4. Justify use of the AEA for deportation/internment
5. Help the drug lord he just pardoned

Pro-wrestling legend Mick Foley announced this morning that he's parting ways with WWE over the organization's "close relationship with Donald Trump," saying the president's "incredibly cruel comments in the wake of Rob Reiner’s death is the final straw for me."

I Sat Down to Dinner With Rob, Michele and Nick Reiner. It Was Heartwarming and Jarring.

With the son suspected of murdering his parents, recalling an hours-long session at a Toronto restaurant 10 years ago and the light it sheds on a dark dynamic.

Stop criticizing Trump's bad economy. You're making him sad.

You think you've got it hard trying to put food on the table? Try being President Donald Trump, the billionaire saint of perpetual grievance.

Stop criticizing Trump's bad economy. You're making him sad. | Opinion
Donald Trump is swiftly losing control of his presidency, and he has it in his head that 'affordability' is a hoax and not a real word.

With this latest mass shooting at Brown University, this might be a good time to mention that Bill Clinton’s assault weapons ban reduced mass shooting deaths by 43% - but after George W Bush & Republicans let it expire, mass shooting deaths spiked by 239%.

It's the guns!!! :(

Trump sent Vance there twice. He threatened to cut off all federal spending to the state. He vowed to back primary challengers of any Republican who voted against him here. He posted their names online, prompting his fans to send them death threats.

But all that failed, so now he wasn't involved.
Reporter: The senate in Indiana voted against the redistricting effort.

Trump: I wasn't working on it very hard. I wasn't very much involved

Mockler: As much as the Trump admin tries to act like it's different from prior Republican administrations, they're doing the same thing. They cut taxes for the richest, they cut benefits for the poorest, and then they go to war for either regime change or for oil.

Good news. I think I've come up with a policy idea that can both eliminate the harm that Trump's trade war is doing to farmers AND also reduce the cost of groceries for regular Americans. (You'll never guess what it is.)
Farmers get a bail out in the face of the costs they've born from Trump's trade war. Quite an admission that his policies have hurt Americans.

Now riddle me this: Why not bail out consumers who are paying more for imported goods?

Consumer Reports ranks Teslas as the least reliable used cars. "The best of the worst [ten] was Chevrolet at a score of 40. But Tesla makes that failing grade seem respectable with its absolute rock bottom rating of 31, trailing Jeep by just one point.” futurism.com/advanced-tra...
Old Teslas Are Falling Apart
On Consumer Reports' latest ranking of used car reliability, Tesla came in dead last with a rating not even half of the top placed brand.
