Mueller executed a search warrant this morning on Manafort's home. Which means he has probable cause.
Well, look at you. All dressed up in big sister's clothes.

Hence the threats of WWIII. Trump is getting desperate. He can't just resign, because that would be humiliating. So he has to get all nuclear and shit with an actual madman.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yikes yikes yikes.

Fact check: Apparently it was a couple of weeks ago. [link]

I think there's a lot that can come out in the next few months. People are going to get scared and start talking.

Okay, the stuff I have to drink for the CT scan isn't that bad. The label says "berry smoothie" and I thought "berry" was a play on "barium" -- and it might be -- but it did actually have a berryish flavor, so points to them.
I had to drink half now, and half at noon. So I have more barium smoothie to look forward to. Woo.

I will not be surprised if Trump has a mild "stroke" or something in the next couple of weeks. Cut down in his prime by the terrible stress brought on by the grave responsibilities of his high office. Though I doubt it would be his idea, because he is naturally the healthiest, most virile bull in the herd.

Impossible. Trump's doctor stated unequivocally that Trump would be the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Hope the CT scan provides answers, Steph. Mmmm barium. I'll have to do that soon when I finally get that colonoscopy.
Those are cute sandals. I would not like wearing them, though.
Halifax sounds lovely! I should include it in my upcoming hypothetical Canada touring vacation.
Trump and Kim - what happens when two narcissistic madmen with nukes start posturing and grunting at each other like gorillas and neither can back down? We'll soon find out, on the next episode of "America: Meltdown"! I'm alternating between being annoyed with both of them and being terrified.
See how I tried to make everything about me! Shout-out to Steph's mom.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Yeah, I don't think his ego would let him accept the fiction of a health problem.
I think the only way he'll voluntarily step down is if he figures out a way to mentally justify it. Because things are so stacked against him that naturally he feels he can help fix the country more as a private citizen.
