what the Yukon, Alaska and Lake Huron objects actually were. Heard on radio this AM that the search has been called off for all three - snow fall and remote terrain cited for Alaska and Yukon. I guess the "cylindrical object with no visible means of propulsion" for one will remain a mystery.

Why?

show that he donated his salary, as he claimed, while President? If so, he presumably would have claimed a deduction(?).

public disclosure of Trump's personal tax returns (in the absence of criminal charges). I'm not clear on that and is it not a rather unusual or unprecedented action?
