Overnight Briefing & General Reality Check - Jan 28, 2021

When you first heard about President DONALD TRUMP's Diet Coke button on the Resolute desk in the White House's Oval Office, you might have wondered what you'd use it for if it were your office. And it's JOE BIDEN's problem now. Some people have suggested ice cream or perhaps coffee, but apparently there are actually two of what they call "usher buttons" in the Oval Office, one at the Resolute Desk and the other next to the chair by the fireplace. So now the question becomes --what WOULD you use 'em for?

COVID update: A new Spanish study has revealed that some early warning signs of a coronavirus infection are swelling of your tongue, and a burning sensation on the palms of your hands or soles of your feet. Some people also reported ulcers or a patchy, white coating on the tongue, according to the study. Nearly half of the patients in the study reported one or the other of the symptoms.

Despite the pandemic, CBS has announced that they'll be doing another “Love Island” --the third season-- this spring in Hawaii. Season two of the show had around two million viewers. CBS sez the new season will reportedly follow strict COVID procedures on the Hawaiian islands, which have suffered a major economic crisis due to a collapse in tourism. Head HERE to put your name in for the series.

And congrats to PAMELA ANDERSON, who's tied the knot for a fifth time, this time to her bodyguard, DAN HAYHURST, on Christmas Eve while at her home on Vancouver Island. The NY Post's Page Six says Pam had been dating Hayhurst after divorcing husband JON PETERS, to whom she was married for only 12 days. Here's the quiz: name all of Pam's husbands...
(1) TOMMY LEE, with whom she shares sons Brandon, 23, and Dylan, 22.
(2) KID ROCK, whom she married and divorced Kid Rock in 2006.
(3 and 4) music producer RICK SALOMON whom she married twice, first in 2007, which ended with an annulment, and again in 2013.
(5) JON PETERS in January 2020. Peters claimed Anderson dumped him after he paid off her debts, which Anderson denied. He then went back to his ex-fiancée, whom he had left for Anderson.
