Flag And Cross: Fox News Digs Deeper Hole with Segment Promoting Bud Light: ‘Easy Way to Say I Love My Country’

Spectator USA: Bill de Blasio’s wince-inducing separation announcement
Bill de Blasio and his wife, Chirlane McCray, are going through a peculiar "non-divorce" where they continue living together while dating other people.

The couple's decision seems underwhelming compared to de Blasio's controversial past, including mishaps like dropping a groundhog during an event. McCray, who was put in charge of a program for the mentally ill with $850 million, may not have much basis for complaint. Additionally, de Blasio has been ordered to pay nearly $500,000 for using his security detail on presidential campaign trips.
