By giving his daughter Ivanka an important advisory role in the administration, President Trump has really gone full Monty in wading into the bog of 'conflict of interest'. As if this was not bad enough, the former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn has gently lobbed a bombshell by offering to testify on the collusion between the Russian intelligence and Trump team, in exchange for immunity from prosecution. Boy... this has the potential to blow up in somebody's face and hurt big time.

So, the BJP has appointed a man called Mr. Tajinder Bagga as one of the spokesmen of the party. This third rate person headed a loony bunch called 'Bhagat Kranti Sena', whose chief claim to fame was barging into the office and beefing up one of the most eminent lawyers in the country. This man is known to be abusive towards a lot of women journalists on social media. Of course, he's a blue eyed boy for the establishment because of his shameful (or should I say shameless?) bhakti (sycophancy) of prime minister Modi.

Now that a second revised travel ban put in place by president Trump has been blocked by the courts, where does he go from here? Is it going to wind its way up to the Supreme Court eventually? Clearly, the judges are not convinced with the actual intent of the administration, because of Mr. Trump's past rhetorics. The Federal Courts have made no bones about the fact that the words do matter, and in this instance, Mr. Trump's words spoken in the past is definitely coming back to bite him on the backside.
