South Africa to formally protest Trump's 'shithole countries' remarks
South Africa will issue a diplomatic protest to the United States Monday over US President Donald Trump's "shithole countries" comments, according to its foreign ministry.

Dear Millennials ,
When Baby Boomers were your age, their civil rights leaders were gunned down in a 5 year span from 1963-1968.

JFK
Malcolm X
MLK
RFK.

We Persisted. Continue the fight.

I have a dream that Trump will shut the f*ck up today. #MLKDay - Andy Borowitz

The World Is A Safer Place Without ~~Saddam~~ Trump

In the seven days since Oprah’s speech, Bannon was axed by Breitbart, Trump made his shithole comments, a porn star was revealed to have been paid $130K to deny having sex with Trump, and there was a fake missile attack on Hawaii, just in case you were wondering why you aged thirty years this week.- Andy Borowitz

I 💓 Conan O'Brien
Conan O’Brien was one of many Americans who were unhappy to read the reports that President Donald Trump called some foreign nations, including Haiti, “s—hole” countries — an insult that has been met with outrage and charges of racism. (Trump and Republican officials have disputed the exact comment, and today, Trump declared, “I am not a racist.”) But the host of Conan is not just doing a monologue about it, he’s hopping on a plane and letting cameras roll for an hour long special.

Still reeling from @realDonaldTrump’s very negative Yelp review of Haiti, which means I’ll love it. Headed to Haiti later this week to explore and make some new friends. Stay tuned for my report. #ConanWithoutBorders - Conan O'Brien

It would take 32-37 minutes for Korean missile to hit HI. Alert retraction took 38.

MSNBC Should Rename HARDBALL To SPITBALL
As you may know, Chris Matthews, host of MSNBC's Hardball, recently pinched Hillary Clinton's cheek and then claimed that he is not obsessed with her. But, as this story on Daily Kos shows, Matthews is not only obsessed with Ms. Clinton, he has a burning desire to belittle, denigrate, smear, malign, badmouth and vilify her. Blogger David Brock has compiled a thorough list of Matthews' offenses against Ms. Clinton (and a few other female political figures) and it's abhorrent.

Today, Dr. King’s legacy is a guiding light. As we push and pull for a more just and more equal society, Dr King’s campaigns against war, against poverty, against racism show us that love is the universal value of a society at peace with itself. - Rep. John Lewis

Meanwhile, Trump Is Ignoring Our Cybersecurity
The same Russian government-aligned hackers who penetrated the Democratic Party have spent the past few months laying the groundwork for an espionage campaign against the U.S. Senate, a cybersecurity firm said Friday.

Does Trump Make Up This Stuff Or His Staff?
President Donald Trump blamed his decision not to visit the UK on a "bad deal" cut by the Obama administration over the relocation of the US embassy in London.
"Reason I canceled my trip to London is that I am not a big fan of the Obama Administration having sold perhaps the best located and finest embassy in London for "peanuts," only to build a new one in an off location for 1.2 billion dollars. Bad deal. Wanted me to cut ribbon-NO!" Trump tweeted.

Who cares what media outlets are deciding about the word “shithole”?

CNN political commentator Ed Martin is giving an award for “uncovering the truth” to James O’Keefe, who has targeted CNN with deceitful stings. Martin has repeatedly sought to delegitimize CNN both before and after being hired by the network.
Martin is a pro-Trump pundit who joined CNN in September 2017 despite previously calling the network “fake news” and “state-run media.”
