I mean, "Trump scandal fatigue" is a real thing, but boy, this is one fucked up story
Their "cover" story (that Trump and Pence were never briefed) is both totally implausible and yet even more scandalous
If Trump was never briefed, then either the entire intelligence apparatus is insanely incompetent, or corrupt, or else they know Trump can't be trusted (not sure which is worse).
Or (1000x more likely) Trump is lying to cover his ass
And he can't tell that the cover story makes him look even worse
TL;DR: Since 2015, Facebook has been hand-crafting their content policies to ensure that Trump never violates them. Zuckerberg also personally consults with Trump to guide his messaging.

BOE701 airborne now, BOE123 on the ground, both in Washington
BOE701 just completed either a low approach or a touch and go and hasn't disappeared off flightradar so I guess that's probably a good sign so far
There is unfortunately no liveatc coverage at the airport they're approaching at otherwise I'd listen in on the 3 general aviation planes and also the 737 test flight in the area

lol oh fuck you huffman
For anyone not in the know, huffman believes the world will eventually collapse, and he'll become a super bad ass leader in the post-apoc society
