You know those alligators.
How goes Brexit? "French and British duel over scallop fishing rights in the English Channel." (Grokked from Matt Staggs)
"Atlantic reporter Rosie Gray obtained emails that show a former Homeland Security employee was involved in planning social events with white supremacists, self-described racists, and 'white advocates'. The DHS response: 'This type of radical ideology runs counter to the Department’s mission of keeping America safe.'" (Grokked from Xeni Jardin)
"Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos is formulating new policies regarding how universities handle sexual assault and harassment cases… The new rules would increase protections for students accused of sexual misconduct, reduce liability for colleges and universities and encourage schools to broaden their support networks for victims, according to The New York Times." Well of course it does.
"It took just 12 hours and one word for the nation’s newly minted marquee governor’s race to devolve into accusations of racism and socialism." You make it sound like it's the Democrat's fault. Both the racism and the socialism call came from the other party.
"North Korea's 'belligerent' letter to President Donald Trump and the abrupt cancellation of secretary of state Mike Pompeo's trip to Pyongyang was all it took to throw cold water on the peaceful overtures following the Singapore summit in June." I believe you proceed from a false assumption that there was any progress made in Singapore.
"President Trump attacked CNN on Wednesday, writing on Twitter that the network had been 'caught in a major lie' in connection to an article it published in July about claims made by the president’s former personal lawyer, Michael D. Cohen." Well, no. Cohen's lawyer, one of the sources cited by CNN, is walking back his statements. It also seems telling that the president and his son are specifically attacking Carl Bernstein. You may remember Mr. Bernstein as one of the pair that exposed Nixon's involvement and coverup in Watergate.
"In a pair of early-morning tweets, President Donald Trump took aim at Google’s system of search results, saying it was biased against outlets that are friendly to him." His claim of "96% are from national left-wing media" is rated as false by Politifact.
"Lawyers for Paul Manafort suggested President Donald Trump is making it harder for his ex-campaign boss to get a fair trial as they asked a judge to move his next case on charges brought by special counsel Robert Mueller out of a Washington, D.C., federal court." That's the problem with highly vocal, unindicted co-conspirators. See Rudy Giuliani.
