Robert De Niro Hollywood Wit
Robert De Niro is a wit sandwich.
He was preceded in wit recently by Sammantha Bee. She called Ivanka a feckless c__t. And he was followed by Peter Fonda’s plea for Barron Trump to be kidnapped by pedophiles.

But on the Radio City Music Hall stage for the Tony Awards, De Niro offered a simpler call to political action. F__k Trump.
And he got a standing ovation.
No FBI Bias Here
Inspector General Michael Horowitz looked into the FBI investigation of Hilary Clinton’s email server. He released his report on Friday and testified before the House Judiciary Committee yesterday.
Some of his more interesting findings included text messages from lead FBI agent Peter Strzok. He referred to Hillary as the “future prez.” Strzok also said he would “stop Trump.” Still, the IG found no FBI bias in the investigation results.

Here’s Trey Gowdy asking how Jim Comey could draft an exonerating press release six weeks before the FBI’s interview with Hillary took place.
If you’ve got some time on your hands watch the entire I.G. hearing here on C Span:
Church and Chick-fil-A
We all know you can indict a ham sandwich. But the CEO of Twitter got busted by the culture cops for buying a chicken sandwich.
Jack Dorsey bragged in a tweet that he got a 10% discount using a Chick-fil-A app. But Soledad O’Brien wasn’t impressed. She tweeted, “This is an interesting company to boost during Pride month, Jack.”
Church and Chick-fil-A
The owner of Chick-fil-A opposes same sex marriage. And, apparently, an American eating at Chick-fil-A during Gay Pride month is the moral equivalent of a Saudi noshing a BLT during Ramadan.
So Dorsey tweeted his apology – “You’re right. Completely forgot about their background.”
Norms Have Changed
In a PBS interview Bill Clinton pined for the old days. He griped that norms have changed. And you can’t have your way with people against their will anymore.
Norms
Well, as Jimmy Carter used to say, “life ain’t fair.”
Trudeau Drives Trump Bonkers
A Justin Trudeau press conference seemed to drive President Trump bonkers. The Canadian Prime Minister spoke as Trump boarded Air Force One following the G7 meeting in Quebec. The president called Trudeau dishonest and weak. Strong words for the head of state of your best ally. Trump trade warrior in chief, Peter Navarro. then piled on saying there’s a special place in Hell for Trudeau. is it hot enough there to make your eyebrows fall off?
