Trump claims he can’t get a fair trial in DC as latest indictment dominates GOP primary

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:41:28 GMT

(CNN) — Former President Donald Trump, who is facing charges in Washington, DC for allegedly conspiring to overturn the results of the 2020 election, claimed on Sunday that he wouldn’t receive a fair trial in the nation’s capital as he continues to rail against his latest indictment.“No way I can get a fair trial, or even close to a fair trial, in Washington, D.C. There are many reasons for this, but just one is that I am calling for a federal takeover of this filthy and crime ridden embarrassment to our nation,” Trump said in a Truth Social post.If he were to ask in court to move his federal criminal case out of Washington, DC, the former president would join three dozen January 6, 2021, riot defendants who have asked to move their cases out of DC.No judges – even those appointed by Trump – have ever agreed. And appeals courts and other judges have overwhelmingly kept high-profile cases in the districts where charges are filed.Several January 6 defendants have argued that there’s b...

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:41:28 GMT

BALTIMORE — A week ago, the Mets got a win over a division rival with a Hall-of-Fame ace on the mound. They haven’t won a game since.The Mets continued their summer slide Sunday at Camden Yards with a 2-0 loss to the AL-best Baltimore Orioles. It completed the sweep for the O’s and left the Mets 0-6 on a six-game trade deadline road trip. The Amazins’ are now a season-worst 11 games under .500 (60-61).With outfielders Brandon Nimmo and Starting Marte sitting Sunday out, about 2/3 of the Mets’ lineup for the series finale was made up of unproven hitters that have spent the majority of the season in Triple-A. They proved little this week, getting shut out twice in six games. The Orioles limited the Mets to only three hits. All three came against right-handed starter Kyle Bradish, who only lasted 4 2/3 innings.The Mets had some opportunities, especially since Bradish walked five hitters, with their best chance coming in the fifth. The Mets loaded the bases...

FOXBORO — Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne is not ignoring the noise.Four minutes into Bourne’s media availability Sunday after training camp practice, Patriots media relations told reporters “two more questions” for the wide receiver.

Bourne responded, “stink, stunk and stank” before running back to the practice field.Related ArticlesNew England Patriots | Matthew Judon acknowledges Patriots didn’t need to amend contract New England Patriots | Jonathan Jones among 5 starters missing at Patriots training camp Sunday New England Patriots | NFL notes: Is Bill Belichick embracing sports science at Patriots training camp?

Red Sox find themselves at a crossroads after being swept by Blue Jays

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:41:28 GMT

If the Red Sox can’t mount a big late-summer comeback and wind up missing the playoffs again, this weekend’s debacle will likely be remembered as the moment it all went wrong.The Red Sox lost again Sunday, falling 13-1 as the Toronto Blue Jays completed the backbreaking three-game sweep. Unlike the first two games, which were reasonably competitive, this one was a rout from the start as the Blue Jays pummeled the beleaguered Red Sox pitching staff and left town in full control of the last American League Wild Card spot.And yet as dominant as Toronto was Sunday, the Red Sox ultimately beat themselves.All of Boston’s chickens came home to roost this weekend, as the flaws that have plagued this club throughout the season were exposed at the worst possible time. Friday’s loss was marked by the offense’s ill-timed disappearing act, Saturday’s by a costly baserunning error, and on Sunday it was a defensive miscue that opened the floodgates for a huge Bl...

Pope discusses health, the ditched peace prayer in Fatima and LGBTQ+ Catholics in airborne briefing

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:41:28 GMT

ABOARD THE PAPAL PLANE (AP) — Pope Francis said Sunday his recovery from his latest abdominal surgery is going well and stressed that he ditched speeches during his five-day trip to Portugal and spoke off-the-cuff not because he was tired or feeling unwell, but to better communicate with young people.Francis was asked about his health en route home from Lisbon, where he presided over World Youth Day festival. It was his first trip since he was hospitalized in June for nine days following last-minute surgery to repair an abdominal hernia and remove intestinal scar tissue.The trip, which came during a heat wave that sent temperatures to 40 degrees C (104F) in Lisbon, was notable because the 86-year-old pontiff deviated so often from his speeches, homilies and even prayers, which are usually drafted months in advance and crafted with specific events and audiences in mind.One of the most notable deviations was a prayer for peace that Francis was supposed to have delivered in the Portugu...
