White House Senior Policy Advisor Stephen Miller appeared on CBS news show Face the Nation Sunday afternoon sporting a… new hairdo.
It’s certainly new hair, anyway.
Well, paint. It looks like paint. And Twitter is having an absolute field day with his new look.

Cynthia Nixon loses NY primary and shares a powerful message to young people on Twitter
Governor Andrew Cuomo won the Democratic nomination for a third term as governor of New York, defeating actress and activist Cynthia Nixon.
Nixon had campaigned hard on issues such as legalisation of marijuana and racial and economic justice. In her series of concession remarks posted in a Twitter thread, she chose to use her space to deliver a powerful message to young women and queer people.
“I’m not discouraged. I’m inspired,” Nixon wrote after her defeat.
While the result tonight wasn’t what we had hoped for, I’m not discouraged. I’m inspired. I hope you are too. We have fundamentally changed the political landscape in this state.

Watch Kim Jong-un’s stunned reaction to Trump’s fat joke
Most people wouldn’t use an international nuclear weapons summit to try out their latest comedy material.
Most people aren’t President Trump.
At lunchtime during Trump’s Singapore summit Tuesday, the president joked to photographers that they should make him and Kim Jong-un look “handsome and thin.”
“Getting a good picture everybody? So we look nice and handsome and thin? Perfect,” Trump joked.
Watch the North Korean leader’s reaction:

Pilot gets ‘sucked halfway out’ of cockpit when windshield shatters
Yep: It sounds like something out of a disaster movie, but this actually happened.
On Monday, Sichuan Airlines flight 3U8633, travelling from Chongqing, China to Lhasa, Tibet, was forced to make an emergency landing after a part of the windshield blew mid-flight.
“There was no warning sign,” Captain Liu Chuanjian was quoted as saying by Reuters. “Suddenly, the windshield just cracked and made a loud bang. The next thing I know, my co-pilot had been sucked halfway out of the window.”
