Montana Republican wins special election despite assault charge

Republican Greg Gianforte won a special election in Montana to replace Trump cabinet member Ryan Zinke. The victory came less than 24 hours after the billionaire software executive was charged with misdemeanor assault for allegedly “body slamming” a reporter covering his campaign. Plus, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton delivered the commencement address at her alma mater Wellesley College nearly 50 years after she spoke at her own graduation. Clinton had tough words about the man who beat her in November.
