’m fighting two wars."

This morning, Iran's foreign minister says any attack on his country would lead to "all out war." President Trump says he's in no hurry to do what he calls "dastardly things," in response to a missile and drone strike, blamed on Iran, that damaged Saudi Arabian oil facilities.

As a journalist on the same plane, it’s disappointing to see how “fake news” in manufactured. The flight was smooth without a moment of fear or drama. There was no “near miss” or “nerves” as the pilot performed a standard manuever used when other planes don’t fully clear runway.
