It’s Wednesday.

The President’s tweets like Tuesday are disjointed once again do to time zones.

Since Tuesday’s tweets the President has tweeted 11 times and re-tweeted 3 times.

Speaking from the Senate floor on Tuesday, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said in part, “now frankly, I don’t believe President Trump will actually go through with tariffs [on Mexico].”

Schumer’s comments regarding President Trump’s tariff threat come around the 4 minute mark of his 10 minute floor speech.

Schumer doubled down on Wednesday speaking again from the Senate floor.

As the News Blender reported on Tuesday, some Senate and House Republicans also oppose the 5 percent blanket tariffs on Mexican imports.

Actress/Singer Bette Midler sent a tweet over the weekend that wrongly quoted President Trump. On Monday she issued an apology for the error.

She sent a follow up tweet on Monday.

Prior to sending this tweet Midler sent this one.

Politico reported that the former Vice President Joe Biden’s campaign came under fire on Tuesday for “Tuesday for putting out a $1.7 trillion climate change plan that appeared to copy a handful of passages from previously published documents.”

In an email a Biden spokesperson said in response to the plagrisim charge, “Several citations, some from sources cited in other parts of the plan, were inadvertently left out of the final version of the 22 page document. As soon as we were made aware of it, we updated to include the proper citations.”

Again with his crowd size.

The Jerusalem Post reported on Tuesday that the First Lady Nechama Rilvlin, the wife of President Reuven Rivlin passed away at the age of 73, just a day before her 74th birthday.

She suffered from pulmonary fibrosis, an interstitial lung disease, her family thanked Beilinson Hospital staff for the, “dedicated, sensitive and professional treatment she received over the last few months, night and day, with a broad and welcoming heart.”

As the News Blender reported on May 29th, Special Counsel Robert Mueller offered his first public statement regarding his Russian Investigation Report.

Near as we can tell, thank you to the Blenders for their help with “especially with his corrective letter,” and Con1 for providing the joint statement via tweet, this is what is being billed as a “corrective letter.”

So would he be up 15 points or 25 points….um.

As noted in response to an earlier President Trump tweet, Republican lawmakers, are in fact “hoping they don’t happen.”

Mexican Officials are meeting with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Wednesday in Washington D.C., where they plan to discuss actions the Mexican Government can take to prevent the 5 percent blanket tariff that increases monthly, with 25 percent blanket tariffs hitting the Mexican imports in October.

This post will be updated within reason. 

This is an Open Thread.
