The woman standing next to Melania in the lovely light blue (seriously, that color is TERRIFIC) has the best look on her face. Like, “I have to stand next to her??”

Bwahahahaha!!!!!

She is perfectly welcome to smile all she likes. But do not let that cloud your memory of the fact that she is a garbage person married to a garbage person and costing the taxpayers tens of millions of dollars a week because she refuses to move D.C. If you ever get cancer, never forget that the money they are spending…

The Belgian couple for example isn’t married, some just have different names. Likely someone was just too lazy to check which are actually married and which aren’t.

My mom is in politics and her campaign manager always advised her to leave my step-dada as out of view as possible. Apparently there are studies that show that men in power who have a wife close by them physically seem more trust-worthy and full of values, etc but women in power who have a husband close-by seem weak…

Why is Melania wearing an off the shoulder cocktail dress? Weird

Wikipedia tells me he’s the third - first openly gay leader of government was Jóhanna Sigurðardóttir of Iceland in 2009 and second was Elio Di Rupo of Belgium in 2011.

He’s not on anyone’s side. He has a (somewhat well-deserved) image as a man of integrity. Unfortunately, like many so-called men of integrity, he bought into that hype about himself, and let his self-image as a man of integrity overwhelm his decision making process. So in order to protect his self-styled image, he…

And by “other factors” he means Rudy Giuliani. Keep watching - he’s the one who orchestrated this.

So I’m at a loss here. Does Comey just want to fuck over everyone or what? Who’s side is he on?

I’m pretty sure her “team” including her security whisked her away to safety, so even if she wanted to she probably couldn’t do anything directly. I don’t have any problem with that or with this benefit concert.

No one asked her to go. Ariana is simply giving a benefit concert. What is the big deal

I do not think that she is trying to force them to go, but is raising money for them. Not to mention the whole “not letting the terrorists silence us” thing...

Plus I hope she doesn’t blame herself. She has handled this tragedy angelically.

Yup. I can’t even imagine how she feels right now. I personally think it’s an incredibly kind and generous thing for her to do.

I was genuinely moved by her first tweet. It seemed heartfelt and not overly crafted. Good for her for following it up with concrete action.

I’d imagine that many people who weren’t there but live/work/play in the area are struggling to make sense of this. I like the idea of reclaiming a concert in the city and showing they aren’t afraid

I don’t think you have to put the blame on her to not want to go to another one of her concerts. I’m not sure I’d want to go just out of fear of another terrorist attack.

Like it’s her fault? And also, she is doing it to raise money. Hypothetically you wouldn’t have to go. Others would in support of your hypothetical daughter

Perfect response, perfectly timed. It’s going down well in the UK.
