The slog of this authoritarian shitshow is grinding us all down. My inspiration has gone into hiding with Melania. Knock yourselves out! (Trump cont.)

This is from March this year, but I think I missed it.

Anyway, to no one's surprise, the Russian troll farm Internet Research Agency was also on reddit.

Yikes. I asked @FLOTUS spokeswoman @StephGrisham45 about Giuliani saying that she believes her husband re Stormy Daniels. Response: “I don't believe Mrs. Trump has ever discussed her thoughts on anything with Mr. Giuliani.”

Correct link. No idea where Danny reappeared from ( pushy divo).

Every week is a big week but we know in advance that next week is especially big

12 June: Singapore summit
14 June: I G report published
15 June: Manafort and Cohen are both in court.

And that's before the daily shocks.

"I am increasingly admiring of Donald Trump. I have become more and more convinced that there is method in his madness. Imagine Trump doing Brexit,” Johnson said. “He’d go in bloody hard… There’d be all sorts of breakdowns, all sorts of chaos. Everyone would think he’d gone mad. But actually you might get somewhere. It’s a very, very good thought.”

Not sure I can deal with Boris and Don at the same time or in the same sentence.

Don't know much about this woman.

Well, there is method in 45's madness. As long as you're a dictator with no interest in democracy or in the well-being of the country or in any thing other than getting your own way, it's a perfectly rational way to proceed.

If you're anyone who isn't the dictator or a disaster opportunist with the power to make hay during the chaos, then it's pretty shite.

Emmanuel Macron
@EmmanuelMacron
The American President may not mind being isolated, but neither do we mind signing a 6 country agreement if need be. Because these 6 countries represent values, they represent an economic market which has the weight of history behind it and which is now a true international force

That Buzzfeed article, perfect example of Boris being Boris; discreet, measured, carefully diplomatic, a thoroughly safe pair of hands.

lion. A taster of Pirro. She would fit right into the Supreme Court.

BJ and DJT were always 2 sides of same coin. I'm not sure I can cope with both of them either.

Oh, and so reassuring:

'You’ve got to face the fact there may now be a meltdown. OK? I don’t want anybody to panic during the meltdown. No panic. Pro bono publico, no bloody panic. It’s going to be all right in the end.” '

Thanks Gum.

Trump has a go at Macron and Trudeau, because why the hell not? He’s pissed everyone else off. THESE ARE ALLIES, BONEHEAD. (Apologies for my language.)

Prime Minister Trudeau is being so indignant, bringing up the relationship that the U.S. and Canada had over the many years and all sorts of other things...but he doesn’t bring up the fact that they charge us up to 300% on dairy — hurting our Farmers, killing our Agriculture!

"Senator Merkley (D-OR) was finally provided a tour of the facility here in town that houses once accompanied children who have been seperated from their parents or guardian by ICE."

#UN Is going to file an action against US in court. It's illegal to house people under these conditions & forcibly separate them from their children. The legal contortions of interpretation of Law the #DOJ is claiming is complete bullshit
It Violates #InternationalHumanRightsLaw

And Trump has the nerve to blame the Democrats for this... he has to own this. I think/hope this will blow up in his face.
