John Bolton is no longer President Trump’s national security advisor, and according to John Bolton, the break-up was totally mutual.
At 11:58 a.m. on Tuesday, Trump tweeted “I informed John Bolton last night that his services are no longer needed at the White House. I disagreed strongly with many of his suggestions, as did others in the Administration, and therefore…” Second tweet: “….I asked John for his resignation, which was given to me this morning. I thank John very much for his service. I will be naming a...

Pointing to your head and saying “Nobody can quite figure it out” is a set-up that only the sturdiest of sitcom writers could resist, and President Donald Trump made it all the more tempting for wisecracking journalists by framing the comment around irresistible “deadline” bait.
Trump’s retweet-friendly comment came at today’s press conference (see video below) in response to Reuters correspondent Jeff Mason’s question, “What is your deadline, if you have one, for China to make progress on trade before you impose the tariffs on the other $325 billion in goods?”
After some evading – and Mason’s repeat of the question – Trump said, “No, I have no deadline.” Then, pointing to his own head, the president continued, “My deadline is what’s up here. We’ll figure out the deadline. Nobody can quite figure it out.”
The “deadline” comment hit too close to home for journos to resist.

The other is the need to restore integrity to our government. I think we need to do both of those things.”
Bennet also released a campaign video titled “7,591 words,...

President Trump’s primary campaign promise was to build a “big, beautiful” wall along America’s southern border. Construction has yet to begin nearly two years into his presidency, and with Democrats set to take control of the House of Representatives next month, it doesn’t look like Congress is going to Ok the massive project anytime soon.
The Gop still holds the keys to the government for a few more weeks, though, and Trump is doing all he can to convince lawmakers to set aside $5 billion so that more...

Brett Kavanaugh was officially sworn in as a Supreme Court justice on Saturday, but President Trump wanted to do it again.
“A man or a woman must always be presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty,” Trump said during a ceremony at the White House on Monday. “You, sir, under historic scrutiny, were proven innocent.” The first part of the quote is true regarding a criminal trial, not a job interview for the nation’s most esteemed judicial appointment. The second part is a lie. Nevertheless, the president and Republican...

Donald Trump is reportedly a man of few friends — and he may have one less than he claims.
The president’s trip to Paris this week has raised questions about the existence of “Jim,” a City-of-Light-loving friend whom Trump referenced repeatedly on the campaign trail and who seemed to serve as a cautionary tale that leaders must be tough on terrorism or risk scaring off tourists.
Like Jim.
According to Trump, Jim used to visit Paris every year but he doesn’t go anymore because he came to believe that “Paris is no longer Paris.”
