no image, no synopsis, no link ... all I see is the title, "It's about time ..."

This seems to be happening frequently. What am I missing here?

An ad blocker or script blocker? I have both of these and I still see it but I have my script blocker allowing DU.

Here's a direct link to it:

Oops. I see it shows up as a pic in my post as well. Try right clicking on the center of my post and then select "View Image" and it will open up in the original url. You should be able to see it then I think.

Maybe try a different browser and see if it shows up in the OP.

but I can totally see Christie saying something like that. I'm sure there is no love lost between him and Limbaugh.
