PLAGIARISM.

It also means that Melania Trump knew the words she spoke, having spoken them before, were cribbed from Michelle Obama’s speech.”

WATCH WHAT HAPPENS LIVE. Leslie Jones and Kristen Wiig reveal what dead celebrities they want to sleep with.
MAN GROOMING. Is Donald Trump a metrosexual and a manscaper? “Now, witness those eyebrows. They are not waxed. I am just dying to get my tweezer near those bushy unibrows of fake blondness to see what treasure lies beneath. Also does he have even have chest hair? I’m going to bet he does. But what color is it? Unlike President Kennedy and Obama, who do not have chest hair, Donald is typically bundled up in a suit coat. When he goes casual, he sports a polo. So we may never find what lurks beneath. Then again, I just might not want to know, nor do I want to see paparazzi shots of him lounging in Palm Beach.”

TURKEY. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan declares state of emergency for 3 months following failed coupe attempt: “In a late-night televised address, Erdogan, who has been carrying out a large-scale purge of the country’s institutions, sought to reassure the country that the measure – which will be in force for three months – would “protect” democratic freedoms. But the move consolidates more power in the president’s hands, allowing him to rule by decree.”
