"This is a full-court press to impose unilateral restrictions on the American nuclear program without any enforceable concessions on the part of the Russians not to mention the Chinese. Ask yourself why this is happening especially from people who claim to be anti-Moscow. If Congress doesnt act the last nuclear arms control treaty between the U.S. and Russia will expire. It would pointlessly wipe out decades of diplomacy and could spark another arms race that makes the world less safe. This piece is worth the read. https://t.co/NPtKyjYRml If Congress doesnt act the last nuclear arms control"

"Who in the world is going to throw more money at the Post & eat bigger losses than one of the richest people on the planet These folks simply don't understand the most basic realities of business which makes sense given their awful economic policy. The truth about the Washington Post: Bezos made decisions to curry favor with Trump that made a lot of Washington Post readers distrust the newspaper. It then lost a lot of subscriptions which lost money. And now he's doing layoffs. He should sell the paper to someone who will The truth about the Washington Post: Bezos made decisions to curry favor"

"How is it hard to understand the logic Your former employer is hemorrhaging money. Journalism isn't a charity. And when it comes to the Post's coverage of the Middle East good fucking riddance. You guys were basically Al Jazeera wearing a WaPo skin suit. Laid off from the Washington Post along with the entire roster of Middle East correspondents and our editors. Hard to understand the logic. But I am grateful for my incredible colleagues whose grit and dedication to the reporting and each other I will miss dearly. Laid off from the Washington Post along with the entire roster of Middle East"

"I'm sorry but why exactly is this controversial The GOP president wants a GOP senator to win reelection & is shifting policy choices to help her. How is that anything other than basic partisan politics Do these people not think that Democrats do the exact same thing Top Trump ally Brian Kilmeade says on the radio that Trump "wants Susan Collins to win" and they paused the ICE surge there to "help Susan Collins" with her re-election. They're not even pretending any more. #mesen #mepolitics https://t.co/LxdNFe5nrn Top Trump ally Brian Kilmeade says on the radio that Trump "wants Susan Collins"

"Who are all the rich people who want to spend hundreds of millions if not billions of dollars on a property that is only going to lose them money in perpetuity At least owning a sports team is fun. Owning the Washington Post seems genuinely awful.

"Good riddance. The only country limited by New START was the United States. It was an abject failure in restraining Russian aggression limiting its nuclear arsenal & stabilizing relations.
