The independent congressman tweeted early Saturday: “The thing we know for sure is that Hillary Clinton is a Donald Trump asset.” Representative Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii), who is widely presumed to be the subject of Clinton’s remarks, already took time to lash out at Clinton on social media, issuing a scathing series of tweets Friday afternoon. Gabbard’s Twitter thread concluded with a direct call-out to Clinton: “It’s now clear that this primary is between you and me....

However, there was a period where 2D and 3D games were not viewed evenly. Around the N64 and PS1 era, it became fashionable for formerly 2D games to be reinterpreted in 3D, and 2D games were mostly relegated to handhelds. Even today, the majority of 2D games, in terms of both visuals and gameplay, are found in indie circles. That doesn’t mean that style of game can or should be dismissed, however....

Metroid Prime 3 was released 14 years ago for the Wii and it wasn’t until 2017 that Nintendo announced Metroid Prime 4 was in development for the Nintendo Switch. Unfortunately, just two years later Nintendo announced that Metroid Prime 4 was going to restart development under Retro Studios, the original developers for the Metroid Prime games. Although no new announcements have been made about Metroid Prime 4, some information from the previous installment has been revealed....

Luckily for those that have remained patient, a Metroid Prime Trilogy Switch port is starting to look like a very real possibility. Industry insiders have said that a port of some sort has been coming for awhile now, but recently one insider has said that the Metroid Prime Trilogy Switch port is finished, and Nintendo is just waiting for the right time to release it. While it’s always wise to take rumors and leaks like these with a bit of skepticism, there are numerous other pieces of evidence that show Metroid Prime Trilogy’s Switch port announcement could come sooner than later....

MORE: LaVar Ball has millions of reasons to be grateful to Trump His tweet became a meme with several people copying the theme, but adjusting it to other topics. One Twitter user engaging in the fun ended up being Mets pitcher Noah Syndergaard who jokingly said he denied Sports Illustrated’s call to be on the cover. Andy Murray also mocked Trump And for what it’s worth, Time said Trump was lying in his tweet:

“I’d rather have guys have as much stick as possible and focus on throwing the ball to the box (strike zone),” Alonso told reporters before his game Wednesday in Baltimore. No, his gripe is with MLB, and for a reason that not many people would think about or, frankly, believe: Alonso claims that he and other players are convinced that the commissioner’s office changes the properties of the ball each year based on the strengths of the upcoming free-agent class and the number of players who are late in the salary arbitration process....

Andrés Manuel López Obrador pitched a new plan to the U.N. Security Council that could help those around the world living on less than $2 a day. He suggested that the thousand wealthiest people, most prominent private companies and the 20 major worldwide economies combine their resources to generate around $1 trillion each year. Only 4 percent of the wealthiest people’s income and the most successful companies’ profits would be needed to make the plan a reality, along with 0....

Last week no country was sheltered from Mexico’s chaos. Suddenly, investors everywhere saw quicksand where, only days earlier, there’d been solid ground. In Europe, traders trashed the Swedish krona. In Bangkok, the Bank of Thailand sweated over the baht. Moving money before it lost value was the name of the game. “People are very prone to trading by sound bite,” said Ravi Bulchandani, head of currency research at Morgan Stanley, as he watched the Canadian dollar hit banana-republic levels....

Heading into Sunday’s group match, Mexico has expressed respect and admiration for the Real Madrid superstar, but there’s one emotion players said cannot – no, must not – enter into the equation: fear. Mexico’s players have watched film on the attacker, understand what he will try to do and know it will be a tough task to keep him from scoring, but it is not afraid of Cristiano Ronaldo....

Mexico needs just a single point against El Salvador to lock in a spot at the 2022 World Cup, but even with a loss, qualification is still in play as long as four-goal differential lead over Costa Rica isn’t wasted in the process. The only way Mexico could lose out on a spot in the World Cup would be with a loss to El Salvador — likely requiring one by multiple goals — plus a Costa Rica win over the United States by enough goals to overtake Mexico’s goal differential advantage....

“MFW I feed my cat exactly 5 minutes late, and she starts biting my computer in retaliation 🙀” “MFW my sister wants me to cancel my date to babysit for her 😡” “MFW my headphones get caught on the doorknob while it’s swinging shut 😵‍💫😵” “MFW when the waiter hands me a dessert menu, and there are multiple pages 🤤” “MFW I get called in for jury duty the same week I’m supposed to go on vacation 😭” “MFW I get stranded at the bus stop and need someone to come pick me up 🥺🙏”...

A powerful magnitude 7.2 earthquake struck Haiti on Saturday, killing at least 304 people in a nation already reeling from the coronavirus pandemic and the recent assassination of its president. Farrow urged people to donate to several organizations in two tweets on Saturday. In one tweet, she listed the American Red Cross as one of the “best aid organizations working in Haiti.” But the tweets prompted a flood of replies urging people not to donate to the American Red Cross, citing the charity’s reported mismanagement of donations in the wake of a devastating earthquake that struck Haiti in 2010....
