He's a bit feisty, isn't he?

Brandon Wall @Walldo
Redditor HanAssholeSolo, the guy who posted the Trump/CNN clip the president tweeted, has apologized to @CNN, the media, and others

Grudge 🤦‍♂️ 🌎 @grudging1
Surely the President can hold himself to the same lofty standard as Redditor HanAssholeSolo.

Ha, it's nice that there's ways to positively protest!

This is worth a read:

An interesting piece on a setback for the EPA on rollback. (I haven't had time to fact check this.)

A neat overview of SCROTUS's upcoming European trip. According to other articles I've seen, the choice of Hamburg for the G20 summit seems to be a worry security-wise. (For all - not just Trumplestiltskin)

Trump Wants a Do-Over in Europe
But the president’s upcoming trip offers ample opportunity for fresh trouble.

Somewhat scary and very odd!

OnTheDarkSideOfTheSpoon · 05/07/2017 07:42

Very odd! I thought maybe because the door wasn't open, he might have assumed it wasn't where he was meant to go but actually upon rewatching, I think it is open so no idea what's happening there.

The politico article is very good. Will be interesting to see what develops this week.

I think hanssoloasshole missed a trick - why not go for the eminently more pun worthy "hansassholo" or even "hanssolosassholo"? I'd find it more pleasing.

Out of curiosity, what exactly are Big Govt, opprressive taxation, anti 2A left wing socialists celebrating today?

Respectfully, today all celebrate the promise of America whether for new immigrants or aging reality TV stars. America belongs to all of us.

The Trump subreddit moderators censored the apology and deleted it. Wouldn't want folks to have the wrong idea. mobile.twitter.com/kyletblaine/status/882408923533279232

How CNN found the Reddit user behind the Trump wrestling GIF

OnTheDarkSideOfTheSpoon · 05/07/2017 08:07

John Aravosis @aravosis
Replying to @aravosis
So promoting violence, racism and antisemitism was ok with the Reddit moderators. It was apologizing for it that crossed the line.

Scott Taylor @Scotttaylorva

@CNN U basically coerce apology & threaten release of identity if something changes? Pretty sure a line is crossed here. #CNNBlackmail

Patrick @TrickFreee
This is a U.S. congressman accusing @CNN of blackmail, because they accepted the apology from the meme creator instead of filing a lawsuit.

Mike Cernovich 🇺🇸 @Cernovich
How brave of CNN, a multi-billion dollar corporation, to go after a private citizen.

andrew kaczynski 🤔 @KFILE
CNN specifically choose not to reveal this guy's identity and to say we threatened anyone is a total lie.

🤔 @KFILE
FYI "HanAssholeSolo" just called me."I am in total agreement with your statement. I was not threatened in anyway."
