🐉 Dracarys! New trailer for HBO’s House of the Dragon is full of action

HBO finally dropped a newer and longer trailer for its "Game of Thrones" prequel, "House of the Dragon," and you will not be shocked to learn the trailer is full of dragons - and also plenty of Targaryens with their tell-tale white blond tresses.

The new show premieres on August 21 on HBO (streaming on HBO Max), and is a prequel set immediately before a civil war spun out of competing heirs in House Targaryen. The series is based on "The Dying of the Dragons," a novella found in George R.R. Martin’s 2018 novel"Fire & Blood."

President Biden kept his loyal audience on the edge of their seats with his latest slip-up - this time even the White House had to make amends for him.

🗣 Speaking to the nation about climate change on Wednesday in Massachusetts, Biden made the "big reveal" that he has cancer. He spoke about how oil pollution affected the city of Claymont, Delaware, where he lived for several years as a child: “You had to turn on the windshield wipers to literally wash the oil stain off the window. That's why I and a hell of a lot of other people I grew up with have cancer.”

Such a statement could cause panic among Americans. Fortunately, the White House quickly stepped in to point out that Biden was speaking about skin cancer treatment he'd had years before taking office
