Squat and Squabble

Andrew Puzder, President Trump’s pick to be the next Labor secretary, has withdrawn his nomination following growing pushback from Senate Republicans and others over his business background and personal life.  Looks like Mr. Pudzer will just have to keep being the CEO of CKE Restaurants, parent company of fast-food chains Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr.

Tough luck, Andy. You’re going to have to stick with that multi-million dollar income, rather than give it up and go to work for the government.

Did you want fries with that?

Like Moses returning from the desert, but having been wandering for only for 8 years instead of a biblical 40, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was back to visit the White House today. And what a difference a change of administration makes….  “With this visit, the United States again reaffirms our unbreakable bond with our cherished ally, Israel,” Trump said.
Netanyahu’s smile told the whole story.
