Michael Flynn Stops Sharing With Trump's Team, Now Cooperating With Mueller

Michael Flynn has been in hot water ever since the infancy of the Donald Trump administration when he was national security advisor for just over three weeks. Now, his son has been dragged into the whole Russia scandal that has been under strict investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller, and this could pose some potentially devastating consequences for both Flynns.

Now, according to breaking news from the New York Times, Michael Flynn and his lawyers have announced that they have ended their cooperation with Donald Trump and his legal team. Although there could be a variety of reasons for this, all signs indicate that Michael Flynn intends to cooperate with Robert Mueller in the Russia investigation in ways that could adversely affect Donald Trump and his administration.

Trump Approval Rating Still Lowest In Last 70 Years, But Slightly Ticked Up Following Statement On Roy Moore

The latest data on President Donald Trump’s approval rating shows that he is still the least popular president of the last seven decades or so by a healthy margin. A further look at the numbers, however, suggests that this metric had slightly gone up in the two days since the president issued his official statement on the sexual harassment allegations made against Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore.

Since Donald Trump first took office in January, FiveThirtyEight has been monitoring the president’s approval and disapproval ratings, tracking them from day one up to the present and comparing them against the ratings of 12 past U.S. presidents, chronologically starting with Harry Truman and ending with Barack Obama. As of today’s Thanksgiving update, Trump’s approval rating is at 38.4 percent, holding steady from yesterday’s figure, but 0.3 percent higher than it was on November 19 and 20, when the rating was at 38.1 percent.

Olympic Blade Runner Oscar Pistorius Prison Sentence Increased From Six to Thirteen Years For Murder Of Reeva Steenkamp

South African Olympic Blade Runner Oscar Pistorius will now serve 13 years and five months for the murder of his model and law graduate girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp. The South African Supreme Court of Appeal decided that the initial prison sentence of six years be lengthened to 13 years, which is more in line with the prescribed minimum sentence of 15 years for murder.

According to eNCA legal journalist Karyn Maughan’s Twitter feed, the Supreme Court of Appeal stated that there were “no compelling reasons” for Judge Masipa to deliver a sentence of less than 15 years for Oscar Pistorius murdering Reeva Steenkamp. In fact, the Appeal Court labeled the six-year sentence originally handed down by the judge as “shockingly lenient.”

Trump North Korea Cuba Russia

President Donald Trump’s enmity towards North Korea has been widely reported. Trump uses his social media accounts to condemn and threaten North Korea on a regular basis. The North Korean regime has responded by threatening to launch a nuclear attack against the United States, and by calling Trump a “madman,” a “dotard,” and a “barking dog.” Those who follow Trump’s foreign policy will also have noticed that he has also pulled back from the fragile restoration of diplomatic relations with Cuba put in place by President Obama.

According to a report by the Independent, President Trump’s policy towards both North Korea and Cuba has resulted in the two communist regimes forming an alliance against Trump. Cuban and North Korean diplomats have been meeting in Havana, and they sent out a stark message to Donald Trump.

Trump Approval Rating Makes Him Least Popular President As He Tweets Of Golf With Tiger Woods, Dustin Johnson

President Donald Trump is experiencing an approval rating so low that it has sunk below that of reviled former presidents like Richard M. Nixon, who was embroiled in the Watergate scandal. Negative reports from a variety of sources continue to dog Trump, such as when Billy Baldwin took to Twitter on Thanksgiving Day to accuse Trump of hitting on his wife, Chynna Phillips, claiming that Trump crashed Chynna’s birthday party at the Plaza Hotel years ago and attempted to get Chynna to leave on his helicopter to Atlantic City, as reported by the Inquisitr.

Charles Manson

The sole benefactor of Charles Manson’s will is his pen pal, according to TMZ. The pen pal started writing Manson in the ’90s, exchanging letters and phone calls for two decades. The pen pal reportedly visited Manson in prison occasionally.

TMZ got a copy of the will drafted by Manson, which includes some handwriting. The handwriting seems similar to Charles Manson’s handwriting. The will is dated February 14, 2002, and it leaves all of Charles Manson’s belongings, including cash, image rights, and clothing to his pen pal. Manson’s belongings also include an exclusive music catalog and songs he wrote.

The will says Charles Manson’s body should be handed over to his pen pal. The body of Manson will be cremated at the Union Cemetery in Bakersfield if the pen pal does not claim the body after 10 days. Manson apparently disinherited his known children, ex-wives, lawyers, friends, prisoners, inmates, cops, guards, and acquaintances.

Egypt is ravaged by a terror attack killing more than 230 people.

More than 230 people were killed after suspected militants groups targeted a Mosque with bombs and gunfire in Bir Al-Abed, in the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt during local Friday prayers. Egyptian media predicts that these numbers will still add up in the coming hours as the search and rescue operation ensues after the deadliest terror attack in the country’s recent memory.

According to BBC, it is the deadliest attack of its kind since an Islamist insurgency in the peninsula was stepped up in 2013.

Egyptian President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi called an urgent meeting of the Security Committee, which includes the ministers of defense and interior and the head of the General Intelligence Service vowing to respond with “brute force.”

State media reports that gunmen have surrounded the Al-Rawdah Mosque in off-road vehicles, set off the bomb in the packed Mosque where a ceremony was being held, then gunned down panicked survivors as they tried to flee the vicinity.

Trump called out Greg Sargent on Twitter

Donald Trump used the solemnity and propriety of Thanksgiving Day to send out a tweet publicly calling out reporter Greg Sargent, who had the audacity to call the president a racist, Slate is reporting.

There are several things that Donald Trump just doesn’t seem to get, but the top two are probably these: propriety and dignity. Throughout his campaign and presidency, he’s made it clear that he is not above saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. And of course, it’s no secret that he always enjoys using his office not from a place of dignity and professionalism, but as a bully pulpit to target his enemies. Even if — especially if — those enemies are regular people and not political enemies.

church of sweden gender neutral god

After an eight-day meeting that concluded on Thursday 23 November, the Church of Sweden has decided to refrain from using terms such as “he” and “Lord” to refer to the supreme deity. Instead, its clergy, as well as its members, are now encouraged and obliged to use less specific and gender-neutral terms, The Guardian reports.

The Church of Sweden, an Evangelical Lutheran national church, is the largest Christian denomination in Sweden and the third-largest Lutheran denomination in the world. With over 6 million baptized members, this is, by a large margin, the largest church in Sweden, a country with the population of 10 million. The Church of Sweden has a 251-member decision-making body, so the decision to proclaim the supreme being gender neutral was well-thought out, planned, and voted on.

Former first daughter Malia Obama has found some support from other first daughters. Ivanka Trump and Chelsea Clinton may not agree on much, but they both know what it’s like to live in the spotlight and have rushed to Barack and Michelle Obama’s 19-year-old daughter’s defense as she comes under harsh scrutiny for her life at Harvard University.

Obama has received a lot of attention recently. Videos and photos have come out of Obama blowing smoke rings (via the Daily Caller) in a bathroom and kissing someone (via TMZ) while tailgating at the Harvard-Yale football game.

There’s an unspoken rule that children of the president, or former president in Obama’s case, should be left alone and given privacy. But Obama has had to live under the public eye for years, and her behavior is constantly scrutinized and she’s always followed around.

Donald Trump Explains Why He Turned Down Chance To Be 'Time' Person Of The Year Again

Last year, President Donald Trump was named by Time magazine as its “Person of the Year,” right after he had surprisingly won the 2016 U.S. presidential elections over his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton. And it looks like he might have had a chance to win the honor for a second straight year had he not turned down the offer, as suggested by a tweet sent out by the president on Friday evening.

As it seems, Trump’s decision to refuse Time’s Person of the Year opportunity boiled down to the lack of certainty behind the offer, as well as the publication’s requirements that the president sit down for an interview and photo shoot.

“I said probably is no good and took a pass. Thanks anyway!”

According to Trump, he almost got the honor again, but says he turned down the magazine after being told he would have to give an interview as well.

He tweeted: “Time Magazine called to say that I was PROBABLY going to be named ‘Man (Person) of the Year,’ like last year, but I would have to agree to an interview and a major photo shoot. I said probably is no good and took a pass. Thanks anyway!”
