'SNL' Trashes Trump And Vance's 'Disrespectful' Zelenskyy Takes In Cold Open
LOADING ERROR LOADING“Saturday Night Live” clowned President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance over their fixation on respect and gratitude during a contentious White House meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. In the show’s cold open, Trump (played by James Austin Johnson) thanked Zelenskyy (played by Mikey Day) for dressing like “casual Star Trek” to the Oval Office before pushing the Ukrainian president to say sorry to Russian President Vladimir Putin. As Zelenskyy tried to calmly respond to Trump, Vance (played by Bowen Yang) had an over-the-top reaction to the lack of thanks from the Ukrainian president. Later in the cold open, Trump began to lecture Zelenskyy about not wearing a suit to the meeting, reflecting a real-life ask by pro-Trump reporter Brian Glenn. Who shows up to the White House in a T-shirt and jeans like a garbage person?” asked Johnson’s Trump.

Trump's Federal Hiring Freeze Could Backfire, History Shows
Under Trump’s executive order, agencies won’t be able to fill most vacancies for 90 days, though military, national security and immigration enforcement roles are exempted. The freeze won’t be lifted at the government’s tax-collecting agency until the Treasury secretary and White House officials agree it’s “in the national interest” to do so. An immediate hiring freeze is a flashy way to signal that you’re serious about cutting the size of the federal government, which Trump claims to want to do. AdvertisementOne of the biggest problems, the GAO found, was that government-wide hiring freezes are “arbitrary” and “not based on sound analyses” of the workforce. Matt Rourke via Associated PressAdvertisementThe GAO’s estimation of hiring freezes hadn’t changed much by the time of Trump’s first presidency.

Joe Biden Makes One Last Bad Decision
LOADING ERROR LOADINGIn issuing preemptive pardons for members of the Jan. 6 committee, former military leaders and government officials, and family members, now ex-President Joe Biden made one final terrible decision. He also pardoned his brother James Biden and his wife, as well as his sister Valerie Biden Owens and her husband. In the statement announcing the preemptive pardons, Biden notes that they should not be seen as an admission that any crime was committed, nor should their acceptance be seen as an admission of guilt. Former President Joe Biden's final act as president included issuing preemptive pardons to people targeted for revenge by President Donald Trump. And yet Biden set just such a precedent in the plain self-interest of pardoning his family members.
