USSS website says President and VP’s immediate families. So I would say so. Right now it would just be spouse, as a candidate.

[rightwingintelligentsia]

Is that Medea Benjamin behind him to his left?

[Right-wing Librarian]

Thanks, BigEd.

Do you happen to know if it includes grandchildren as well?

[hoosiermama]

If it’s just spouse it may explain why Malania is staying home with Barron. To make sure he has protection.

Sure looks like that wee-otch.

Hey Nikos....

Benediction at convention tomorrow will be Greek Orthodox Archbishop!

[nikos1121]

What time?

[nikos1121]

In Greek?

[trisham]

Excellent!

[Jane Long]

Nice!!

I think Ernst was a bit taken back by so many in attendance getting up to leave due to the constraints of the bus schedules. It was probably hard seeing the packed house cheering earlier, and pretty much a skeleton crew left to listen...

According to Fox
At one point last night the police formed a corridor for the protection of the delegates Walking through this gauntlet gave them protection to go to transportation and hotels.

Most probably left to take advantage of this security.

** Just mentioned by Judge Napolitano on Fox Business, that the Secret Service removed Fox News from the convention floor. Not good! **

I bet I will get the answer by the time I get caught up on this thread, but my wild guess is someone gave Code Pink a press badge/ credentialed them...

[SelmaLee]

Ugh, yep that’s good old Susie (Medea).

[STARLIT]

My thoughts too, “Agatha”. Good Evening.

Nikos just posted a thread. Seems MEgyn is one of the ten women who is accusing Ayles.

[Jane Long]

I was just on that thread :)

Yeah, not looking so good for ol' Roger, Just like with Cosby I gave him the benefit of the doubt with first couple accusations but its starting to look like he may have a Bill Clinton problem.

CNN's Corey Lewandowski: If Paul Manafort Signed Off On Plagiarized Trump Speech He Should Resign

MEDIA MATTERS STAFF

COREY LEWANDOWSKI: Someone at the senior levels of this campaign has reviewed what Melania Trump was going to say and signed off on that. Now whether they're held responsible, because the buck stops at the top, or the person who actually put those words to paper is held responsible, I think it's shameful that Melania Trump, who is such a great person, who represents her husband and would represent this country amazingly as a first lady is under this controversy because the staff didn't do her well.

.. But legitimate grammer.

Kelsey ?
