Today, they got $30. 10-20 each visit every week isnt uncommon. The things I do for my wife!
Anyone else do something like this?
Build the Wall GoFundMe is starting to dry up.
Over the first five days, it brought in about 15.5 million. On day 6, it brought in about 700K. Over the last 24 hours? 300K.
Could be that it's almost Christmas and people are doing other things. Or, as I tend to believe, everyone who was really enthusiastic about the wall donated right away because they were excited. Now that they're done, there's nobody left and it's drying up.
Democrats will hold 12 debates for the 2020 presidential contest
Source: NBC
WASHINGTON The Democratic National Committee announced on Thursday that it will sanction 12 upcoming presidential primary debates, with the first ones taking place in June and July of 2019, DNC Chairman Tom Perez said on a conference call with reporters.
Six of the debates will take place in 2019, Perez said, while the other six will be held in 2020, with the final one occurring in April of 2020. Perez announced that none of the states with the first nominating contests Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina would host a debate until the 2020 calendar year.
Given the potential size of the Democratic field, Perez said the DNC would split the debates into separate events on back-to-back nights, with participation on a particular evening determined by a random selection open to the public.
Thats in contrast to the early Republican presidential debates in 2016, when the GOP held an undercard debate on the same day before the primetime debate featuring the major candidates.

Tucker Carlson turns on Trump, "I don't think he's capable"
"Tucker Carlson is usually quick to go after critics of President Donald Trump on his nightly Fox News show.
But in a new interview with conservative Swiss magazine Die Weltwoche, the Tucker Carlson Tonight host called out Trump himself for his boastfulness and for failing to keep his promises to voters.
His chief promises were that he would build the wall, de-fund Planned Parenthood and repeal Obamacare, and he hasnt done any of those things, said Carlson, per The Washington Post.
...
I dont think hes capable, Carlson explained. I dont think hes capable of sustained focus. I dont think he understands the system. I dont think the Congress is on his side. I dont think his own agencies support him. Hes not going to do that.
