Here are highlights from Stage 19 of the Giro d'Italia. Why is Chris Froome, who is under a cloud of suspicion for cheating, allowed to race? Sometimes I wonder why I bother to follow professional cycling.

I read with great disdain that President Donald Trump ordered commemorative coins regarding his proposed (now canceled) meeting with North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong Un.
He is using American citizens’ dime to produce coins with his image on them. Apparently, Caesar lives. Remember what happened to the Roman Empire.

Democrats are so obviously rooting against us in our negotiations with North Korea. Just like they are coming to the defense of MS 13 thugs, saying that they are individuals & must be nurtured, or asking to end your big Tax Cuts & raise your taxes instead. Dems have lost touch!

Much of the world was transfixed last weekend by the royal wedding in Windsor, England. The pageantry, scenery, music, flowers, up-tempo sermon by the U.S. Episcopal bishop, the ubiquitous ladies’ hats and so much more were such a wonderful, welcoming, uplifting change in daily life.
Maybe the greatest joy of all was the almost total absence or silence of tweets, headlines in newspapers and stories on television of or about the principal occupant of the White House.
Hats off and hip, hip, hurrah to the British royal family!

Not surprisingly, the GREAT Men & Women of the FBI are starting to speak out against Comey, McCabe and all of the political corruption and poor leadership found within the top ranks of the FBI. Comey was a terrible and corrupt leader who inflicted great pain on the FBI! #SPYGATE
