Oh, D'Souza eventually admitted he was wrong about "Senator William Murray."

And yet the made-up Dixiecrat senator is *still* in that piece, nearly three months later. Screen shot on the right, from just now. amgreatness.com/2018/07/29/the…

It's like the end of "Mary Poppins" when she realizes the Banks no longer need her and can take care of themselves. I'm getting a little choked up.
Oof.
(Nixon voice) Good God.

Notre Dame is struggling so much the coaches are just calling up random Catholics to sub in now.

Anyway, watch for me to suit up as an outside linebacker in the fourth quarter.
All right, all right, be patient. I'm almost in.

Coach says we're going to turn this around.
Apologies for my cursing that was just picked up by the network microphones.

Things are getting a little heated out here.

When the #NSA discovered that #Iran may have been buying computer chips from the #UnitedStates routing them through a U.S. ally
&
Potentially supplying them to detonate #bombs against U.S. forces in Iraq & #Afghanistan
It credited so-called economic intelligence with the find.
The solution wasn't a death blow delivered by the #military but rather a new regulation on the export of certain #technologies via the #CommerceDepartment which the #NSA said would end up “saving #American & coalition lives.”

Back due to popular demand, a long-form THREAD on the story of aircraft carriers and the Indian Navy.
The Indian Navy's carrier story reaches back to before the creation of the modern Indian Navy, into the period immediately after partition. While the Raj was dissolved in 1947 it took almost a decade for the British-led Royal Indian Navy to transition into an Indian-led service.
From independence until 1958 the post of Commander in Chief of the Royal Indian Navy &, after 1950, the Chief of the Naval Staff of the Indian Navy was held by a series of British officers:

R.Adm John Talbot Hall
V.Adm William Parry
Adm Charles Pizzey
V.Adm Stephen Hope Carlill

"In late 2016, as Trump was readying to move into the WH, Elliott Broidy...was working on a deal to gain control of what a biz partner called “billions...in oil & gas, and mining assets” in ANGOLA." h/t @Klickedy

motherjones.com/politics/2018/…
"Broidy used his clout to hook up top Angolan gov't ofcls w/members of the US Congress & the Trump admin. It was a swampy endeavor involving old-fashioned political influence, a BH activist/realtor, & a Nigerian American businessman who had been a close friend of Michael Jackson"
"Broidy is no longer a power player wielding sway in the Republican cosmos. Early this yr, he faced a series of media stories that raised questions about his biz dealings (which includ'd ventures w/the gov'ts of SA, the UAE, Romania, & Repub of Congo) & allegd influence peddling"

Taehyung was trying to find his way out of a crowd when he realized his favorite bakery would be closing in 15 minutes. "Excuse me" and "pardon me" were repeated every second.

Taehyung had moved back into Seoul just two weeks before and was getting used to the place again.
