Trump rails against Cuomo "using his Attorney General as a bludgeoning tool for his own purposes"
President Donald Trump signaled possible new findings might be coming from investigators in New York state in a Monday afternoon Twitter rant.
The president sent out three tweets attacking the states Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Attorney General Letitia James claiming harassment against his family and their businesses.
It is very hard and expensive to live in New York, Trump began. Governor Andrew Cuomo uses his Attorney General as a bludgeoning tool for his own purposes. They sue on everything, always in search of a crime. I even got sued on a Foundation which took Zero rent & expenses & gave away more money than it had.
Going on for years, originally brought by Crooked Hillarys Campaign Chair, A.G. Eric Schneiderman, until forced to resign for abuse against women, he continued. They never even looked at the disgusting Clinton Foundation.
Now Cuomos A.G. is harassing all of my New York businesses in search of anything at all they can find to make me look as bad as possible, the president added. So, on top of ridiculously high taxes, my children and companies are spending a fortune on lawyers. No wonder people and businesses are fleeing New York in record numbers!

So many amazing things happened over the last three days. All, or at least most of those things, are great for the United States. Much was accomplished!

Fed judge orders US Customs & Border Protection to permit health experts into detention facilities
(CNN)A federal judge has ordered US Customs and Border Protection to permit health experts into detention facilities holding migrant children to ensure they're "safe and sanitary" and assess the children's medical needs.
The order encompasses all facilities in the CBP's El Paso and Rio Grande Valley sectors, which are the subject of a lawsuit.
Last week, lawyers asked US District Judge Dolly Gee to hold President Donald Trump's administration in contempt and order immediate improvements at the facilities. The lawyers are part of a team of doctors and advocates that warned last week of what they said were major health and hygiene problems at Customs and Border Protection facilities in Texas following visits to the facilities.
"Children are held for weeks in deplorable conditions, without access to soap, clean water, showers, clean clothing, toilets, toothbrushes, adequate nutrition or adequate sleep. The children, including infants and expectant mothers, are dirty, cold, hungry and sleep-deprived," the court filing said.

High-ranking North Korean defector: Kim Jong-un fell in love with Trump after realizing hes not moral
Trump lies about Obama again, reflects on his "certain chemistry" with Kim
The Hill
@thehill
President Trump: "President Obama wanted to meet and Chairman Kim would not meet him. The Obama Administration was begging for a meeting. They were begging for meetings constantly and Chairman Kim would not meet with him. And for some reason, we have a certain chemistry."

If you're curious about the current state of the Evangelical movement in America: Jerry Falwell, Jr. just retweeted Don, Jr. (another cretin we only know because of a rich daddy) yucking it up about an American resident who was tortured and murdered by a foreign government.

Aisha Moodie-Mills, on AM Joy, just had a "tongue slip" and called SHS "Sarah Suckabee Sanders"
Just one of those things that rocketed by in the blink of an eye, you're talking and the occasional word will twist, but it was GOLDEN.
The segment is discussing how the press attended her going away party, with some members saying "don't say I was here," the notion of kissing her ass for access when in reality the only thing they ever got from her was what she intended to give, which was lie after lie after lie, on her schedule, when it was convenient for her to do so.
