YOU CANNOT MAKE THIS UP – AT 10:44 A.M. ET:  There are some stories you read twice to be sure you actually got them right.   From Dailywire: 

Say what you want about President Trump, but at least he knows his Twitter password.

Hawaii Gov. David Ige, a Democrat, now says he couldn't inform state residents that a warning of an imminent missile attack was a false alarm because he forgot his Twitter password. The frightening admission comes 10 days after Hawaiians were throw into a panic for nearly 40 minutes over the warning.

An employee accidentally triggered the missile defense warning on January 13 by pushing the wrong button -- twice. He sent a message to all mobile phones warning them of an imminent ballistic missile attack. Some residents placed their children in sewer drains in an effort to survive the blast.

"The Hawaii Emergency Management Agency issued the false alarm at 8:07 a.m., and Ige was told the missile alert was a false alarm two minutes after the alert was sent to cell phones across the state," the Honolulu Star Advertiser reported. "However, Ige’s office did not get out a cancellation message until 17 minutes after the alert."

Ige was asked about that delay when he met with reporters after his State of the State address today, and he said that “I was in the process of making calls to the leadership team both in Hawaii Emergency Management as well as others.”

Ige added that “I have to confess that I don’t know my Twitter account log-ons and the passwords, so certainly that’s one of the changes that I’ve made. I’ve been putting that on my phone so that we can access the social media directly.”

COMMENT:  A man like this is in charge of a state, with critical emergency services under his command.  But are there calls for his resignation?  Of course not.
