    National Park Service employee tells me they got an email around 10am ordering flags at half staff. Around 2:30pm, email went out cancelling it and saying flag should go back to regular order. And around 5:30, another one went out saying to lower again.

        Employee says the flag lowering process is usually very straightforward — start and end time. This was... different.

        Ok this is petty and typical but let’s not forget they still have several hundred kids jailed without their parents and they probably won’t see them again. Plus all the deaths in Puerto Rico. And the scams from last week. This HELPS Trump get away from all that. Focus!

        My suggestion is someone needs to build a big board of all of his largest misdeeds, ranked. And maybe another board of status of how everything is being fought. He knows how to make a minor scandal cover up a major one in DAYS so we don’t let them.

        While I could build this it is better if I site with visitor traffic does this and it gets maintained by reporters. But I think we need a way to keep people remembering and it may help reach low information voters.

        Crap are those K-Cups behind him or his little commemorative coin collection from the Franklin Mint? I wonder how many he’s had made to sell all his bullshit to his base? One for every failure he’s made in office.😂

        I think those are the stupid coins. I'm still wondering what the exchange rate is going to be between those and bottlecaps once we get out of the vaults into the nuclear wasteland.
