How Pam Bondi lost her job | CNN Politics Her time in office showed her willingness to go where previous attorneys general wouldn’t and mold the Justice Department to a president’s political vision.

Trump threatens to jail unspecified reporter over airmen rescue leaks | CNN Politics President Donald Trump threatened to jail a journalist as part of a hunt for the “leaker” behind initial reports Friday that a second Air Force officer from a downed US fighter jet was missing.

My Take: These folks are now saying the quiet part out loud. This will be an issue. Especially with the morons who literally stood for 90 minutes and gave detailed information about an operation and doing far more damage than a reporter.

Trump is expected to nominate a new CDC head. ‘We don’t need a TV personality," one expert said. If confirmed by the Senate, the director will inherit an agency marked by the yearlong chaos of mass layoffs, a deadly shooting and hollowed-out leadership.
