The Twitter Toddler strikes again!

After 7 months of investigations & committee hearings about my "collusion with the Russians," nobody has been able to show any proof. Sad!

Isn't this what he said about there not being a federal investigation, right before it was revealed there was a federal investigation?

The Fake News Media hates when I use what has turned out to be my very powerful Social Media - over 100 million people! I can go around them

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 16, 2017

Actually your Twitter account only lists 32 million followers and we already have seen that half of those are fake.

On the other hand Barack Obama has 91 million followers.

I'm just saying.

Despite the phony Witch Hunt going on in America, the economic & jobs numbers are great. Regulations way down, jobs and enthusiasm way up!

Oh somebody's been watching Fox and Friends again hasn't he?

I am being investigated for firing the FBI Director by the man who told me to fire the FBI Director! Witch Hunt

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 16, 2017

Yeah this one kind of stumped me.

So the only person I can come up with could have told Trump to fire Comey, AND is involved in any way with the ongoing investigation is  the Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.

Why Trump would target him I simply do not know, since it appears that he is doing what he can to keep a lid on this federal investigation.

What an odd statement - that feels consistent with the White House's recent war on leaks pic.twitter.com/Ci1CZ3uE7I

So, yeah that is weird.

I have literally no firm idea as to what Rosenstein, or the space pod that took over Rosenstein, is trying to say here.

But I think it means that we all need to keep on the lookout for some delicious new information coming from some place overseas that the Trump folks do not want us to believe.

 Hey, remember when Fridays started off kind of boring?

Yeah, me either.

Update: By the way Twitter just congratulated Katy Perry for being the FIRST person to attract 100 million followers. 

Damn! Busted by his favorite social media outlet.

Interesting New Rule from Bill Maher on Friday night's Real Time concerning the militarization of police.

Courtesy of Mediaite:  

Maher ran through the gamut of American small towns (e.g. — Doraville, Ga., Nixon, Mo., Justice, Ill.) that somehow employ military-style tanks in their police departments. These tanks, often gifted by the Pentagon to police departments, come “fresh from our glorious victories in Iraq and Afghanistan,” and are used for unnecessarily over-militarized police exercises. 

“Cops all know what it’s like when you get a new toy, you want to use it.” he continued. “I bought a glue gun once, and by the end of the weekend my dog’s face was stuck to the toilet rim. But in West Springfield, Mass., the police department’s new toy is two grenade launchers. Why? In case Boko Haram takes Connecticut?” he joked. 

Other interesting moments: 

“Once you start dressing and equipping people like an occupying army, they start acting like one.” 

“We used to send SWAT teams only for hostage or active shooter scenarios. It happened a few thousand times a year. Now it happens a thousand times a week — forced, no-knock entries into private homes. And now for almost any reason at all like serving warrants, breaking up poker games, arresting low-level pot dealers. Come on. It’s a guy who sells weed, you don’t need to shoot his dog and crash through his window.” 

“In the ’90s, conservatives used to warn about jack-booted government thugs coming to take away our freedoms. But where are those conservatives today when we need them? This is the massive expansion of government power that you numbskulls in the tea party should be freaking out about. You’re always screaming about the loss of liberty, and how tyranny is coming. Yeah, it’s coming right through the door with a battering ram, no warrant, and a stun grenade.”

I have always been a supporter of law enforcement, which is always made easier when you are a middle class white male living in a predominantly Caucasian community.

However the mindset that I see taking over the police force is numerous places throughout the country makes me want to avoid those places like the plague.

Take a look at that picture and tell me if the first thing that popped into your mind wasn't "Must be soldiers stationed over seas." But it's not, it's law enforcement professional on American streets dealing with American law breakers.

So now go ahead and tell me that having loose gun restrictions in this country is not negatively affecting ever one of its citizens. Because I think we all that these men are not covered in Kevlar because they are afraid of somebody pulling a knife or a baseball on them. 

Real Time with Bill Maher tonight should be a hoot!

Tonight Maher will have Ann Coulter, Montana Governor Brian Schweitzer, Ben Affleck, Sheila Bair, and Congressional asshole Darrell Issa on his show.

I cannot imagine how this WON'T be extremely entertaining!

For those who don't have access to HBO you can watch the program here, but probably not until after its initial broadcast.

For anybody else who might be watching tonight and wants to leave comments feel free, and I will add mine if anything good takes place. (Though keep in mind I am on Alaska time, so more than likely several hours behind most of you.)

Now if you will excuse me I have to go fire up my popcorn maker again.

I think this is a pretty good way to close out our Friday. Don't you?
