The former TCU defensive end is looking to finish is college career on a positive note after off-the-field issues derailed his time with the Horned Frogs. On Sunday, he announced he’s headed to Louisville after spending the 2014 season in junior college. Fields had a dominating season as a freshman at TCU, then was limited to three games in 2013 because of a one-game suspension and foot injury. He reportedly had multiple off-the-field issues and was dismissed from TCU before last season after an altercation with an ex-girlfriend....

In 2018, McCarrick was removed from public ministry over credible allegations he sexually abused an altar boy in the 1970s. The following year, McCarrick was defrocked by Pope Francis after an investigation by the Vatican confirmed he had sexually molested adults and children. McCarrick denied the charges in 2018, issuing a statement saying, “While I have absolutely no recollection of this reported abuse, and believe in my innocence, I am sorry for the pain the person who brought the charges has gone through, as well as for the scandal such charges cause our people....

Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine Thursday morning after sending troops to occupy eastern regions of the country—which were already partially controlled by pro-Russian separatists. The U.S. and Europe have responded with stringent financial sanctions targeting Russia, while promising weapons and other aide to Ukraine as it attempts to defend itself from Putin’s aggression. Michael McFaul, who served as the top U.S. diplomat to Russia from 2012 to 2014, gave his assessment of the situation during a Friday morning interview with MSNBC—predicting Putin’s decision would ultimately be seen as his downfall....

Only an animal would say a thing like that,” Trump said....

Verstappen was crowned World Champion at Suzuka after he put in a strong performance, finishing ahead of Charles Leclerc and Sergio Perez. Wet conditions forced a two-hour stoppage when the race was red-flagged after just three laps before it was determined the conditions were good enough for the drivers to go back onto the track. It led to confusing scenes at the end of the race amid uncertainty over whether full points would be awarded after only 28 of the 53 scheduled laps were completed....

The Red Bull star comfortably took victory in India last weekend to confirm his place among the sport's greatest names. Only Juan Manuel Fangio, Michael Schumacher and Alain Prost can match or better Vettel's career haul, with the former two the only men to match the 26-year-old's run of consecutive titles. With three races to go, success in Abu Dhabi — coupled with wins in America and Brazil — would put two huge records within Vettel's grasp....

With half of the season remaining, we’re guaranteed at least two teams with losses in the College Football Playoff. If the SEC West is as good as we think it is and Mississippi State or Ole Miss lose before the Egg Bowl, there will be one left: defending national champion Florida State.

With the Jays rapidly falling down the standings again — as everyone expected would happen — there’s been a serious push from fans (and some reporters) to immediately call up mega-prospect Vlad Guerrero Jr., who has been a home run hitting machine in Double A. Granted there’s salary considerations and other contractual weirdness due to baseball’s unions, but there doesn’t appear to be much of a downside at this point for either side....

McDowell’s comments came during a discussion on the Fox News program Outnumbered, in which panelists discussed the Medicare-for-All proposal—or single-payer health care—put forward by Democratic presidential candidates Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts. Several other leading Democratic candidates support variations of the universal health care plan. “More government control over your health, we’ve been there,” McDowell argued. “It’s called the Eugenics movement, where there was the forced sterilization of the mentally disabled, up until 1979,” the anchor claimed....

October 7, 1996: Rupert Murdoch launches FNC with Ailes, a former Republican strategist, NBC executive and host of his own MSNBC show, as its founding CEO. Only about 10 million homes have access, none of which are in major markets Los Angeles or New York. Sean Hannity is the only host from that year who is currently on the network’s prime-time roster. To boost access, Murdoch takes the unprecedented step of paying cable channels to carry his new network, while traditionally it is the cable and satellite companies that pay for access to channels....

The Trump administration trade official tried to argue during an interview on Fox News on Sunday that China was eating the costs of the tariffs without any effect on U.S. businesses and consumers, an assertion aligned with the president’s frequent insistence that the Chinese are paying the tariffs. But Wallace confronted Navarro with facts about the levies’ impact, along with a chart from Trump’s Department of Labor and Department of Commerce showing how the levies were correlated with higher prices for U....

The agency denied this was the case in a rare public statement on June 29. Citing sources speaking on condition of anonymity, The Record reported on Friday that Carlson’s communications were also not intercepted by “incidental collection....

Kemp, a Republican, has been at odds with the former president since late 2020, when he opted to certify Georgia’s election results after the state went to President Joe Biden, in spite of Trump’s repeated false claims that the election had been stolen due to widespread voter fraud. Trump later endorsed former Senator David Perdue as a GOP challenger against Kemp in November’s midterm elections, but he was defeated by a decisive margin....

On Friday, Noem announced the text of two anti-abortion bills she aims to pass in South Dakota. The proposed legislation follows the example of a controversial Texas law that leaves enforcement up to private citizens, who are entitled to $10,000 from anyone they report for carrying out or aiding an abortion after a fetal heartbeat is detected. The law in Texas, as well as the proposed South Dakota bill, makes no exception for pregnancies that result from rape or incest....

Last Sunday, a bipartisan group that included 10 Republican senators, announced a deal on major gun reform legislation in the wake of multiple recent high-profile mass shootings.

Hannity made the comments during his show Monday night after U.S. President Donald Trump labeled Baltimore a “disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess” in a series of attacks on Representative Elijah Cummings, a Baltimore Democrat and chairman of the House Oversight Committee.

As Carlson faced scrutiny for his comments about Putin in the United States, several clips from his show have been used in Russian news, and an apparent new memo alleges the Russian government has requested media, including RT, to play his clip.
