One, this is just a headline from people magazine, quote, The biggest bombshells from RFK Jr.'s diaries: slicing off a raccoon's penis, flying with Epstein and listing the women he bedded.
"Joe is so goddamn competent he has almost made me rethink my position on Stanford University. Almost. In Joe, you've got a man with the talent of three men able to do the work of six men. I'm thrilled to see him succeed, and we're all succeeding because of him."
I have covered the NFL with professionalism and dedication throughout my career, and I stand behind every story I have ever published. When the Page Six item first appeared, The Athletic supported me unequivocally, expressed confidence in my work and pride in my journalism. For that I am grateful.
I can remember when I was tapped to go to 60 minutes I thought this was fantastic and I expected a lot of people would just come up and say, that's really great, I'm really happy for you, whatever the thing right is and then you realize after a while that not everybody was happy that I got this job. There were other people that wanted it. And so then you've all of a sudden made a bunch of enemies. And that's, it's just, you know, it's a snake pit.
Steve Witkoff obviously knew nothing about the Middle East or Vladimir Putin when Donald Trump chose him. And now that he's met Vladimir Putin, he still knows nothing about Vladimir Putin, as he demonstrated so embarrassingly today when Carl Quintanilla at CNBC asked him why Donald Trump decided to allow Vladimir Putin to take full advantage of the explosive increase in the price of oil and profit off of that new price.
The spotlight on the Trump administration's draconian immigration crackdown moved at least briefly today away from the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, as the White House rejoiced in the arrest of gay journalist Don Lemon. "When life gives you lemons," the administration posted on social media early this morning, along with an emoji of chains. Lemon was arrested under an 1871 law originally designed to combat the Ku Klux Klan and a 1994 law meant to keep protestors from. Blocking access to churches.
As has been widely reported, Pretti, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen and intensive care nurse who worked at the Minneapolis VA hospital, was killed Saturday morning by federal agents who reportedly shot him 10 times after they'd already wrestled him to the ground and disarmed him. Pretti's death - the second at the hands of federal agents in Minneapolis this month - and the Trump administration's lies about the circumstances that led to it have sparked outrage and protest, both in Minnesota and around the country.

Mr. Secretary, do you think that there's any responsibility among the ICE officers, though, to be able to deal with these things in a way that does not end in tragic death? Sorkin began. I mean, I do think that, you know, you blamed Tim Walz, you blamed Biden, you blamed lots of people that have not shot people! You go back and look at what's happened in Minnesota over the years Hold on a second, Duffy interrupted.
Independent journalist Terry Moran ripped President Donald Trump for his gross reaction to the bombshell arrest of a British royal in connection with the Epstein Files, suggesting he had more empathy for the royals than for Jeffrey Epstein's victims and survivors.
I am struck by Sean Hannity's words and struck because that position has been what I've been saying all along, what I've been saying since 1994. And I'm struck that the administration didn't start here. And I'm struck because, again, most Americans believe that if you are here illegally that you should be deported, as Sean Hannity said, people have been talking about this for years, give people money to get back home.
Zoom out: The last 10+ years have seen the hollowing out of storied publications like Sports Illustrated and Sporting News, the end of ESPN's magazine and Grantland and the erosion of local newsrooms' sports sections before the Washington Post announcement. The New York Times cut its sports section after it acquired The Athletic in 2022 - one of the few reporting-driven publications that has emerged in the current sports media landscape.
