In other news, the United States is not planning to contribute any funding to rebuild Iraq now that the war on ISIS is essentially over.

Washington instead is encouraging private-sector investment and counting on Iraq’s Gulf neighbors, particularly Sunni regional heavyweight Saudi Arabia, to pour in money as part of a rapprochement with Baghdad meant to reduce Shi‘ite rival Iran’s influence in Iraq.

Meanwhile, former President George W. Bush says there's "clear evidence" the Russians interfered in the 2016 election. Everyone knows that, but he still has access to classified intelligence.

Finally, Fox News executive editor John Moody is not excited about the Winter Olympics, which begin tomorrow, because our Olympians are too black and too gay.

Unless it’s changed overnight, the motto of the Olympics, since 1894, has been “Faster, Higher, Stronger.” It appears the U.S. Olympic Committee would like to change that to “Darker, Gayer, Different.”
