More analysis about the North Korea agreement keeps coming out, and it should be no surprise that it boils down to a view that not much substantive has changed apart from the rhetoric.
On the Alien Children detention, it has come out that there is a formal challenge to the twenty day rule, based on the wording of the ruling that says there should be no "unnecessary delay." The challenge claims that extended detention is now "necessary."
An interesting fact check also appeared, regarding a bill that was voted on (and failed), where Trump now claims (on a tweet dated June 30th) he said they shouldn't bother to have voted, which contradicts a statement made 3 days ago (on June 27th) This factoid opens up the interesting question of whether Trump's cognitive sense doesn't really keep track of what he says, or whether he is aware of his contradictions. That also leads to the question of which scenario is better...
