There was another assassination attempt on Trump yesterday. A guy was hiding in the bushes at one of his golf courses, a few holes ahead of where he was. The Secret Service engaged, the guy fled and was caught later ( Read more... )

The weather has been perfect the last couple days. The nights are cool and promote deep sleep. The mornings are not too cold.
