Obligatory video:
Sometime in the future, the ex-Presidents will have to appear with the present one...
Can you imagine any of the living ex-Presidents appearing with the orange shitgibbon? Think about it...
- Obama? After the wiretapping accusations?
- Shrub and Poppy Bush? After what happened to Jeb in the primaries?
- Big Dog? After the debate in which Twitler brought all the women who accused Clinton of sexual misconduct?
- Jimmy? Too much class to allow himself near the fuckmuppet.
Think of the awkwardness should the ex's show up... 
Fareed Zakaria: Trump 'indifferent to things that are true or false'
(CNN)Fareed Zakaria ripped into President Donald Trump on Friday, accusing him of "bulls**tting" his way to the presidency.
The charge followed Zakaria's infamous attack during the presidential election, when he called then candidate Trump a "bulls**t artist."
"I got into trouble during the campaign saying something about the President which I still think is true," Zakaria told Don Lemon on "CNN Tonight." "I think the President is somewhat indifferent to things that are true or false."

"He has spent his whole life bulls**tting," Zakaria said. "He has succeeded by bulls**tting. He has gotten the presidency by bulls**tting. It's very hard to tell somebody at that point that bulls**t doesn't work. Because look at the results. He sees something, he doesn't particularly care if it's true or not, he just put it out there."

(CNN)A man carrying a backpack was arrested Friday night after breaching security at the White House complex and was discovered by a Secret Service officer by the south entrance to the executive residence, officials said.
The incident happened just before midnight while President Donald Trump was at the White House.
A Secret Service source said the intruder might have entered the White House grounds on the east side before making his way near the residence's south portico entrance.
The White House was placed under security condition "orange," one of the highest levels of security for the Secret Service.
The suspect was arrested by the Secret Service and taken into custody.
The President was spending the weekend in Washington and was alerted to the incident late Friday night, an administration official said.

Boy finds WWII plane with pilot's remains in cockpit
(CNN)A 14-year-old Danish boy doing research for a history class found the wreckage of a German World War II plane with the remains of the pilot in the cockpit.
Daniel Kristiansen and his father, Klaus, discovered what's believed to be a Messerschmitt fighter plane buried in a field on their farm near Birkelse in northern Denmark.
"We went out to the field with a metal detector," Klaus Kristiansen told CNN. "I hoped we might find some old plates or something for Daniel to show in school."
Instead, they found bits of plane debris. So they borrowed an excavator from a neighbor and dug down seven or eight meters.
"At first we were digging up a lot of dirt with metal fragments in it. Then we suddenly came across bones and pieces of clothes," Kristiansen said. "It was like opening a book from yesterday."

US suspends expedited processing of H-1B visas
Source: CNN.com
(CNN)The US is temporarily suspending expedited processing of H-1B visas, eliminating the option of shorter wait times for the program that helps highly skilled foreigners work at US companies.
Under the current system, companies submitting applications for H-1B visas for potential employers can pay extra for expedited processing, which is referred to as premium processing.
Premium processing costs an additional $1,225 and ensures a response from the US Citizenship and Immigration Services in 15 days or the fee is refunded. Standard H-1B applications -- those that are not premium -- take between three to six months.
Indian official says H1B visas bolster jobs
The suspension is effective April 3, and could last up to six months, according to USCIS.
