Link Me Up, Scotty - Dumber than a Box of Rocks Edition

Cthulhu's children, 45 is so stupid. He's now compromising his own SCOTUS case regarding his ridiculous "travel ban" by failing to STFU about it and follow the Justice Department attorneys' advice. What is wrong with him?

Local peeps: Douglas County Library's Summer Reading Program for kids and adults is now in full swing. And, of course, so is mine.

GRAIN OF SALT WARNING: Yahoo News' factual accuracy is sometimes suspect, and I have been unable to find this news reported anywhere else.

Apparently four law firms who are considered some of the best in the United States have turned down retainers from the President to defend him in the on-going Congressional and Justice Department investigations surrounding improprieties during the 2016 election. The reasons? 45 doesn't pay his bills, he won't listen to experts in their fields, and the firms themselves are concerned about their reputations if they're associated with the President of the United States. That is some fucked up shit, right there.
________

From the "an embarrassment to us all" files: London's Mayor, Sadiq Khan, is calling on the British government to cancel 45's state visit (after throwing 45 some shade for his stupid Twitter rant) basically because our President is a Grade A Tool.
________

And....no one wants to work for 45. Including the spouse of one of his closest advisors. Completely understandable - what if some that gets on you and you can't get it off?
________

You know that $110B deal 45 supposedly made with Saudi Arabia for arms? Yeah, totally not a "deal." And totally started during the Obama administration. What a troll.

Orly has collaborated with Muslim Girl to create Halal certified nail polishes for Muslim women. Speaking as an Atheist, I have to say that this is what inclusion looks like. Accommodating these women's faith tradition in your product line is not only the right thing to do, it just makes good business sense.
