KELLYANNE CONWAY
Kellyanne Conway is set to leave the White House at the end of the month. Last night she spoke at the RNC convention talking personally and praising President Donald Trump.
MIKE PENCE Vice President Mike Pence opened his RNC speech Wednesday night with a message about the ideals that shaped America and a swipe at the Democrats for their convention last week. Speaking from Fort McHenry, Pence said, “It was on this site 206 years ago when our young republic heroically withstood a naval bombardment from the most powerful empire on Earth. They came to crush our revolution, to divide our nation, and to end the American experiment. The heroes who held this fort took their stand for life, liberty, freedom and the American flag. And those ideals have defined our nation.” He then added, “But they were hardly ever mentioned at last week’s Democratic National Convention. Instead Democrats spent four days attacking America.” “Joe Biden said that we were living through a season of darkness. But as President Trump said, where Joe Biden sees American darkness, we see American greatness,” he said.

“We got to take a break, but if it had been up to the president, though, we would have had more deaths by experimenting on people with bleach, so I’m not sure if we really…” Cooper said, as Urban retorted “No, come on, boo, come on Anderson, you know better, boo.” “He didn’t want to inject bleach into people? In medical experiments?” a stunned Cooper asked. “Boo, come on,” Urban said. “He didn’t David? Am I wrong?” Cooper asked.
