LOOKS LIKE NEWT’S GONNA THROW IN THE TOWEL AS EARLY AS NEXT WEEK!
Newt Gingrich is finally going to give up on his bid for the White House -- but it doesn't look like it will happen until next week. Two sources close to Gingrich told CNN that he'll officially quit the race on Tuesday in Washington, D.C. surrounded by his family and supporters, and he will endorse Mitt Romney. While he's yet to officially quit, Gingrich told a civic group in North Carolina yesterday that conservatives should unite to defeat President Obama and admitted that "it's pretty clear that Governor Romney is going to be the nominee." In a related development, Texas Governor Rick Perry, who was also once in the race for the Republican presidential nomination, switched his endorsement from Gingrich over to Romney.

 
THE SECRET SERVICE HOOKER SCANDAL HIT CAPITOL HILL YESTERDAY…
The Secret Service scandal hit Capitol Hill yesterday with Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano being grilled by senators about the agents involved in the prostitution episode in Colombia prior to President Obama's arrival there. Napolitano told the Senate Judiciary Committee that the prostitution incident in Colombia, which may have involved up to 20 women, appeared to be an isolated case.

TSA AGENTS IN L.A. RAN A DRUG RING?!
The TSA is in the news again -- defending their decision to pat down a four-year-old and after four current and former agents were charged with aiding drug smugglers. The incident with the four-year-old occurred in Wichita, Kansas. The four-year-old initially passed without incident, but then she ran over to her grandmother, who was awaiting a pat-down. The agents insisted the four-year-old get a pat-down, but she started to cry and resisted because she just learned about "stranger danger" at school. In a statement, the TSA said that they "reviewed the incident and determined that our officers followed proper screening procedures in conducting a modified pat-down on the child." Meanwhile in Los Angeles, trafficking and bribery charges were filed against four current and former TSA screeners for allegedly allowing drugs packed in suitcases to go through the screening process.

FREE WI-FI IN EXCHANGE FOR YOUR DOG’S POOP? SIGN US UP!
There are few things more disgusting than stepping in dog poop, and despite laws requiring owners to pick up after their pooches, many still leave the feces on the ground for the unsuspecting public. Well, one internet company in Mexico has come up with a new way to encourage dog owners to scoop the poop. The internet provider Terra has installed special waste boxes in 10 Mexico City parks, which allow owners to deposit their dog’s excrement in exchange for free wi-fi minutes in the park.  The boxes weigh the waste, and the more poop you put in, the more free internet time you get. Of course, this means owners with big dogs will benefit more than smaller pooches, but in the end, the plan benefits everyone!

THIS DUMBASS DRIVER HAD SOME FLARE ALRIGHT!
A New Hampshire teenager proved he's not the brightest guy around by showing his displeasure with a fellow driver by shooting off a flare gun ... inside his own car. Nicholas Ficher was flaming mad at the other driver for cutting him off at a toll booth, so he pulled out his weapon of choice and pointed it at the vehicle. His aim, however, wasn't true, and he ended up firing the flare gun into his own car, setting fire to the passenger seat -- which had a passenger sitting in it. A trooper caught up with the 18-year-old as he was trying to discard the gun. Ficher faces felony threat and reckless conduct charges.
 
WHEN RUNNING FROM THE COPS, IT’S SAFE TO SAY YOU SHOULDN’T TWITTER TAUNT THEM, JUST SAYIN’
She tried to tweet the system! A wanted woman in Texas was arrested Friday after she posted a Twitter taunt to police. Mahogany Mason-Kelly wrote: “I still got a warrant in Pearland…Those pigs will NEVER catch me!!!...NEVER!” But the 20-year-old clearly jinxed herself. Pearland police soon learned of the tweet even though Mason-Kelly didn't leave a hashtag, and they nabbed her at Lamar University, where she is a student.
