Republican frontrunner Donald Trump tried to get Eliot Spitzer’s prostitute onto his reality TV show.

Yale Women’s Crew defeated Trump alma mater UPenn by two seconds.

The Hillary Clinton campaign was sent into a death spiral after discovering that bankrupt rapper 50 Cent withdrew his endorsement.

"I heard Obama speak," he said. "He hit me with that he-just-got-done-watching-'Malcolm X,' and I swear to God, I'm like, 'Yo, Obama!'

"I'm Obama to the end now, baby!"

Clinton nevertheless pledged to create a brokered convention.

A day after Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean urged the candidates to end the race by July 1, Clinton defied that call by declaring that she will take her campaign all the way to the Aug. 25-28 convention if necessary, potentially setting up the prolonged and divisive contest that party leaders are increasingly anxious to avoid.

"I know there are some people who want to shut this down and I think they are wrong," Clinton said in an interview during a campaign stop here Saturday. "I have no intention of stopping until we finish what we started and until we see what happens in the next 10 contests and until we resolve Florida and Michigan. And if we don't resolve it, we'll resolve it at the convention -- that's what credentials committees are for.
