In France, I overheard a little girl listening to her father talk about America. She asked, “What’s going on over there?” His reply: “Just some very rich people doing some really bad things.” Honestly, it’s the most accurate and simple summary I’ve heard yet.

- I LOVE TAYLOR SWIFT!
- Univision has cancelled Biden campaign ads after executives met with Trump. This is the man who would end birthright citizenship and create "camps" to detain immigrants. He is dangerous to Latinos, and Univision has a responsibility to cover that — not cover it up.
