Speaking of Gorka, he was wonderfully skewered on Twitter today by former CIA analyst Nada Bakos and other folks, in a thread that starts here:

An excellent thread explaining how this all works, courtesy of Tom Nichols, who writes frequently about nukes (and according to whom you’re correct, by the way):

Oh man, Space Flyman was my favorite hero growing up.

Pretty nasty stuff, still in use by the US because we suck

I’ve defended Sarsour to people on specific points before, but she—and the Women’s March—really lost me with that Shakur bullshit.

Nah, she knew using that word would create trouble. It would be nice to live in a world where everyone knows what it means and people don’t overreact to it, but we don’t live in such a world and she knows it.

Yep. I think she’s good on a handful of issues but imperfect to bad on a host of others. And really, really bad at choosing her language.

Odeh was a member of the PLO

I think it should be noted that Ayaan Hirsi Ali is not a Muslim. She was raised as one but has long been an atheist. 

Speaking of that creepy reptile Stephen Miller, did you see him today calling Donald Trump “the most gifted politician of our time” and “the best orator to hold that office in generations”?

Gorka also said today that there’s never been a major terrorist attack that wasn’t linked to AQ or ISIS, so, uh, apparently the Oklahoma City bombing never happened?

Them goddamn libtards shot it on the same Hollywood stage they done the so-called moon landing on. FALSE FLAGS CHEMTRAILS LIZARD ALIENS WAKE UP SHEEPLE MY PARENTS ARE SIBLINGS

Why are we alive?

Corbyn is a walking bag of dicks.

Speaking of nursing home owners, did you know that there’s a Trump-branded nursing home?

That’s every country’s kind of move.

Corbyn’s always been a goddamn idiot in love with brutal regimes. You can’t expect him to act like a decent, reasonable human being now.

Old Weller Antique 107 is so damn good.

Benchmark’s good stuff. Another great bargain is the relatively hard-to-find one, Very Old Barton 100. Cheap as dirt but really delicious.
