How could a background check not have picked up the Dayton shooter? He had a 'kill list' in high school, for one thing. https://t.co/KomBoa7qln

If you saw the pack catch frontrunner Mara Abbott in the women's road race at the 2016 Olympics — well, now you know how I see the current Dem presidential primary. It was brutal. https://t.co/qnazFQjJdf

It's an inflammatory word. I try not to use it. I once retweeted an article with "invasion" in the hed–got email from a liberal friend saying "your Twitter feed has gotten ugly." She had a point. But it's also a word commonly used hyperbolically. Trump critics are overdoing it. https://t.co/AhB0gopStf

Here's Vox/Recode using the RHETORIC OF 'INVASION' to describe Amazon's plan for NYC:
"legitimate fears about what kind of impact Amazon’s invasion would have on real-estate prices and an already faltering subway system."https://t.co/mee0rnPdyZ

Nadler's interpretation of Trump's short-lived gun-control/immigration deal proposal seems cracked. ("Trump was suggesting that 'we have to keep guns out of the hands of the invading hordes of less-than-human people coming across our borders.'”) https://t.co/RIhNftqJTy

RESULTS: The 2 tweets showed about the same traffic. Addition of the word "manifesto" didn't affect results. Also whole series of tweets now doing normal-enough business. Never mind! … But Twitter does block a *link* to the manifesto. [Will now delete experimental tweets.] https://t.co/8S2E1A7w5h

I think the press should report what it knows about the bad guys in these cases and let readers decide — manifesto.

Oddly, this tweet isn't getting anywhere near the usual number of hits–by an order of magnitude. Suspect some algorithmic funny business. Will now post two tweets with only one word difference and see what happens. Please bear with me. Science! https://t.co/rUe2QbEA1y

I would link but @Twitter won't let you link to the actual manifesto (as posted on Drudge). You get message saying "This request looks like it might be automated." Not sure what I think about this … ("Democracy dies in darkness…. well, maybe just a little darkness …") https://t.co/d86wcB9Htn

El Paso shooter 'manifesto': "Actually the Hispanic community was not my target before I read …" So he had another target earlier–i.e. he was ready to shoot up something, just had to settle on what?

DOG THAT DIDN'T TWEET: Unless I missed it, Trump hasn't tweeted or fumed about this (the Comey non-prosecution). Possibilities: a) He's matured b) Barr has him in control c) the tweets were always more strategic, less id, than we thought d) the night is young. https://t.co/XCzNLXpclT

Underestimates the constructive potential of @Twitter! Also, not clear Twitter has *produced* dumb behavior vs. revealing to all what people really are like–a form of truth that hasn't been flattering to the MSM, among others. https://t.co/oMBATArNMb
