A request by the widower of Lori Klausutis for President Donald Trump to stop using his late wife to promote conspiracy theories for Trump's own agenda has not slowed the President's exploitation of her death to attack one of his critics.

On Wednesday morning, Trump posted another slanderous tweet targeting former Republican Congressman, former Trump supporter and current MSNBC host Joe Scarborough.


Scarborough changed his tune on Trump after the 2016 election. Since then he has been in the President's sights.

On Wednesday Trump tweeted:

"Psycho Joe Scarborough is rattled, not only by his bad ratings but all of the things and facts that are coming out on the internet about opening a Cold Case. He knows what is happening!"

But Republican Senator Mitt Romney decided enough was enough.

He responded to the President's tweet and posted:

"I know Joe Scarborough. Joe is a friend of mine."
"I don't know T.J. Klausutis. Joe can weather vile, baseless accusations but T.J.?"
"His heart is breaking. Enough already."



T.J. Klausutis is the widower of the woman the President continues to exploit for his feud with Scarborough with no regard for her family or her memory. Senator Romney reminded him that Lori Klausutis has a family that are being affected each time Trump decides to use her death as a childish taunt against someone who criticized him.

Romney was not alone in that belief.







While others offered other crimes—with equal credibility as Trump's claims—that should be investigated.




Another Trump lie on Twitter earned a factcheck from Twitter for the first time. It is unclear whether Twitter will step up and factcheck these lies too.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
