The ScaramucciPost is at it again with the very weird polls that Holocaust-deniers seem to just love.

Here’s all the shit we couldn’t cover today:

  • On Friday, two days after a judge required the federal government to grant an unaccompanied immigrant minor in Texas an abortion, a federal appeals court halted the order, delaying her abortion. The girl, identified in court documents as Jane Doe, is 15 weeks pregnant as of Wednesday. Texas law bans abortions after 20 weeks. The court has said the girl has 11 days to find a sponsor; if she is unable to find one, or if HHS does not release her to the sponsor, then the district court may “re-enter”a restraining order or injunction and the government may appeal again.

  • Barack Obama, a distant memory, on Thursday night attempted to lift our spirits at a Virginia rally. “We saw what happened in Charlottesville but we also saw what happened after Charlottesville when the biggest gatherings of all rejected fear and rejected hate and the decency and goodwill of the American people came out,” he said. He also criticized Trump a bit more pointedly than he has in recent months, saying,“But here’s one thing I know: if you have to win a campaign by dividing people, you’re not going to be able to govern them. You won’t be able to unite them later if that’s how you start.” [The Guardian]
  • Donald Trump does not own Renoir’s ‘Two Sisters on the Terrace,’ painting, as he once claimed to reporter Tim O’Brien. The Art Institute of Chicago said they’ve had it since 1933, so whatever Trump owns, it’s not that. [NBC Chicago]
  • Billionaire Democrat donor Tom Steyer is launching a series of TV ads calling to impeach Trump. [NYMag]
  • The Trump-supporting former Navy SEAL Fox News interviewed earlier this month was never in the Navy, it turns out. Fox has retracted the story, saying, “All of Garofalo’s claims turned out to be untrue.” [Washington Post]

So just to begin with the crime figures were for England and Wales, not even the UK as a whole so can’t even get the fucking geography right.

Next let’s talk about how outside of that Trump is still a massive fucktard who, if he had a bath, would still somehow drown even though him getting into said bath would no doubt displace all the water over the sides. This year after four terror attacks the death count stood at 40 (including terrorists). While awful this is nowhere near the dark days of The Troubles, which routinely saw 100+ dying each year due to bombing and sectarian violence.

Now let’s turn our eye to the totally safe US under Trump.

Yeah, America is really fucking safe you Orange Fuckwit.

But let’s be honest, he’s only upset because we’ve cancelled his State Visit because the population of the UK despise him.
