For years I’ve noted that that the US is better suited to campaigning than for governing. Here’s a perfect example: the last election was 8 months ago, the midterms are not for another 16 months, but @GavinNewsom is campaigning for the 2028 Democratic nomination in South Carolina.

I might well be baking in the sun on Cape Cod but I’d much rather be in #Cardiff for the #OASISLIVE2025 gig

Biden claims he's 'getting calls' from European leaders wanting him to 'get engaged' in the Trump era? He was barely engaged in the #Biden era! .

Perhaps I’ve missed it, but this would be an ideal opportunity for the White House and the Republicans to declare that they want to Lead while the Democrats want to Read…. .

This forms the central thesis of my forthcoming book explaining Trump, the Madman Theory, and strategic ambiguity.

Apparently the Democratic leadership suddenly believe in reading legislation BEFORE they pass it. This is quite the turnaround. Whatever changed their stance?.

I’ve written 2 books on @BillClinton & did a PhD on his policies but I no longer recognize him. He built his entire career refuting the politics of the old left and now he’s openly endorsing a self proclaimed socialist.

Congratulations @ZohranKMamdani on your victory in yesterday’s primary election and a well-run campaign. I’m wishing you much success in November and beyond as you work to bring New Yorkers together to tackle the city’s challenges and shape a stronger, fairer future.

Despairing at the news that we have lost @zacharyjacobson In a world where far too few people are supportive and kind, he was both. He wrote beautifully, cared deeply, fought courageously, and will be sorely missed by all of us lucky enough to have known him.

Any national leader using the word ‘deescalate’ this evening is irrelevant.

The very worst thing about landing back at Logan Airport is hearing @maura_healey and @MayorWu patronising you on the skywalk as you try to find an uber to dodge all the in-necessary bike lanes back to the city.

A remarkable, coordinate strike this evening by the United States, using submarine-launched cruise missiles, and B2 launched bunker-buster missiles against three Iranian nuclear sites.

Will military strikes be followed up by moves for regime change in Iran, or will regime change naturally occur as a result of military strikes and the destruction of Iran’s nuclear facilities?.

Looks like the president has taken his opportunity to strike.

The US is facing a generational opportunity to redraw the map in the Middle East, remove an existential threat, and restore moderate leadership in Iran. What happens in the coming days promises to define the decades to come.

The airborne refueling aircraft have already been deployed. Keep an eye out for the B2 Stealth aircraft. If they deploy it will be with one intent: to launch the bunker-busters against the remaining nuclear facility at #Fordow.
