Day 86: North Korea Fizzles

A reasonably quiet Saturday. The fireworks out of North Korea fizzled out.

• North Korea had their usual military procession, and everything seemed to be ok. And then it decided to launch a missile, which was a dismal failure and exploded almost immediately. I've read that the model of the missile is literally "No Dong". Kind of appropriate. (Another analysis)
• Trump demands a gold carriage procession for his visit to the UK. This is downright disgusting for anybody to demand something like that.
• Trump's appointees have a raft of conflicts of interest, and no transparency. Furthermore, he's already repeatedly breaking his own (relaxed) ethics rules, with secretive waivers. This fucking administration...
• Today was the "Trump tax march". There are amazing pictures of Trump chickens in this article. That is all.
