    I am a friend of @BeschlossDC But a source tells me that he has a photo studio in his basement, where he gets a group of actors to dress up and pose for the historical "photos" he posts here. The man who is "Grant" is also a clown for kids birthday parties. https://twitter.com/BeschlossDC/status/998629606272925697 …

        And I just noticed, Michael: what looks like a cigar in Grant's hand is actually an iPhone 8, turned sideways. Brilliant stagecraft!

        There was a point where Grant probably would have taken the clown gig.

        What @nprscottsimon posts as a joke could become #Breitbart or #AlexJones conspiracy theory tomorrow, you know. (And I’m only half-joking.)

        So we have photographic proof of clown association and yet officials refuse to act. Dark times we live in.

        Sounds like Scott Simon is FAKE NEWS! But, since he's a Cubs fan, I'll let it go.

        Historically accurate. Grant moonlighted as a party clown in real life, didn't he?
