Hey gang - if any of you are going to be in DC and attending the FFOTUS imperial march on June 14.
Remember, try to gather, early (so you get into the front row) across from the viewing stand (which will probably be on the south end of the white house lawn).
I recommend that when FFOTUS appears that you give him a full Braveheart mooning.
You can wear underwear - and I suggest that on the left side it has the letters "T A" and on the right "C O".

Ex-Trump lawyer Emil Bove, a top Justice Department official, is picked to be federal judge
President Donald Trump says he's nominating his former criminal defense lawyer Emil Bove to become a federal appeals court judge.

Has anyone yet tied FFOTUS' "golden dome" to the scene in Game of Thrones where the prince is given a golden crown?
