And another day where “I hereby demand” it comes to a close:

“The cancer that demands our urgent attention is corruption and poverty.” -- Miriam Defensor-Santiago

Trump Doubles Down on Unhinged Rant, “Hereby Demands” Probe Into Whether FBI “Infiltrated” Campaign. Just part of a wild morning of Twitteranting from the wannabe dictator. The man knows he’s in deep shit.

New NRA President Oliver North blames school shootings on Ritalin, “culture of violence.” “The disease is youngsters who are steeped in a culture of violence, they’ve been drugged in many cases.” Ollie North, ladies and gentlemen. An obviously intellectually supreme human being. Because Stephen Paddock, the Las Vegas shooter, was a “youngster” at 64. This goes far beyond school shootings, Ollie. They are not committed in silos. Don’t try to confuse people by pretending they are.

Texas high school shooter studied previous mass shootings before carrying out the attack.

Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick is a horrible person. “"This is not about guns," he said. "The smart things we can do about background checks and other issues we'll address, and we'll do. This is about us as a culture and a nation." He excoriated the video game industry, which he said propagates violence, and denounced a loss of faith and religion in society.” Scapegoat anything and everything, just make sure to not talk about guns.

The US is withdrawing aid from northwest Syria.

Former President Jimmy Carter says discrimination against women and girls is the world's biggest problem. Provided, you know, that you actually view women as equal to men.

French film director Luc Besson accused of rape.

Tax cut sparks record-setting $178 billion buyback boom. And many of you thought they gave a shit about you. Suckers. It was always about this boom...always. It was never meant to help you in anyway whatsoever except as an illusion.

Democrats are more supportive than Republicans of technology companies taking steps to restrict misinformation online. Shocking, I know. Republicans don’t want an educated, well-informed populace. It would hurt them, greatly.

Cougar kills mountain biker, injures another in Washington state. Hmmm, I’m reminded of the 1977 movie Day of the Animals. Yes, that’s Leslie Neilsen.

Students at most colleges don’t pick "useless" majors.

App that allows parents to spy on teens leaked thousands of passwords.

Vape pen explosion kills Florida man, police say.

“The only thing we know about the future is that it will be different.” -- Peter Drucker

Life’s short. Live, love, create, and help others.

Until next time, my friends. Good night.
