I ain’t the sort of dog, to raise my kids In fact, it’s boring as hell And there’s no one to tweet… if I did And all that science, I don’t understand The facts are lies, the lies are truth. A Barking DooOOOOooog. A Barking dog. And I think I’m gonna bark a long, long time When Master brings back into my life I’m not a dog until I have my phone, Oh, no, no, no… I’m the Barking Dog!

Thanks! It was a group effort, though. 🙂 This morning’s dustup between Trump, LeBron James, and Steph Curry is priceless. Coming after that completely deranged speech last night, he even has the NFL releasing statements and players commenting left and right. ---

Coming after that completely deranged speech last night, he even has the NFL releasing statements and players commenting left and right. Yeah. Nothing like stirring up a little animus towards black athletes to distract people from his Russia problems. Or his Obamacare problems. Or his expiring travel ban. Or his failed Wall project. Or his weird kids. Or his mancrush on Turkish thugs. Or his charity fraud. It’s getting kind of hard to keep track. ---

I’m just imaging how it’s going at the White House. “How did the President’s speech go?” “Well, there’s good news and bad news.” “What’s the good news?” “As you know, we have a list of things the President has said and done that we’re trying to divert public attention away from. And his attack on football last night succeeded in diverting public attention away from all the items on the list.” “What’s the bad news?” “We now have to add last night’s speech to the list.” ---

Plus no matter what Trump tries, we have Robert Mueller toiling away, bit by bit, slowly but surely building his case. I expect great things from him when he finally wraps this up. ---

[Okay, they were more diplomatic than that…](https://apnews.com/1ef89147d2f04b679fa923c4d226ff19/Warriors-spurn-White-House-trip-after-Trump-pulls-invitation) > [@](#): > > The Warriors say they’re “disappointed that we did not have an opportunity during this process to share our views or have open dialogue on issues impacting our communities that we felt would be important to raise.” I like it tho. Trump disrespected a Golden State Warrior and the team opted to stick together and back their teammate. As a proud Union member, I approve of this action.
