which will actually be of the WMoW. But the pink hats would be a dead giveaway. Will they photoshop all the hats?

that's at like 8 months and would be illegal to abort everywhere unless the mother's life was threatened.

about it on PBS Newshour (which I only turned on because a thread here earlier, which I can't find, about David Brooks' comments interested me). I muted it and played solitaire, so I don't know what was said. Whatever it was, wasn't of interest to me.

From what I understand the event was to start at the monument at noon. These were taken around 11:30am...

I don't need to watch that crap.

I caught enough to let you know they were positively peeing themselves with happiness that Pence stopped by to talk to them. This of course, excited Donald greatly.

on all of them.
