I just self-deleted the Mrs, Betty Bowers "London protests" thread.
I had no way of knowing...especially since it was labeled as "London today"...that the BBC video was from 2018.
Didn't feel right about letting the thread stand, even though multiple DUers clarified the video source.
I go to great lengths to post things here that are accurate, but if I'm made aware of the fact that they aren't, I remove them.

Queen Elizabeth gifts Trump a book by Winston Churchill on WWII that he will...never...read.
LONDON (Reuters) - Queen Elizabeth gifted Donald Trump a book by Winston Churchill on World War Two whilst Melania received a specially commissioned silver box with enamel lid during the visit by the President and First Lady of the United States to Britain.
The book written by the former prime minister Winston Churchill, who led Britain during the conflict, is crimson with gold-tooled decoration to the outer cover.
Trump will commemorate the 75th anniversary of the World War Two D-Day landings during his three-day stay and has already been treated to a display of British royal pageantry during a banquet on Monday.
The Trumps brought the Queen a Tiffany & Co. silver and silk poppy brooch in a custom White House wood jewelry box whilst her husband Philip received a personalized Air Force One Jacket and first-edition signed autobiography by former U.S. General James Doolittle.

Republicans discussing measure to block Trump's Mexico tariffs
Being discussed on Morning Joe. Right now, it's backchatter. No names attached to it, no definite intention or date for implementation. Just a number of "concerned" Republicans who don't "heart" the tariffs.

Trump calls for the MAGAts to boycott AT&T, in order to muzzle "dying, bad fake news" CNN.

I believe that if people stoped using or subscribing to @ATT, they would be forced to make big changes at @CNN, which is dying in the ratings anyway. It is so unfair with such bad, Fake News! Why wouldnt they act. When the World watches @CNN, it gets a false picture of USA. Sad!
