That guy in the front row is totally checking out her legs.

I believe he's the Ambassador to whom Hillary tried to give the reset button.

Tell me again why reporters are unable to do even the most mundane research?

Because they are not supposed to, and don't want to waste the time, doing research.

They simply type up an article based on the latest talking point handout.

In that case, he has good reason. He’s probably still trying to get that image out of his head.

They are destroying the nation > IMO.

They’re just full on propaganda and disruption 24/7/365.

And the Hill is one of them.

It’s a NFC chip; it doesn’t even transmit, it reflects and wouldn’t transmit anything to nearby cell phones, but a properly equipped cell phone could read the NFC code.

Useful for officials keeping track of official balls during world cup games. That’s about it.

Tell me again why reporters are unable to do even the most mundane research?

Had this been President Obama, you can bet your Bippy they would have done research on the NFC chip faster than you can say Reggie Love.

"That guy in the front row is totally checking out her legs."

I believe that guy was or still is the Russian ambassador to the USA.
His name eludes me at the moment.
