Q said they all lawyered up, maybe his put him on a gag order for now. That's a good thing.
He probably has a secret twatter so he can respond fast on POTUS tweets then.
Almost time for Q to drop like they've done the last couple of days between 11-11:30 ET.
POTUS at Camp David this weekend sure is tweeting allot today.
Wonder what they have going on?

Thinking the Dems are getting ready to replace Biden with Bernie?
A top political adviser to Sen. Bernie Sanders is warning that “a significant portion” of the Vermont senator's supporters are “currently unsupportive” of presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.
Jeff Weaver – who managed Sanders’ 2016 campaign and served as senior adviser on his now-suspended 2020 White House bid – cautioned, “The Bernie Sanders base makes up a sizeable group of voters that could have a profound impact in the outcome of the election.”
Weaver raised the red flags in a four-page document issued by his newly formed "America’s Promise" super PAC that was first reported by NBC News and confirmed by Fox News.
“There is a real and urgent need to help Biden consolidate Sanders supporters,” Weaver said. “If all of Sanders’ base turned out for Joe Biden in November, he could defeat Trump and take back the White House for Democrats. Here’s the problem: significant portions don’t currently plan to.”
He said these supporters of Sanders are “currently unsupportive and unenthusiastic” about Biden.
Sanders ended his White House bid last month and a week later endorsed the former vice president. And this week Biden and Sanders unveiled six task forces that aim to find common ground between the two camps on key policy issues. But some Sanders supporters have resisted embracing the more moderate Biden.
Biden, Sanders, and the Democratic Party are trying to avoid a repeat of the 2016 general election, when some Sanders supporters – following a bitter and divisive primary battle with eventual nominee Hillary Clinton – did not vote for Clinton in the general election. Their defections were a contributing factor on GOP nominee Donald Trump’s upset victory over Clinton to win the presidency.

Trump threatens to cut 'whole relationship' with China
NEW YORK – U.S. President Donald Trump said Thursday that he is currently not on speaking terms with Chinese President Xi Jinping and that Washington could go as far as severing the "whole relationship" with Beijing if trade relations do not improve.
"I have a very good relationship [with Xi] but I just – right now I don't want to speak to him," Trump told Fox Business in a morning interview at the White House. "I don't want to speak to him."
Reiterating his oft-repeated view that China is "ripping us off," the American president said that "there are many things we could do" about it.
"We could cut off the whole relationship," he said. "Now if you did, what would happen? You'd save $500 billion, if you cut off the whole relationship."
Trump did not explain what he meant by "the whole relationship," but the $500 billion figure suggests that he might have been referring to trade. He has tweeted in the past that "we lose 500 Billion Dollars" a year to China on trade.
The American goods trade deficit with China peaked in 2018 at $419.5 billion, U.S. Census Bureau statistics show.
Trump's comments Thursday came as calls for retaliation against China mount in Washington, especially in his own Republican Party. The pandemic has also turned a spotlight on American reliance on Chinese supply chains for needed items, including medical equipment and drugs.
Trump said China's failure to contain COVID-19 within its own borders changed how he felt about the "phase one" trade agreement with Beijing, which he had touted as a win when it was signed in January.
"So I make a great trade deal, and now I say it just doesn't feel the same to me," he said. "The ink was barely dry, and the plague came over, and it doesn't feel the same to me."
