Democrats tell ppl Republicans like me don't exist. As an ex-Democrat who left the party to vote for Trump in the 2015 primaries I've felt quite at home in the @GOP as reinvented and rebuilt under the leadership of @realDonaldTrump. I'm living proof Democrats are full of shit.
PRO: free speech, school choice, right to choose, guns, capitalism, gay marriage, secure borders, legal immigration, pot legalization. AGAINST: fake news (mostly corporate), political violence (e.g. antifa), censorship, identity politics. Ex-Democrat @GOP Convert (2015)

So, Trump has cleared all public events from his schedule for the weekend and every item on his schedule is now marked CLOSED to the press, just as Israel's Mossad chief is in Washington meeting with Trump's senior officials to discuss resuming full on war with Iran.
Nothing to see here, I'm sure.

UPDATE - The FAA’s nationwide ground stop hits the one-hour mark. The first known sign of trouble came at Chicago O’Hare, where an "equipment outage" prompted a ground stop. Local passengers were told to go home, and others had to get off planes already lined up for takeoff — NYT

The NWS has confirmed radars over the United States are currently down.
America is blind.

UPDATE - The FAA confirms it ordered a nationwide ground stop for all departures “due to several impacts to ATC Frequencies and/or Radar capabilities.” The cause and duration of the outage remain unclear — The Air Current
Jack Sutter retweeted
It’s not an ATC issue, it’s a radar issue.
America is effectively blind right now.
Theoretically, any aircraft, missile, or drone could enter American airspace undetected right now.
Spooky.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is misleading. The FAA reported communications failures affecting air traffic control centers, with some radar disruptions also reported. There is no verified evidence that all U.S. radar systems are down or that aircraft can enter American airspace undetected.
