Day 3. A man walked out of the dollar store with, among other items, 3 rolls of duct tape. He got into a Dodge Caravan. Co-incidence? I wonder... #notesfromnationalemergencyâ Brad Wietersen (@ImBradMan) February 17, 2019

#NotesFromNationalEmergency Crisis at Mar-a-Lago as the undocumented immigrant who usually does my orangeface didnâÂÂt show up today. Tried by myself but missed a big spot. Felt fat.
