Trump puts kids in cages because he wants his wall. How low can he go? The authoritarian shitshow continues ...

What we learned from the NY AG’s probe of @realdonaldtrump’s charity: 4 times, Trump signed a tax return “under penalties of perjury” – but the return was wrong.

He's at it again:

The Red Hen Restaurant should focus more on cleaning its filthy canopies, doors and windows (badly needs a paint job) rather than refusing to serve a fine person like Sarah Huckabee Sanders. I always had a rule, if a restaurant is dirty on the outside, it is dirty on the inside!

Seems Mar Lago has been cited for a few health violations.

Threats.

I am in two minds about the Sanders thing and also think it is counterproductive.

Sanders should also consider any restaurant that chooses to serve her because all kinds of food mishaps can occur.

The fact that we are even contemplating that these children of asylum-seekers were deliberately taken from their families by the Trump administration in order to supply a demand for adoptive children in businesses run by people close to Trump and his minions is horrendous, beyond belief. It should be unthinkable, but it's not.

'Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and FBI Director Chris Wray to testify before House Judiciary Committee on Thursday afternoon on the findings of the Justice Department inspector general report.'

Wow... something I said prompted my cousin (immigration lawyer) to get involved with helping reunite kids with their separated parents. He's a bit of a loose cannon so I didn't know if he'd take the suggestion badly, but also obsessive so if he's on job he'll do it very well. Am well pleased. :)

Well done lljkk.

King Abdullah II just now praised Trump's “humility” and “grace.”

Trump, turning to reporters, replied: "Remember, he used the word humility with respect to me, so I am very happy with that word. Probably the nicest compliment I've been given in a long time."

The first tweet here is also the first I’ve agreed with (the televising part - not the infantile slandering part). With every WITCH HUNT! tweet he sounds ever more guilty. Did no one teach him about ‘dignified silence’?

The hearing of Peter Strzok and the other hating frauds at the FBI & DOJ should be shown to the public on live television, not a closed door hearing that nobody will see. We should expose these people for what they are - there should be total transparency!

Why is Senator Mark Warner (D-VA), perhaps in a near drunken state, claiming he has information that only he and Bob Mueller, the leader of the 13 Angry Democrats on a Witch Hunt, knows? Isn’t this highly illegal. Is it being investigated?

edition.cnn.com/2018/06/25/politics/concord-management-robert-mueller/index.html

'A Russian company accused of bankrolling a vast online campaign to influence the 2016 US election joined the attacks against special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation on Monday.'

Meanwhile in North Korea: June 25 - in NK the ‘Day of Struggle Against U.S. Imperialism’ - is the beginning of of month of patriotic events marking the start of the Korean War. Of course, it usually it kicks off with with a massive rally - but apparently not this year. If everything has been called off, this would be a notable concession.

This doesn’t sound like ‘due process’ to me, but then, I don’t live in Trumpland.
