Friday Wrap Up.
I'm displeased with how the Stanley Cup final drama has shaken out so far. With Pittsburgh up 2 zip, I have lost some hope in the ability of these saber toothed beasts, to consume antarctic blubber. But maybe in the lions own den the story will be different.
Theresa May is blowing a massive lead in the UK election. It's starting to look like snap election call might be a mistake rather than genius. But I don't think that anyone can really say that Prime Minister Jeremy Corbyn is something to be proud of. We'll see how this shakes out.

The CPC leadership result is being called into question over discrepancies in the vote that are said to be human error. I'm not saying it's rigged, but the party should release full results.
Riding by riding full vote totals should not be hard to make public.
ipolitics has the story.
The virality of covfefe shows one thing. The internet loves the combination of silly and odd. People go all in with the Twitter jokes, and the Facebook memes. I laugh along, but really most of this stuff is just nonsense.
