MORE: The 2016 presidential candidates remind us of these athletes Ricketts responded to Trump on Wednesday. “If we had something to hide, you people would have found it by now,” Ricketts said (via CBS Chicago). “I have no idea (what Trump was warning of).” Ricketts has a point. According to USA Today, Ricketts’ mother, Marlene, contributed $3 million to Our Principles PAC, a “super PAC that blistered Trump” with negative ads, mailers and voter guides before the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire and South Carolina primaries....

The comments follow an announcement by Queen Elizabeth II in February that she wishes Camilla to be known as “Queen Consort”—instead of “Princess Consort” as was previously announced—when Charles becomes king. In a preview for the episode airing on Tuesday night, Morgan showed Trump discussing his relationships with, and opinions on, various members of the royal family. These included a clip where the former president described Prince Harry as “whipped”....

“Remember I closed our country to China way early much earlier than [Democratic House Speaker Nancy] Pelosi or anybody wanted it to happen,” Trump said in an interview on Newsmax, “including Dr. Fauci, who I always got along with pretty well but I usually did the opposite of what he wanted.” Trump also falsely claimed Fauci said a COVID-19 vaccine would take three to five years to create or “probably wouldn’t even happen....

Speaking at the North Carolina GOP State Convention, Trump criticized the Democratic president for reversing a slew of his immigration policies, allegedly tanking the economy, and pushing ahead with his “radical socialist” agenda. “Our border is wide open, illegal immigration is skyrocketing at a level that we’ve never seen before, and this is over the period of a few months,” Trump said. “Drugs are pouring in, gas prices are soaring, our industries are being pillaged by foreign cyber attacks....

The sleeping giant is not currently devouring gas or other matter. It lies in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy that neighbors the Milky Way and orbits a hot, blue star that is almost three times as big. The discovery has been likened to finding a “needle in a haystack.” “It’s incredible; we hardly know of any dormant black holes given how common astronomers believe them to be,” said co-author Dr....

When someone comes down with pneumonia, it can affect anywhere from a small portion of one lung to large parts of both lungs. When pneumonia is affecting both lungs, it is significantly more severe than pneumonia affecting only one lung. When you have pneumonia in one lung, your healthy lung can compensate while the lung with pneumonia recovers. However, when you have bilateral pneumonia, you don’t have the luxury of one good lung to take over....

A News Corp. spokeswoman declined comment. A Dow Jones spokesman wasn’t immediately available. Last spring, barely a year after taking the helm at Dow Jones, Zannino had a fateful breakfast with Murdoch that ended with the mogul declaring his intent to launch a takeover attempt. Murdoch’s aggressive bid left the controlling Bancroft family splintered and wallowing in recriminations, including some directed at Zannino, whom they suspected of favoring Murdoch’s offer....

These predictions come at a time when Americans are eating more fish than ever: nearly 16 pounds per person in 1989, up from 12 pounds in 1980. But that’s pretty skimpy compared with our consumption of beef (68 pounds) and chicken (65 pounds). Hence the seafood industry’s new goal - “20 by 2000,” or 20 pounds of fish per person by the year 2000. No controversy there: fish is one of the most virtuous protein sources imaginable....

“I think he did great,” Dr. Fauci gushed. “I’m a great fan of Brad Pitt and that’s the reason why when people ask me who I would like to play me I mention Brad Pitt. He’s one of my favorite actors. I think he did a great job.” The praise didn’t stop there. “I think he showed that he is really a classy guy when, at the end, he took off his hair and thanked me and all of the health care workers,” Fauci added, referencing Pitt’s personal shoutout at the end of the skit....

In an interview with Vanity Fair, Dr. Anthony Fauci said at times he felt “overwhelming” stress in dealing with the daily deluge of emails and phone calls from media, senators, and congressmen, and admitted he sometimes sleeps as little as two hours a night. Media analysts have noted the differences between his sober assessments of the scale of the COVID-19 crisis at White House press briefings with the initially upbeat views of the president who once said that he hoped the U....

“Santa is exempt from this because Santa, of all the good qualities, has a lot of good innate immunity,” said Fauci, who has been a leading figure on the White House Coronavirus task force. “Santa is not going to be spreading any infections to anybody,” he said ahead of Claus’ visits to millions homes across the world on Christmas Eve. Fauci noted that Santa Claus has also been taking COVID-19 seriously by limiting his public appearances, where children usually line up and sit on his lap, and practicing social distancing....

The ministry said in its intelligence update that the first tranches of men drafted in the mobilization had begun arriving at military bases, with Russia now facing “an administrative and logistical challenge to provide training for the troops.” “Unlike most Western armies, the Russian military provides low-level, initial training to soldiers within their designated operational units, rather than in dedicated training establishments,” the update said. “Typically, one battalion within each Russian brigade will remain in garrison if the other two deploy and can provide a cadre of instructors to train new recruits or augmentees....
