It is always "exceptional". Even just the term "excellent health" would have been an insult. It needs to stand out beyond all possible expectations.

Ah, but who would want such a withered, dead organ back?

No idea. The complete lack of any further information is one of the really frightening parts. I live in Australia, and almost none of this makes news here.

Federal agents aren’t trying to keep the peace. They want violence to escalate so that Trump can declare martial law.

They shot a reverend in the head with pepper balls while he was praying in front of an ICE facility. If that doesn’t tell you where we are as a country, nothing will.

And the Nobel Peace Prize doesn't go to (drum roll please).....

Donald Trump had 'no chance' of winning Nobel Peace Prize

Donald Trump has not been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, and, despite his persistent claim that he "deserves the prize", experts are not at all surprised he didn't win.

You know, I was a pretty devout believer in the potential of an Australian republic, but after watching the absolute fucking shit show that is now the US, I am so bloody glad that little Johnny diddled us in the 90's by only offering a republic even republicans didn't want.

I'm tired of people "liking" my #Epstein and #Trump posts.

The point, folks, is to "repost" them.

Spread the word about these two disgusting #pedophiles and #rapists
