Democratic Congressman Blasts Impeachment Hearings Says Some Democrats Having Second Thoughts

Democrats Gop Face Sharp Divide In Rush For Police Reform Legislation

While there is some overlap between each party’s proposal—such as addressing topics like chokeholds and police misconduct—stark differences remain that will be difficult to work out in their efforts to combat police brutality and racial injustice after the death of George Floyd that sparked national outrage.

Dems Predict Mcconnell Stimulus Bill Failure He Doesn T Have The Votes

The bill, branded emaciated by its opponents and targeted by its backers, is expected to be voted upon on Thursday, after McConnell outlined details of the plan following an impasse in reaching a bipartisan agreement on a relief package. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), who has been highly critical of the proposals, downplayed the Kentucky senator’s chance of passing the plan and insisted: “He doesn’t have the votes.” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) also said Democrats “are not going to fold” on the bill, which would require some Democrats senators to support it in order to pass....

Dennis Pitta Hopes To Avoid Bo Jackson Fate With Hip Injury

Dennis Pitta dislocated and fractured his right hip last July in a preseason collision with James Ihedigbo, had surgery shortly thereafter and was back on the field in about five months. That sounds like forever, and a fracture-dislocation sounds terrible, but it could have been far worse. The fracture wasn’t displaced, ligaments and cartilage weren’t damaged, and the blood flow to the hip wasn’t compromised. A small bone fragment had to be removed, but none of the surrounding muscles were compromised during the procedure and Pitta rehabbed well....

The DDPHE issued a closure order on Thursday after the facility reportedly failed to comply with an investigation that was launched after the state reported multiped cases of coronavirus among employees.

Deontay Wilder Career Record Recent Fight Highlights

The 31-year-old Alabamian has five successful title defenses since winning the title from Bermane Stiverne in January 2015, but has also drawn criticism for his lack of activity and seeming reluctance to accept tough fights.

Coutinho was demanding to be fed at every opportunity, and on more than one occasion, instructed the full-backs to give him an extra outlet....
