Earlier this week, Representative Bennie Thompson, who serves as the chair of the House committee investigating the January 6 Capitol riot, told reporters that the committee has reached a “general agreement” that it will make some criminal referrals to the Department of Justice (DOJ). Thompson did not specifically say who will be named in the criminal referrals. While speaking about the recent remarks by Thompson on The Stephanie Miller Show, hosted by the Political Voices Network, Kirschner said that the Justice Department will not be able to “ignore” the criminal referrals but noted that “they won’t be bound by it....

Taking to TikTok, the “Kiss Me More” hitmaker poked fun at a viral moment from the trial in which the Aquaman actress told the courtroom that her dog got stung by a bee. “It’s honestly hella sad ‘cause like, she’s a puppy, my dog. And I’ve had her for like a week and a half, maybe two weeks now. And she like, was just running around in the grass, and she steps on a bee,” Doja, 26, said in the now-viral TikTok video....

The rapper and singer, whose real name is Amala Ratna Zandile Dlamini, celebrated her birthday on October 21. She posed for topless photos during the party, which she was proud to share the following day. “IF ANYBODY GOT NUDES OF ME FROM LAST NIGHT PLEASE SEND CUZ I WANNA POST EM,” the artist tweeted on October 22. Doja Cat followed the tweet with an image of herself topless alongside her friends....

There are seven more talented than lucky teams still undefeated, and we're luckier, because three of them play in prime time this week. Better yet, the scheduling gods have made it so that 3-0 vs. 3-0 was saved as the best for last: Games of the Week Miami at New Orleans (Monday, 8:40 p.m., ESPN) . Unfortunately, neither of these fine, fun, warm cities will host the Super Bowl this season....

“Today it’s very hard, as you know, to find somebody with a lot of prior NFL head-coaching experience,” Dolphins owner Stephen Ross said in a statement. “You take some of the great coaches, they had to start somewhere and they’ve done great. So you can’t say that you have to have NFL experience to be a great head coach. That would help, but the great ones are all under contract and I can’t really negotiate with them or try and lure them to Miami unfortunately....

Miami found itself asking just that after Rodgers orchestrated a game-winning drive to give Green Bay a 27-24 victory Sunday. MORE: Week 6 scoreboard | Photos | Injury roundup It was a crushing end to a game the Dolphins almost had wrapped up despite having the ball for just 23 minutes and committing three turnovers. Green Bay twice gave up leads and trailed 24-17 before Rodgers directed consecutive drives of 68 and 60 yards for the victory....

This will make a big battle between two first-round quarterbacks taken back-to-back in the 2020 draft, Dolphins No. 5 overall pick Tua Tagovailoa and Chargers No. 6 overall pick Justin Herbert. Tagovailoa has enjoyed an efficient breakout season with new wide receiver Tyreek Hill. Herbert will have both top wide receivers Keenan Allen and Mike Williams healthy together for the first time since Week 11. Here’s everything to know about betting on Dolphins vs....

Unlike Tidwell’s touchdown catches, Dwyer scores goals. But much like Tidwell, Dwyer has turned down a contract offer, choosing instead to let his play do the negotiating. Right now, much like Tidwell was famous for, Dwyer’s game is screaming “Show me the money!” The U.S. national team’s newly minted goal-scorer has taken full advantage of his call-up for the Gold Cup, scoring goals in each of his first two matches for the U....

State Rep. John Kavanagh said Republicans were concerned about the automatic sending of ballots, suggesting this could increase voter fraud if delivered to people who had died or moved home, or push people who were “uninformed on the issues” to take part in elections. Republicans in the Arizona legislature are attempting to impose a number of voting restrictions, including narrowing its voting window and limiting the state’s vote-by-mail system....

August is the time when families with school-aged children prepare for the start of another academic year. This usually means shopping for supplies, clothes and shoes for growing girls and boys—and a visit to a health care provider for annual exams, sports physicals and recommended vaccines. August is even National Immunization Awareness Month to coincide with these visits. Well, insert 2020. Some things are different this year, but vaccines are the same—still recommended and still effective....

In New York on Sunday, Schumer declared, “It’s not safe for the Senate to meet in session. It’s not safe for the [confirmation] hearings [of Judge Amy Coney Barrett] to go forward.” And in response to the reasonable suggestion that the confirmations hearings simply be taken online, Schumer turned the phrase, “A virtual hearing is virtually no hearing at all.” Of course, Americans everywhere have had to meet virtually this year for a wide variety of purposes—including fundamental, constitutionally protected purposes such as the free exercise of religion....

In the temporal world, Chopra’s tough tactics tend to work. He filed a $35 million libel suit last year against the Weekly Standard, the Rupert Murdoch-owned political magazine, for a story that claimed, among other things, that he had hired a San Francisco prostitute on three occasions in 1991. The prostitute later recanted her story. Last June the magazine printed an apology, saying the story was false, and agreed to pay Chopra’s legal fees....

To repeat, though: He was a transfer. He enrolled at Indiana University in 1974, decided in short order Bloomington wasn’t for him, and went home until he decided on a school that was more suited to his temperament. Are we to think less of him for this?

“…It is long past time to arrest Donald Trump for his obvious crimes, his ongoing crimes. Crimes to which he has confessed,” Kirschner said in a video he posted to Twitter. “He actually said ‘I took these documents’ more openly and more transparently than other presidents. It is not like there is some challenge in proving that Donald Trump took the documents openly and transparently.” Kirschner said that the Department of Justice (DOJ) is treating Trump differently as it continues to investigate his mishandling of classified documents, which were seized by FBI agents in August following an approval from Attorney General Merrick Garland....

Trump made the comments in an interview with Fox News’ Greg Gutfeld where he also said Biden was being given “soft questions” by the media that he wasn’t answering well. The former president has frequently criticized his political opponents for the use of teleprompters and complained about having to use them himself, though Trump has read from teleprompters in the past. Trump said: “When I see a man say a few words, not necessarily well, and turn around walk away....

Throughout his tenure, Trump has prompted controversy with the use of his clemency powers in regard to people with ties to him—and there has been speculation he could so again. He has previously pardoned some associates who were caught up in the Russia probe, however Rick Gates, deputy chairman of Trump’s 2016 campaign, has not been graced by such action. Gates was sentenced to 45 days in jail and three years of probation in 2019, having earlier pleaded guilty to federal conspiracy and false statement charges in a case stemming from the Mueller probe....

With such adoration typically aimed at the former president by his devoted base, the sound of boos at a recent Alabama rally was an unfamiliar one. Both he and Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) were the targets of such jeers—Trump after encouraging people to get the COVID vaccine and the congressman for suggesting people should move on from the 2020 election. The latter has since backtracked on his comments and said he continues to support audits of the last election following the instantaneous backlash....

He began with how much he loves New York but also how New York can never be great under its current leadership. “I love New York,” he tweeted, “but New York can never be great again under the current leadership of Governor Andrew Cuomo (the brother of Fredo), or Mayor Bill DeBlasio. Cuomo has weaponized the prosecutors to do his dirty work (and to keep him out of jams), a reason some don’t want to be…“Trump mentioned taxes and energy costs, plus the “nearby states” who are fracking for oil and creating jobs by the thousands, but he never mentioned those states by name....

In the statement, the former president described the closure of Chicago schools as “devastating,” adding that “Democrats are congregating in mass tomorrow to fan the flames of a divide that THEY created, while our kids sit at home watching their futures vanish.” “Educate our children in person or give every dollar spent on education directly to the students so they can get out of these failing government schools!” Trump continued....

The president of the United States insists the ball is “on the one yard line!” Whether this is a sports argument or a political disagreement might depend on one’s perspective. Donald Trump tweeted Tuesday that he had spoken with Big Ten commissioner Kevin Warren about “immediately starting up Big Ten football.” MORE: College football Week 1 picks against the spread Trump made no mention of women’s volleyball, field hockey, men’s and women’s cross country or men’s and women’s soccer, which also were affected by the league’s announcement three weeks ago that it would not be staging fall sports competitions during their customary calendar windows because of continued concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic and its possible effect on athletes....
