However, Bayern chairman Rummenigge is sure their star striker will be ready to play in the return fixture at the Santiago Bernabeu next Tuesday....

A new taste for expensive toys is only half the story. For four years running, the Brazilian real has outperformed the world’s 16 most traded currencies. After nearly two decades of slumber, the world’s ninth largest economy is regaining its place as an emerging-market favorite. Growth will hit 5 percent this year, up from 3.7. The boom in raw-materials prices has helped, as has export diversification away from the United States....

It was the right call, no doubt, especially with venues like the Estadio Azteca set to be in use. Emergency workers were needed elsewhere and the stadiums needed to be inspected for structural damage. Many clubs are donating their gate revenue to groups helping those affected by the quakes, including America which already had committed to do so for victims of the Oaxaca/Chiapas quake that hit earlier. It’s another example of the soccer community coming together for the common good....

Ever since there have been Commerce secretaries (nearly a century), they’ve made such phone calls: strands in a global web of American dealmaking. But what makes this one noteworthy–and worthy of suspicion to Bush’s enemies–is the date on which it took place, Oct. 15, for Lay knew that his world was about to fall apart. In a conference call with Wall Street analysts the next day, he would have to disclose that Enron had lost an astounding $618 million in the third quarter....

The 34-year-old rapper was locked in Sunday, tweeting out his support to the Packers as he watched the NFC North matchup.

In a statement announcing the birth on Sunday, the couple said their new daughter was “more than we could have ever imagined.” Her full name pays tribute to both Harry’s grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Diana, the prince’s late mother who died in August 1997. Lilibet—shortened version of Elizabeth—is the nickname for the queen that is used by members of the Royal Family. Elizabeth was named after her own mother, Elizabeth Angela Marguerite Bowes-Lyon, who would later often be referred to simply as “The Queen’s Mother....

But to have two in the same match is pure heaven - and that is exactly what happened in Strasbourg’s 3-0 victory over Lille on Sunday! Two early injuries for the Ligue 1 side forced Marcelo Bielsa to ring the changes. And the Argentine was skating on thin ice when he made his third, tactical substitution whilst still in the first half. The gamble ultimately backfired when goalkeeper Mike Maignan was sent off for clashing with Benjamin Corgnet when the ball was out of play....

Wood is scheduled to be a keynote speaker at the three-day For God & Country Patriot Roundup event over Memorial Day Weekend in May, along with Trump’s former campaign lawyer and fellow QAnon supporter Sidney Powell as well as former national security adviser Michael Flynn, one of the key figures in the radical movement.

With the sound of a respirator in the background, the ad says, “Trump said COVID-19 affects almost nobody, but then his wife got it, his press secretary got it, his debate team got it, his White House staff got it. Trump turned the White House into a hot zone.” “Now Trump is still trying to convince us that the greatest public health threat in over a century isn’t a big deal while he gasps for air, fresh from the hospital,” the ad continues....

The anti-Trump political action committee has continued its blistering attacks of the president in the run-up to the November 3 election, with the latest advocating for those not yet old enough to vote. “Imagine a young girl looking in the mirror, searching for role models in the world to give her hope that one day, she too can make a difference,” the ad’s female narrator says in its opening. “Now imagine how she feels when she watches women being verbally attacked....

While appearing on MSNBC’s Deadline: White House, Steve Schmidt spoke about the ongoing presidential election and how he thinks things could fare in the coming years. “Look, we have almost 48 percent of this country that’s voted for a statist, authoritarian movement with fascistic markers that’s hostile to American democracy, to the rule of law — that venerates an individual, that’s a cult of personality,” Schmidt said. “I think that Tucker Carlson is the frontrunner for the Republican nomination in 2024....

The Lincoln Project succinctly tweeted “.@RepPaulMitchell, let’s talk.” barely eight minutes after Mitchell’s resignation was announced on Monday morning. The addition of a period before Mitchell’s Twitter handle helped ensure that the organization’s other Twitter followers would be able to see the message among their public tweets rather than hiding it under the less public “replies” section. Mitchell didn’t publicly respond to the organization’s tweet. Newsweek contacted his office for comment....

Sen. Romney (R-UT) recently spoke of his concern over the state of politics and discourse surrounding the issue in the U.S., calling for people on all sides to “tone it down.” “I respect Mitt Romney and his appeal to civility,” Fred Wellman, senior advisor for veterans affairs at The Lincoln Project, a group largely made up of Republicans but who do not wish to see Trump re-elected, told Newsweek....

Next weekend the rest of America gets to see for itself. Kunhardt’s four-hour “Lincoln,” airing Dec. 26 and 27 on ABC, has several similarities to another historical epic, Ken Burns’s “The Civil War.” Besides covering some of the same ground, it uses special camera techniques to imbue vintage stills with a sense of movement and employs lots of celebrity larynxes to speak for the dead. Now for a difference. While “The Civil War” was a documentary masterpiece, “Lincoln” is merely superb-at once wrenching drama and vividly illuminating history....

Graham took to Twitter on February 21 to share his thoughts on the recent decision, which is expected to send shockwaves throughout the international community.

Graham, who is chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, has faced calls to resign his chairmanship following a report claiming he asked Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger if he could throw out legally cast ballots in some of the state’s counties. Raffensperger made the claim in an interview with the Washington Post, although Graham has denied pressuring him to toss votes. Raffensperger, a Republican, was “stunned” by the question....

Graham, who has been a strong defender of Trump, told Fox News’s Sean Hannity on Monday that Trump is likely to win the Republican nomination for president in two years’ time.
