Why did Melania Trump hold a surprise press conference yesterday, addressing the Jeffrey Epstein files and her connection to them? Mark thinks he has the answer. Kamala Harris is scheduled to speak today at Al Sharpton's convention at the Sheraton in New York City, with Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro also in attendance.
