Internet's going crazy because he said the same line Bane used in The Dark Knight Rises. It seems like a pretty common line, but with Trump and his speechwriters who knows. A lot of speech/presidential experts are noting his speech was a lot like his campaign speeches, which were directed towards his audience and supporters and not really anything unifying. I thought it was pretty nondescript. For some reason, I had more interest this time around than past ones and really appreciate the transfer of power that's so important. Maybe it's because of the way the campaign was and all the elements and things that took place. It is quite...impressive.

That's a funny gif, even though it's likely not what you think it is.

A semi-related note, could the body language between Trump and Melania be any colder?

I check out a lot of different news sources and came across this article titled "An Open Letter to Donald Trump - Part I" from the Russian paper Pravda. I didn't read all of it yet because it was so long winded. Interesting, they go into the Kennedy assasination and all kinds of things. Kind of bizarre.

Now he has announced that he will not ever be releasing his tax returns. Of course.

The Trump campaign/administration lies so often that they came up with their own term for it. Now instead of lying they are offering "Alt Facts".

I wish the Suns could take back the trade that they did to get Knight and send away the Laker's pick with "Alt trade".
