Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, a key impeachment witness against President Trump, retired from the Army Wednesday, with his lawyer citing "a campaign of bullying, intimidation and retaliation" for cutting short his military career. Vindman marked his retirement by tweeting a picture of himself in a rumpled plaid shirt working on a laptop -- a stark contrast to the many photos of him in uniform.

PULLMAN, Wash. -- Nick Rolovich is out as the Washington State football coach after refusing to become vaccinated against COVID-19, a requirement for all state employees, the school announced late Monday.
Washington Gov. Jay Inslee had set a deadline of Monday for thousands of state employees, including the Cougars' coach, to be vaccinated against the coronavirus or risk losing their jobs.
Assistant coaches Ricky Logo, John Richardson, Craig Stutzmann and Mark Weber are also out, the university said, after not complying with Inslee's proclamation that was issued in August.
"This is a disheartening day for our football program," WSU athletic director Pat Chun said in a statement.

Glenn Youngkin will headline 2021’s marquee election contest as the Republican nominee for governor of Virginia.
Results from the Virginia Republican Party’s “unassembled” ranked-choice contest cast on Saturday and tabulated Monday put Youngkin at over 50% of allocated delegates in the sixth round of tabulation after 13 hours of counting.
Youngkin, 54, is the former co-CEO of the Carlyle Group private equity firm who retired from the firm last summer. A first-time candidate, Youngkin has the ability to self-fund his campaign to a large extent and flaunts his political novice as keeping him free to make decisions without having years of political relationships to maintain.

Walgreens announced Tuesday it would be closing five of its San Francisco locations due to "organized retail crime," but police department data, local officials, and policy experts are casting doubt on that reasoning, according to a report published by the San Francisco Chronicle on Saturday. While the report said the chain has experienced retail theft, other factors like the COVID-19 pandemic and oversaturation of stores were cited as potential factors behind the decision to close the stores.

The only thing more laughable than Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg’s claim that spending two months on paternity leave counts as “work” is that the massive infrastructure bill in Congress would do anything to fix the supply chain crisis.
When asked on CNBC why the administration waited so long to take action, Buttigieg responded that “we’ve been working this issue from day one”.

As Politico reported, Buttigieg was “mostly offline” starting in mid-August, and only went on a media blitz after Politico disclosed the fact that he’d been on an unannounced leave.

That price tag doesn’t factor in the other costly measures approved by the House Ways and Means, Agriculture, Natural Resources, Oversight and Transportation committees last month.“This bill is crammed with green welfare subsidies, specifically for corporations and the wealthy,”
