At least he has joined the real world…in an 11-year old’s sense of it, that is. ---

Must find leaker now!” I am reminded of the old joke about an Irish bard who decided to amuse himself at the expense of a Viking raider: “How could you come here, of all places, and destroy the home of the famous Talking Animals of Ireland?” “Animals no talk.” “That’s what you think! See over there…” He pointed and threw his voice, causing the cow to apparently say, “Well, why should I talk to _you_, after you dragged off my milkmaid?” As the Viking stared in confusion, the bard pointed again. A horse then “spoke” up, "And why would _I_ talk to you, when you burned up my hay? The bard gave the Viking a moment to recover his composure, and continued, “That’s not all…” and pointed again. The Viking looked where he was pointing and began to scream, “_Sheep lie! SHEEP LIE!!_” ---

Must find leaker now!” Wait…I’m confused. Trump says there’s no evidence of collusion, but Comey just said that there’s an ongoing investigation. How can those both be true? /sarcasm ---

Maybe he’ll spare a kind word for Gowdy, he seems much more focused on who leaked (was it Yates, was it Rice, was it… OBAMA?) Then any Russian connection. ---

Trump just tweeted “[The NSA and FBI tell Congress that Russia did not influence electoral process](https://twitter.com/POTUS/status/843865267008655360).” This was from his official POTUS account, not from his personal account. But that’s not at all true. What Admiral Michael Rogers said was, “[I would highlight we are a foreign intelligence organization, not a domestic intelligence organization. So it would be fair to say we are probably not the best organization to provide a more complete answer](https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/20/us/politics/james-comey-mike-rogers-transcript-excerpts.html)”. And he was responding to a specific question as to whether there was any evidence that Russia _changed vote tallies in Michigan_. Specifically. It was not a question about interfering in the election. ---

The good news is that the Democrats actually fact checked that tweet in real time by asking Comey to confirm Trump’s tweeted statement, which Comey refused to do.
