In this US Report Kirk Clyatt looks at:

* And what a funeral it was ... Aretha even had wardrobe changes for different viewings ... and of course as with everything in the USA ... a mention of Trump is a part of it.

* And then of course there is the multi-day funeral of John McCain ... amazingly his mother, Roberta, is still alive at 106.

* Of course Trump NOT invited to the funeral, or even to the viewing in the capital ... so he was hanging with his fan base in Indiana at another rally.

* Meanwhile according to at least one respected poll Trump's numbers at a new low.

* New book is out about Mike Pence ... seems he believes that God wants him to be the 'President-In- Waiting'.

* So who leaked Trump's off the record comments about trade negotiations with Canada ... could it have been the White House ... mmm?

* Australia's immigration policies are making a bit of a USA news blip because Chelsea Manning will not be able to appear live in Sydney. 

* Hundreds of kids separated from their parents at the border have still not been reunited with their parents ... including the 5 year old daughter of a women who is being held by ICE detention here in Southern Nevada.
