Predictably, #Christchurch is giving oxygen to militant #jihad. Seeing a lot of this on wires
-Muslims now have no option but jihad
-Int’l law & human rights are nonsense & serve only #Islam's foes
-No different from acts of western soldiers in Middle East or brutal Arab regimes

One of the best things so far this year: Apple Music just added the top 100 most-played songs from over 100 countries. Wanna know what made the charts in Azerbaijan? Go take a look.

This story is incredible: meet the team in Syria who hacked together a tool like Shazam for air raids. It listens to the plans and warns where the bombs will hit next. https://t.co/NCQ6PGMWmq

اكثر من ٣٠٠ صحيفة أمريكية تنشر إفتتاحيات تشرح ل #ترامب ان الاعلام ليس عدو الشعب كما يقول وأن مهمتهم هي البحث عن الحقيقة ونشرها https://t.co/7xNZqf6FRg

الهان عمر الامريكية من أصل صومالي فازت كمرشحة عن الحزب الديمقراطي لخوض الانتخابات في شهر نوڤمبر في ولاية مينيسوتا. اذا فازت، ستكون ثاني مسلمة تدخل الكونجرس بعد رشيدة طليب.

1. Twenty years ago today, al-Qaeda bombed the U.S embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, killing scores of people and inaugurating the era of global terror, where jihadists sought to kill Westerners and anyone allied with them at all four corners of the world.

America is the world's largest weapons exporter. I was curious to see what this looks like over time, so I mapped the flows of arms transfers leaving the U.S. from 1950 to 2017. The data comes from @SIPRIorg 's Arms Transfers Database. Full video here: https://t.co/5h1I6B2Xlp

Weirdest float at #SDPride: Northrop Grumman with a blow-up drone atop a cloud of rainbow balloons. Yay drone strikes?

[Michael Seche @michaelseche]

Funniest float so far at #SDPride: “Fu*k Donald Trump” with matching soundtrack and t-shirts.

Rosenstein’s remarks at today’s briefing were a beautiful defense of DoJ/FBI/Strzok’s impartiality—and the not-so-subtle jab at Gowdy et al. was beautiful, too.

Public opinion of U.S. leadership has plummeted around the world since Trump's election, with Russia and Israel two of the only exceptions. https://t.co/SiuSAHkkLG

Forever?!! Mr. McConnell, the average length of special counsel investigations, dating back to Watergate, is 904 days.

For example:

Whitewater, that eventually morphed into the Lewinsky scandal: 2,978 days.

Iran-Contra: 2,420 days.

Mueller’s probe: 394 days

I spoke with Prime Minister of #Pakistan Nasirul Mulk and Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Javed Bajwa and confirmed the death of Mullah Fazlullah. His death is the result of tireless human intel led by #Afghan security agencies.
