IN A NUTSHELL: MUST READ

NUTS AND BOLTS: SHOULD READ

Serbia Casually Finds Two Hellfire Missiles On A Passenger Flight“Checked bags” don’t always live up to their name. An Air Serbia flight is investigating an incident in which two Hellfire Missiles (as deadly as their name suggests) were found in the hold of a passenger flight from Lebanon (in the Middle East) to Portland, OR via Serbia (no, this isn’t a Tom Clancy novel). The Lebanese Army claims they were on the plane for “training” purposes… but still, there has to be a better way to transfer missiles than the way we transfer dirty vacation clothing.  Other Lost Missile Read: That Time The US Accidentally Sent A Missile To Cuba The Chinese Use Trump To Prove Democracy Doesn’t WorkSome might say that Donald Trump is a threat to American democracy, but they clearly aren’t giving him enough credit: he could be a threat to Chinese democracy too. China’s state-owned Global Times published an article that presents Trump as proof of democracy’s failure. The article uses the clash at Trump’s cancelled rally in Chicago as Exhibit A, and although it might be propaganda, it doesn’t exactly help the prospects for democratic rule in China.

• Todd Palin: The husband of former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin was hospitalized after a serious injury from a snow machine crash. Sarah Palin has cancelled her campaigning for Donald Trump while her husband is in intensive care. 
• Yemen: Two air force pilots from the UAE were killed when their warplane crashed in Yemen. Local news agencies are blaming the crash on a “technical malfunction” but that claim is impossible to verify independently. 
• Happy Salmon: After nearly two centuries away and multiple failed restoration programs, wild Atlantic Salmon eggs have been discovered in the Connecticut River system. Congrats to the happy spawners! 

LOOSE NUTS: FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT

Marco Rubio Gets Accused Of Stealing A Man’s Girlfriend Marco Rubio can’t win a state in the primaries, but he can sure win your girlfriend’s heart. The Florida Senator was heckled during a campaign event in his home state, and things got personal. Taking attention away from the stage, the clearly heartbroken man solicited laughs at first, until he described how his girlfriend doesn’t love him anymore (somehow mistaking the event for a taping of Dr. Phil). The video shows police escorting the soon-to-be-single gentleman out while the audience cheered Marco’s name. Honestly, we didn’t think he had it in him. 

SPONSORED NUTS: THE SLEEPING PNUT

Daily Pnut CEO Discovers Benefits Of Sleep Look, I enjoy sleeping. It’s probably my favorite time of the day, I don’t have to interact with other people, and it’s a great excuse to avoid working (or exercising). Being an “entrepreneur” means I’ve had to spend the last few months on a variety of couches, trains and air mattresses. After a few months, I got fed up and decided to buy a mattress. I asked around and decided to buy a Casper mattress — my friends raved about it, it was easy to buy, had a 100-day free return period and was cheaper than competitors. I was sold.
