“The Rittenhouse case has pulled back the curtain on profound cracks in our justice system—from deep bias routinely and unabashedly displayed by the judge to the apathy of officers who witnessed Rittenhouse’s actions and did nothing,” Crump said in a Friday statement. “If we were talking about a Black man, the conversation and outcome would be starkly different,” he added. “But we’re not…. We’re talking about Kyle Rittenhouse, a racist, homicidal vigilante who, like so many white men before him, not only escaped accountability but laughed in its face....
A bit after trading for Matt Hendricks, a fourth-liner with a bad contract , the Oilers acquired goalie Ben Scrivens from the Los Angeles Kings for a third-round draft pick. Scrivens replaces Devan Dubnyk, who headed to Nashville in the Hendricks trade. Scrivens, like Dubnyk, is a pending free agent, but he's probably an upgrade; Dubnyk was an average starter on a terrible team before this season, but Scrivens, 26, has a ....
Green was not cleared after sustaining a concussion against the Steelers in Week 17. MORE: Bengals-Colts betting lines | Preview | Playoff predictions Green’s season has been slowed by injuries. Earlier in the year he missed three games and parts of two others because of a painful toe injury. He also injured his biceps. So, the Bengals have to move forward without him. Look to see a lot of running back Jeremy Hill as the Bengals take on a Colts team has struggled offensively late in the season....
So far, thanks to TMZ, Mixon’s most public appearance of his first offseason in Cincinnati has been at a Future concert with current teammate Adam Jones. MORE: Mike Brown’s defense of Mixon rings hollow A picture with the former “Pacman” may not be the best look, given Jones’ own, different off-field troubles. When the Bengals announced Mixon as their second-round pick, he was naturally, immediately and correctly lumped in with Jones, Vontaze Burfict and others: players who might not have got that opportunity to play with other franchises around the league....
This week, it’s the Battle of Ohio as the defending AFC champion Bengals head to Cleveland to face the Browns at FirstEnergy Stadium. The teams enter the week trending in opposite directions, with the 4-3 Bengals on a two-game winning streak and the 2-5 Browns on a four-game losing skid. While the Browns’ current outlook may be bleak, they have been extremely successful against the Bengals in recent years. Cleveland has won four straight against its rival, though when the two teams met in Week 18 last season, Cincinnati rested key players in preparation for the playoffs....
The 25-year-old returned to England after Ghana shared the spoils 1-1 with Egypt in the final game of the 2018 Fifa World Cup qualifiers.

Pulisic joined up with the USMNT in the midst of a difficult spell at Chelsea, with the American struggling to crack the lineup at Stamford Bridge under Thomas Tuchel. He did shine, though, just before the international break in a FA Cup clash with Sheffield United, and Berhalter says the plan is to ease Pulisic back in throughout the two friendlies. What did Berhalter have to say about Pulisic? “It was a planned substitution,” Berhalter said....
The rules previously required candidates to have hundreds of thousands of individual donors in order to qualify, but the DNC on Friday removed the requirement for the February 19 debate in Nevada. Bloomberg had been ineligible to participate in past debates at least partly due to bankrolling his campaign with his own fortune instead of individual contributions. “To now change the rules in the middle of the game to accommodate Mike Bloomberg, who is trying to buy his way into the Democratic nomination, is wrong,” said Sanders campaign senior adviser Jeff Weaver in a statement....
On Twitter, the U.S. Senator from Vermont pointed to an “obscene” level of wealth inequality in the country and said the tax system should be overhauled in order to give people more access to food and health care. Sanders said on Sunday: “Space travel is an exciting idea, but right now we need to focus on Earth and create a progressive tax system so that children don’t go hungry, people are not homeless, and all Americans have health care....
The K-pop group sat down with Corden to talk about everything from how they relax to “that joke” (more on this later) and graced the studio stage with a live performance of the BTS track “Permission to Dance.” But there is more “coming soon” from BTS on The Late Late Show With James Corden. Sharing a clip of BTS filming dance moves on a crosswalk, the show tweeted: “Before tonight’s #LateLateShow with @bts_twt, here’s a little peek at the incredible Crosswalk Concert they filmed today that will air in an upcoming episode!...

He is the founder of Positive Damage Inc., which focuses on mindful drinking, and was the owner of the Columbia Room, a bar in D.C. The first mention of the cocktail as a beverage was in 1798 in a London newspaper. It definitely contained ginger but may not have had any alcohol....

Purdy will become the 49ers starting quarterback for the rest of the season following Jimmy Garoppolo’s season-ending injury against the Dolphins, just eight months after the 49ers selected him with the 262nd pick in the NFL draft in the final spot. Quarterbacking a legitimate Super Bowl contender in the midst of a race to the NFC West title and a top spot in the playoffs will quickly make Purdy one of the most relevant Mr....
So let’s take a look at some of the best moments of those fights: Best shove Kevin Harvick on Brad Kesleowski. Harvick felt that Keselowski shouldn’t be turning away from Jeff Gordon after Keselowski and Gordon had contact going for the lead at Texas. So Harvick took matters into his own hands by shoving Keselowski toward Gordon, which then caused the crews to fight. Yeah, it was childish, but it still was the best shove of the season....

The entrepreneur and Real Housewives of New York star discussed the couple’s recent nuptials and how the attention could take its toll on the Gone Girl star on a recent episode of her podcast, Just B with Bethenny Frankel. “They’re in love.
