Trump called the protests on the streets of London fake news because he didn't see them.
He can watch them on his favorite TV station CNN.

Speaking of Marines it's interesting to note that Gen. Eisenhower barred Marines from landing at Normandy....

U.S. Marines, who specialize in amphibious warfare were prohibited from taking part in the amphibious assault on the beaches of Normandy..Trump in Normandy speaking with FOX called Mueller a fool.

Yes, the Corps trained the Army units for the beach assault while most Marines were in the Pacific.
Tom Brokaw coined these Americans as the Greatest Generation having personal responsibility, ethics and a sense of family during the Great Depression & WW II. It was a time of great unity within the country especially after the bombing of Pearl Harbor.

CORRECTION: Gizmodo originally stated that drug company Mallinckrodt had jacked up the price of an anti-seizure medication from $40 in 2000 to over $40,000 today. A spokesperson for Mallinckrodt emailed to request a correction that the drug costs $38,892.
The pharmaceutical company responsible for one of the largest drug price increases in US history "knowingly paid illegal kickbacks" as part of an elaborate scheme to make millions and stick the American taxpayer with the bill, the US Department of Justice said Wednesday in a lawsuit filed against Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals.
In its complaint, the government demanded a jury trial that would put front and center the actions of the company at the heart of a 97,000% drug price hike. The price of Mallinckrodt's anti-inflammatory drug Acthar -- best known for treating babies with a debilitating seizure disorder -- has gone from $40 a vial in 2000 to nearly $39,000 today.
The government alleged Mallinckrodt used a foundation, called the Chronic Disease Fund, as a conduit to pay kickbacks as part of the scheme to maintain the high price of Acthar.
Fining this company is not enough IMO. Take away their ability to do business in our country & have members of management spend time in prison.

EPA head Andrew Wheeler has a proposal for climate change. Just have the media stop catastrophizing about it.
When 21 I had a loud knocking sound coming from the front of my Dodge Charger. So I turned the volume up on the radio to solve the problem.
The knocking never went away and neither will climate change.

In his Fox interview at the cemetery in France, Trump told a new lie about NATO — saying Stoltenberg “made a speech the other day, he said, without Donald Trump maybe there would be no NATO.” NATO pointed me to their Stoltenberg speech transcripts, which include no such remark.
This is from a Trump fact checker catching him in another lie. Stoltenberg is the Secretary General of NATO.
He lies for no farking reason other than he's demented among other things.

For all of the money we are spending, NASA should NOT be talking about going to the Moon - We did that 50 years ago. They should be focused on the much bigger things we are doing, including Mars (of which the Moon is a part), Defense and Science!
This was Trump earlier today.
Donnie...the Moon is not a part of Mars & your head is up Uranus.
This guy is scary stupid. How can so many still support someone this farking dumb? OK, so you made a mistake & you got conned. Don't make the matter worse by not admitting you've been had & keep putting up with his ridiculous bullshit.

"I know so much about the Moon, folks. So much about it. Some people say I should write a book about the Moon. I write terrific books. I have the best words. I look up at our very lovely Moon and say now that's a moon. I could write a book about it. You think I should? I know more about the Moon than Pink Floyd that I can tell you."

Trump is the enemy of traditional institutions of truth. He lies constantly and doesn't care. He attacks mainstream media to raise doubts about facts. His budgets cut public school funding every year and worsens debt crisis for postsecondary students. Science is undermined by censoring scientists and suppressing scientific evidences according to Union of concerned scientists.

MEXICO HAS AGREED TO IMMEDIATELY BEGIN BUYING LARGE QUANTITIES OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCT FROM OUR GREAT PATRIOT FARMERS!
This was from Trump.
Neither country will confirm this statement. So once again it appears to be total bullshit.
How can Mexico buy a large quantity of product and pay for the wall?

Tuesday June 10th the Judicial Committee will hold a hearing regarding the Mueller report. Snowflake Senator Doug Collins of Georgia submitted a letter to Chairman Nadler asking that certain words/terms be banned when Trump is discussed. Here's the list...
Cowardly,, infantile, delusional, bilking the taxpayer, liar, hypocritical, amoral, draft dodger, lining the pockets of his cronies, crook, conman, racist, bigot, misogynist, un-American, spying & abuse of power.
Nadler will rule on this request prior to the meeting. None of these words are worse that Trump uttering "bullshit" at his cult meetings.

Food account for under 2% of total imports for Mexico. This won't compensate US farmers for loss of exports to China because of stupid trade war. The great Reagan once warned about politicians such as Trump who oppose free trade. Most economists don't consider trade deficits necessarily bad. Deficits occur naturally when rich nations buy more from poorer nations. Both importers and exporters benefit from trading. In 1930s, US had a trade surplus when the economy was in a great depression.

Midnight1 is right. US state department and mexico foreign ministry aren't aware of any increased agriculture trade in agreement according to Bloomberg. Months ago, Mexico agreed to extra policing of its south border according to New York times. Again, Trump manufactures a crisis by threatening tariffs and tries to fool people into thinking that only he can fix it. US businesses may go bankrupt because of his trade war turning US into an unreliable supplier for foreign markets.

The Transportation Department under Secretary Elaine Chao designated a special liaison to help with grant applications and other priorities from her husband Mitch McConnell’s state of Kentucky, paving the way for grants totaling at least $78 million for favored projects as McConnell prepared to campaign for reelection.
Chao’s designation of Inman as a special intermediary for Kentucky — a privilege other states did not enjoy — gave a special advantage to projects favored by her husband, which could in turn benefit his political interests. In such situations, ethicists say, each member of a couple benefits personally from the success of the other.
“Where a Cabinet secretary is doing things that are going to help her husband get reelected, that starts to rise to the level of feeling more like corruption to the average American. … I do think there are people who will see that as sort of ‘swamp behavior,’” said John Hudak, a Brookings Institution scholar who has studied political influence in federal grant-making.
Dirty dirty dirty. It's business as usual & it's our fault for letting these people stay in office.

Trump's golf tab costs taxpayers $106 million according to Government accountability office. He has spend 181 days on golf courses during first 2.5 years as president. Mar-a-lago costs $3.4 million each trip. That's more golf time than all previous presidents combined since the 1990s. This shows a great disrespect for taxpayers.

He also doesn't care about the national debt because it will be his successor's problem & that of our children's children.

Drunken Florida Rep Matt Gaetz made a fool of himself again this afternoon while John Dean was giving his input.
Gaetz: "Mr. Dean has made a cottage industry of comparing presidents to Richard Nixon."
Dean: "Mr. Gaetz, I appreciate you weren't born when this all happened. It is not by choice that I have done all this."
In other words, Please Child.

Rep Rob Woodall (R-GA) admitted he didn't read the Mueller report. He couldn't take the time as a member of Congress or as a concerned citizen of the country to read what Mueller's team found.
Oversight is part of his farking job. He's an attorney who should be able to buzz right through a report of his nature.

Fordham University in the Bronx has confirmed the receipt of a letter from Trump's lawyer (the report doesn't exactly say it was from Cohen) warning the school not to release any information regarding Trump's grades. The letter was dated in May of 2015 a month before Trump started his campaign. The letter was preceded by a phone call from a member of Trump's campaign.
None of these threats were necessary.
A Fordham University spokesman stated the school is bound by federal law barring the release of student records.
So how bad could his grades have been? Even if he was a C student (I'm probably being generous), it could be said he was a young man & school wasn't a top priority at the time etc.
Each day this fraud gets exposed for the POS he is & has always been.
