Where in the world is Meredith McIver?
Where in the world is Meredith McIver? Will Mueller interview this ghostly person. She must know a lot if she exists.
I just don't want to let a season go w/o asking this question!
I promise to forever revisit this:

HERE’S HOW YOU CAN HELP PEOPLE AFFECTED BY HURRICANE MARIA
Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands and other Caribbean islands were devastated by Hurricane Maria. Relief agencies are seeking donations, as well as food, water, and medical supplies.
At least 13 people have died. Most people don't have water or power. There's no cell service. Roads have been totally washed away or blocked by debris. This is life right now in Puerto Rico, where 3.5 million Americans are struggling to recover from the devastation of last week's Hurricane Maria.
Local officials described the scene as "apocalyptic" on Sunday. And just two weeks earlier, Hurricane Irma blew through and caused as much as $1 billion in damages to the island.
A lot of mainland Americans don't realize that Puerto Ricans are Americans. The results reflect a stark reality about the nation's awareness of the Caribbean territory and the island's financial crisis. Puerto Ricans have held American citizenship since 1917, are able to carry American passports and can enter the U.S. mainland freely. Residents of the island can't vote for a president unless they move to one of the 50 states, but they can send delegates to the party conventions. Regardless, lawmakers have been reluctant to help Puerto Rico deal with growing financial woes this year. FEMA has been providing lifesaving resources to the island, but people there could use any help they can get to try to rebuild their destroyed lives.
After the region has been hit by two hurricanes of such magnitude, emergency relief and long-term recovery efforts in the Caribbean will take months, if not years. Organizations on the ground need your support now more than ever - be it through volunteering, offering monetary donations, or sending supplies to the area. If you're interested in helping the victims of the storm, below you'll find a list of organizations that could use your help.

Q: Is Donald PROJECTING when he says that Jong-un DOESN'T care about starving/killing his own people
It is all projection all the time.
And is "Rocket Man" meant as an insult or as a compliment?
