Wishful thinking on my part

Queen Elizabeth gives Trump a first edition of Churchill's 'The Second World War'
Queen Elizabeth II gave President Trump an abridged first edition of Winston Churchill's "The Second World War" after the president arrived for his first state visit in the United Kingdom on Monday.

I love that Queen Elizabeth gave Trump a Winston Churchill book as a present. What is he supposed to do with that? Eat it? - Chelsea Handler

hey UK — would you like your visiting head of state to be a vulgar pig who insults your royal family and London's mayor, or would you prefer him to be a confused old duffer who complains that he can't get his favorite TV shows? what if I were to tell you that you could have both. - Jeff Tiedrich tweet


I Was Hoping Some Brit Would Pull A Monty Python Type Joke

Mexican president says country will 'overcome' Trump threats, urges national unity
Mexico's president said on Friday he would respond with "great prudence" to threats by his U.S. counterpart Donald Trump to impose tariffs on Mexican goods entering the United States, and called on Mexicans to unite to face the challenge.

It’s pathetic to watch the reviews of Mueller as performance art. He issued a clarion call that we’ve been attacked — and continue to be under attack — by an enemy power and that POTUS is covering it all up rather than defending America. And people dissect his double negatives! - Laurence Tribe, Harvard Law

Self-Censoring By The New York Times

Barr makes this clear today: he didn’t simply misinterpret Mueller, he overruled him- “WE DIDN’T AGREE WITH THE LEGAL ANALYSIS..IT DID NOT REFLECT THE VIEWS OF THE DEPARTMENT. IT WAS THE VIEWS OF PARTICULAR LAWYER OR LAWYERS, AND SO WE APPLIED WHAT WE THOUGHT WAS THE RIGHT LAW.” - Jim Sciutto, CNN
