It is no coincidence Trump & his allies are targeting 60 Minutes. Not only is this is a deliberate effort to weaken a free press, they also know independent reporting reaches audiences beyond their political base — which is why they work so hard to discredit them.
“In this country, we have no ‘other people.’ We are American people, all of us.”

My grandfather never told war stories (apart from fun ones, like the time he and the guys liberated a crate of scotch from the British officer's club while in England).

Few illustrators captured the of the English countryside as beautifully as Jill Barklem (1951–2017). Born in Epping, Essex, Barklem studied illustration at St. Martin's School of Art and spent years researching local flora and fauna before creating her masterpiece: Brambly Hedge.
Children love to pore over her intricately detailed watercolor illustrations, which depict beautifully the homes of mice and voles inside trees and burrows throughout the seasons. The books have sold more than 7 million copies worldwide and remain beloved classics.

But I really did this tweet to show you that @GovPressOffice has much better social media content than you do.
Cheers!
Tom Nichols: He's determined to leave his mark here by kind of embedding or just covering the city in this kind of Walmart Liberace design ethos that he has... It's also a sign of his mental and emotional state that this is what he thinks about all day, and not about the job of being the president of the United States.
