Breaking from Australia – In newly released documents from Australia, the New South Wales police board recommended against a bid by a Trump partnership to build a casino in Sydney due to his mafia connections.  The documents, made public today, quoted the police board as saying a casino owned and run by the Trump partnership would “be dangerous”.

One more drip in a thousand drips becoming a tsunami.

The Twitter Machine catches this one from Newt Gingrich.

I swear to all that is sparkling, Newt Gingrich is bean dip dumb.

Look, it ain’t brain surgery or even Vatican Ambassadorship smart. Trump is not accused of committing any crimes in West Virginia. If he ever is, there will be a grand jury there.

I got a speeding ticket in Bastrop once and that’s where it went to trial, even though I have far more friends in Del Rio.  Whine, whine, whine.

Soon enough, a grand jury may be empaneled in New York for Trump’s financial crimes, where Trump only got 36% of the vote.  I’m sure Newt will whine that it should be empaneled in Alabama where Trump got 63% of the vote, except that they couldn’t find 12 people in Alabama who know how a checking account works.

West Virginia?  Hell, let’s just move it to Mar-a-Loco so Newt will think it’s fair.

Does this remind you of anyone we both know?

Once the transcripts of the phone conversation between Trump and Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto were leaked, things got really weird.

The transcript shows that Trump admitted he knew damn well that Mexico was not going to pay for the wall and that he couldn’t make them.  So he whined to Peña Nieto.

Trump pleaded with Peña Nieto to not say publicly that Mexico wouldn’t pay.

“Believe it or not, this is the least important thing that we are talking about,” Trump said, “but politically this might be the most important talk about.”

Peña Nieto insists he will continue to firmly say Mexico will not pay for the wall: “But my position has been and will continue to be very firm saying that Mexico cannot pay for that wall.”

Trump responds: “But you cannot say that to the press. The press is going to go with that and I cannot live with that.”

“He’s the opposite of Teddy Roosevelt,” that official quipped to Guajardo about Trump. “He speaks loudly and carries a small stick.”

A Sports Illustrated senior staff writer, Alan Shipnuck, wrote that Donald Trump told people that the “White House is a dump.”

Trump, of course, denies saying it as he denies saying anything, ever, in his whole life, which is the best life ever.

Shipnuck responds …

My money is bet on the fact that he said it.  One reason why?  This is a house he owns that he just put on the market.

Look, I have often said that my favorite color is shiny, but it’s a joke. A joke that Donald Trump doesn’t “get.”

If the White House is a dump, this is why.

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.

Okay, so a funny guy in England decided to show us the level of intelligence in our White House.  He pranked emailed just about everyone and they all fell for it including the dude in charge of cyber-security.

The only one who caught onto it was Eric Trump, making him – oh dear God – the smartest guy in the Trump White House.

The exchange between a fake Spicer and a real Mooch is particularly fun to read.
