Osama Bin Laden didn't fly planes into the World Trade Center himself. He got his followers worked into a frenzy and they did it for him, @realDonaldTrump.

The mockingbirds have a new batch out of the nest. I'm watching a young bird begging one of

the adults to feed him. He's nearly the size of his parents, but still hanging out with them.

Kellyanne Conway Snaps Back at Reporter: 'What's Your Ethnicity?'

https://www.thedailybeast.com/kellyanne-conway-snaps-back-at-reporter-whats-your-ethnicity

When White House reporter Andrew Feinberg posed a question to Kellyanne Conway on Tuesday about the president’s racist tweets against the four congresswomen known as the “Squad,” he found himself taken aback by her response.

Feinberg, a reporter for the website BeltwayBreakfast.com, asked the White House counselor which countries President Donald Trump was referring to when he suggested Ayanna Pressley, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar—all U.S. citizens—should “go back” to where they came from.

Instead of answering that question, Conway asked him, “What’s your ethnicity?”

“Uh... why is that relevant?” Feinberg asked before Conway interrupted him to say, “Because I’m asking you a question.”

Fact check: Trump makes 3 false claims in 19 words about his approval rating

https://www.cnn.com/2019/07/15/politics/fact-check-trump-approval-record/index.html

Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump made three false claims on Saturday in a single 19-word tweet.

The tweet: "94% Approval Rating in the Republican Party, an all time high. Ronald Reagan was 87%. Thank you!"
Facts First: Trump does not have a 94% approval rating among Republicans; he is at 90% in Gallup polling. Trump has not recorded the all-time high for Republican approval; his peak ranks sixth out of the seven Republican presidents after World War II. And Reagan's peak was 94%, not 87%.
Trump has been falsely claiming for more than a year to have set the all-time high for approval among Republican voters -- first at "over 90%," then at "93%," and now, as of June, at "94%." He has even claimed to have beaten Abraham Lincoln, though there was no scientific polling on approval ratings in the 1800s.

And nothing but silence from Republicans.

During the 2016 campaign, whenever Trump made racist or xenophobic comments there was a small but reliable chorus of Republican office holders who spoke out. Today, there’s silence, nine hours later.
