The Democratic National Committee rejected a request to remove Gov. Dan Malloy from the party's platform committee.

Donald Trump hits the magic number to become presumptive Republican nominee on his quest to become the next POTUS. On the other side of the aisle, Bernie Sanders asked the Democratic National Committee to boot Dan Malloy from his role at the convention. This hour on our weekly news roundtable The Wheelhouse, we discuss the jobs and duties of these politicians.

Also, the world's biggest hedge fund is getting $22 million dollars from the State of Connecticut...so what'll it take to keep Aetna and all of their jobs?
