The two Trump campaign staffers accused of being involved in a dispute with an Arlington National Cemetery official have been identified, according to a report from NPR.

The broadcaster broke the allegations last week, revealing how two Trump staffers—whom it did not identify—got into a physical and verbal altercation with an Arlington employee who told them they couldn’t take photos in the cemetery’s Section 60.

The staffers involved in the incident were identified by a source Thursday as Justin Caporale, a deputy campaign manager, and Michel Picard, a member of the Republican nominee’s advance team.

        Yeah, I do that from time to time, but often times I see a Daily Beast link and don’t want to deal with cutting, loading, pasting, then launching a desktop cache on a mobile device.

        I’m getting into the habit of just googling the topic and looking for a news source like NPR. Something that isn’t ad blocked, and has a nice mobile UI.

        Sometimes they don’t load the full article text in the DOM, and reader view only gets a truncated article, and sometimes reader view pulls up text from an adjacent article that is recommended below the fold. There site is so poorly engineered.

        It’s be one thing if it was just dark patterns and roadblocks, but DM is also a buggy piece of shit that flashes and loads incorrectly even when ad blockers are off and users are signed in.

      I don’t bother even trying any more. Between their poor mobile layout and their aggressive paywalls, it’s not worth it.
