Before he boarded Air Force One this morning for Florida, Donald Trump claimed his administration laid the foundation for the incoming one.

He did not mention Joe Biden by name, but told a small crowd of family members and supporters that he thinks the new administration has the foundation to do something really spectacular.

He made brief farewell remarks at Maryland's Joint Base Andrews before he boarded Air Force One for a flight to his Florida home.

Trump said he'll be watching from a distance and promised he will be back -- quote -- ``in some form.''

He did follow one presidential tradition and left a note behind at the White House for Joe Biden.

Trump wanted to be in Florida before Biden becomes president at noon.

Alberta court blocks separation petition over lack of First Nations consultation

An Alberta court has dismissed a petition related to separating the province from Canada, ruling the provincial government failed to meet its duty to consult First Nations before advancing the process. The court said any move toward separation from Canada could directly affect rights protected under Treaties 7 and 8, making consultation with affected Indigenous communities a constitutional requirement. Premier Danielle Smith criticized the ruling, calling it “wrong” and “anti-democratic.” Smith said the provincial government plans to appeal the decision immediately, arguing consultatio
