Careful there, Major.

SOMEONE meant for that to be a DM.

— RBe (@RBPundit) February 11, 2013

Sounds about right. Garrett has already deleted the tweet. Unfortunately for him — and fortunately for everyone else — Twitchy is forever.

<- dying to know who @MajorCBS was DM'ing.

— RBe (@RBPundit) February 11, 2013

Inquiring minds wanna know.

@MajorCBS this made me want to apologize, and I have no idea what might be going on.

@MajorCBS you have been hacked…or you are about to be fired.

Update:

Here’s Major’s explanation for the … outburst:

Monday before SOTU is always slow. Pity. I was speaking to @JOSreports. He knows why. I hear S#%* is REALLY hitting the fan in Damascus.

— Major Garrett (@MajorCBS) February 11, 2013

For the record, here’s what National Journal White House Correspondent Jim O’Sullivan was up to on this slow Monday:

Someone, @MajorCBS, left a thing of Cover Girl on the WH press men's room sink

— Jim O'Sullivan (@JOSreports) February 11, 2013

Confirmed: makeup contraband in WH men's room does NOT belong to @MajorCBS. Will investigate further

— Jim O'Sullivan (@JOSreports) February 11, 2013

Alrighty then.
