To everyone and to David Hogg especially. I want to deeply apologize for my irresponsible words. I would never in a million years wish or promote violence to anyone anywhere on this planet. After what these kids went though I’m deeply ashamed. Please accept my apology. Frank

For fun, just tally up the poundage of horseshit in this:

Special counsel Robert Mueller was appointed “far too soon” to investigate Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, Sen. Ron Johnson said Sunday.

Johnson, a Wisconsin Republican who chairs the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, said in an interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that he is concerned a special counsel had hindered investigations by Intelligence panels in both the House and Senate.

"What I've always said about it was — the special counsel was named far too soon. I would've much rather had the Senate and House Intelligence Committees complete their report.”

"There, there are completely different goals of a special counsel versus congressional oversight. I think, in this case, the most important thing is public disclosure," Johnson said. "And that is harmed when you start having special counsels, and all the information is, is gathered and is held close and sometimes never disclosed."

Remember how quick Trump was to brag up the soaring stock market?

The study from researchers at Ohio State University finds that fake news probably played a significant role in depressing Hillary Clinton's support on Election Day. The study, which has not been peer reviewed but which may be the first look at how fake news affected voter choices, suggests that about 4 percent of President Barack Obama's 2012 supporters were dissuaded from voting for Clinton in 2016 by belief in fake news stories.
