Some blame for the White House chaos on North Korea goes to John Bolton, who has a perfect record: Over the last 20 years on the big issues of Iraq, Iran and North Korea, he has been 100 percent wrong. Dangerously wrong. https://t.co/1lHbmGD8zB pic.twitter.com/DVp3KvyvJQ

In adopting an off-and-on attitude to the North Korea summit, Trump has displayed virtually no regard for the consequences of his actions on American allies, including South Korea and Japan. https://t.co/WkpeAEONoA

Was off-line til now. Came back to find 1 GOP lawmaker compared those who take knee during anthem, to Nazis; another, says ok not to rent to gays; Trump’s ghosting a WH official he’s pretending doesnt exist; oh, and he’s also lying about breaking up families. Did I miss anything?

Trump has made at least 3 baldfaced lies today: separation of children from parents is required by law; FBI didn't warn his campaign about Russia; senior WH official in briefing doesn't exist.
My worry is that the next president will think that telling just 2 lies is okay.— Seth Masket (@smotus) May 26, 2018

One of the many problems with Trump’s "Spygate" theory is the idea that the FBI and “Deep State” would go to all that trouble penetrating his campaign with a “spy” and then not use what they had gleaned to destroy his chances of winning the election https://t.co/ius07S2qqt

BREXIT BRITAIN
Mortifying, withering assessment from @MichelBarnier of Britain’s inability to grasp the reality that Brexit means Brexit.
