    Today's media retraction, regarding Trump:

    Vice Media’s Motherboard tech site has retracted two articles — supposedly revealing discord at Disney Parks about Donald Trump’s presence in the Hall of Presidents attraction — citing factual errors and questions about sourcing for the pieces.

    “After a thorough investigation into the sourcing of two stories, ‘Here’s the Secret Backstage Trump Drama at Walt Disney World’s Hall of Presidents’ and ‘Behind the Scenes of Disney’s Donald Trump “Hall of Presidents” Installation,’ and the identification of several factual errors, we have decided to retract both pieces,” Motherboard said in an editorial note posted Wednesday in place of the two articles.

    The note added, “We are conducting a full editorial review to pinpoint how this source was vetted, and how these stories were approved and published in violation of our usual editorial workflow. We fell short of our standards, and regret the error.”

    ASTONISHING this sudden microattention to possible source discrepancies in negative stories about Fucko (even ridiculously obscure ones like this) and the sudden abject (and possibly wildly overreactionary) preemptive capitulation by the publishers. Almost as if they've been informed they need to be Very Very Careful.

    VERY CAREFUL.

    Anyway, Trump promising a "big surprise" on the health care bill. Which we all know in Trumpspeak means, "I got nothing."
