Did you notice that he got a hair cut!

"Last night on this show, I discussed information that wasn't ready for reporting," O'Donnell said. "I repeated statements a single source told me about the president's finances and loan documents with Deutsche Bank saying 'if true'-- as I discussed the information-- was simply not good enough. I did not go through the rigorous verification and standards process here at MSNBC before repeating what I heard from my source. Had it gone through that process, I would not have been permitted to report it. I should not have said it on-air or post it on Twitter. I was wrong to do so."

He went on to acknowledge the letter he and NBCUniversal received by Trump's legal counsel demanding a retraction and an apology for the "aforementioned false and defamatory" reporting and threated to take legal action.

"This afternoon, attorneys for the president sent us a letter asserting the story is false. They also demanded a retraction. Tonight, we are retracting the story," O'Donnell continued. "We don't know whether the information is inaccurate. The fact is we do know it wasn't ready for broadcast and for that I apologize.

It looks like actor, Hugh Grant, a long opponent of sovereignty for his country, got himself triggered by today's events.

He reported his own inability to be rational on Twitter, writing:

"Fuck off you over-promoted rubber bath toy. Britain is revolted by you and [your] little gang of masturbatory prefects.” LINK

. . . and that was about Johnson.

Looks like Johnson's gonna help Trump shoulder the leftist outrage machine.

In today's world, timid leadership is NO leadership at all.

And of course the O'Donnell story is completely absent from CNN"s main page. They are pushing the hurricane coverage like it's the first one in history, the devastating result of climate change.

Saw this on a church billboard when growing up, which pretty much sums up a lot..."If you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything"

Does anyone have more info on what he is doing with ethanol and ethanol refineries?
