Trump warned that his arrest would lead to “the biggest protest we have ever had” and predicted that the people of the country wouldn’t stand for it. So far not that many stood for it.
He also mentioned that he “hadn’t had a chance to go through all the boxes” because “it’s a long, tedious job. Takes a long time, which I was prepared to do, but I have a very busy life. I’ve had a very busy life."

Note this is not a submarine, it's a submersible. It doesn’t move much freely on its own.
Contact with the submersible was lost about one hour and 45 minutes into the vessel's dive Sunday morning. It has a 96-hour oxygen supply.
Rescue units are on the way but what can they do.

It don't look good in the Atlantic.
A debris field was discovered within the search area by an ROV [remotely operated vehicle] near the Titanic, the U.S. Coast Guard announced Thursday. Experts within the unified command are evaluating the information.

Reports of recent knocking noises are deemed unrelated to the vessel.
