Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?

Why am I not surprised? 95% cloud cover at sunrise Saturday morning. Little to no chance of seeing the partial solar eclipse. Murphy’s Law of Astronomy: as desirability of observation increases, the success of said observation probability approaches zero.

Right… how silly we should think specifics on military ops (in real time) and names of agents would be classified information.
