When the dust settled, the Dolphins now have two picks in each of the first three rounds as well as some future draft capital. With six of the first 102 selections, they will be able to keep adding depth to their already strong roster, but the No. 6 pick should guarantee them a shot at a blue-chip talent. So, what will the Dolphins do in this year’s draft? They’ll probably focus on building around Tua Tagovailoa....

Following further discussions with Don Cherry after Saturday night’s broadcast, it has been decided it is the right time for him to immediately step down,” Sportsnet president Bart Yabsley said in a statement Monday afternoon.

Whoa. For all the nice noises, the much-touted “strategic partnership” between Washington and Moscow has suffered serious damage. Gone are the cozy days of yore, when George W. Bush and “Vladimir” looked into each other’s eyes and spoke of religion. If the war in Iraq did anything, it was to inject a new realism into U.S.-Russian relations–and underscore the deep differences that will almost certainly continue to divide them....
“I must confess I don’t know him,” the City playmaker said at the pre-match press conference. “I don’t watch a lot of football when I’m at home.” But what’s certain is that De Bruyne’s manager Pep Guardiola knew all about the latest French attacking prospect long before he scored against his team. As far back as December 2015 – when Guardiola was being revealed as the City commander-in-waiting – German newspaper Bild was carrying a report linking Pep’s Bayern Munich with the player described as the “new Franck Ribery”....
The Dow’s stocks represent less than a third of the value of the S&P stocks and less than a quarter of the Wilshire’s. So why’s everyone so Dow-obsessed? I think it’s because the Dow, created in 1896, was well entrenched in the public psyche by the time that more useful market measures like the S&P and the Wilshire emerged in 1957 and 1974, respectively. The Dow’s kept its overwhelming mind share, its shortcomings notwithstanding....
It’s a choice made all the more difficult by conflicting signals from military brass, including the man who was confirmed this week as our nation’s secretary of defense: Mark Esper. Last year, Esper was one of dozens of current and former military leaders who contradicted the president’s rationale for the ban. Asked during a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing in April 2018 if he had received any reports indicating that transgender service members were causing disruption in the military, he confirmed, “Nothing has percolated up to my level....

CNN analysts said that new Maricopa County data shows Trump is gaining on Biden and, if votes continued that way, could even “meet and beat” Joe Biden in the state. Joe Biden is still winning the county, with 51.4 percent of the vote in the county but around 200,000 votes remain to be reported. “Trump has been meeting the thresholds he needs to at least pull even,” CNN said. “The biggest question is the composition of what’s left....
The FBI entered Trump’s Florida home with a search warrant on Monday looking for classified documents. According to the warrant, which was later unsealed, agents were investigating the former president for possible breaches of a number of laws, including the Espionage Act.

Many Christian pastors and self-described prophets have predicted that Trump will return to power before the next presidential elections. Some have claimed that the former president is still secretly in power and actually in control of the country. Vaughn made a similar claim, arguing that the U.S. would have “two presidents” following the 2022 midterm elections in November. “In four months Donald Trump takes back over the government,” Vaughn said during an episode of his online show Professor Toto’s Conservative College this week....

During Trump and Bill O’Reilly’s ‘History Tour’ event in Houston, Texas, December 18, the pair spoke on a host of different issues but most notably the January 6 Capitol Riots, and the ex-President repeatedly asserted that only one person—Ashli Babbitt, a “wonderful patriot”—died.
