Ron Placone rejoices at Trump firing John Bolton: “Its good that John Bolton’s gone, that’s a sigh of relief. Hopefully, hopefully, there’s just not another warmongering psychopath to step in, hopefully, that’s not the case. Is there a chance that’s gonna be the case? Yeah, and there’s a good chance it’s gonna be the case based on past behavior. But its good that John Bolton’s gone… its very very very very good that John Bolton gone. And let’s hope for the best. Let’s hope that they had genuine disagreements where Trump’s like I’m tired of all these wars. And I told the American people I was going to end them. And I was not going to be an interventionist. I told the American people that. Maybe that happened- I doubt it.”

“Trump need to stop playing and make Tulsi his national security advisor,” says Niko House.

Nial Rortsfike Elkim seems mad at me. Was it something I said?

Speaking of Nial Rortsfike Elkim, he just retweeted fake news that was debunked a year ago by french-language fact checking website HoaxBuster.

Nial Rortsfike Elkim’s re-tweet

Craig “Pasta” Jardula, on Periscope, expressed support for Donald Trump’s ‘executive order to monitor the internet’ to combat “conservative bias” from Google. Worse, he used a Prager U video to reinforce the debunked talking point. (6 minute mark on Periscope.)

Graham Elwood was excited to finally meet Bernie Sanders, Elwood announced he was ‘with the Jimmy Dore Show,’ tragically, Bernie barely glanced at him, gave a shoulder pat in haste, and a ‘thank you’ before spending noticeable extra moments with other guests. In fact, commenters noted Graham scared Bernie off, by saying he was with The Jimmy Dore Show. If you watch the full three minute video, you can see the rejection registering on Graham’s face, slowly…Bowie’s Starman playing in the background, is a nice touch, too.
