How much of Hillary’s gay pride swag will the Clinton Foundation’s Middle Eastern donors buy? (Sunday open thread)

**Written by Doug Powers

It was quite a news week, so here’s an open thread to help digest it all — or talk about something unrelated if you like. Today’s open thread is brought to you by Happyscrapper, a pound of bacon and Michelle’s great new book Who Built That.
