Cheney, the No. 3 House Republican, chairs the House Republican Conference and was the most high-profile GOP lawmaker to vote to impeach Trump for helping to incite the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. She was joined by nine other GOP representatives, but most House Republicans opposed impeachment and some have argued that she should be removed from her leadership role. “The survival of our republic depends upon making decisions that have to do with things like the attack that we saw on January 6 that are separate from party, that can never be partisan when you’re talking about the mob attack on the Capitol,” Cheney said Thursday morning during a Fox News interview....

Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair could have a shot at the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles In a local commercial for the upcoming TLC PPV, Becky can be seen paired up with Charlotte for a WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles match against current holders The Kabuki Warriors. WWE has been toying with this idea for a while now as Lynch and Flair have already taken on The Kabuki Warriors for the Women’s Tag Team Titles on the November 11 episode of RAW....

“Virginia has a story to tell that extends far beyond glorifying the Confederacy, whose primary objective in the Civil War was to preserve an ideology that maintained the enslavement of human beings. It is time for our Capitol to truly reflect our history,” Filler-Corn said in a statement shared on her official Twitter account. Delegate Delores McQuinn of Richmond will chair the speaker’s newly formed Advisory Group on State Capitol Artifacts, which will be “a bipartisan group of House members, historians and community leaders from across the Commonwealth,” the statement noted....

The GOP senators, who are both facing state runoff races on January 5, said that the baseball team should not “cave to the demands of the cancel culture and the radical left.” The Braces have faced criticism for being named after a term once used by Native American warriors, and have previously been called on to change their name by the National Congress of American Indians. “We adamantly oppose any effort to rename the Atlanta Braves, one of our state’s most storied and successful sports franchises,” the senators said on Monday....

Germany coach Joachim Loew has hinted he will instruct his team to raise their second-half tempo in Thursday’s Euro 2012 semi-final against Italy in an attempt to tire out the Azzurri. The Italians played 120 minutes in Sunday’s quarter-final against England as it finished goalless after extra-time before the Azzurri finally won 4-2 in a penalty shoot-out to set up a semi-final against Loew’s Germans in Warsaw. Italy have had four days to recover since beating the Three Lions in Kiev on Sunday, while Germany had two days extra following Friday’s 4-2 quarter-final triumph over Greece in Gdansk....

The 22-year-old England international is keen to stay at Stamford Bridge this term after returning from an encouraging loan spell with Crystal Palace. New Blues boss Sarri, speaking after Tuesday’s friendly win over Lyon, praised Loftus-Cheek as “potentially a great player” in a sign he is set for a first-team opportunity. However, the homegrown youth product - who has outlasted Jose Mourinho, Guus Hiddink and Antonio Conte since his 2014 debut - is concerned only by meeting his own expectations....

French international Loic Remy has joined Newcastle United on a one year loan deal from Queen’s Park Rangers with an eye on a permanent transfer at the end of the season. Remy becomes Newcastle’s first addition to the senior squad this summer after several months of frustration for The Toon in the transfer market. Newcastle, which has become a hotbed of French signing in recent years, will make Remy their 11th French addition to their squad....

The Cubs love Ryne Sandberg. Cubs fans love Ryne Sandberg. During nearly every home game during the Cubs’ magical playoff run this month, the Wrigley Field video board showed a package of Sandberg highlights from his time wearing the uniform, and then the camera would show a smiling Sandberg in the stands, cheering on his Cubbies. The crowd went crazy, every single time. Sandberg’s grin grew, every single time. These were wonderful shared moments between a Hall of Famer who loves his fans and fans who love their Hall of Famer, at the intimate confines of Wrigley Field....

“Campus, everything around it, even just coming here from Oklahoma City, to see the development all around,” McGhee told The Norman Transcript. “It’s a lot different around here.” Oklahoma opens its arms to all former players when it holds the Legends Alumni Weekend. McGhee was one of the featured honorees as the University of Oklahoma celebrated all 1,000-point scorers in the program’s history. McGhee wished he’d come back sooner. His home is in Frisco, Texas....

Rap songs spark an inimitable energy in you but it’s the old school classical tunes that really soothe your soul. And Pujara’s batting is just that. It is old-fashioned, it is textbook and it takes a pure cricket fan to really appreciate it. And indeed there’s a small dedicated fan-base somewhere for the Saurashtra player. They are neither hashtag-driven nor have a plethora of Instagram fan pages for their hero but they are there....

Ball released a diss track on iTunes with a track called “Kylie Kuzma.” While it’s clearly in good fun since the two players like each other, Ball didn’t go easy on his teammate. We listened to the fairly short track and took down the lyrics below (in case you don’t have time to listen to it). In it, Ball takes shots at the fact Kuzma never met his biological father, the fact he posts photos of himself working out, the fact he won’t be as good as Russell Westbrook and a shot at his merchandise KuzMania....

They might not have won medals for us but they had pulled off some gutsy as well as amazing feats in London. There were many firsts for India in this Olympics. Apart from the fact that we won a record 6 medals (thanks to Gagan, Vijay, Saina, Mary, Yogeshwar and Sushil), we could hear some unheralded names and even sporting categories. Athletics Our performance in track and field events left everyone amazed....

RELATED: Lord Of The Rings: Best Things In The Rings Of Power (& The Worst) The Second Age contains several very interesting and important events including the rise of Sauron, the forging of the Rings of Power, as well as the creation of the Last Alliance of Elves and Men. An additional little-known fact also includes the sinking of Numenor.

The musician—whose real name is Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O’Connor—left her audience in a “shambles” after her admission, according to one concert goer. Lorde was performing at The Anthem in Washington D.C on Monday as part of her Solar Power world tour. During an interlude she sat on some stairs that made up her set as she reflected on the past two years amid the COVID-19 pandemic and other major global events....

The Reds started the game brightly and deservedly took the lead through Salah in the 17th minute. The Reds came close to doubling their advantage through Luis Diaz and Salah on different occasions, but both missed their chances. Liverpool paid the price for not taking their chances as Ajax equalized through a spectacular strike from Kudus on a rapid counter attack in the 27th minute. The two teams went into the half-time break with the score leveled at 1-1....

It was far from an impressive start though, as first-choice goalkeeper Alisson made a succession of errors before the deadlock was broken after just four minutes. He made a mess of a backpass, completely fumbling the ball which allowed Moussa Dembele a goalscoring chance in the area unchallenged. Panicking, he hauled down the forward and gave away a spot-kick - which Memphis Depay dispatched with aplomb. That was as good as it got for Lyon though, as the Reds responded quickly despite an early period of nervy defensive moments....

Jurgen Klopp’s side came up short in the Premier League title race, with Manchester City defending their title with a dramatic final day win over Aston Villa. Klopp has already secured two domestic cups this season but the chance to win a seventh European Cup/Champions League in the French capital will be a huge motivation for his team. The injury news ahead of the Champions League final was encouraging, and the optimism fans had prior to the big match paid off....

Get 11/1 on Liverpool to win the PL The £66 million offer for the Guinea international was submitted by the Merseysiders on Monday, and was rejected with the same message that accompanied their opening bid - the dynamic midfielder is not for sale at any price. The Reds had been encouraged enough to table a second proposal, but Ralf Rangnick’s hardline approach is the Bundesliga club’s de facto stance....

In case you didn’t know… Liverpool were one of the biggest Premier League spenders in the transfer market last season as they signed Alisson, Naby Keita and more. With their huge spending, the Reds’ efforts have paid off on the field. Liverpool won the Champions League last season and finished just one point behind Premier League champions, Manchester City. The Reds have been pretty silent in this transfer window and made just one signing so far....
