On campuses, which are feeding grounds for journo bubbles, there were crying circles on election night 2016.

On Friday, Mary wrote about Rep. Ilhan Omar's Obama-bashing interview with Politico. In this interview, Omar told Politico's Tim Alberta that, among other things, Obama's hope and change was a "mirage" and that he got away with the "caging of kids" and with "murder" because he was "polished." Upon publication of the piece and the Democrat horror that she had attacked Obama, whom 49% of Democrats think was the best president since WWII, Omar went on the offensive.

On Monday I blogged that Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg missed oral arguments for the first time in her tenure because she's recovering from surgery. Doctors removed cancerous nodules off her lung. I wrote that people joked about giving her their limbs and organs, but also wouldn't be surprised if people actually did this. Say no more! Politico Chief Political Columnist Roger Simon asked Twitter today if anyone would "subtract one day off your life and add it to Ruth Bader Ginsburg's life for one extra day of good health."
