Good advice, and not just for physical activity. Don’t just think about what you want to say or write. Just start doing it!

General Michael Hayden is a massively talented individual of great integrity. He is a great American. It is worth noting that he has gone to bat for Canada more than once.

I’ll remember him as a colleague of great intellect and conviction, and as a man who gave everything he had to this nation. My thoughts are with the Cheney family

He was serious, disciplined, and always clear about his purpose—to keep America safe in a very dangerous time. He was a steadfast partner to the intelligence community and a leader who carried the burdens of national security with quiet resolve

I was saddened to hear of Vice President Cheney’s passing. During my time at NSA, the CIA, and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, I saw up close his steadiness and his absolute focus on protecting the country.

They are sending roving bands of masked thugs with the stated goal of kidnapping 20 million brown people to transport them to any country they can pay to take them. All this has been cleared by The Stolen Court. This is not deportation. This is ethnic cleansing.

Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio tried to give a press conference to announce his lawsuit against DOJ. Much to my surprise it turned out to be the greatest press conference of all-time.
