As purveyors of mis- and disinformation related to the 2020 elections have turned their attention to a partisan audit of ballots in Maricopa County, Arizona, one website has played an outsized role in promoting the story and spreading related false claims — The Gateway Pundit. According to NewsGuard’s analysis of data from NewsWhip, a social media intelligence company, The Gateway Pundit — a Red-rated (meaning generally unreliable) conservative news and commentary website with a history of advancing false claims — has published 263 articles about the audit of Maricopa County election results between when U....

The manager was putting no timeframe on how long his goalkeeper would be missing but the fact of the matter is that it’s going to be weeks rather than days. Adrian, signed as a back-up after his West Ham contract expired, is a vastly inferior goalkeeper in all aspects to Alisson but will have to come in and deputise nonetheless. Liverpool’s run to the Champions League title and second place in the Premier League was predicated on a mean defence first and foremost, with only seven conceded in the top flight by the halfway mark last season....

The Indonesian Navy’s KRI Nanggala 402 disappeared on Wednesday during a training exercise and officials said an electrical failure may have left the submarine unable to resurface. The 44-year-old vessel is believed to be around 60 miles north of the island of Bali, where an oil slick and the smell of diesel fuel were reported. Fears have grown that the vessel may have sunk below its collapse depth, making it vulnerable to implosion due to the pressure, and that oxygen supplies may run out as early as Saturday morning....

An obvious misspelling of “secede” pairs alongside a blatant reference to the Confederacy in Wallace’s since-deleted tweet. On Saturday afternoon, the GOP congressman wrote that Mississippi needed to “succeed [sic] from the union and form our own country.” Voters approved a new state flag featuring a magnolia flower last week after voting to remove the Confederate battle flag symbol from its flag in June. Wallace later backtracked his remark on Wednesday and tweeted an apology....

But, the new modes and new characters help make the new meta more manageable for older players, and for the newer ones, it’s quite accessible. Even though Overwatch 2 on the surface looks and feels like the first game, players will still make mistakes because it plays quite differently. Meaning some characters have been reworked and are no longer what they are, and they’re in a different class. This list will give players a clear idea of some common mistakes that they should avoid....

Kentucky Senate President Robert Stivers, a Republican, is a sponsor of Senate Bill 228, which was introduced in the state senate last week. The bill proposes amending existing legislation that requires a sitting governor to appoint a replacement for a departing U.S. senator to remain in office until the next election cycle. Under Senate Bill 228, the sitting governor would be required to pick a replacement for that departing U....

The assault rifle used in the Dayton shooting, where nine people were killed in less than one minute, was obtained legally. An AK-47-style assault rifle was also used in the El Paso shooting where 20 were killed. The shootings have led many politicians, Republicans included to demand that Senate reconvene to pass gun control legislation. Congress passed a wide gun control bill earlier this year, the Bipartisan Background Checks Act of 2019, with support on both sides of the aisle, but Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell essentially blocked the bill from moving forward and coming to a vote....

“I said several weeks ago that if the president took a position on a bill so that we knew we would actually be making a law and not just having serial votes, I’d be happy to put it on the floor,” the Kentucky Republican told conservative talk radio host Hugh Hewitt Tuesday. “And the administration is in the process of studying what they are prepared to support, if anything.”...

. . . Thanks to Nickelodeon. The Bears are going home after a 21-9 playoff loss at the hands of the Saints in a pretty non-entertaining game that saw Trubisky go 19-for-29 passing for 199 yards and a touchdown.

In the first game, the 20-year-old local hope fought neck-to-neck with the former world No. 1.

Mkhitaryan was hurt in the 61st minute of Arsenal’s 4-1 win over the Russian side in the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final on Thursday. The January arrival from Manchester United missed Sunday’s 3-2 win over Southampton and will not be available for the return fixture against CSKA on Russian soil.

The Glow Squid is a passive mob found in aquatic regions of Minecraft. Interestingly, it was added after winning a community vote in 2020 that determined what new mob would be added to the game. As the name suggests, the Glow Squid features a design similar to real-life squid, except in a more blocky form. However, this mob gives off bioluminescence, which makes it quite beautiful to look at underwater and sets it apart from the regular squid, another mob present in Minecraft....
