“Just watched Mike Wallace wannabe, Chris Wallace, on @Fox News. I am now convinced that he is even worse than Sleepy Eyes Chuck Todd of Meet the Press (please!), or the people over at Deface the Nation,” Trump tweeted. “What the hell is happening to @Fox News. It’s a whole new ballgame over there!” In response, Bila urged the president to stop “with the 3rd grade name-calling” and defended Wallace as someone who is merely “doing his job....

Gabbard has hit back hard after Clinton, who was the Democratic presidential nominee in 2016, said during a podcast last week that the Hawaii congresswoman was “the favorite of the Russians.” Analysts have noted since early this year that Russian state media, such as RT and Sputnik, have spoken favorably of Gabbard and discussed her more than other candidates, which could be the reason Clinton made the claim. In response, Gabbard has publicly attacked Clinton, calling her the “queen of warmongers....

“I have been a friend of Donald Trump since 1987 through the New Jersey legal community in which his sister and I were active as judges. Trump and I have also known each other through my on-air television work at Fox News. Trump enjoys a personal familiarity with many of my Fox colleagues and me,” Napolitano, a former New Jersey Superior Court judge, explained in the article published by Fox News....

After House Speaker Nancy Pelosi over the weekend suggested that Trump should testify in Congress as part of the impeachment proceedings, Trump on Monday tweeted that he’d “strongly consider” it. If the president agrees, he will make history as the first in America to ever testify for their own impeachment inquiry. Pirro appeared on Fox News’ The Five on Monday to discuss a wide range of issues covered in the media, including Joe Biden’s recent remarks about marijuana, former President Barack Obama weighing in on progressives and the revelations surrounding Jeffrey Epstein’s death....

In a new Fox News poll released Thursday, Biden towered above his Democratic challengers at 35 percent, more than the share of support received by the next four leading contenders combined. Fourteen percent of South Carolina Democratic primary voters indicated support for Senator Bernie Sanders and 12 percent chose Senator Kamala Harris. Thursday’s poll is the first major survey in South Carolina to be conducted after the first Democratic debates of the 2020 cycle....

Having successfully defended the interim WBO title, Frampton will be confirmed as mandatory challenger to full champion Oscar Valdez but will next fight IBF titlist Josh Warrington, who travelled to Windsor Park to be ringside. Against Australia’s Jackson, the 31-year-old Frampton had long been a significant favorite in a fight that essentially served as a celebration of his popularity in his home city, where he may have fought for the final time....

Didier Deschamps has kept faith with the team that beat Belgium 1-0 in the last four, while Zlatko Dalic has been able to keep his favoured Croatia XI intact despite some injury concerns. Dalic admitted on Friday that one or two of his players were still feeling the effects of the 2-1 semi-final win over England, which was the third match in a row in which Croatia had gone to extra-time....

Spain were clear favourites to qualify after having beaten the French 88-64 in their meeting in the group phase, but as some of the Spain players had warned in the preparation for the competition, things were much different in the knockout stage. Pau Gasol, although still Spain’s most effective player, was below his best after struggling with injury in the past few days. Gasol netted 17 points and collected eight rebounds, but with his brother Marc, who became a father Tuesday, and Serge Ibaka, well controlled by a much tougher French defence, Spain’s usually dominant inside play was negated....

Outside of a surprising draw against Hungary in the sapping heat of Budapest, the French seemed to cruise rather effortlessly to the top spot of the toughest group at the Euros. They left the impression they could flip the switch on their attacking buzzsaw whenever they wanted. And to think that the French finished top of that group without needing Kylian Mbappe to score a goal or assist in the three matches....

He said, “‘I have taken the decision to retire from international football. It has been a very tough decision for me to make which is why I have given it so much thought since the World Cup. “I have always bene exceptionally proud and honoured to represent my country and have to say looking back I have enjoyed every minute of wearing the England shirt. Due to my club career now going in a different direction it is of utmost importance for me to consider my family first....

I thought today we were going to have a nice day, just lounging all day, maybe go to the beach. But I should have known. Right after breakfast I had to go sightseeing. When I heard the plan I was even less encouraged. It was rice-paddy trekking, which is walking through rice and you can’t tell the difference between a weed and rice and then go to a dumb old temple....

President Joe Biden said earlier this week that his administration is purchasing 1 billion at-home rapid tests to distribute to the American public free of charge. The first 500 million of those tests will be made available for American families to order next week. At the beginning, residential addresses will be limited to ordering four tests. The limit will be in place in order to “promote broad access” to the free tests, according to a White House fact sheet....

Never was that more evident than in the humility, strength and courage Thunder assistant coach Monty Williams exhibited when he stepped up to speak Thursday at the funeral of his wife, Ingrid, the mother of his five children, who died of injuries suffered in a car wreck a week ago. MORE: The 10 most important trade deadline deals | Trade deadline winners, losers Honestly, I have no idea how to look at what Williams did objectively, so I’m not going to attempt to do it....

On Wednesday, four years after Kaepernick initially protested, six NBA teams decided that not playing their games that day was the best way to stand in solidarity with Jacob Blake. Blake was shot in the back multiple times by Kenosha, Wisconsin police officers on Sunday and left paralyzed by the incident. Protests have broken out since, leaving two dead and one injured. Three playoff games were postponed as a result of the historic boycotts, and the NBA released a statement:....

A petition calling for monthly $2,000 stimulus checks has hit 2.5 million signatures, and previously there has been support from some lawmakers—including Vice President Kamala Harris herself when she was a senator—for recurring payments. However, though some lawmakers have backed more stimulus checks there is also major hesitance from others—particularly among the GOP—over mounting spending. The last round of stimulus checks, for example, was part of the American Rescue Plan which only passed through reconciliation....

“I know you were critical of Fox yesterday,” Kilmeade told Trump during a segment of his Fox News Radio program The Brian Kilmeade Show. He then read a tweet posted by Trump, which accused his formerly favored network of “heavily promoting Democrats.” “So, you were very upset,” Kilmeade said. “No, I’m not happy,” the president asserted. “I’m not happy with Fox. You know people say Fox is for me, Fox is — look Sean [Hannity] and Laura [Ingraham] and Tucker [Carlson] have really been good — well, Tucker is a little tricky but that’s ok....

Napolitano, who previously served as a New Jersey Superior Court judge, has become a frequent critic of Trump and his administration, repeatedly saying that the president’s impeachment by the House of Representatives was merited. In an editorial published by Fox News on Thursday, he dismisses arguments made by Trump’s defenders, saying that there is clear evidence that the president abused his power. “It leaves us with valid, lawful, constitutional arguments for Trump’s impeachment that he ought to take seriously,” Napolitano wrote, after explaining the legal basis for the president’s impeachment....

The segment aired during Fox News’ daytime talk show Outnumbered, which features four female panelists and “#OneLuckyGuy,” according to the show’s website. Thursday’s “lucky guy” was conservative pundit Buck Sexton, who said the Democratic presidential candidates’ response to climate change, with some suggesting a ban on straws and to eat less red meat, wouldn’t work with the American electorate. He then pivoted his argument to liberals. “Climate change is a religious belief for people who think they’re too smart for religion,” Sexton said....

The survey, which was conducted from September 15 to September 17, found that Biden had a double-digit lead on Trump. The former vice president had 52 percent support among voters, while Trump garnered just 38 percent support. These results were similar to a Fox poll conducted in early August, which showed Biden with 50 percent support compared to Trump’s 38 percent. Sanders was the second most favored Democrat when put in a head-to-head matchup against Trump....
