Lindell, a staunch Trump loyalist, has been a key promoter of discredited claims that the last presidential election was “stolen” in favor of President Joe Biden. He has alleged that China hacked the election to prevent Trump from winning, but the “evidence” he has brought forward has been consistently debunked by cybersecurity and election experts. Nonetheless, the businessman plans to keep on fighting for Trump and spending his money in the process....

Milbury said in a statement that he didn’t want his “recent remark” — he said during Thursday’s Capitals-Islanders game that it was nice that no women were around the Toronto bubble to “disrupt” players’ concentration — to interfere with those players’ focus. From The Associated Press’ Stephen Whyno: Milbury apologized for the comment Friday, saying he was trying to be “irreverent.” Critics, including multiple female media members, viewed the comment as openly sexist and just the latest example of Milbury’s and longtime hockey men’s mysogyny....

Pompeo appeared at the Republican National Convention Tuesday night delivering a speech via a prerecorded video package that was taped in Jerusalem. During his remarks, Pompeo said that Trump’s America First policy had made the U.S. a safer place. “It may not have made him popular in every foreign capital, but it’s worked,” Pompeo said. Secretary Pompeo praised President Donald Trump’s foreign policy moves, including relocating the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem....

Pompeo made the remarks on his personal Twitter account on Thursday. He had not tweeted about the events on January 6 from that account but had made a statement on the secretary of state’s official account.

Mikel joined Chelsea in 2006, making over 350 appearances for the club, but he has not featured at all under new manager Antonio Conte this season. The 29-year-old is now expected to be let go by the Premier League leaders and is seemingly on the verge of a move to France. “I saw Obi Mikel in London,” Rohr told Europe 1. “He is in advanced discussions with Olympique Marseille....

Milan eased the pressure on under-fire head coach Montella by routing Chievo 4-1 in Serie A action midweek. Milan 3/1 to beat Juve with dabblebet Suso, Hakan Calhanoglu and Nikola Kalinic were on target as Milan returned to winning ways in the league, having managed just one victory in six games in all competitions.

Milan have been linked with a move for Spanish winger Castillejo throughout the transfer window and announced his arrival via their official website. Castillejo joined Villarreal from Malaga ahead of the 2015-16 season and the 23-year-old has made 91 LaLiga appearances and scored nine goals for the club. It has been a busy transfer window for the Rossoneri, who also signed versatile left-sider Diego Laxalt on Friday. The duo join the likes of Gonzalo Higuain, Mattia Caldara and Tiemoue Bakayoko in moving to San Siro during the transfer window, while Milan have also been linked with an audacious swoop for Lazio’s much sought after midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic on an initial €40million loan that will become permanent next season....

The 4moms MamaRoo Baby Swing and RockaRoo Baby Rocker were recalled Monday because the dangling restraint strap pose a strangulation hazard to crawling infants when the swing is not in use, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). “When the swing or rocker is not in use, their restraint straps can hang below the seat and non-occupant crawling infants can become entangled in the straps, posing entanglement and strangulation hazards,” the CPSC said in a statement....

The visitors had seemingly slipped out of contention after a run of one point from four matches - including Saturday’s costly defeat to Derby County - left them outside the top six. And it looked as though their slim chances of still achieving promotion to the Premier League would be extinguished when they trailed to Lee Gregory’s goal at half-time on Tuesday. But City responded admirably to Gregory’s smart finish on the turn, even if they might have fallen further behind in the second half when the scorer went down in the area....

Garza completed a four-year contract with Milwaukee on Sunday, strengthening the top of the rotation and boosting the Brewers' hopes following a disappointing season. The deal includes an option and performance bonuses that could make it worth up to $67 million over five years.

Minecraft’s 1.9 ‘Combat Update’ focuses heavily on the mechanics of fighting, though there’s certainly plenty of other content included in the update as well. There are two major changes to the combat system, at least in comparison to the other combat changes. First, players are now able to dual-wield, or perhaps it’s more accurate to say players can hold items in both hands. The “dominant” hand is the only one that can perform an action (yes, players can change their dominant hand now)....
