Meghan's Dad Rushed To Hospital In Critical Condition, She Shocks Harry With Cold Move.

It's been confirmed that Thomas Markle, Sr. suffered a massive heart attack and was

rushed to the hospital yesterday afternoon where he is undergoing heart surgery early

Wednesday morning.

With the wedding in utter chaos, the palace has gone dark after Prince Harry was shocked

by Meghan's cold and calculating move.

Don't miss this.

Shocking developments happened late yesterday afternoon as Meghan Markle's beleaguered

father Thomas Markle, Sr. was rushed to the hospital, and it has been confirmed he suffered

a massive heart attack and is undergoing life-saving surgery this morning.

Although his exact whereabouts are unknown, we do know that he spoke to TMZ from the hospital

late yesterday afternoon.

The 73-year-old Markle told TMZ, "They [doctors] will go in and clear blockage, repair damage

and put a stent where it is needed."

That may sound easy, but don't be fooled.

That's his best case scenario.

The procedure called an angioplasty starts out fine, but many times angioplasty ends

up in open heart surgeries.

This is a very critical procedure, and with his poor health history, his obesity, and

the fact he smokes, the doctors will have an open heart team on standby.

Placing the "stent" tells us his arteries will collapse.

A stent is like a pen coil placed inside the artery to keep it open.

So he is in critical condition in a hospital somewhere in either California or Mexico.

TMZ reported, "Thomas had a change of heart Tuesday … after receiving texts from Meghan

saying she loved him and was concerned for his health.

He told us he hoped he could travel to England to walk Meghan down the aisle."

That was before the recent heart attack.

"It [the heart attack] came just hours after Meghan seemed to have convinced her father

to change his mind and walk her down the aisle," reports the Daily Mail.

"I hate the idea of missing one of the greatest moments in history and walking my daughter

down the aisle," Mr. Markle said yesterday before his health crisis.

"Of course, I'd walk her down the aisle.

This is a historic moment.

I'd like to be a part of history."

If you think Meghan or any family members are rushing to his side, you're wrong.

Hey, the circus must go on, that's what the future royal bride-to-be says.

Palace insiders say Prince Harry was dumbstruck and then fuming over Meghan's coldness after

they learned her father was rushed to the hospital and would undergo a critical heart

operation.

Sarah Vine, a royal expert who is married to British conservative politician Michael

Gove, is fuming along with Harry.

In an article titled, "Why the debacle surrounding Meghan's father would never have happened

if Diana was still alive," she writes, "If it were me, I'd be tempted to call the whole

damn circus off and just tie the knot quietly in private, well away from the cameras.

Why they didn't just do that in the first place is slightly baffling."

Ms. Vine's sentiments went viral with many Brits and Americans sharing her outrage.

She continues, "But while Meghan is clearly at ease with her new cultural and social status,

the same cannot be said of those she has left behind."

"Given that Harry and Meghan are so passionate about mental health, you would have thought

the potential strain that being at the center of such a global event could place on her

father would have been a concern to them," adds Ms. Vine.

Sarah Vine's article was posted just hours before Mr. Markle was taken to the hospital,

but she's spot on when she says she doesn't understand why Meghan's dad was left in

Mexico and fed to the paparazzi, knowing he was clearly out of his depth.

She doesn't get why no one had the sense to dispatch a trusted aide from Kensington

Palace out to Mexico the moment the engagement was announced.

Knowing Diana, she believes Harry's mother would have intervened and he would have been

brought to the U.K. weeks ago.

Vine asks, "With the wedding only a week away, what on earth was he still doing there?

Why wasn't he already in the UK, attending rehearsals, being talked through what to expect

and getting to know the social landscape?"

"She [Diana] would have seen this coming, stepped in, held his hand, made him feel welcome

— no matter what.

Diana had her defects, but in terms of emotional intelligence and kindness towards others you

couldn't fault her."

So what is Meghan doing?

Well, she sent her personal assistant to pick up her mother at the very posh VIP area at

Heathrow Airport.

Doria Ragland was whisked away to the lavish Cliveden House where she'll be treated like

royalty.

It's speculated that Ragland will be given an audience with the Queen and the rest of

the royal family prior to the wedding, but that is not confirmed.

In fact, Kensington Palace officials are in utter chaos as the Queen continues to be in

an uproar over the screw-ups with Mr. Markle.

It's pretty clear Meghan ignored her father for months, and then at the last minute, she

wants him to walk her down the aisle, although he wasn't going to be allowed to be in the

carriage ride to the church with her mother.

One royal watcher asked, "Was he suppose to meet them at the church coming from a Travel

Lodge?"

I'm with 60% of United Kingdom citizens who say under these circumstances this wedding

is just vulgar and they won't tune in.

We all hope Mr. Markle comes through his heart surgery without any complications, but as

for his daughter, the soon to be Duchess of Sussex, she's said she wants to change the

world.

Well, someone needs to tell "her royal highness" that charity starts at home.

Florida Election Supervisor GUILTY Of Rigging Election For Wasserman Schultz – They Found It ALL - Duration: 5:31.

HUGE!

Florida Election Supervisor GUILTY Of Rigging Election For Wasserman Schultz – They Found

It ALL

In what is an ironic twist of events it has come to light, the elections supervisor in

Florida's second-most populous county broke state and federal law by unlawfully destroying

ballots cast in Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz's 2016 Democratic primary.

This is according to a recent ruling by a judge in a case brought by the congresswoman's

challenger who wanted to check for voting irregularities.

The ruling states the Broward County Supervisor of Elections Office violated state and federal

laws by destroying ballots from a 2016 Congressional race too soon — and while the ballots were

the subject of a lawsuit against the office.

The ruling does allow Wasserman Schultz's challenger Tim Canova to have the attorney

fees he has paid be reimbursed by the elections office.

Leonard Collins, his attorney, said those costs exceed $200,000 already.

This leaves Florida taxpayers on the hook for Wasserman Schultz and her unethical behavior

yet again.

This recent ruling stems from Canova's bid to unseat Wasserman Schultz in the primary

race for the Democratic seat.

Canova lost the race by roughly 57% to 43% or 28,809 votes to 21,907.

Canova has also gotten the state of Florida to take interest in this case, and as a result,

the governor's office states that it plans to start election monitoring will be so "the

citizens of Broward County can have the efficient, properly run election they deserve."

According to the Sun-Sentinal "Canova, who was checking for voting irregularities

in the race, sought to look at the paper ballots in March 2017 and took Elections Supervisor

Brenda Snipes to court three months later when her office hadn't fulfilled his request.

Snipes approved the destruction of the ballots in September, signing a certification that

said no court cases involving the ballots were pending.

Snipes called the action a 'mistake' during testimony she gave in the case, saying the

boxes were mislabeled and there was 'nothing on my part that was intentional' about destroying

the contested ballots.

'When I sign, I sign folders filled with information,' Snipes said in her testimony,

later adding: 'I trust my staff.

They have the responsibility of giving me information that's correct.'

Circuit Judge Raag Singhal ruled Friday that Snipes wrongly destroyed public records because:

— The elections office is required to maintain the ballots in federal elections for 22 months,

while Snipes destroyed the ballots after 12 months, which is the retention period for

state elections.

The ballots were the subject of a pending lawsuit, so it would take a court order from

the judge in the case to allow their destruction.

Snipes 'has not presented any evidence refuting that the public records sought were destroyed

while this case was pending before this court,' Singhal said.

Snipes will appeal the decision, said her attorney, Burnadette Norris-Weeks.

'We think the judge is wrong,' Norris-Weeks said.

The elections office never refused to provide access to the ballots, she said.

Instead, it rejected a request by Canova to use outside equipment to scan the ballots,

Norris-Weeks said.

Also, it didn't receive a partial payment to cover the costs of the public records request

until days before the suit was filed and the scanned copies of the ballots it can currently

provide are 'accurate and inherently reliable,' she said.

It was a mistake [destroying the original ballots], but the ballots were preserved,'

Norris-Weeks said.

'They were scanned shortly after the election.'"

It is not currently known if the judge's ruling in civil court will lead to charges

being filed in criminal court against Snipes.

A spokesman for Broward State Attorney Michael Satz stated a decision had not yet been made

but that their office was in the process of obtaining a copy of the judge's order and

looking into it.

It is not currently known exactly what sort of monitoring system will be implemented in

the coming months in an effort to ensure election integrity but Norris-Weeks states that she

sees this as an effort by Republican state leaders to get some control over the heavily

Democratic county.

Canova, who currently works as a professor at Nova Southeastern University, is calling

for Snipes to be fired as she failed in one of her most important duties, as well as violating

the trust of the citizens of Broward County and of the state of Florida.

He states that given the ruling and the circumstances – "I think dismissal is an appropriate

remedy."

The judge's ruling in the case cited previous legal precedence that held "dismissal was

an appropriate sanction for failing to preserve evidence 'even though the destruction of

evidence may have resulted from negligence rather than an attempt to obstruct justice.'"

Collins stated of Canova and the events that transpired – "He was absolutely stonewalled

by the supervisor of elections.

When they were required to provide the records to us, they destroyed them."

Canova announced in April that he plans to leave the Democratic Party but also fully

intends to challenge Wasserman Schultz to a rematch in November as a candidate with

no party affiliation.

Devin Nunes Uttered The Nine Words That Ended Obama's Deep State - Duration: 14:11.

Devin Nunes Uttered The Nine Words That Ended Obama's Deep State

Devin Nunes has been locked in combat with Barack Obama's Deep State.

But that fight is heading toward the end game.

That's because Nunes appeared on Fox News and uttered the nine words that destroyed

Obama's Deep State.

Nunes was being interviewed on Fox and Friends about the latest developments in the Russia

investigation.

The House Intelligence Committee Chairman discussed the latest bombshell about the FBI

having planted a spy in the Trump campaign.

But that wasn't all.

Nunes unleashed a political earthquake when he tied it together with how the Russia investigation

began.

During the interview, Nunes stunned viewers when he discussed the intelligence he reviewed

and declared that "…because we have yet to see any credible evidence," it should

have caused the FBI to open a counterintelligence investigation.

The Daily Caller reports:

"LET'S TALK ABOUT HOW DID THIS GET STARTED?

YOU HAD FUSION GPS THAT WAS HIRED BY THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN TO DRAW UP

A DOSSIER ON THE PRESIDENT — OR AS THE PRESIDENT WAS RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT," NUNES SAID TUESDAY

ON "FOX & FRIENDS."

"WHAT HAPPENED WITH THAT IS THAT IN [GLEN SIMPSON'S] TESTIMONY HE MENTIONED THAT THERE

WAS A SOURCE WITHIN THE CAMPAIGN.

NUNES SAID GLENN SIMPSON, THE HEAD OF FUSION GPS, TOLD CONGRESS HE WAS BEING TRUTHFUL ABOUT

A MOLE WITHIN THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN AND PREDICTED THE FALLOUT WOULD TARNISH THE FBI AND DOJ.

"GLENN SIMPSON SAID THAT IN WHAT WAS CLOSED TESTIMONY.

THEN IT BECAME PUBLIC.

NOW HE'S CONFIRMED THAT HE WAS TELLING CONGRESS THE TRUTH, WHICH IS PROBABLY A GOOD IDEA,"

NUNES CONTINUED.

"WE BELIEVE HE WAS TELLING THE TRUTH.

AND WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS GET THE DOCUMENTS TO FIGURE OUT — DID THEY ACTUALLY HAVE,

WHAT METHODS WERE USED TO OPEN THIS COUNTER INTELLIGENCE INVESTIGATION?"

"I THINK WHAT IT REALLY MEANS, I THINK IT WILL LOOK BADLY ON THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

AND THE FBI ON HOW THEY CONDUCTED THIS INVESTIGATION," NUNES SAID.

HE ALSO SAID THE ENTIRE INVESTIGATION INTO PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP LACKED CREDIBILITY

FROM THE START.

"I THINK IF THE CAMPAIGN WAS SOMEHOW SET UP, I THINK THAT WOULD BE A PROBLEM.

RIGHT?

IF THEY WERE SOMEHOW MEETINGS THAT OCCURRED AND ALL OF THIS WAS A SETUP," NUNES SAID.

"BECAUSE WE HAVE YET TO SEE ANY CREDIBLE EVIDENCE OR INTELLIGENCE THAT LED TO THE OPENING

OF THIS INVESTIGATION."

As this investigation drags on towards its conclusion, Americans are wondering why it's

not the FBI and Mueller under investigation.

This whole Russia probe was a pretense to frame Trump for collusion in order to destroy

him politically and legally.

We will keep you up to date on any new developments

Prosecutor Blew The Whistle On FBI's Plan To Frame Donald Trump - Duration: 13:28.

Prosecutor Blew The Whistle On FBI's Plan To Frame Donald Trump

For two years, the FBI has investigated Donald Trump for Russian collusion.

The probe has yet to uncover one shred of evidence despite a full court press by the

anti-Trump media and FBI leadership.

So one prosecutor stepped forward and blew the whistle about what the FBI was really

up to.

Joe diGenova was a former special prosecutor and attorney for Donald Trump.

During a recent interview, diGenova detailed how the FBI's plot had two purposes.

The first was to clear Hillary Clinton.

The second was designed to frame Donald Trump.

Lifezette reports:

"WHAT'S GOING ON NOW IS THE UNRAVELING OF A VERY SUBSTANTIAL PLOT THAT HAD TWO GOALS

— TO EXONERATE HILLARY CLINTON ILLEGALLY AND, IF SHE LOST THE PRESIDENCY, TO FRAME

DONALD TRUMP AND HIS ASSOCIATES OF CRIMES THEY DID NOT COMMIT," HE SAID TUESDAY ON

"THE LAURA INGRAHAM SHOW."

"ROBERT MUELLER HAS PRODUCED NOT A SCINTILLA OF EVIDENCE THAT ANYBODY IN THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN

ENGAGED IN ANY ILLEGAL ACTIVITY REGARDING ILLEGAL CONTACT WITH RUSSIAN OFFICIALS."

AFTER A YEAR ON THE CASE, IT IS FAIR TO ASK WHAT MUELLER IS INVESTIGATING, DIGENOVA SAID.

"THE ANSWER SEEMS TO BE — ANYTHING BUT THAT," HE SAID.

DIGENOVA…SAID THE FBI AGENTS WHO TALKED TO DERIPASKA MOST LIKELY "CROSSED A NUMBER

OF LINES."

DiGenova also went on to identify the individuals responsible for waging the silent coup against

the President.

The former special prosecutor singled out Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein for

his disloyalty.

It was Rosenstein who appointed Robert Mueller and gave him the running room to conduct a

fishing expedition and ignore Justice Department guidelines by refusing to identify a specific

crime for Mueller to investigate.

Lifezette also reports:

"DIGENOVA SPREAD BLAME AROUND BUT DIRECTED THE MAJORITY OF IT AT DEPUTY ATTORNEY GENERAL

ROD ROSENSTEIN, THE MAN WHO APPOINTED MUELLER.

DIGENOVA ACCUSED ROSENSTEIN OF ACTING NOT BASED ON A LEGAL JUDGMENT BUT OUT OF A PIQUE

OF ANGER BECAUSE THE PRESIDENT UNDERCUT THE OFFICIAL JUSTIFICATION FOR THE FIRING OF FBI

DIRECTOR JAMES COMEY.

ROSENSTEIN HAD PREPARED A MEMO OUTLINING COMEY'S VIOLATIONS OF DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE (DOJ)

POLICY DURING HIS HANDLING OF THE FBI'S INVESTIGATION OF FORMER SECRETARY OF STATE

HILLARY CLINTON'S USE OF A PRIVATE EMAIL SERVER FOR OFFICIAL GOVERNMENT BUSINESS.

BUT THEN TRUMP TOLD "NBC NIGHTLY NEWS" ANCHOR LESTER HOLT THAT THE REAL REASON WAS

THE RUSSIA INVESTIGATION.

"AT THAT POINT, THAT IS WHEN ROD ROSENSTEIN, I AM TOLD BY PEOPLE IN THE DEPARTMENT, GOT

MAD, WAS EMBARRASSED BY WHAT THE PRESIDENT HAD SAID — AND, THEREFORE, MADE HIM LOOK

LIKE A FOOL — AND IT WAS THAT DAY HE DECIDED TO APPOINT MUELLER, WHOM HE HAD INTERVIEWED

THE DAY BEFORE, TO BE THE NEXT FBI DIRECTOR [FOR A SECOND TOUR] TO REPLACE JAMES COMEY,"

HE SAID.

DIGENOVA CALLED ROSENSTEIN "AN INCOMPETENT LIAR."

HE SAID HIS SOURCES INDICATE THAT NEITHER ROSENSTEIN NOR ATTORNEY GENERAL JEFF SESSIONS

ARE SECURE IN THEIR JOBS.

"JEFF SESSIONS — A MAN WHO I LOVE DEARLY AND HAVE KNOWN FOR YEARS — IS CLUELESS,"

HE SAID."

Jeff Sessions Crossed A Line That Donald Trump May Never Forgive - Duration: 14:12.

Jeff Sessions Crossed A Line That Donald Trump May Never Forgive

Attorney General Jeff Sessions is on the hot seat.

He's allowed the Deep State to run wild and refused to prosecute the criminals scheming

against the President.

Now Sessions has launched an investigation into a Trump ally, crossing a line that Trump

and his supporters may never forgive.

The New York Times broke the story that the FBI and Department of Justice are investigating

Trump campaign vendor Cambridge Analytica for the alleged data breach during the 2016

election.

Cambridge became the latest liberal boogeyman – even though they did the exact same thing

the Obama campaign was praised for in 2012 – and Sessions is allowing this investigation

to proceed because his chief concern appears to be placating the swamp and anti-Trump media.

The Times reports:

"THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT AND THE F.B.I.

ARE INVESTIGATING CAMBRIDGE ANALYTICA, THE NOW-DEFUNCT POLITICAL DATA FIRM, AND HAVE

SOUGHT TO QUESTION FORMER EMPLOYEES AND BANKS THAT HANDLED ITS BUSINESS, ACCORDING TO AN

AMERICAN OFFICIAL AND OTHER PEOPLE FAMILIAR WITH THE INQUIRY.

PROSECUTORS HAVE QUESTIONED POTENTIAL WITNESSES IN RECENT WEEKS, TELLING THEM THAT THERE IS

AN OPEN INVESTIGATION INTO CAMBRIDGE ANALYTICA — WHICH WORKED ON PRESIDENT TRUMP'S ELECTION

AND OTHER REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGNS IN 2016 — AND "ASSOCIATED U.S. PERSONS."

BUT THE PROSECUTORS PROVIDED FEW OTHER DETAILS, AND THE INQUIRY APPEARS TO BE IN ITS EARLY

STAGES, WITH INVESTIGATORS SEEKING AN OVERVIEW OF THE COMPANY AND ITS BUSINESS PRACTICES.

THE INVESTIGATION COMPOUNDS THE WOES OF A FIRM THAT HAS COME UNDER INTENSE SCRUTINY

FROM LAWMAKERS AND REGULATORS IN THE UNITED STATES AND BRITAIN SINCE THE NEW YORK TIMES

AND OBSERVER IN LONDON REPORTED IN MARCH THAT IT HAD HARVESTED PRIVATE DATA FROM MORE THAN

50 MILLION FACEBOOK PROFILES, AND THAT IT MAY HAVE VIOLATED AMERICAN ELECTION LAWS.

THIS MONTH, CAMBRIDGE ANALYTICA ANNOUNCED THAT IT WOULD SHUT DOWN AND DECLARE BANKRUPTCY,

SAYING THAT NEGATIVE PRESS AND CASCADING FEDERAL AND STATE INVESTIGATIONS HAD DRIVEN AWAY CUSTOMERS

AND MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE FIRM TO REMAIN IN BUSINESS."

Investigators are snooping around Cambridge despite giving a pass to the Obama campaign,

Hillary Clinton, James Clapper, James Comey, and other heroes of the left who committed

multiple crimes.

The Times also reports:

"THE FEDERAL INVESTIGATION IN THE UNITED STATES APPEARS TO FOCUS ON THE COMPANY'S

FINANCIAL DEALINGS — INVESTIGATORS HAVE REACHED OUT TO THE COMPANY'S BANKS, FOR

INSTANCE — AND HOW IT ACQUIRED AND USED PERSONAL DATA PULLED FROM FACEBOOK AND OTHER

SOURCES, ACCORDING TO THE AMERICAN OFFICIAL, WHO WAS BRIEFED ON THE INQUIRY, AND OTHER

PEOPLE FAMILIAR WITH IT.

IN ADDITION, THE INVESTIGATORS HAVE CONTACTED FACEBOOK, SAID THE OFFICIAL, WHO SPOKE ON

THE CONDITION OF ANONYMITY TO DISCUSS THE INVESTIGATION.

THE OFFICIAL WOULD NOT PROVIDE ANY OTHER DETAILS, AND FACEBOOK DECLINED TO COMMENT.

IN A SIGN OF THE INQUIRY'S SCOPE, ONE OF THE PROSECUTORS INVOLVED IS THE ASSISTANT

CHIEF OF THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT'S SECURITIES AND FINANCIAL FRAUD DIVISION, BRIAN KIDD.

THE EFFORT IS BEING ASSISTED BY AT LEAST ONE AGENT WHO INVESTIGATES CYBERCRIME FOR THE

F.B.I., THOSE PEOPLE SAID."

Trump supporters are beginning to question if Sessions is incompetent.

Sessions outrageously recused himself in the Russia investigation and has allowed Deputy

Attorney General Rod Rosenstein to thumb his nose at Congress and the Constitution by obstructing

document requests.

Sessions has compounded that error by permitting Trump's enemies to criminally leak and conspire

to destroy Donald Trump while allowing the full force of the federal government to be

turned on Trump allies like Paul Manafort, Michael Flynn, and now Cambridge Analytica.

Critics believe Attorney General Sessions sat back and allowed the Deep State to run

wild while ignoring clear crimes by the left because he is afraid of liberal media blowback.

This behavior is unacceptable.

Do you think Donald Trump should fire Jeff Sessions?

Oprah Stops College Commencement Speech To - Duration: 13:37.

Oprah Stops College Commencement Speech To Make Repulsive Political Statement

Oprah Winfrey, the renowned talk show host, like many other A-list celebrities is known

for her very liberal politics.

She did campaign for President Obama after all and donate a significant amount of money

to his campaign.

But what she did recently at a college graduation commencement speech is pissing people off.

Not in a good way.

Especially given the political nature of her comments that were blatantly obvious in their

intent.

Perhaps she should instead go to the paid speech circuit like her friends former President

Obama and the former Secretary of State and failed presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

Perez Hilton reported the following on the ordeal

"Oprah Winfrey was the commencement speaker at the University of Southern California's

graduation ceremony for the Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism on Friday

afternoon, and in pure Oprah style, she did it larger than life — and with a very important

message for new grads.

Speaking for more than twenty minutes to the USC crowd, Oprah touched on a lot of different

things, but her focus on politics and living through this moment in our nation's history

— with a special reference to Michelle Obama — should probably be remembered for a while.

Trending: CNN Reporter Nearly Gets Into 'Physical Fight' In White House, Gets Smacked Back

To Reality By Sarah

In that excerpt from the full speech (which you can watch on video, above), Winfrey said:

"This moment in time, this is your time to rise.

Even though you can't go anywhere — you can't stand in line at Starbucks, you can't

go to a party, you can't go anywhere without everyone talking about how bad things are,

how terrible it is … And this is what I know: The problem is everybody is meeting

hysteria with more hysteria, and then we just are all becoming hysterical, and it's getting

worse … If they go low — thank you, Michelle Obama — we go to the polls.""

USA Today reported the following as well,

"Oprah Winfrey is urging 2018 graduates to "be the truth" and "exemplify honesty."

The media mogul passed on these words of wisdom and more during an impassioned commencement

speech for the University of Southern California's Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism

Friday, which took aim at fake news.

"Everything around us, including and in particular the Internet and social media,

is now being used to erode trust in our institutions, enter fear in our elections and wreak havoc

on our infrastructure," she said.

"It enables misinformation to run rampant, attention spans to run short and false stories

from phony sites to run circles around major news outlets."

The good news, Winfrey said, is that upcoming leaders, like the graduates in the audience,

have the power to change things.

"You will become the new editorial gate-keepers, an ambitious army of truth-seekers who will

arm yourselves with the intelligence, with the insights and the facts necessary to strike

down deceit," she said.

"You can answer false narratives with real information and you can set the record straight.""

Oprah is not the only one making speeches.

Every year A-list celebrities, businessmen and women, entrepreneurs, and successful individuals

in every field of work are asked to give speeches to the graduates of the current year.

Some are controversial while others are not.

But one thing in particular that always causes controversy each year is when celebrities

are chosen to give speeches.

Commencement speeches are supposed to be helpful and joyful speeches that prepare the graduates

for the world that is to come.

Not opportunities for these celebrities to share their political opinions.

Because at the end of the day the audience has hundreds of people in it with conservatives,

liberals, and independents.

Alienating people within the audience is not the point of the commencement speech.

The purpose is to bring everyone together.

When we live in a world where entertainers and Hollywood elitists feel the need to always

chime in on political issues anyways it makes it foolish to choose these people to give

speeches.

If they cannot get through an awards ceremony without talking politics or making their award

win political why on earth would they get through a commencement speech without getting

political?

It is a shame that valuable money from the schools that could be going towards decreasing

tuition for students who need the opportunity to be there is being wasted on people who

give these terrible speeches.

Not only should Oprah be ashamed of what she did the university should be as well.
