Stormy Daniels and Michael Avenatti have parted ways—days after a federal judge tossed her hush-money lawsuit against President Trump and his former fixer, Michael Cohen

The porn star and Avenatti, her ex-lawyer, announced their split in a pair of tweets. “I have retained Clark Brewster as my personal lawyer and have asked him and his firm to review all legal matters involving me,” Daniels wrote.

Avenatti, who is now representing women accusing R. Kelly of sexual assault, responded with a statement of his own.

“We informed Stormy Daniels in writing that we were terminating our legal representation of her for various reasons that we cannot disclose due to the attorney-client privilege.”

Abysmal...

De Blasio has grown fond of saying, “There is plenty of money in this world. It’s just in the wrong hands” as a means of justifying his expansion of government into every aspect of life. No word if he counts he and his wife in the “wrong hands” camp after a recent media report suggesting the duo has squandered more than a billion dollars of unaccounted-for taxpayer dollars.

If neither his diminished fanfare nor his abysmal record is enough to convince de Blasio to abandon White House ambitions, the polls should. 

His early campaign visits to Iowa aren’t moving the needle one iota, with a new poll from the vaunted Des Moines Register putting him at zero percent – tied for dead last. 

Nationally, the picture is even worse. A Monmouth University survey showed Hizzoner as the only Democrat in the packed field with a net negative rating – an impressive feat.

But de Blasio isn’t taking the hint. He’s on the campaign trail, taking shots at his predecessor, Michael Bloomberg, who was eyeing a 2020 bid before concluding there was no path for a centrist in today’s hard left Democratic nominating process.

De Blasio didn't do well in NY in any large project, then turned into taxing the people for project he neglected for years. Now ne is trying to run the scam on a larger scale.

There are more centenarians-aged 99 or older-living on Japan's Okinawa islands than anywhere else in the world. Okinawa is one of the most well-known Blue Zones-places with the world's longest-lived and healthiest people.

People living in Okinawa have especially low rates of obesity and chronic diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. The secret to their good health? Experts suspect it has to do with their local diet-the Okinawa diet.

The Okinawa diet emphasizes:

• High-fiber carbohydrates, make up more than half of Okinawans’ plates
• Green vegetables such as leafy greens and cabbage
• Seafood and seaweed such as kombu and hijiki
• Small amounts of red meat, especially pork
• Shiitake mushrooms and bitter melon, a bitter gourd-like fruit
• Jasmine tea

Collusion...

Less than four months after becoming president, Donald Trump fired the director of the FBI for handling an investigation into his associates in a manner he did not like.

All of which left the FBI feeling a little freaked out. In an interview  the bureau’s former deputy director Andrew McCabe reveals that top Justice Department officials seriously considered trying to remove Trump from office. 

Specifically, McCabe says that they discussed lobbying members of the Trump administration to invoke the 25th Amendment, a constitutional provision that allows cabinet officials to initiate a procedure for removing presidents for office on grounds of incapacity (as opposed to the “high crimes and misdemeanors” standard officially required for impeachment).

“There were meetings at the Justice Department at which it was discussed whether the vice president and a majority of the cabinet could be brought together to remove the president of the United States under the 25th Amendment,” 

In the course of said meetings, McCabe claims that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein earnestly floated the idea of wearing a wire during conversations with Trump, so as to buttress the case for the president’s unfitness for office.  Rosenstein’s claim that he was joking.

Facebook has removed several ads placed by Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s presidential campaign that called for the breakup of Facebook and other tech giants.

The ads, which had identical images and text, touted Warren's recently announced plan to unwind "anti-competitive" tech mergers, including Facebook’s acquisition of WhatsApp and Instagram.

The Massachusetts Democrat has staked out an aggressive stance toward Silicon Valley's biggest companies, going further than many of the other Democratic 2020 candidates.

The affected ads, which included a video, directed users to a petition on Warren’s campaign website urging them “to support our plan to break up these big tech companies.”
