   I had only read transcripts of Meghan McCain ‘s eulogy. I hadn’t seen video until watching my DVR of AM Joy. The video was quite striking. And, Senator Pittypat foisting Jarvanka on them? Her rage was palpable. That wasn’t grief speaking..it was pure rage.

     THIS COMMENT RIGHT HERE:

     To expound on points 5, 8 and 9 (optics of black church strong on lecherous, decrepit male leadership and short on male soldiers in the Lord’s army in the pews; professionalism and punctiliousness of gospel artist performers; Chernobyl toxic eulogy by Rev. Jasper Williams)….

    To Every young Latino; it’s your destiny to vote. Now more than ever. Vote against hate. Against the ones that say we don’t belong. Against the ones that say that we need to go away. Against the ones that don’t support Dreamers and suppress the dreams of every American…vote! https://t.co/FAxLdMsVy0

    Chris Christie's admin reportedly funneled $500,000,000 of N.J. workers' pension cash into the owner of American Media, the media biz that allegedly helped bury negative stories about Trump. Christie's PAC also got a big donation from the same media biz. https://t.co/COrqSLiquv

    If you didn't see Meghan McCain's tribute to her father, the look on Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner's faces tells you all you really need to know.
