#1 Scanning the horizon Dellinger drops his case against the administration:BY ALANNA DURKIN RICHER

WASHINGTON (AP) — The fired head of a federal watchdog agency said Thursday that he’s abandoning his legal battle against the Trump administration to get his job back, acknowledging he was likely facing a tough road before the U.S. Supreme Court.
Hampton Dellinger said he was dropping his case a day after the federal appeals court in Washington sided with the Trump administration in removing him as the head of the Office of Special Counsel, an independent agency dedicated to guarding the federal workforce from illegal personnel actions.
Dellinger’s removal could threaten efforts his office has made in recent days to challenge the Trump administration’s firing of thousands of probationary workers. It was not immediately clear who would replace Dellinger as special counsel.
“My fight to stay on the job was not for me, but rather for the ideal that OSC should be as Congress intended: an independent watchdog and a safe, trustworthy place for whistleblowers to report wrongdoing and be protected from retaliation,” Dellinger said in a statement.
