It's over by the cigarettes.
Morning, Wonketariat! There's some shit that went down over night, so grab your caffeinated beverages because we've got some serious stuff to talk about. Here's just some of the things we may be talking about today!
Jeff Sessions met with representatives of Moscow and Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak on at least two occasions (making him a racist AND a terrible liar -- under oath ) and there's a growing bipartisan call to lynch what's left of his political career from all around Washington.
The Obama administration left a trail of super secret spy crumbs about Trump and his surrogates' meetings with Russia throughout the maze of U.S. bureaucracy so Trump and his minions couldn't hide the dastardly schemes they SWEAR they didn't commit. THANKS OBAMA!
Jeff Sessions MIGHT recuse himself from any investigations into the Trump campaigns ties with Russia, but only if he really, really has to since he DEFINITELY didn'tlie under oathduring his confirmation hearing (twice).
Mike Pence has no plans to meet with Vladimir Putin. I CAN'T IMAGINE WHY!

The Netherlands Party for Animals is giving the Dutch Donald Trump a run for his money and may potentially gain a number seats in the Dutch Parliament. Hurray, animals!
Some humping, Bible thumping, and gay bashing good ol' boys in Texas have convinced the Texas Supreme Court to reconsider giving benefits to same-sex couples employed by the state on the grounds that it's, "perfectly constitutional for the government to offer benefits or subsidies to some married couples while withholding those benefits from others." Bless y'all hearts.
A Dreamer was arrested by ICE agents shortly after speaking at a rally in support of DACA in Jackson, Mississippi, most likely with the hope that if all unemployed collegiate hipsters are deported, no one will be left to protest.
Republicans in at least 16 states are considering laws that would limit your ability to protest in a attempt to stop those filthy hippy liberal commies from setting up their political grievance taco truck stops.
One of the biggest questions among Washington politicos is whether or not Donald Trump will kill the Easter Bunny and the White House Easter Egg Roll.
