- So, what happened this week? Donald Trump was rebuked by the VFW, President Obama tried to rewrite history, the Obama administration tried to explain away a $400 million ransom paid to Iran, the media continued to fawn over Hillary Clinton, and gun grabbers were very upset about Ginny Thrasher winning a gold medal.
- Other stuff happened too, but it either wasn't very interesting or I was just too busy wishing that this election wasn't such a slow-motion car wreck to notice. Without further ado, here are my picks for best tweets of the week:
- Woman brings home first gold medal. Liberal chastise her because it was for shooting. Because they are pro-women.
