Despite BJ’s reputation as a comic I have never seen much evidence that he has a sense of humour – until this appointment. Cynical ? Contempt ? Or just OE Philistinism ? https://t.co/qYyWX76wtT

The only reason the government is having a reshuffle is to hide the fact the Tories are pushing through a £20 a week cut in universal credit and there’s a vote today at 430.

Senior Defense Official confirms to me @axios reporting on Esper's role in China calls.

"Milley was absolutely not going rogue. Esper took the initiative on this in October, Esper asked his own policy folks to backchannel the message. Milley’s message followed Esper’s."
Defense One: “Gen. Milley did not go outside the chain of command when the Joint Chiefs chairman reached out to Chinese leaders to reassure them the U.S. would not attack China in the unsteady weeks before and after the 2020 election,” Pentagon confirmed.https://t.co/O0oZNCYqts
