Good morning.
You are waking up to the irony of a convicted felon president, who spent years avoiding his own criminal trials, capturing the president of a sovereign nation and holding him captive for criminal trials.

Just tried to search for Trump’s name in the Epstein files library on the DOJ’s website. You’ll be *shocked* to learn that there’s no mention of him whatsoever!

Dear anyone who ever voted for that guy -
Just letting you know that, if the nuclear bombs start falling and America gets wiped out, everyone who survives is going to blame you, and most of the people who don’t survive will curse people like you with their dying breath.
Anyway, good luck.

President Trump’s announcement that he has ordered the U.S. to resume nuclear testing “immediately” has drawn confusion and alarm from some experts, who argue that physical testing is outdated and would add momentum to an arms race it aims to counter.
Trump push to restart nuclear tests could take years, cost millions, experts say
The Nevada Test Site — where the U.S. last tested a nuclear explosive more than 30 years ago — now relies on computer modeling, not physical explosions.

It’s kind of wild that after seven million people were in the streets protesting, the president posted a hallucinated video of himself wearing a crown and shitting on Americans and then proceeded to start demolishing parts of the White House

Reminder this is all happening because Republicans refuse to let you have affordable health care.
Air traffic control facilities across the United States are reportedly experiencing staff shortages amid Trump’s government shutdown.
These shortages are taking place in Nashville, Chicago, Dallas, Phoenix, Washington, and more.

Charge his handlers with elder abuse. I'm not being glib. Anyone who saw Stan Lee at a convention in the last few years of his life can recognise what's happening here.
This is an absolutely extraordinary, revelatory quote. Why is the NBC affiliate in Portland the only place reporting it? www.kgw.com/article/news...
Trump seems to back off Portland military plan: 'Am I watching things on television that are different from what's happening?'
President Trump had said he will send troops to Portland to protect U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities, which he said were "under attack."
