“They had taught us to kill and had told us to kill, and now they were going to court-martial us for killing,” he wrote in “Rumor of War,” a searing account of America’s greatest military folly.

Philip Caputo wrote a best-selling classic about Vietnam, shared a Pulitzer for uncovering Chicago’s voting fraud, was captured by militants in Lebanon & shot by others, covered wars in Afghanistan to Africa, hunted big game & caught bigger fish

RIP dad

Best line of the year " UConn hanging around against Michigan" -- that's the truth.

I thought Boston Logan's Ride App pickup process was bad until I arrived at LAX. A poorly scheduled shuttle to get to your ride share? Twenty minute wait for the shuttle thus far.... Make some room in the garage. Clear a lane. Anything but this! #epicfail #lyft #lax #uber

This #afv reboot as #AFP is painful. If this is America's funniest, God help us.

Wait. I'm supposed to listen to Pete Davidson about my wireless phone network? Lol.

@hotelbusiness Should make an already strong asset even better. Can't wait to see it.

@jtackeff Did you pick up that fancy wit from your friend Brennan? 🤣

Good riddance to members of a heavy handed, inefficient organization that seeks to terrorize the very people it is sworn to serve. Cut, cut, cut.

@StephenKing But.... Did you miss us?

@gregmcantwell @TheRickWilson We've got to end the weaponization of the FBI. FOIA requests show that Biden's FBI’s Election Crimes Coordinator was actively working with a hyper-political group to influence election administration. How is that any better? As a lifelong dem, I'm up for Kash #ConfirmKash

His name apparently doesn't mean intelligent warrior...

The shooter reportedly opened fire on the victims' vehicle 17 times, according to an arrest report seen by NBC News. https://t.co/3xBY9urqkI

Like previous mishaps in the past month, there will be an investigation as to what happened. So relieved that there were no deaths here. The Canadian first responders at the airport in Toronto were on scene immediately.

[Beej Das @beejdas]

@Martina @too_right_m8 True. But water pressure and availability apparently was an issue. The more tools they have, the better a response we can have to fires.

[Beej Das @beejdas]

@BobinacIva84155 That's awful.

[Beej Das @beejdas]

Truly foul. These complaints offend the basic implied trust between an airline and its passengers.
