Trump Is Ignoring Puerto Rico

General credited with turning around Katrina slams Trump’s ‘decision making’ on Puerto Rico
ussel Honoré, the lieutenant general largely credited with turning around the chaotic situation in New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina, criticized Donald Trump’s administration for its handling of the unfolding disaster in Puerto Rico, Bloomberg reports.
“It’s kind of like Katrina: We got it. We got it. Oh, sh*t, send in the cavalry,” the retired general said Wednesday. “This is a hit on White House decision making.”

There are a gazillion planes, ships, amphibious vehicles at Florida military bases alone and the US Navy's Fourth Fleet Command in the Caribbean and Central America is closeby, too. Trump is deplorable.

Russia Russia Russia

Russian-funded Facebook ads backed Stein, Sanders and Trump
Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein was the beneficiary of at least one of the Russian-bought political ads on Facebook that federal government officials suspect were intended to influence the 2016 election.
Other advertisements paid for by shadowy Russian buyers criticized Hillary Clinton and promoted Donald Trump. Some backed Bernie Sanders and his platform even after his presidential campaign had ended, according to a person with knowledge of the ads.

The NFL Was On Trump's ~~Bucket~~ Hit List
President Donald Trump's war with the NFL is big news these days, but he's been waging battles with the league for decades—when he hasn't been trying to woo it...It was Trump's undying need to get into the NFL that drove the billionaire to buy his way into the upstart league in the '80s. But the big league wasn't a fan.

A 1982 television special “I Love Liberty,” Robin Williams channeled the voice of the American flag.

The New York Times Created Its Own Distorted News
This week Jill Abramson, the estimable former executive editor of The New York Times, whom I’ve always admired and never criticized, contended that I had been “stoking” the idea that the NYT had a vendetta against Hillary Clinton.
That is false.
What I have argued, repeatedly during the campaign and most recently nine days ago in an item about Hillary Clinton’s new book, is that the Times very badly erred in its wild over-coverage of the Clinton email “issue,” and that this distorted coverage was, in turn, one of many factors leading to Donald Trump’s elevation to the presidency.
