Today's edition of quick hits.
Today's edition of quick hits:* Hmm: "Corey Lewandowski, the controversial Donald Trump campaign manager turned CNN commentator, resigned from CNN on Friday afternoon."* Replacing Chris Christie wasn't too tough: "Donald Trump on Friday announced Vice President-elect Mike Pence would take over transition planning from Chris Christie, a move that sources say reflect a diminished role for the New Jersey governor."* Veterans Day: "President Obama laid a wreath in Arlington National Cemetery on Friday and used his final Veterans Day speech to deliver a plea for unity and to urge Americans to set aside political grievances and follow the example of those who fight the country's wars."* Flint: "A federal judge in Michigan on Thursday ordered that bottled water be delivered to residents of Flint, Mich., more than two years after the city's switch to an untreated source resulted in contaminated and undrinkable water."* Standing Rock: "The Obama administration is expected to approve the disputed easement for the Dakota Access pipeline as soon as Monday, according to two sources familiar with the timing -- dealing a major blow to climate activists even before Donald Trump takes office."* Climate: "North America is awash in warmth and there are no immediate signs of significant winterlike weather on the horizon. The United States experienced its third-warmest October on record, and warmth has continued through the first third of November."* Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and his allies "hope to benefit from Donald Trump's election win, believing it has saved them from the risks of an interventionist Clinton administration."Anything to add?
