We'll talk about Tulsi Gabbard's brutal takedown of the Democrats and all they stand for, as she announces her exit from the Party. I think she has totally nailed it when it comes to her take on the Democrats, but I want to know why she made this move now, and what the future holds for the former congresswoman from Hawaii. Could Tulsi wind up as Trump's 2024 running mate even though she once went on "The View" and accused him of inciting racism and bigotry? Is she a fit for the Republican Party when she's so boldly pro-choice and pro-gun control? Let's talk all things Tulsi Gabbard, shall we?!

Have you seen the extraordinary new Casey DeSantis political ad in which she talks so lovingly and genuinely about her husband Ron and how he helped her through her fight against cancer? We'll play the sound from the finest ad of its kind I have ever seen, and then we'll talk about the hate filled reaction Casey's ad has triggered in some quarters. I guess if you're a hard core Democrat, partisan politics trumps everything else! How disturbing...how very sad.
