Big news this morning on the legal side of the T-Rump world as it was announced New York prosecutors are not only pursuing a criminal angle, but also now going after the orange turd’s CFO of all the T-Tump bullshit business dealings, inide and out — I have my doubts T-Rump will ever see the…
In a break from below-ground chaos from Republicans, rattling cages in all direction, a quick look this Wednesday afternoon at the advancing news-cycle item of unidentified flying objects, which seems to have gained reputable status lately.
