Head in tear stained hands - Another school shooting

At least 9 dead in Santa Fe High School; shooter had multiple guns, bombs
At least 9 people died Friday morning in gunfire at Santa Fe High School, law enforcement officials confirmed, while area hospitals reported at least a dozen others were injured.
Police arrested a student suspect and detained a second person, Santa Fe school officials confirmed.

Santa Fe High, you didn’t deserve this. You deserve peace all your lives, not just after a tombstone saying that is put over you. You deserve more than Thoughts and Prayers, and after supporting us by walking out we will be there to support you by raising up your voices.- Emma Gonzalez, Parkland shooting survivor


After I heard about the Santa Fe shooting,  I yearned to hear "Candle In The Wind" --  not the lyrics but the instrumental. These innocent children are our candles in the wind.

Women's Rights are More Regulated Than Assault Weapons. Sad.
 The Trump administration will resurrect a Reagan-era rule banning federally funded family planning clinics from referring women for abortions, or sharing space with abortion providers.

Trump calls immigrants names again

President Trump lashed out at undocumented immigrants during a White House meeting on Wednesday, warning in front of news cameras that dangerous people were clamoring to breach the country’s borders and branding such people “animals.”

Canada Calls For Probe Into Violence Against Palestinians
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is calling for a probe into the violence on Israel's border with the Gaza Strip after a Canadian doctor was wounded while tending to injured Palestinian protesters.
"Canada deplores and is gravely concerned by the violence in the Gaza Strip that has led to a tragic loss of life and injured countless people. We are appalled that Dr. Tarek Loubani, a Canadian citizen, is among the wounded — along with so many unarmed people, including civilians, members of the media, first responders, and children," Trudeau said in a statement on Wednesday

This Is The Reason Why Sean Spicer Is Still Unemployed
Listing a White House gig on your resume used to be considered a sparkling credential, reflecting a stint at the apex of the country’s political power.
But as with so many other things about Donald Trump’s unconventional presidency, former staffers in a White House plagued by constant intrigue and controversy are finding their association with this president a bit more complicated for post-administration prospects.

What’s the traditional gift for a one year “witch hunt” anniversary? Is it paper like a one year wedding anniversary? So maybe some indictments? Or can Mueller skip right to giving Trump iron shackles?- OhNoSheTwint


Giuliani: Mueller Can't Indict! Mueller Can't Indict!
Special counsel Robert Mueller's team has informed President Donald Trump's attorneys that they have concluded that they cannot indict a sitting president, according to the President's lawyer.
"All they get to do is write a report," Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani told CNN. "They can't indict. At least they acknowledged that to us after some battling, they acknowledged that to us."



Mueller. Avenatti. Ronan Farrow.
And Trump has.. Giuliani. It's hilarious.- Denizcan James

There was a huge gullywasher last night

Rainy season has officially arrived. This was the first heavy rain we've had since November. I spent the morning repairing the leaks in my metal roof. Duct tape works wonders until the repairman arrives.

I will be back online tomorrow!
