An honor to speak at @TempleUniv today to talk to college students, support the Lew Klein Scholarships for journalism students, see old friends like @SteveCapus, and meet some amazing alumni like the great @jkbjournalist! #GoOwls #GoEagles
I cannot stress enough how wonderful it was to meet @jkbjournalist. Were it not for her, Epstein would still be committing unimaginable crimes against children.

1/ TEXT MESSAGES show a WH and administration determined to push Ukraine to investigate the 2016 election and undermine the Mueller report, and to investigate the Bidens. It becomes a key point of negotiation as Ukrainian President Zelensky seeks a WH meeting and military aid:
2/July 25, 2019, 8:36 am US Special Rep Kurt Volker for Ukraine to Zelensky aide Andrey Yermak:

"Heard from White House -- assuming President Z convinces trump he will investigate/'get to the bottom of what happened' in 2016, we will nail down date for visit to Washington."
3/ Then comes much coordination between Volker, Yermak, US Ambassador to EU Gordon Sundland, and Rudy Giuliani about a statement the Trump Team wants Zelensky to make.

Breaking — A source familiar with the investigation prompted by the whistleblower tells me that the “indicia of bias of an arguable political bias on the part“ of the whistleblower referred to by the Intel Community IG, is that the whistleblower is a Registered Democrat.
2/ The attorney for the whistleblower declined to comment.

The IG said "such evidence did not change my determination that the complaint relating to the urgent concern 'appears credible' particularly given the other information the ICIG obtained during its preliminary review."
3/ An expert on whistleblowers tells me he suspects the IG included the “possible bias” language, before dismissing it, as “a CYA measure” since being of the other party (a party the president once belonged to) is not disqualifying in any way.

1/ Ten years ago today: the Battle of Combat Outpost Keating.

COP Keating was at the bottom of three steep mountains just 14 miles from the Pakistan border.

This terrain overview gives you an idea of how vulnerable it was:

2/ COP Keating had been built in 2006 to work with the local populace, to convince them to reject the Taliban.

Here’s some early footage of the COP:

3/ There were constant firefights.

On the recent revelations of more creeps in the cybersecurity community, and “cancellation”, a thread. (TL;DR: cancel away, and let’s do more).
Over the past few days we have seen several people in the security industry called out for sexually harassing women at security conferences. They travel on their company dime and act somewhere between deeply inappropriate and committing sexual assault.
The community’s immediate laudable response has been to name, shame, and push to remove them from the industry. This practice has become known as “cancellation”.

More #journalism: "11-year-old arrested after refusing to stand for Pledge of Allegiance" - But the ⁦@nypost⁩ headline contradicts the account of the superintendent nypost.com/2019/02/17/11-…
The fact that anything short of a violent crime should bring police into school is a disaster.

But so is the phony and ungrateful "dissent" expressed by the kid in this story - which his *immigrant* teacher called him out on. Yet the LW-lurching @nypost makes *her* the heavy
The leftward editorial shift at the @nypost is palpable lately. You'd think it would note the failure of the @NYDailyNews at replacing the Daily Worker. money.cnn.com/2018/07/23/med…

But the Post still seems to be betting on selling papers to the people who sent @AOC to Congress

I don't have a course to give a pep talk to any more, so if you're starting any #Journalism undergrad course in the morning, here are my top tips.
1) Today is the first day of your professional life as a journalist. Keep your eye on the exit. Three years will pass very quickly, if you wait until finals to think about your first job you've missed the opportunity.
2) Noone in the real world cares about your marks, so long as you pass everything. It's nice to get a First, and with the right attitude it's more than possible, but given the choice between brilliant grades and work experience, take the placement. Every. Time.
