Scot Bertram | Accepting the Gulf of America with Open Arms

Here are 3 big things you need to know—

 

One — A federal judge is allowing President Trump's employee buyout plan to continue.  Last month, Trump offered money to millions of federal employees to entice them to quit, but multiple labor unions filed lawsuits. The Trump administration took the win and announced the close of the buyout offer to any federal workers who might still be undecided. That original closing date was February 6.

 

Two ---- The White House says Wednesday's inflation report shows the Biden administration left them a mess to deal with.  The latest CPI report showed the annual inflation ticked up to three-percent in January.  Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the previous administration was not transparent in where the economy truly was. Of course, we all were told the Biden economy was perhaps the greatest in American history during the campaign. That might not have been the truth.

 

And number three —   Apple Maps plans to follow Google's lead and rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. The change is in response to the interior secretary officially adopting the name.   Google announced in late January that it would adjust and activated their change this week.
