Steve Simeonidis, chairman of the Miami-Dade Democratic party, tweeted an image of the officer, describing the situation as “city funded voter intimidation.” Simeonidis told the Miami Herald that he spotted the officer “well within” the 150-foot area that police officers and non-voters are not permitted under state laws during an election. “He may have been going to vote. But he was in full uniform with the mask and a gun....

Flynn tried pulling at the patriotic heart strings of those gathered at the Honkeytonk Saloon in Ladson, South Carolina on Sunday. He was appearing at a campaign event in support of Lin Wood who is bidding to become the South Carolina GOP chairman. Wood is an ally of former President Donald Trump. But after telling attendees to “hear, not just listen” to “every single word,” of the 31-word paean to American liberty and justice, it seemed that Flynn could not quite deliver on what he was asking other people to do....

Phelps, who trained with Bowman since he was 11 years old in Baltimore, decided to pack up and move west with the coach that led him to the past four Olympics, where he won 22 medals — 18 of them gold. “It is different, but I am somebody who loves changes. If we do the same thing in training month after month, I get sick of it,” Phelps said. “If I do the same thing in the weight room day after day, month after month, I get sick of it....

This strategy has been in place for a while as Spotify has also pursued deals with The Ringer, Kim Kardashian West, and DC Comics since they acquired Gimlet Media in 2019. “Wall Street seems to be handsomely rewarding Spotify for aggressively pursuing an original content strategy. They seem to be trying to emulate what Netflix did in TV and film,” Sven Carlsson told Newsweek. “This is not a new idea for Spotify....

Metro by T-Mobile Services Metro by T-Mobile offers several domestic-service packages, none of which incur per-minute roaming charges in the nationwide coverage area or on the networks of T-Mobile partners.

Salcedo’s return comes one day after that of Santos Laguna center back Nestor Araujo, who was injured in the same March friendly against Croatia. Araujo suffered a knee injury but is training with his club ahead of Thursday’s Liguilla first-leg quarterfinal. “We have an important match on Saturday and the chance to make amends for recent weeks,” Salcedo told Frankfurt’s official site. “We can still qualify for Europe and to do that we need to give our all on Saturday....

And El Tri lived up to the pressure. In the first match of a two-leg playoff between two nations located on opposite sides of the globe, Mexico struck early and often, as it coasted to a convincing 5-1 victory over New Zealand at the intimidating Estadio Azteca on Wednesday afternoon. With tensions high and many questioning if Mexico even deserved a spot in the World Cup after finishing the CONCACAF qualifying Hexagonal with a 2-5-3 record, Paul Aguilar gave the home crowd something to cheer about with the game's first goal in the 17th minute before El Tri fired off four more goals....

U.S. U-20s eliminated by relentless Venezuela That was Mexico’s tournament in a nutshell. Despite having plenty of talented players, players who were able to find opportunities, the team wasn’t ever quite able to kick into gear, sputtering into the quarterfinals and leaving the tournament having scored in just two of five matches. Those goals came against island minnow Vanuatu, who put a scare into El Tri by drawing level with them before Edson Alvarez’s stoppage-time winner, and on a late goal against Senegal from Ronaldo Cisneros....

The segment—which hasn’t even aired yet—has been the source of fury since its promo was released on Wednesday. The video promised to delve into how the Duchess of Sussex’s bad PR is causing a “royal crisis”—and how the former actress went from “adored to insufferable” in less than a year. The show tweeted the promo on Wednesday saying, “How Meghan Markle lost her sparkle.” Snippets from the episode show Karl Stefanovic interviewing British TV personalities, declaring a “#Megxit”—and the video has caused intensive uproar and backlash....

Beasley failed to get the shot off in time (it missed, anyway). He dribbled and shot instead of catching and shooting with 1.3 seconds remaining.

Flynn, a retired Army lieutenant general who briefly served as Donald’s Trump’s national security adviser, made the remarks during the “ReAwaken America” conference in San Antonio, Texas, on Saturday. “If we are going to have one nation under God, which we must, we have to have one religion. One nation under God and one religion under God,” Flynn, who was recently forced to refute claims from believers of the QAnon conspiracy theory that he worships Satan, said....

Long before the Oscar-winning hip-hop artist was the center of attention, he was a ballboy for the Bulls during the Michael Jordan era. Not a bad time to be involved with the team. Common went on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and talked about his former job, and mentioned that he was asked to forge Jordan’s signature for fans once upon a time. “Somebody asked for his autograph, and I charged the guy $5," Common said....

Vick will be Pittsburgh’s starting quarterback for at least four weeks while Ben Roethlisberger recovers from a knee sprain. Before he went down in St. Louis in the third quarter on Sunday, Roethlisberger was giving his team the best QB play in the NFL.

The Mi 9T has a lower price and, arguably, a more balanced specification than other Mi 9 models, losing the flagship processor and wireless charging of the standard Mi 9, but retaining its in-display fingerprint sensor and adding a higher-capacity 4,000mAh battery. It uses the same 48Mp triple-lens camera as the Mi 9 SE, but at the front is fitted with a 20Mp pop-up selfie camera that enables a truly full-screen experience on its 6....
