I learned from @ryandbusse book how the gun industry has merchandised a "tactical lifestyle": pretend soldering with military-style weapons and armor, but without military discipline or code of honor. Body-armored massacres are the lifestyle's price https://t.co/PIEBdjCIVZ — PolitiTweet.org

The United States is such a capable, competent society. It can do so many things nobody else can do. If it fails at something vital that almost everybody else can do, it’s not because Americans can’t. It’s because very powerful people in this society are determined: they won’t. — PolitiTweet.org

The people deriding Biden for deviating from "strategic ambiguity" on Taiwan show little awareness of why that policy was adopted in the first place - and little curiosity whether the reasons for that policy still obtain, 40+ years later https://t.co/D6WZ3CCSAT — PolitiTweet.org

David Frum @davidfrum

The coverage of Biden-Taiwan has been very weird. If a president says the same thing the same way 3x over 9 months... that's not a gaffe. If he changes policy because the reasons for the old policy have disappeared - that's not a blurt. — PolitiTweet.org
