An amazing new Trump controversy, Part II of II:
- Saturday afternoon: Trump says he spoke to Bolsonaro the night before and planned to see him “in the very near future”

White House hedges on Trump’s curious claim about his call with Brazil’s Bolsonaro White House hedges on Trump’s curious claim about his call with Brazil’s Jair Bolsonaro

If there are any Doctor Who fans out there, I'll post some pictures when the time comes. There's some big stuff, like a huge framed poster, that I won't ship and will need to find a local home for, but I may ultimately decide to gift some of her other collectibles. You'll just pay shipping.

Interesting, the halcyon days that all of MAGA harken back to had ~80% top brackets. It’s almost like they could invest in services and infrastructure.
