Promotions aren't always what they seem. At least not in the instance of Howie Roseman, who managed the Philadelphia Eagles' draft and free agency strategy from 2010 to 2014 before having those responsibilities taken away from him and handed over to Chip Kelly, the team's head coach at the time. Roseman oversaw the off-field employees and salaries while Kelly continued to lead the team. However, the team granted Roseman another chance to be general manager after Kelly was sacked five days prior to the 2015 regular season finale. He hasn't turned around. Roseman stated on NBC's ProFootballTalk in 2018 that it was perhaps the nicest thing that had ever happened to him. Did I ever imagine myself returning in a prominent role in Philadelphia? No. I don't believe I did. However, I was adamant ...

Elon Musk has infiltrated the government, according to the jargon of the tech sector. Despite never having been elected to office or confirmed by the Senate for a high-level government position, the billionaire tech magnate has used his position as head of President Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency project, or DOGE, to obtain sensitive federal data in a matter of days in order to advance a broad agenda and possibly cause a constitutional crisis. Musk has adopted Silicon Valley's most infamous propensity to act quickly and forcefully in an attempt to gain control of federal agencies' computer networks and organizational structures. Similar to his 2022 corporate takeover of Twitter, he has enlisted a team to evaluate specifics such office building leases, budget line items,...

Last Thursday, officials sentenced a man from Georgia to 475 years in jail for aiding dog fights and mistreating animals, including 107 dogs that were taken from his property in November 2022. Jessica K. Rock, a special assistant United States attorney located in Georgia and state animal crimes resource prosecutor, said via email Monday that it is the longest known sentence involving dog fighting anywhere.

Even though Donald Trump made last-minute agreements with some of the country's closest allies that allowed him to back down from his earlier threats, the effects of his long-promised promise to use tariffs as a political tool began to become clear on Monday. Trump declared on Sunday that he will impose 10% tariffs on China, a political adversary, and a wide 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico, two allies of the United States. Even if the action was anticipated, it nevertheless raised concerns about the growing prices of commodities throughout the American economy. Trump ran on a platform of cutting expenses and reducing inflation, which makes that worry especially strong. According to Yale University's Budget Lab, Trump's tariff ideas would reduce the purchasing power of American households b...
