Donald Trump sued his rival in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, Hillary Clinton, and several other Democrats, alleging that they tried to rig that election by tying his campaign to Russia
Now Trump always knows what to do
And what he knows is: always sue
And so this is why
Half of the FBI
Must explain if his ravings are true

This afternoon.
The Irish Independent understands a message was sent to journalists highlighting two incidents of concern in recent days.
Two “suspicious packages” were delivered to RTÉ offices in Waterford and Cork.
“The packages are letter sized envelopes containing a piece of card with a SD card sellotaped on to the card.
“This could be someone trying to send a malicious virus into the organisation on hope that someone will insert the card into a RTÉ device,” the warning to staff said.
Old school.
Respect.

Nolan Live on BBC 1 Northern Ireland.
Nolan Live reporter David Thompson writes:
“Graham Linehan says that he’s been been “cancelled” because of his views on sex and gender issues. In a rare TV interview – rare because he says no-one will touch him now – Graham says his life has been destroyed. He says celebrity friends refused to sign a letter condemning death and rape threats against J.K Rowling – someone who he says has been labelled a bigot without any evidence being presented to that end.
“He says he’s lost his marriage – his plans for a Father Ted musical have been scrapped unless he steps away – and that comedians live under a constant threat of blackmail about ‘crossing a line’ on certain issues.”
