He had joked in a tweet that “she was suspended for impersonating a comedian.” She replied to him via her late mother’s Twitter account: “I mean… you stole that joke, you a******. People have been posting that joke for hours, you hack. Look, please do a better job running this company....

One that attacks her health care plan we have previously described as straining the facts, though not exactly “false.” * Trade: A mailer showing a locked plant gate quotes Clinton as saying she believed NAFTA was "a boon" to the economy. Those are not her words and Obama was wrong to put quote marks around them. In fact, she's been described by a biographer as privately opposing NAFTA in the White House....

An ad sponsored by Gableman’s campaign features images of Butler’s face next to that of a black man convicted of rape, and it’s being compared to the Willie Horton ad from the 1988 presidential campaign. This ad falsely implies that Butler was responsible for freeing the rapist and allowing him to commit another sexual assault. Actually, Butler failed to win the man’s release (while representing him as a public defender)....

Russia has been trying to capture the city in Ukraine’s eastern Donetsk region for months, reportedly losing large numbers of soldiers and rapidly depleting ammunition and other supplies. Forces aligned with the Russian mercenary Wagner Group, founded by Russian oligarch Yevgeny Prigozhin, have reportedly been leading the assault. Though Russia has reportedly secured some marginal gains around Bakhmut in the past few weeks, recent analyses indicate that its prospects of continuing current operations against the city are dim....

The church posted a message on its website Tuesday, which said the beloved pastor had passed away due to complications of COVID-19. “We are all in shock and heart-broken. We find comfort knowing that he is rejoicing in heaven with his beloved Jesus. Certainly, he was welcomed with those beautiful words, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant’,” read the statement. Bentley founded the non-denominational California Christian church in August 1984 when he began teaching a small Bible study in a recreation center with 30 people....

The Internet isn’t one for sitting idly by, and as the NFL has clumsily dealt with the domestic and child abuse cases of Ray Rice, Greg Hardy and Adrian Peterson, so, too, have commenters taken to expressing their opinion through social media.

Ambitious goals like that from the franchise quarterback are great. Except when they’re not. Navigating Wentz’s return was always going to be a minefield for the QB and the Eagles. Of course, that goes for every return from serious injury, every return from an ACL, and every return from an ACL by the biggest piece of the team’s foundation. No one really wants to temper Wentz’s enthusiasm, but no one wants to risk sending him back out there when he isn’t ready, no matter how convincing he is or how much he has poured into getting back....

The Eagles announced Friday they are signing the running back to a one-year deal. Sproles, 36, considered retiring after an injury-riddled 2018-19 in which he played in only six games. But he said he’d give it another go if the “right team” called in June. It appears like Philadelphia is that team. “My heart is in Philly. That’s where I want to end my career,” Sproles said, via the Eagles’ website....

Philadelphia has drafted exceptionally well in recent years, with DeVonta Smith and Jalen Hurts leading the charge. This year, it has the No. 10 overall pick (via trade with the Saints), along with its own first-, second- and third-rounders. While their own pick will be 29th or lower, it’s still good capital for a team that will look to reload this offseason and distance itself from its quickly advancing division rivals....

“[It] needs to be done,” Tavarres said Monday, via ESPN. “Will there be backlash? Probably. I don’t think anyone has bought my jersey yet, so I don’t know if it’s going to be burned, but it’s a major issue and I’m definitely going to stand my ground for this one.” Well, that’s what Tavarres said initially, before his agent stepped in, apparently.

No offseason trade made bigger headlines than the blockbuster that sent nine-time All-Star Russell Westbrook from the Rockets to the Wizards for John Wall in a swap of high-scoring point guards.
