U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions has been fired after more than a year of unrelenting criticism from President Trump.
For more on this and other news around the world we turn to our Ro Aram…
Aram… not that unexpected, but surprising nonetheless...

That's right, Mark… Sessions' departure was widely expected to come soon after Tuesday's midterms.
In a letter to the White House on Wednesday, Sessions wrote he was resigning upon President Trump's request.
Sessions had endured repeated public attacks from his boss over his recusal from the investigation into alleged collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign.
The Russia probe has been a constant thorn in the President's side, and he blames Sessions' decision for opening the door to the appointment of special counsel Robert Mueller.
Sessions' exit marks yet another high profile departure from the Trump White House.
The 71-year-old was Attorney General for just under two years.
Trump tweeted Sessions' chief-of-staff, Matthew Whitaker, will be Acting Attorney General.
The departure also leaves unclear the fate of Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who appointed Mueller and has been overseeing his probe.
Whitaker, who has criticized Mueller's appointment, will reportedly be taking over that role.
