Takei...

@GeorgeTakei

Curious how news of a possible informant caused Trump's protestations to go from "BIGGEST WITCH HUNT!!" to "IT'S A SET UP!!" In other words, this has morphed from "I did nothing wrong!" to "I was entrapped!"--because he likely DID do something wrong, and someone has the receipts.

They frequently honor people, calling them "living legends" for the significance of their life's work or art. Does anyone know if Japan has so honored George Takei ??

Order of the Rising Sun, Gold Rays with Rosette. I don't think that's the same thing, but at least Japan honors him.
