Yeah, I’m on Twitter. These days I find it one of the best ways to express myself and be in touch with fellow journalists, intelligence experts and activists. So I’m going to start posting some of my comments, with additional explanation when necessary. Amazing how much you can actually say in 140 characters.
Here’s my thoughts from Friday, 6/12:
- We all owe a debt of gratitude to @joanwalsh (editor of Salon) for standing up to that vile, woman-hating bully of a man, Bill O’Reilly.
- I love how right-wingers and neocons support labor rights abroad but spit on unions at home. FU AEI!
- First there was the Great Leader. Then there was the Dear Leader. Now there is the Brilliant Comrade.
- Fox: CIA learned “through sources inside North Korea” that NK about to test another bomb. If those sources existed, it would be unprecedented.
- Hilarious: AT&T’s new privacy policy. “We’re listening,” the company says. Really? I’m laughing so hard it hurts.
- House committee adds $300 million+ to Special Operations Command budget. SAIC, Booz Allen & other contractors will love this.
- Politico reports but misses key points as Rep. Harman fights DHS over domestic use of spy satellites. This goes back to Bush.
- New voice on intelligence: check out first “CIA Examiner” column by Steve Lee, former CIA officer and HuffPost blogger.
