Why did Trump just tweet "Something very big has just happened!"?
Kind of disturbing actually...

go poopy?
Titillating!
Bowel movement?
Think former FBI counsel James Baker has copped a plea.
It's bound to happen sooner or later.
Umm... That's What She Said.
DOJ just sent out arrest warrants for Comey, Clapper, Hillary, and crew!
Maybe he had a bowel movement.
Stay tuned!
Oh the comedy is endless..................../s
I think I heard James Baker flipped and is now cooperating with the Barr investigation.
Trump exaggerates. He's full of salesman puffery. "very Big" = yeah, it might be important. If he was to tweet "This is the most important thing in the history of the world", then, that would be "Very Big".
Remember: Trump millions = everyone else's thousands. Part of his charm.
My stars and garters, she exclaimed!
He tweeted it to call attention to some upcoming announcement, either good foreign policy news, or bad news for the deep state.
I bet China signed.
Scaring me that's for sure.
Everyone:
To be clear, the next POTUS will be Liz Warren. There really is no another scenario for anyone to be POTUS. As a top political advisor, I say this will 100% confidence.
The next VPOTUS could be one of these: Castro, Klobuchar, Booker, or one of governors who quit (from CO, WA, or MT).
Trump will go down in all 50 states. His defeat will save him from impeachment.
Cheers,
Raj
Great way to disorient the Sunday morning talkers.
Sounds like something with North Korea!
lol A "reality TV star" promoting HIS show.
Lettuce all Wild Bill speculate!!
Reports indicate a high value target has been captured or killed in Syria....Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, ISIS Commander in Chief!
Obama has been arrested?
McRib is back!
Nothing about impeachment and such. He would wait for the DOJ to make the announcement.
The Pope has converted to Catholicism.
My guess is that the Chinese have just agreed to a trade “deal” that does almost nothing to fundamentally change our relationship. China never felt any need to make much of a change in its behavior with the west now so disunited in the Trump era. And that Trump knows how important it will be for him to sell the nothing deal as something very big.
Some Ace of Spades commentators say that Twitter reports that Al-Baghdadi, head of ISIS, has been captured. That would certainly be big news. No one I follow on Twitter has mentioned it yet, but I use my real name there and follow mostly non-political tweeters.
"Tyrone Slothrop said...
The Pope has converted to Catholicism."
One can only hope. I'd settle for renouncing socialism.
Fen apologized?
The capture of al-Baghdadi a couple of weeks after all the Wild Ass speculation about losing ISIS prisoners would be a real triumph.
Over to you, Ken B!
Paul: "I think I heard James Baker flipped and is now cooperating with the Barr investigation."
Heads up: there are 2 "James Baker's".
James Baker, FBI General Counsel and Director Col. James H Baker, Office of Net Assessment in the Pentagon.
It is James H Baker who is believed to have been in contact woth "journolist" David Ignatius.
Who knows but I sure as heck bet the lights are on late at the Obama household tonight.
I guess we'll have to wait to find out.
ISIS leader killed
On being an entertainer, Trump reminds me of the lines Ed Sullivan used to say. Just a little exaggeration, no big deal.
Trump is making a statement from the WH tomorrow morning.
Word is that al-Baghdadi was killed in a Special Forces operation. White House says the President will make a major announcement Sunday AM. Reuters reports the major announcement by emphasizing impeachment and opposition to the Syria withdrawal. Thank god the media doesn’t take sides.
Mike Pence just gave Trump a new Stormy Daniels video.

Over to you, Ken B!"
Oh, it gets better than that!!
Russia, a nation with the GDP of Italy(!), is complaining that they have assumed additional duties in Syria while the US troops have redeployed to protect/defend the oil field assets!!
LOL
Russia expending more capital than their small economy can afford while losing out on oil protection revenues!!
Islamists, Russia, Assad, democrats, lefties, LLR's and Ken B hardest hit.
Cant wait to read our resident morons lecture us in why having the broke russkis spending more and more with increased risk while the US lowers its risk but increases its leverage over syrian oil fields is a bad thing!!
Insty is reporting that al-Baghdadi is either dead or has been captured after Spec Ops raid.
At Newsweek -- Trump Approves Special Ops Raid Targeting ISIS Leader Baghdadi, Military Says He's Dead:
The United States military has conducted a special operations raid targeting one of its most high-value targets, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of the Islamic State militant group (ISIS), Newsweek has learned. President Donald Trump approved the mission nearly a week before it took place.
Amid reports Saturday of U.S. military helicopters over Syria's northwestern Idlib province, a senior Pentagon official familiar with the operation and Army official briefed on the matter told Newsweek that Baghdadi was the target of the top-secret operation in the last bastion of the country's Islamist-dominated opposition, a faction that has clashed with ISIS in recent years. A U.S. Army official briefed on the results of the operation told Newsweek that Baghdadi was killed in the raid. And the Defense Department told the White House they have "high confidence" that the high-value target killed was Baghdadi, but further verification is pending.
Members of a team from the Joint Special Operations Command carried out Saturday's high-level operation after receiving actionable intelligence, according to sources familiar with the operation. The location raided by special operations troops had been under surveillance for some time.
On Saturday night, after the operation had concluded, President Trump tweeted: "Something very big has just happened!" The White House announced later that the president will make a "major statement" Sunday at 9:00 a.m.
Reports are that Baghdadi, the Caliph of ISIS, has been killed.
Late on a Saturday.
Big news at the White House.
Obviously not war news, obviously not legislative news.
We all know what happened.
Someone flipped, as a previous commenter noted.
Someone who had hatred in his or her heart for the people who voted for Trump finally figured out that such hatred was poison.
In the novels of Dostoevsky, this is a frequent plot point.
As Kanye likes to say WAKE UP
Newsweek reports that ISIS leader al-Baghdadi was killed or captured in a raid tonight.
Didn't have to wait long. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi isn't going to beheading helpless prisoners any more. Hope they shot him with hollow point rounds filled with bacon grease.
With his phone and pen he'll be mandating only full size candy bars will be handed out this Halloween.
MSM will use the "he's trying to kill children!" angle.

Sorry, can't make it a hyperlink, but Fox is saying Baghdadi was reported as killed
This is my first of two comments.
In the "old" days an important announcement would be learned and then shared with favored journalists who would then tell all of the other journolists and they would get to be all smug and righteous when they, the favored few, would break the news about this developing story. They would lie to the audience that they are learning about this just now and they are sharing what they learn, then have 3 lined up "analysts" that already know the softball questions to expect to knit the narrative.
As long as Trump is president, it appears that those days are gone. Who did he tell first? Us. Tomorrow when the press carries whatever Trump's announcement is, they will be learning about it for the first time.
I like this. It pulls the Presidency into the 21st century.
Second comment.
We can moneyball this if we want. The Tweet was from 923pm Saturday night.
I voted for Trump but even I know he can defy prediction. Nonetheless, here I go.
If I assume that Trump is too smart to upset the applecart of an ongoing investigation then the "big" thing is not about the Barr/Durham investigation nor is it about the Barr/Horowitz IG report. That leaves foreign affairs. The three big issues are Mideast peace (it's not this one), North Korea, and the Trade deal with China. (does anyone have another big foreign issue?)
The most plausible issue is an agreement with the Chinese about trade.
Anyway, that's my guess. Posted at 1204am Sunday morning.
Got Baghdadi, maybe. That's my guess.
They killed the leader of ISIS
Tomorrow morning influential Democrats will be denouncing the brutal murder of peace loving Muslims.
“Reports indicate a high value target has been captured or killed in Syria....Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, ISIS Commander in Chief”
That was my guess.
That's just Trump's version of "Breaking News".
It would be a good thing indeed Birkel.
Did all those ISIS prisoners going free contribute to his capture? Are you suggesting Bush could have caught bin Laden had he just thought of emptying Guantanamo?
Third comment. Ok, no takebacks, but the Obvious "big thing" was the kill or capture of the ISIS bad guy.
ISIS leader killed as per the Sludge Report...I shall continue my research.
Or perhaps he was tweeting about the Astros’ big inning? C’mon Nats, it’s best two out of three now, but you can do it!
Sounds like he was killed, not captured.
Trump has turned all local news on us now giving us teasers about which bridge will be closed tomorrow morning. Tune in at 11!
I am really curious Birkel why you think it is unimportant that ISIS prisoners escaped. Clearly from your comment at 9:52 you do. It is evident that your logic isn’t good — because anyone can see it would be better to have have Baghdadi dead and these terrorists in custody than Baghdadi dead and them free — but even I am a little surprised you think so little of the American lives that might be lost to these escaped killers. I think that is shameful.
I will quote your comment here before it gets memory holed

Looks like it was definitely about al-Baghdidi.
Popeye's chicken sandwich is back?!!!
Hillary is President??
Sorry, I couldn't resist!
President Donald Trump will make a “major statement” to the nation at 9 a.m. ET Sunday, the White House said.
Baker flips, Baghdadi crypts, market nips, impeachment zip.
Google informs me that it's Sylvia Plath's 87th birthday. Somebody ought to bake a cake.

75" Ultra 8k/3D/HD/Megapixel TV screens will soon be a better smartphone option ? Check out the new Samsung phone that opens out like a book into one screen ? I'm not sure, still rubbing my eyes either from post-sleep or crying.
You know, the P T Barnum aspects of this are fascinating. Come see he elephant! It’s Jumbo, the biggest elephant ever, a freak of nature. The King of the savanna!! He looks a giraffe in the eye!
Never a memory hole from me. Pay attention.
You missed the point, which was your Wild Ass speculation.
You have no idea how the intelligence was gathered to plan this assault.
Kurdish military assets were reportedly involved in locating al-Baghdadi.
Apparently we still have operational support from the Kurds.
I guess they didn't feel as abandoned as you (hoped?) alleged.
And the loss of prisoners was exaggerated, according to other reporting.
But it is pretty awesome that you have a Heads I win, Tails you lose coin in your pocket.
Now you can address the point about costs raised by Drago above.
Birkel
You basically said “sure the prisoners escaped but Trump got Baghdadi, neener neener.” Of course it’s great that Trump got Baghdadi, but it was still a bad thing that the ISIS killers escaped. By your logic, Obama screwing up Iraq is unimportant because he got bin Laden, neener neener. You let your petty partisan bile overwhelm any sense of decency and concern for innocent American lives.

You basically said
"Basically" here is carrying more water than Gunga Din. What prisoners escaped? How many? What are their names?
America's Politico *seems* to be saying that Trump will run in 2020 but win zero electoral college votes. Zero.
It sounds faintly ridiculous to me.
