Not a coincidence at all—it's a feature, not a bug. The guy who’s neck-deep in crimes wants to dismantle the very institutions that could hold him accountable. It’s the classic move of a wannabe autocrat trying to stack the deck in his favor.
The guy firing FBI directors also just happens to be to the guy who was convicted of 34 felonies, found liable for fraud and rape, was charged with hiding classified documents and lying to the FBI as well as leading a criminal enterprise to overturn an election.

Pretty wild coincidence, that.
"The president firing Comey while his campaign was under investigation was so abnormal that it sparked serious calls for Trump’s impeachment. But nearly 8 years later, we’re long past norms meaning anything, so Trump will now have the dubious distinction of firing the last two FBI directors."

Remember when "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" tried to teach us about tariffs and no one was paying attention

Here’s a guide to which goods the United States imports from Mexico, Canada and China.

1/ We're experiencing a huge influx of users, and with that, a predictable uptick in harmful content posted to the network.

As a result, for some very high-severity policy areas like child safety, we recently made some short-term moderation choices to prioritize recall over precision.

BLOOD QUANTUM (2018, Shudder, #film)

First Nations folk of a Quebec reservation find themselves immune to a zombie apocalypse; ironic battlelines form. A sprawling genre buffet with some *sensational* highs and okay glue. Often looks *fantastic*.
