AUTHORITARIANISM. John Oliver takes a deep dive into a troubling trend. “The world is dabbling with something very dangerous right now, and America needs to be careful. And look, I know democracy can be, often by design, frustrating. Checks and balances can be irritating and slow, and might not deliver the outcome you wanted. But removing them opens the door to something much worse.”
BILL MAHER. HBO host mocks those who mourn Stan Lee, blames comic books for getting Trump elected.
MAJOR. Joe Biden adopts German Shepherd from Delaware Humane Society.
WILDFIRES. Idiot says people raking their leaves will prevent wildfires.
OSAMA BIN LADEN. Trump mocks military officers and Navy Seals who killed Bin Laden.
Of course we should have captured Osama Bin Laden long before we did. I pointed him out in my book just BEFORE the attack on the World Trade Center. President Clinton famously missed his shot. We paid Pakistan Billions of Dollars & they never told us he was living there. Fools!..

….We no longer pay Pakistan the $Billions because they would take our money and do nothing for us, Bin Laden being a prime example, Afghanistan being another. They were just one of many countries that take from the United States without giving anything in return. That’s ENDING!

GARTH GREENWELL. The Frog King.
MONEY PROBLEMS. Michael Bloomberg donates $1.8 billion to Johns Hopkins University for financial aid: ‘This will make admissions at Hopkins forever need-blind; finances will never again factor into decisions.

And it will make the campus more socioeconomically diverse.’
