President Trump visited the Florida panhandle city of Pensacola, close to the Alabama border, Friday night to rally for Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore, who has been credibly accused of sexual harassment and assault by multiple women, in a final push before Tuesday's special election. The president cast Moore as a champion of job creation who would "vote for our 'Make America Great Again' agenda." By contrast, he said, Moore's "liberal Democrat" rival, Doug Jones, is "completely controlled" by Democratic leadership and will "never, ever vote for us."

Trump also touted his own administration at length, boasting that he has cut more regulations than "Honest Abe Lincoln." He argued that his accomplishments come in spite of enormous opposition from "powerful forces in Washington," "very, very bad and evil people" who are "trying to sabotage our movement" for personal gain.

In a series of tweets Saturday morning, Trump claimed the rally was "packed to the rafters" with a "big contingent of very enthusiastic Roy Moore fans," though photos suggest the crowd had more fervor than size.

Update 5:56 p.m: The tweet linked above from The Washington Post's Dave Weigel unintentionally misrepresented the crowd size in the arena. President Trump called attention to more accurate photos, and Weigel has retracted his post and apologized for the error.

John Bolton is back... on Twitter.

The former national security adviser was apparently locked out of his government-tied account after what he claims was his resignation from the White House and what President Trump says was his firing. But as of Friday morning, he's back online and typing as many ellipses as his heart desires.

Bolton surprised the world (or at least a few people) Friday when he tweeted that he was back on Twitter and that everyone should "stay tuned" for some kind of backstory. It's unclear if that's the backstory to his firing or just how he got kicked off social media — the former of which would be relevant to impeachment investigators, who he was recently reported to be willing to testify for.

Then, because his two-month vacation from the internet seemingly led him to forget how to use it, Bolton retweeted himself, and then sent a more dramatic version of his first message about two and a half hours later.

Bolton, however, did not and still does not need any online liberation to speak with the House in its ongoing investigation of Trump's dealing with Ukraine. Kathryn Krawczyk

Sometimes President Trump's early-morning rants are even too absurd for his favorite morning show.

Trump called into Fox & Friends on Friday to complain about two weeks of public impeachment hearings and the women involved with them, and then, unsurprisingly, spun to talking about the border wall. But when he started ranting about some deterrents he's apparently added to his plans, he didn't have all the show's hosts onboard.

After acknowledging that it's been easy to break through the pieces of the wall that have already been built on the border, Trump claimed the "wall is electrified" — something that hasn't been reported yet. Host Brian Kilmeade's face immediately sunk, and he looked to his seemingly unconcerned co-hosts as Trump explained it's so "if anyone touches it," border agents can "get there within minutes." "You electrified the wall?" a seemingly shocked Kilmeade then asked, but Trump ignored the question and kept talking.

At the end of the very lengthy interview, the Fox & Friends squad tried to decipher just why Trump calls in all the time. Kilmeade chalked it up to "stress relief." Kathryn Krawczyk

President Trump had a few more things to say about women this morning.

Trump called into Fox & Friends on Friday for his regular bout of "stress relief," as host Brian Kilmeade called it, launching into a rant about ousted U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch, who testified in a public impeachment hearing last week. It was Trump who did that ousting more than six months ago, and yet he still had some complaints about how Yovanovitch apparently decorated the embassy during her tenure.

In multiple sentences, Trump explained how Yovanovitch apparently refused to hang up his picture at the embassy in Ukraine. "She said bad things about me, she refused to defend me," Trump complained. "This was not an angel, this woman." Then, stopping himself before saying "she wouldn't hang" his picture again, Trump relayed his interpretation of a conversation with a GOP lawmaker who interviewed Yovanovitch at her hearing. "Why are you being so kind?" Trump apparently asked. "'Well, sir, she's a woman. We have to be nice,'" he claims they responded.

Next up, Trump went after one of the women who's firmly on his side: White House counselor Kellyanne Conway. Conway's husband George Conway is one of Trump's top antagonists, and Trump on Friday blamed Kellyanne for that, saying "She must've done some bad things to him, because that man's crazy."

President Trump was having such a doozy of a morning that even the Fox & Friends team didn't seem to know what to make of it. Trump had phoned into the show only to give a lengthy and convoluted interview, at one point even hawking debunked conspiracy theories about Ukraine and prompting co-host Steve Doocy to gently try to get him to walk the comments back.

"It's interesting, it's very interesting, they have the server, right, from the DNC, from the Democratic National Committee," Trump began. Co-host Brian Kilmeade intervened to clarify, "Who has the server?"

"The FBI went in and told them 'get out of here, we're not giving it to you,'" Trump said by way of answer. "They gave the server to Crowdstrike, or whatever it's called, which is a company owned by a very wealthy Ukrainian. And I still want to see that server … Why did they give it to a Ukrainian company?"

Doocy intervened: "Are you sure they did that?" he asked carefully. "Are you sure they gave it to Ukraine?"

"Well, that's what the word is," Trump said.

The president appeared to be referring throughout to a debunked conspiracy theory that alleges the Ukrainians, not the Russians, meddled in the 2016 election. Nevertheless, the U.S. intelligence community has unanimously agreed that it was Russia that was behind the DNC hack; experts recently have gone as far as to say that efforts to redirect blame toward Ukraine are actually being engineered by Moscow.

Fiona Hill, the Russian expert who testified Thursday at the impeachment inquiry, had warned Republicans to "please not promote politically driven falsehoods that so clearly advance Russian interests," including the "fictional narrative" about Ukraine. Listen to Trump's comments below. Jeva Lange

Everybody has a dream. And if you have the top-rated late night talk show, your network might even bankroll it for you.

No matter what you think of Stephen Colbert's politics, his knowledge of J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle Earth in unimpeachable. New Zealand "is such a beautiful country, such a magical place, that I'm not surprised it was used as the locations for Middle Earth in the Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit trilogies," he said on Thursday's Late Show. "And as you may know, writer and director Peter Jackson cast me in The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug. I had the very important role of Lake-town spy. So when I was back in New Zealand, I sat down with my friend Peter and talked with him about the next logical step in the Lord of the Rings movie franchise."

Colbert's pitch to Jackson involved the human protagonist of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Aragorn. "What about this for a backstory?" Colbert asked. "My character is actually Aragorn's slightly hotter twin brother, Darrylgorn." Jackson declined to direct this literary abomination, of course, but he agreed to make a cameo. And Colbert had a trailer for his Darrylgorn spinoff ready to roll. It is quite silly, and it doesn't even make any sense, really — Aragorn would have been about 10 years old during the Hobbit movies Colbert's adult character appeared in, for example.

But that's beside the point. This is a self-referential, winking labor of love. The three Lord of the Rings movies and three Hobbit movies were box office hits, "and now, after 1,179 minutes, the real saga finally begins," the voiceover to the trailer intones. Watch below. Peter Weber

Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz did uncover a flaw in the FBI's initial application to surveil Trump campaign aide Carter Page in 2016, CNN and The Washington Post report, and Horowitz will include it in his final report on the origins of the investigation of Russian campaign interference and President Trump's campaign. Horowitz is expected to release his report Dec. 9 and testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee two days later.

A low-level FBI lawyer may have made "substantive change to an investigative document" used to secure a FISA court warrant to monitor Page's communications, and "the alterations were significant enough to have shifted the document's meaning," CNN reports. But, the Post adds, the line lawyer's "conduct did not alter Horowitz’s finding that the surveillance application" had "a proper legal and factual basis." In fact, Trump campaign officials have "corroborated Special Counsel Robert Mueller's finding that the Trump campaign planned some of its strategy around the Russian hacks, and had multiple contacts with Kremlin-linked individuals in 2016," CNN notes.

The unidentified FBI lawyer "altered an email to back up" an erroneous claim about having purported documentation, the Post reports, and "the employee was forced out of the FBI after the incident was discovered." Horowitz reportedly shared this information with U.S. Attorney John Durham, who is conducting a parallel investigation of the origins of the Russia probe, "and Durham is expected to pursue the allegation surrounding the altered document to see whether it constitutes a crime," the Post reports.
