1/ Trump scolded Al Franken on Twitter for his sexual misconduct. "The Al Frankenstien picture is really bad, speaks a thousand words," Trump tweeted, adding that last week Franken was "lecturing anyone who would listen about sexual harassment and respect for women." During Trump's presidential campaign, 11 women accused him of unwanted touching or kissing over several decades. Trump called the allegations "pure fiction" and "fake news" and referred to the women as "horrible, horrible liars." Sarah Huckabee Sanders said the White House position is that the women who have accused Trump of sexual harassment are lying. Franken, meanwhile, apologized for his behavior and encouraged a Senate Ethics Committee review of his actions. (Washington Post)

Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak said he won’t name all the Trump officials he’s met with because "the list is so long"

WTF?! How is this real life, anymore?

I mean, Russia has mastered the art of the troll, so don’t necessarily take anything he says at face value. But still, there has to be some truth to it.
