Ilana has been providing the best commentary on the BLM peaceful protests since the first brick was thrown through the first Gucci window.

And now, could this be Ground Zero for the Free KR (!!) movement. Stay tuned…

As for CNN, have they officially changed their tagline to “Official News Source of the Trump Derangement Syndrome?” Don Lemon must be real; no sane person could invent him out of their imagination. Anderson Cooper: not just a scion of old wealth, but son of perhaps the loopiest mom in the Social Register. I’m dating myself, I know, but I can never forget Gloria Vanderbilt, with her penchant for self-promotion, at the vanguard of America’s unfortunate obsession with designer jeans in the early 80’s: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kOC1rdmAdMY

Used to be, America’s Robber Baron class led genuinely private lives and endowed libraries and truly great museums, while their wastrel offspring bled off their considerable trust funds in some glamorous overseas watering hole (hence the term jet set). After Glo-girl, Paris Hilton was inevitable. As for Anderson, he could be Gloria’s revenge for one too many savage SNL parodies.
