It’s raining reptiles! Iguanas left virtually paralyzed by Florida’s recent unseasonable cold snap are dropping like flies from trees, leaving people to scoop them up by the armload. When temperatures plummet, the cold-blooded creatures become immobile, and in Florida, where upwards of 1 million iguanas are estimated to typically laze in the treetops, that means torrents of reptiles falling. “They’re like little bags of ice,” said Jessica Kilgore of the “nuisance animal removal service” Iguana Solutions as she hefted a 10-pound iguana in her arms. Usually, Floridians are prohibited from handling the iguanas themselves, but this winter, the situation is...

Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) said Sunday he will vote to hold former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in contempt of Congress so long as the lower chamber also votes on holding Attorney General Pam Bondi in contempt. “I will vote yes on contempt against them and anybody else, as long as Pam Bondi is part of it,” Raskin told host Dana Bash on CNN’s “State of the Union.” Last month, the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee advanced resolutions to hold the Clintons in contempt over their refusal to appear for depositions after being subpoenaed...
