US Politics - Trump cancels summit having to do with North Korea

Scientists say they have discovered why people voted for Donald Trump and Brexit.
Psychologists and political scientists at the universities of Kent, Warsaw and Maryland say voters are more likely to opt fro populist ideologies when they feel disadvantaged.
These could be ideas that speak to the average person, such as those promised by the US president and campaigners who want the UK to leave the European Union.

That's not exactly rocket science. Same thing happens time and time again.

First charges filed in Mueller investigation

A federal grand jury in Washington, DC, on Friday approved the first charges in the investigation led by special counsel Robert Mueller, according to sources briefed on the matter.

The charges are still sealed under orders from a federal judge. Plans were prepared Friday for anyone charged to be taken into custody as soon as Monday, the sources said. It is unclear what the charges are.

A spokesman for the special counsel's office declined to comment.

Mueller was appointed in May to lead the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election.

Under the regulations governing special counsel investigations, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who has oversight over the Russia investigation, would have been made aware of any charges before they were taken before the grand jury for approval, according to people familiar with the matter.

With this news I wonder if we are going to get a weekend of twitter meltdowns or better yet, Donny is going to do something utterly outlandish and start firing people.
