Bobulinski shared details of the October 23 interview with the Sinclair Broadcast Group, stating he was questioned for five hours with counsel present and six law enforcement agents. Bobulinski said agents examined evidence on three cellphones that he provided. “They do list me as a material witness within the entire FBI on their computer systems,” Bobulinski told reporter James Rosen, adding that the interview was a “very cooperative deep-dive into all the facts across that time period....

Former officer Michael Fanone appeared on CNN Monday morning to promote his forthcoming new book, Hold the Line. During the talk with Brianna Keilar, Fanone discussed the various inflammatory rumors that supporters of former President Donald Trump have spread about him in the wake of the Capitol riots, stoked, he claimed, by rhetoric from far-right and alt-right political leaders. “Rhetoric from these politicians combined with some of the alt-right or right-wing propaganda, people believe that stuff,” Fanone said....

The fact that Bryant punched the 6-9 Walker isn’t new information. There are stories from 2002 about the incident happening with then-Lakers coach Phil Jackson saying at the time, “It’s just kid’s play, it’s juvenile stuff.” He said the two were horsing around on the team bus and it resulted in Walker leaving with a black eye.

But last Monday, the 59-year-old Taylor plunged the opening day of his trial into chaos, boycotting the hearing and firing his court-appointed lawyer, who walked out of the courtroom after receiving word that Taylor planned to represent himself. And though the trial (which is taking place at the International Criminal Court in The Hague) was expected to be a challenge, the disruption raised questions about how the process would work, and highlighted the difficulties in trying complex international cases....

Steven Fabrizio, 58, had previously pleaded guilty in July 2021 to one count each of third-degree sexual abuse and blackmail in a Washington, D.C., court. The third-degree count was originally a charge of second-degree sexual abuse, and Fabrizio faced up to 15 years in prison between the two charges. However, a plea deal reduced the charge to a third-degree offense for the Maryland-based Fabrizio. As part of this plea deal, Fabrizio had his original 30-month sentence reduced to 12 months after he agreed to also complete three years of probation....

Former NFL referee Gerry Austin told ESPN’s Mike and Mike that all 12 Patriot game balls were underinflated at halftime. The 12th football was not as underinflated as the other 11 — those were about 2 pounds per square inch (PSI) below the league-mandated 12.5-to-13.5 PSI range — but it still was underinflated by NFL standards.

In the latest Republican Voters Against Trump (RVAT) ad, Troye said Trump wants protesters to continue taking to the streets so that he can deploy federal forces, who she argued are being put in danger so Trump can appeal to voters. “He wants people out on the street,” she said. “The president claims to be for law enforcement. He is putting our law enforcement in harm’s way purposefully because he thinks it serves his agenda....

The Portuguese manager has had terms at clubs like Tottenham, Chelsea and Zenit over the course of his career. Most recently, Villas-Boas had been managing Chinese Super League club Shanghai SIPG, but resigned from his post this week after losing in the country’s FA Cup final to rivals Shanghai Shenhua. Now it appears he is leaving football to gear up for a greater challenge — running in the gruelling race over the new year....

Delgado was hired by the Trump campaign in August 2016, began her affair with Miller the following October and became impregnated by Miller the following month. Delgado alleges that Miller had initially informed her that he had separated from his wife. However, Miller hadn’t and was, in fact, expecting a child with her when Delgado realized she herself was pregnant with Miller’s child. Last December, Delgado filed a lawsuit against the Trump campaign for pregnancy discrimination, further, alleging that during her pregnancy, Miller told her that she couldn’t be seen “waddling around the White House pregnant....

JoAnne Shirley said her brother, Maj. Bobby Marvin Jones, is believed to have gone missing at Bach Ma Mountain in South Vietnam on November 28, 1972.

Yes, that Chris Evans. For a year and a half, the 39-year-old megastar (he turns 40 on June 13), best known for playing Captain America in the Marvel movies, has been quietly working the halls of the Capitol, occasionally in person, in an effort to persuade senators and representatives to put aside their hyper-partisan hyperbole and explain, in under two minutes, their views on politics and policy to a new generation of young potential voters....

“Today the United States is launching enhanced counter-narcotics operations in the Western Hemisphere,” President Trump announced yesterday. The military, the president said, “will increase surveillance, seizures of drug shipments, and provide additional support for eradication efforts that are going on right now at a record pace.” “These additional forces will nearly double our capacity to conduct counter-narcotics operations in the region,” Defense Secretary Mark Esper said. The president’s announcement comes when the White House has also ordered additional military troops on the Mexican border, a move that military sources and observers say will also push the armed forces to engage in more domestic intelligence collection, an activity that is highly controversial and tightly controlled....

Mikhail Kasyanov told Newsweek that protests across the country would gather pace in the coming months because Putin’s decree will alienate him from those who had backed him until now. Since the start of Putin’s full-scale invasion on February 24, the Kremlin had repeatedly assured the Russian population that its forces would only need professional troops to prevail. But now the conflict viewed on state television at home has taken on a new dynamic....

Andrew Coffin, the executive director of the famed Reagan Ranch, told Newsweek he spent the night with three other staffers in sleeping bags in the former president’s Secret Service command post, one of seven structures threatened by the fire. The men have been hosing down the structures, testing sprinklers, laying out hoses and preparing fire hydrants for use should flames get too close. As of 4 p.m. Tuesday, flames were roughly a half-mile away, according to Coffin....

The observation was made using the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world’s biggest particle accelerator. It works by accelerating two beams of hadrons—protons or ions specifically—around and around in a 27-kilometer circle before smashing them into each other at nearly the speed of light. Afterwards, extremely sensitive detectors are used to look at what happened in the fractions of a second following that collision. The idea is that high-energy collisions of particles can temporarily produce rare, exotic particles we don’t ordinarily see, and these rare particles can tell us about some of the most fundamental characteristics of our universe: Where mass comes from, for example, and what dark matter and dark energy are....

Over the last 40 years, the Arctic’s summer sea-ice extent has dropped by a staggering 40 percent, scientists say, and now the famous Polarstern research vessel has left port in Bremerhaven, on Germany’s North Sea coast, and is heading to the marginal ice zone north of the Svalbard Islands and off Greenland. The Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) for Polar and Marine Research said in a statement on Tuesday: “Today, the research vessel Polarstern will depart on a seven-week-long voyage to the Arctic, where the onset of summer also marks the beginning of the annual sea-ice melting....

The statement, which highlights a systematic review on screening for vitamin D deficiency, concludes that there is still insufficient evidence to prove that routine vitamin D screening benefits community-dwelling, non-pregnant, asymptomatic adults and therefore does not recommend it. “This is a call for further research to determine a screening recommendation,” John B. Wong, MD, USPSTF member and chief scientific officer of the department of medicine at Tufts Medical Center, tells Verywell....
