Political Cornflakes: Trump uses White House turkey ceremony to riff on impeachment inquiry

As President Donald Trump spared two turkeys — named Bread and Butter — at an annual turkey pardon at the Rose Garden on Tuesday, he used the opportunity to joke about the impeachment inquiry. At one point, he said that the fowls were bred to remain calm under pressure, an important skill because “they have already received subpoenas to appear in Adam Schiff’s basement on Thursday.” [WaPost]

Topping the news: Gov. Gary Herbert announced a new conversion therapy rule Tuesday evening that has the support of both LGBTQ advocacy groups and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
