Jesse Jackson was largely centered on himself. Experts break down why the president’s tribute to the late civil rights icon was not only “disrespectful,” but hypocritical. The Trump administration’s ‘whitewashing’ of America is the ‘antithesis’ of what Jackson stood for, one expert says. Trump using Jackson’s death to attack his critics was ‘disrespectful,’ but predictable, Harper says.

This game showed he still has the goods, though health will be a factor as Evans enters his age 33 season.

LOADING ERROR LOADINGWASHINGTON — A Republican lawmaker’s apparent affair with an aide who later died by suicide has roiled a close primary election in Texas.

Given the stakes, and the potential risk to American personnel, the lack of a specific public rationale for any war with Iran seems surprising. “Well, there’s many reasons and arguments that one could make for a strike against Iran,” Leavitt said, offering no specifics. Trump’s explanations extend only to repeated warnings that Iran will face the consequences if it doesn’t make a “deal” with the United States.
