Fox News: Tulsi Gabbard has dropped out of the Democratic race, she hasn't actually dropped out yet

Fox News on Tuesday reported that Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard had “dropped out” of the race — but the network later corrected the report.

During a segment about impeachment, Fox News host Heather Childers said that Gabbard had quit the race.

“We do have Tulsi Gabbard, who has now dropped out of the Democratic race,” Childress announced before noting that Gabbard had spoken out against impeachment.

Several minutes later, Childers came back with a correction.

“And just to clarify, she hasn’t actually dropped out yet,” the Fox News host revealed.

Trump high-fives Fox News for advocating Senate dismissal of impeachment on 51 procedural votes

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump

“It’s my opinion as a lawyer that the Articles of Impeachment are defective on their face, which means I would like to see a Motion to Dismiss and have this disbursed without the necessity of a trial. I don’t think there should be a trial. I think it should be dismissed....

Not to be a buzzkill in the face of Trump's enthusiasm, but there's NO fucking Southern White House

@realDonaldTrump

Very good meeting on the Middle East, the Military, and Trade. Heading back to The Southern White House (Mar-a-Lago!). Updates throughout the day.

Trump's Dec 30th tweets...Chris Cuomo, Impeach Santa, Texas gun laws

1). High-fives Breitbart for attacking Chris Cuomo, offers to release some of his "dishonest" interviews that would "couple with bad ratings" and get him fired

2). Re-tweets Breitbart ad for "Impeach Santa" hats which were removed from the Breitbart site 4 days ago

3). Tweets another slam at Chris Cuomo

4). Sends "prayers" but NOT "THOUGHTS and prayers" to victims of church shooting, praises Texas gun laws

Trump is doubling down on the creepy stalker dude thing with Speaker Pelosi

I'm not going to post the tweets here, because he's pimping an OAN conspiracy theory clip. He put it out yesterday and said "Wow Crazy Nancy, what’s going on? This is big stuff!" and re-tweeted it today with "Any answers Nancy?"

Where is Melanie and her BeBest program when you need her?

This is some sick shit, even from this load.

Trump: NY investigations make me hate them even more than I should, also very bad for the homeless

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump

So sad to see that New York City and State are falling apart. All they want to do is investigate to make me hate them even more than I should. Governor Cuomo has lost control, and lost his mind. Very bad for the homeless and all!

Biden says he would not comply with a Senate subpoena in the impeachment trial of Trump

https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/elections/presidential/caucus/2019/12/27/joe-biden-would-not-comply-senate-subpoena-trump-impeachment/2759398001/

Former Vice President Joe Biden confirmed Friday he would not comply with a subpoena to testify in a Senate trial of President Donald Trump.

Leaders in the Democratically controlled House and Republican leadership in the GOP-controlled U.S. Senate are trying to come to terms for an impeachment trial. Biden said in early December he wouldn’t comply with a subpoena by the Senate, and confirmed that statement Friday in an interview with the Des Moines Register’s editorial board. He has not been subpoenaed, but Trump's allies have floated the idea.

Biden said even if he volunteered to testify in an attempt to clear the air, it would create a media narrative that would let Trump off the hook.

“What are you going to cover?” Biden said to Register Executive Editor Carol Hunter in response to a question. “You guys are going to cover for three weeks anything that I said. And (Trump’s) going to get away. You guys buy into it all the time. Not a joke … Think what it’s about. It's all about what he does all the time, his entire career. Take the focus off. This guy violated the Constitution. He said it in the driveway of the White House. He acknowledged he asked for help.”

The "Home Alone 2" Wikipedia page...this happened and was removed, or is fake. You decide.

I have no idea whether this happened, or was Photoshopped, but it's not on the page now, and still worth a laugh, fake or not.

Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc...name the worst thing you've eaten so far during the holidays.

I'm assuming that for most of us, that period between Thanksgiving and New Year's involves some combination of our own cooking, restaurants, meals at family members' homes, work or church pot lucks...it couldn't have all been delicious...could it?

Share your cautionary tales of fine holiday dining here.
