Donald Trump Claims GOP Mantle:

Donald Trump claimed the mantle Tuesday as the Republican presidential nominee, capping a stunning rise to power for his insurgent campaign as a boisterous showing by his family and friends revived his convention after a rocky start.

Chris Christie, shaking off the disappointment of being passed over as Trump’s running mate, performed a show trial of Hillary Clinton, whipping the crowd into frenzied chants of “Lock her Up! Lock her up!”

On Tuesday night, even The New York Post — which is owned by the same family that owns 21st Century Fox — reported that “the end is near” for Ailes.

Powerball’s ‘Mystery’ Winners Wait Six Months To Claim Record Jackpot:

It’s been six months since three winning tickets were drawn for a $1.6 billion jackpot.

Two of the ticket holders came forward quickly, but the third ticket holder remained a mystery until Tuesday.
