(Drudge) Trump hits back at London mayor on arrival in UK… (Yahoo News & AFP) President Donald Trump lashed out at London Mayor Sadiq Khan on Monday as he arrived for a three-day state visit to Britain, reviving a long-running enmity between the two. On landing, he sent out a pair of tweets calling Khan a "stone cold loser" for criticising his red carpet treatment, which includes a private lunch and state banquet hosted by Queen Elizabeth II. Khan, "who by all accounts has done a terrible job as Mayor of London, has been foolishly 'nasty' to the visiting president of the United States, by far the most important ally of the United Kingdom" "He is a stone cold loser who should focus on crime in London, not me," Trump wrote, likely referring to a spike in fatal stabbings in the capital which is causing widespread public concern.
The US leader also misspelled Khan's name, writing "Kahn". The two have a long history of bad relations, occasionally clashing on Twitter.
Khan wrote a newspaper article on Sunday in which he compared the US leader to European dictators from the 1930s and 1940s. Khan, a Muslim whose parents arrived in London from Pakistan and who became mayor in 2016, pointed to Trump's "deliberate use of xenophobia, racism and 'otherness' as an electoral tactic" as well as his travel ban efforts on mostly Muslim countries.
In a second tweet, Trump compared Khan to New York York's liberal Mayor Bill de Blasio, with whom he has also clashed, writing that the difference between them was that London's leader was "only half his height".
Khan's spokesman responded that "childish insults" should be "beneath the president of the United States".
(You’d think having a Muslim mayor would be beneath London, ENGLAND! But no… it gets lower!) London is bracing for two major protests on Monday and Tuesday, with organisers planning to fly a blimp of a baby Trump dressed in a diaper, with an angry expression on his face.
Several British opposition leaders and parliament speaker John Bercow have also turned down invitations to attend Monday's banquet with the queen in protests at Trump policies and behaviour. BETA COUNTRY!
(Drudge) Trump also Denies calling Meghan Markle ‘nasty’… (Yahoo News & AFP) President Trump denied on Sunday that he had called Meghan Markle "nasty" just days before heading to Britain to be hosted by other members of the royal family. (He’s going to have lunch with 93-year-old Queen Elizabeth II.) And yet the remark about the American-born Dutchess of Sussex is heard clearly on a tape of a Trump interview with the British tabloid The Sun. Maybe he forgot haha. He tweeted: "I never called Meghan Markle 'nasty.' Made up by the Fake News Media, and they got caught cold! Will @CNN, @nytimes and others apologize? Doubt it!" On the tape, the interviewer points out that Markle, who married the queen's grandson Prince Harry in 2018, had been critical of Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign, saying "she'd move to Canada if you got elected; turned out she moved here." "Well, a lot of people are moving here, so what can I say," Trump replied. "No, I didn't know that she was nasty." But he went on to say "she'll do excellently, she'll be very good, she'll be very good. I hope she does." (She had also called Trump "misogynistic" and "divisive" during the 2016 campaign. She black! [Half black!])
Trump also weighed in on Britain's unending Brexit woes, throwing his weight behind former foreign secretary Boris Johnson to succeed Prime Minister Theresa May and suggesting Britain should leave the European Union without a departure deal if better terms can't be reached.
AND (Drudge) Did Govt Test Internet Kill Switch? OMG, THIS is what happened during church! (Zero Hedge) At (well, about) 3pmET, it appears that Google Cloud (affecting Gmail, YouTube, SnapChat, Instagram, and Facebook among others) mysteriously (and almost unprecedently) went offline. It especially affected the East Coast, but also the West Coast, especially Southern California — and also the UK and western parts Europe!
Users were locked out of 'smart homes'... WHOA. (Fast Company) That major Google outage meant some Nest users couldn’t unlock doors or use the AC. There’s no manual override??

(The Sun) HUMAN TORCH ‘Zombie’ who burned himself to death outside the White House ‘was hallucinating on Spice laced with Angel Dust.’ Police said Arnav Gupta, who died last week at age 33, had taken the drug K2 which had been laced with PCP, according to TMZ. Gupta, from Bethesda, Maryland, had been reported missing by his family about the time he was seen setting himself on fire on a lawn at Ellipse Park near the White House. Eyewitnesses said he looked like a "zombie". He was seen running and then walking and then he was stopped by the time cops & Secret Service put him out. I haven’t heard anything about motive.
(Drudge) India heatwave temperatures pass 123°! DANG! So “global warming” IS real! (Yahoo News & APF) Northern India hit 50.6-degrees Celsius, or 123 Fahrenheit. In May 2016, Phalodi in Rajasthan recorded India's highest-ever temperature of 51 Celsius (123.8 Fahrenheit). Several deaths from heatstroke have already been recorded. Several major cities, led by Chennai, have reported fears of water shortages as lakes and rivers start to dry up. In the western state of Maharashtra, farmers struggled to find water for thirsty animals and crops. More than 40 percent of India faces drought this year, experts warned last month. The annual monsoon -- which normally brings much needed rain to South Asia -- is running a week behind schedule and is only expected to hit India's southern tip on June 6, the weather department said. (Poor Indians, let them come here! j/k)
(Drudge) Despite gov’t warnings, Guatemalans say they won't stop coming… (NY Post) US and Guatemalan governments tried to warn migrants against making the perilous trek, but they’ve never been busier! “Nobody cares what the government does,” said Francisco Gomez, 51, who directs bus traffic in the Cuatro Caminos intersection in SAN CRISTOBAL DE TOTONICAPAN, Guatemala. “The migrants come from everywhere at all hours of the day and night,” Gomez said, keeping his eyes fixed on the zooming buses and taxis and directing passengers loaded with sacks and backpacks into the right vehicles. “It will never stop.”
(Smugglers are known as coyotes or “polleros,” Spanish for chicken farmers or herders.) The polleros charge $3,500 to $13,000 per person to take migrants on what is often a harrowing journey on bus and foot through jungle and desert routes often used by drug gangs, the demand for their services has never been more intense, said a local reporter. “Coyotes live in the local communities, and they don’t need to advertise because people seek them out,” he said. “Everyone knows who they are.”
VIDEO shows: First Large group from AFRICA (this year) wades across Rio Grande… (The American Mirror) A group of illegals from Angola, Cameroon and Congo waded across the Rio Grande River and into the United States, video from Customs and Border Protection shows. 116 individuals! The river — or “natural barrier” — was so shallow, the surface didn’t reach the adults’ waists.
(Hasting Tribune) More are turning to 'La Bestia'... (which means the Beast) — the name migrants use for the notorious freight train running through Mexico toward the U.S.
9-in-10 Aliens Released into the U.S. are Not Showing Up to Court… PREDICTABLE! (Breitbart) DHS has released at least 190,500 border crossers and illegal aliens into the interior of the United States….eventually given work permits for U.S. jobs while awaiting their asylum hearings. But 87 percent of illegal aliens did not show up to their scheduled asylum hearings. ICE has to locate and deport each illegal alien! Only about 12 percent of border crossers and illegal aliens who complete their asylum processes actually end up qualifying for asylum.
Trump administration oversees five-year high in approved citizenship applications… DANG! (Wash. Times) they also swore in more naturalized citizens! AND the gov’t is processing way more asylum seekers than the last 4 years.

(Drudge) YOUTUBE investigating conservative commentator Steven Crowder… (The Hill) Vox host Carlos Maza (who goes by GayWonk on Twitter) accused him of harassment and making derogatory comments about his ethnicity and sexuality. YouTube team tweeted to the liberal: “Thanks so much for outlining all of this–we’re looking into it further. Sending you a DM now.” Maza accused Crowder of "repeated, overt attacks on my sexual orientation and ethnicity." He...called him "an anchor baby" and "a lispy queer." He claimed to be the "target of ridiculous harassment," "it makes life sort of miserable." He told followers to flag Crowder's videos and accused the YouTube of not caring about its LGBT creators. BETA!
Crowder responded with his own video saying, "I’m really hoping that YouTube doesn’t capitulate to a multihundred-million-dollar corporation who've had a long history of advocating corporate censorship... attempting to squash a competitor."
(Drudge) Televangelist unhinged in bizarre interview where he defends using private jets… (Daily Mail) Kenneth Copeland defended his $760M fortune and says he needs to use THREE private jets in an Inside Edition interview, because the, quote, 'demonic environment on commercial flights are not good for a preacher.' Might have a point! The 82-year-old also said he invested $25M in 2018 and says Jewish people 'believe in wealth.' Last year purchased a $3million Gulfstream V private jet from actor Tyler Perry. NICE! LOL! He was dealing with Lisa Guerrero, sometimes pointing forcefully at her, sometimes kissing her hand, and saying he’d pray for her.
(Drudge) With Biden absent, his rivals pounce at California gathering… (AP) 14 presidential contenders were in San Francisco for a three-day gathering of the California Democratic Party, featuring thousands of fervent activists. California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who endorsed Harris, downplayed the importance of Biden’s absence. Meanwhile, Biden spoke to thousands of activists at the far-left radical homosexual group Human Rights Campaign’s Ohio gala Saturday night in Columbus. He noted the Democratic House recently passed the Equality Act, which would enshrine LGBTQ special treatment in U.S. civil rights law.
(Drudge) 2020 contender denounces socialism -- and gets booed… LOL (The Hill) Democratic activists booed former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper (D) on Saturday after he warned party faithful about the perils of embracing socialism and socialist positions ahead of next year's presidential race. "If we want to beat Donald Trump and achieve big progressive goals, socialism is not the answer," Hickenlooper told delegates to the California Democratic Party convention. Some delegates, meeting in perhaps the most liberal city in America, booed. (He white!)
(Drudge) Pelosi met with cries of 'impeach'... (The Hill) during her speech at CA Dem Party’s convention on Saturday.
(Drudge) Taylor Swift Slams Trump for Hypocrisy in LGBTQ Policies… Shut up and sing, woman! (Law and Crime) June 1 kicks off Pride Month, a 30-day celebration to honor LGBTQ people and history, and to commemorate the 1969 Stonewall riots. Taylor Swift tweeted and instagrammed a copy of a letter she sent to Senator Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn), along with a link to a petition for the Democrat House-passed Equality Act, and a message encouraging others to contact their senators. She slammed Trump for opposing the Equality Act for infringing on “parental or conscience rights.” “No,” Swift wrote, “One cannot take the position that one supports a community, while condemning it in the next breath.” Many disgusting major U.S. companies have been lobbying for its passage for several years. BOYCOTT!
Speaking of that... (Drudge & Breitbart) Country Star John Rich (from Big & Rich) Debuted his Song 'Shut Up About Politics'... on The Five on Fox News Thursday…. it was co-written by The Five co-host Greg Gutfeld…. proceeds from the single will go to Folds of Honor, a non-profit that provides scholarships to the family members of disabled and fallen services members. That’s nice.
