Couple of Fox News headlines today. The big, if you missed our J-towers in the morning on-demand show, the rewind show on Fox Local Yesterday. That's because on Fox Local, breaking news always comes first. And it has to. So they did a run our show last night at 9.30. But that's because yesterday, during the time that our show normally runs, President Trump fired Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Nome. After she told Congress the president approved a $220 million DHS ad campaign.

That's why she got the boot because he was standing by her. Trump says he never authorized that spending and didn't know about the ads. You don't snark on the president. Well, he says he didn't know about it. So it's, he said, she said, Oklahoma Senator, Mark Wayne Mullin is expected to take over March 31st. Does this mean she's going to have to redo all the airport screens? Oh, when you stand at TSA, yeah, when you stand at TSA, she's like, I'm Kristi Nome. Welcome to the airport. Oh, I've never noticed that. But I also have been to the airport since James Jr., so maybe that's why. But she was given a different role. Did you hear that? Yeah, she got a different position. I, yeah, she wasn't fired. She was here to notice. Is it like an envoy or something? Yeah, a special envoy for a security initiative called the shield of the Americas. Which I thought was interesting. Like if you're firing at her because you're so mad at her, not happy with her work or whatever, why are you giving her another job? Well, there, well, that's why that's why I had said,

he was, when she was going through all that Congress hearing stuff, and everyone's like, she's got to get, he was standing by her to a point. He was like, no, I'm not going to fire her. But she, um, like, it wasn't a firing like in many other worlds. You're fired. And we wish you well. And we wish you well in your future endeavors. This was like, they fired her. And then she was able to come out speak, talk about the new role. And, you know, she got bumped to overnight. She got bumped to overnight. Yeah, that works. That's right. That's right. Daylight saving time begins Sunday and sleep experts say that losing that hour can disrupt your sleep and even impact health and productivity. Their advice starts shifting your bedtime a little earlier each night before the change. So the transition is not so. It's not going to help you just rip the bandaid off. Spring and forward is not fun. I mean, it is fun because it's not going to be dark at whatever. But you, you're, you're, you're going to three days are going to be messed up.

I think that's, that's what it takes me to like the third day. Yeah. To finally get adjusted. But I don't think you can ease into it. I think it's just you ripped the bandaid. You're the first day is like this moon. And, you know, I think it's way worse, right? I mean, Monday's way worse than it is in the fall. Falling back isn't so hard, is it? No, because you, you do feel like you're getting that drower. Yeah, you almost get bored. You're like, I have too much time today. Like for me, Monday morning, to when my alarm goes off at 2 a.m., my mental alarm will be 1 a.m. Because it's an hour or sooner. So that takes a little getting used to. I always feel bad for parents, because that's really hard for kids to adjust. And if you finally got your kid on like a good sleep schedule. And then it's like, that totally wrecked now. What was it, British Columbia? They're not doing it anymore. They're springing forward right now. And they're never looking back. They're like, this is where we live. Oh, I had, I had one story here, wait a minute. This I thought was strange. A congressman in Florida thinks we should switch to half daylight saving time.

Instead of a permanent standard or daytime or daylight time, he wants to split the difference by having everyone shift clocks up 30 minutes and leaving them there. The big downside is we'd have, you know, a half an hour off time zones everywhere. Okay, he needs to just confuse everything. Imagine if it's like, wait a minute. So yeah, it would, it would, yeah, like 630 would have, it would be seven. You know what solves this argument? It's so weird. It is weird. You know what solves this argument though? We, it was invented for a reason for farmers, right? Yeah. Something like that. If there's not a reason for it anymore, if there's not a benefit, then that would be a reason to stop doing it. I'm telling you, I know it's a pain in the neck and it's, it's, everybody hates it. We would notice a media like come in some or midwinter. Something would be a weird, yeah, for sure. Yeah, it would not work out right. I don't think so. I didn't force. There you go. Steadiest day is that he wins the race. Are you running for office and have a message you want every voter in your district to hear?
