Here, the South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg rips into U.S. Rep. Beto O’Rourke over stripping churches of their tax-exempt status. Sen. Elizabeth Warren also defended these churches. Wonder if Warren and Buttigieg coud be a 2020 ticket? More from Ovation Eddie.

Tulsi Gabbard, D-Hawaii, joined Edward Yang in pushing universal guaranteed income, i.e., free money. Yes, we all love free money!
