I can't wait for Trump's executive order re: campus free speech.

The Fuck Trump Music/Dance/Improv Comedy Troupe is champing at the bit, looking at a lucrative tour on the campus circuit -- and they'll have to take us.

A reductio ad absurdum about investigations of the POTUS.

Imagine there's a POTUS who has substantial support of his/her party but who is suspected of committing nefarious acts. A special counsel is appointed who then investigates and finds that there is evidence proving, not just beyond a reasonable doubt, but beyond any shadow of a doubt that this hypothetical POTUS has murdered several children by his own hand. According to Justice Department guidelines, results of investigations that do not produce indictments are not released -- but guidelines also say the POTUS can't be indicted for anything.

The report is not released. In the absence of hard evidence, the POTUS's party continues to support him/her and impeachment doesn't happen.

Does this make any sense?
