Nauert withdrew because she had a nanny who, per one person familiar with the process, was in the country legally but didn't have the proper work visa. @anniekarni and me https://t.co/7xsUHQtB0G

Nominations for Dr. Ronny and Heather Nauert follow similar patterns: 1) The White House nominates someone who is, at best, underqualified. 2) Fails to vet them thoroughly before announcing it. 3) Finds all kinds of humiliating skeletons. 4) Leaves them no choice but to withdraw

Telegraph may feel obliged to report what Fox says even if his comment that politicians ‘should park ideological issues’ is beyond self-parody. However, to suggest that his comments will provoke a ‘fierce response’ from Brussels is amateurish journalism. He will be ignored. https://t.co/rRN7ZqHZef

This is the Tory legacy.
This is Cameron’s legacy.
They set the country on fire for a party issue.
They scapegoated immigrants and the EU and fanned racism.
They imposed austerity and drove people to despair for their own profit.
This is their doing.https://t.co/5GgylrNE06
