Florida Representative Debbie Wasserman-Schultz has announced she will resign as chair of the Democratic National Committee. The resignation is to become effective after the party's convention. The organisation's e-mail system was hacked; leaked e-mails appear to confirm accusations that Wasserman-Schultz had taken action favouring Hillary Clinton in her contest against Bernie Sanders to become the Democratic Party's presidential nominee. Sanders had previously called for Wasserman-Schultz to resign, a request he reiterated in light of the leak.
Wasserman-Schultz said in a statement:
I know that electing Hillary Clinton as our next president is critical for America's future. I look forward to serving as a surrogate for her campaign in Florida and across the country to ensure her victory.

There was this farmer who had been trying for years to get first prize in the fair for the largest hog. He'd been stuffing this hog several times a day with slop, but still didn't win. Having completely lost it, he shoots the hog and heads back to his farm. Angry he comes up with an idea and heads out of to the barn. Grabbing a little piglet, he taps a rubber cork into his butthole. 1 year later he's heading to the fair with the largest hog anyone has ever seen, the crowd has gone wild. Meanwhile an excited organ grinder loses his monkey and watches it climb into the hogs bin while chasing it. The ensuing explosion killed 10 people and wounded 100, and miraculously, the organ grinder survives. When asked what happened, he said, "the last thing I saw was my poor monkey frantically trying to put the cork back in".
Yeah, there is a moral to this story :)
Technically, lunchtime is at any moment. It's just a wave function.
