How the Philadelphia Eagles' new running back would perform behind a new-look offensive line was a big worry before to the start of 2017 NFL season. The answer to that question is clear. The Eagles won their sixth straight game on NBC's "Sunday Night Football" as Saquon Barkley strengthened his bid to be the NFL's most valuable player by stomping past the Los Angeles Rams 37–20 and dominating the run game once more. Barkley ran behind a formidable offensive line for a career-high 255 yards just one season after being cut by the New York Giants. This was the first time in his career that he had rushed for more than 200 yards, including touchdown runs of 70 and 72 yards where defenders could hardly touch his back, much less stop him. In addition to giving Barkley 1,392 yards for the season—a...

As Democrats want more thorough screening of executive branch nominees, Republican Sen. Bill Hagerty implied on Sunday that Americans don't care about standard FBI background checks for President-elect Donald Trump's Cabinet choices. When asked on Sunday about the FBI's involvement in a background check on former Fox News anchor Pete Hegseth, Hagerty, R-Tenn., responded that Americans don't care who does background checks for presidential nominees. In response to a question concerning the FBI's custom of running background investigations on presidential cabinet candidates, Hagerty told host Jon Karl that Americans value Trump's ability to carry out the mandate that the American people voted for more than an FBI background check. The American public doesn't seem to care who conducts backgro...

Matt Gaetz seems to be experimenting with a new career path after declaring he would not be returning to Congress: making customized films for his followers on Cameo. A day after withdrawing his name from consideration to be President-elect Donald Trump's attorney general because to claims of sexual misconduct, Gaetz, a former representative from Florida, joined the platform on Friday. He has been giving paid holiday greetings, congrats on marriages, and career-boosting speeches there. Gaetz is asking at least $550 each film as of Sunday night; the videos have so far averaged around a minute and a half in duration. In reference to his recent resignation and subsequent declaration that he has no intention of retaking his House seat, his Cameo page states, "I served in Congress." Trump put ...

The Washington Commanders had one of the year's most unlikely, fortunate victories earlier in the season. They may have suffered an even more unfortunate defeat on Sunday, losing to the Dallas Cowboys 34-26. Although there were several clever moves throughout the game, the most bizarre plays of the day were reserved for the very last minute. With 33 seconds remaining and no timeouts, the Commanders first took possession of the ball on their own 14-yard line after falling behind 27–20. The score was 27-26 when Jayden Daniels found Terry McLaurin for an 86-yard catch-and-run on the first play of the drive. In some ways, it was the second time this season that Washington scored an unexpected touchdown in the closing seconds of a close game, evoking the Hail Mary in Daniels' 18–15 victory over...

What will Trump's second-term DOJ look like? President-elect Donald Trump appointed former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi as attorney general after Matt Gaetz withdrew from consideration. Bondi has previously blasted the deep state for promoting a false conspiracy theory that FBI agents and DOJ prosecutors were part of a covert cabal attempting to discredit Trump, and he has called for the prosecution of bad prosecutors who indicted Trump over attempts to rig the 2020 election. Todd Blanche, Trump's lead criminal defense attorney in the Stormy Daniels hush money case, was appointed second-in-command at the Justice Department. Some current and former DOJ officials are worried that Blanche won't oppose Trump because of their relationship with him, while others are cautiously hopeful tha...

BEIRUT/JERUSALEM Following a devastating Israeli bombing that killed at least 29 people in Beirut the previous day, the Hezbollah organization in Lebanon launched significant rocket barrages toward Israel on Sunday. The Israeli military said that homes had been demolished or set on fire close to Tel Aviv.
