Consumer confidence is at a 16 year high....and for good reason. Much more regulation "busting" to come. Working hard on tax cuts & reform!

Something weird is happening with President Trump's Twitter (from Gizmodo)
President Trump loves Twitter. It’s a direct stream-of-consciousness rant about whatever pops into his mind (or onto cable TV) at any given second. But here at Gizmodo we can’t help but notice that something is a little different this week. The president’s Twitter feed has become, dare we say, restrained?
Yes, “restrained” is all relative, and there’s always the danger of saying that Donald Trump is “pivoting” at the precise moment that he shows us he’s the same man he always was. But there’s a noticeable change in his tweets from the past few days. Just take a look at his tweets from this morning:

Notice anything strange? Yes, Trump is still tweeting out things in a bombastic manner that would be considered ridiculous by normal presidential standards. But if you look at his most recent tweets, there is a lot less attacking of his “enemies” and a lot more emphasis on what he sees as positive developments. And it’s been happening all week.

Happy 56th Birthday - George Clooney
Maybe you remember him from the old shows "The Facts of Life" or "E.R."
Or maybe you remember him from his more recent movies, but George Clooney has always been a star.
Happy Birthday George Clooney!

Barack Obama to attend Dan Rooney's funeral Tuesday
WASHINGTON – Barack Obama will attend the funeral of Pittsburgh Steelers owner Dan Rooney, who under the president served as ambassador to Ireland.
Mr. Obama is not expected to speak during Tuesday’s services at St. Paul Cathedral in Oakland, spokesman Kevin Lewis said.
The funeral Mass will be held at 11 a.m.
After Mr. Rooney died last week at age 84, Mr. Obama issued a statement calling him a “great friend” and a “championship-caliber good man,” who was well-loved by Pittsburghers for both his Super Bowl championships and his generosity of spirit.
Post-Gazette news partner KDKA reports that former vice-president Joe Biden and his wife will attend, as will John Kerry, Teresa Heinz Kerry, and Eric Holder.
