Wow.
For those of you wondering, should I give CUI documents to reporters? The answer is of course because CUI is even presented at public conferences, for example. It is, again, not secret or classified. CUI is waaaaay overused.

I know we all gloss over it but it is genuinely darkly hilarious that someone named a missile "attack-'ems."

@AaronMehta F-14. My son used to give me a new toy every week or so. He's older now, doesn't do it anymore and...I kinda miss it
Fascinating example of Aaron's Denial of A2AD/ADA2 Acronyms here (AD2A, as I call it)
"All-domain, attritable autonomous (ADA2) systems" No. I refuse. The Pentagon cannot have both an A2AD and ADA2 acronym. This will not stand.
@AaronMehta @ValerieInsinna I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of defense corp flacks suddenly cried out OH FE**ITY FE** SHE'S BACK and were suddenly silenced.
I'm so thrilled that 2023 is the year the New York Times, Washington Post, and AP have started writing about China's United Front work in diaspora Chinese communities. It was lonely out here for a while!
@AaronMehta Like open windows above the third storey in Moscow, I should think he would be careful about a lone cup of coffee.
@AaronMehta To be clear: At #VilniusSummit, allies agreed #Ukraine will not have to complete a NATO Membership Action Plan (MAP). But they decided to not offer invitation to join #NATO. MAP usually happens before an invitation. After invitation, still a lot more process before membership.

@AaronMehta ...in which JADC2 stands for "Just a Damn Coffee with Cream."
@AaronMehta @alexbward It’s going to be thrilling like the World Series meets the Super Bowl but instead of a Rihanna halftime show there’s a 27 page communique “underscoring the steadfast resolve of the transatlantic community in upholding the strategic importance of the liberal international order”
@andykravetz @AaronMehta @GarethJennings3 @ToddHarrisonDC Ah, didn't know it was a personal vendetta. Carry on.
Aaron is one of the best people I've ever met, bar none. And the fact that he responds to one of the most harrowing and sad situations a person can go through with a heart full of gratitude for others? Well, knowing Aaron well, I'm not surprised. But I do marvel at it.
My mom died, just about this time two weeks ago. I won’t get into the 4-year health nightmare; what finally killed her doesn’t matter. Let’s just agree cancer sucks, and that I’m heartbroken, and that I miss her. And that I want to use this to talk about something good.
