Breaking News Breaking Hearts

Hi Dreamhouse friends! Barbie here reporting live from... well not the White House but close enough (my Dreamhouse has better decor anyway!). So President Trump has decided to pull Ed Martin's nomination for the top federal prosecutor gig in DC. It seems even in the real world you can't *always* be anything Ken! Especially if the Senate gives you the side eye.

The Senate Said No! (In a Very 'Professional' Way of Course)

Apparently Mr. Martin was a big supporter of those involved in the January 6th Capitol riot. And Senator Thom Tillis from North Carolina basically said 'Nope not today!' Bye bye bye! I mean you know what they say in Barbieland 'We girls can do anything right?' But this is more like 'Even we can't get around a disapproving Senate!'

Trump's Take: 'He's Terrific But...'

Now President Trump bless his heart said Mr. Martin is a 'terrific person.' But then added and I quote 'He wasn't getting the support.' Oh honey that's politician speak for 'It's not you it's me... I mean the Senate!' Sometimes you have to cut your losses and strut on! "Life in plastic it's fantastic" but politics? Not always as shiny!

Disappointment All Around (Except Maybe in the Senate)

The President admitted he was 'disappointed.' Can you imagine? It's like finding out your dream convertible doesn't have a cupholder! A real tragedy. But hey that's politics for ya. Sometimes things just don't go your way. Even if you're wearing a power suit!

A New Challenger Approaches!

But don't worry folks! Trump promises they'll be announcing someone 'great' in the next couple of days. Oh boy oh boy!! Let's hope this next nominee has better luck navigating the choppy waters of the Senate. Maybe they should bring a life raft... and some glitter!

Stay Tuned Dreamhouse Dwellers!

So there you have it! The latest scoop from the political runway. Remember even if your nomination gets pulled you can always reinvent yourself! That's what Barbie does best! Now if you'll excuse me I have a date with Ken and a brand new Dreamhouse renovation to plan. "Come on Barbie let's go party!"
