Hoylman pointed out that the actions of the officer who has since been suspended was particularly worrying given the role of police in November. “In past years, it has been the responsibility of the NYPD to transport ballots from poll sites to the Board of Elections,” Hoylman tweeted....

The Orange County Sheriff’s Office confirmed in a statement to local news outlet WESH the group had been asked to relocate from their position on the sidewalk after a complaint by the Reedy Creek Improvement District, which governs land surrounding the Florida resort. Images showing the group of supporters at an entrance surfaced on Twitter earlier this week, with signs reading “America First” and “Trump 2020.” But it was the looming cut out of Disney icon Mickey Mouse that attracted most attention....

The returns, released following a late Tuesday night vote by members of the House Ways and Means Committee, revealed largely what was already known from a New York Times investigation at the height of his administration: that he was never under audit like he claimed, and that Trump helped use millions of dollars in business losses over the years to avoid paying taxes, even as he’d received millions of dollars in income from other sources....

The July 25 call is an important piece of evidence in the House impeachment inquiry. It shows Trump pushing for Zelenskiy to look into dubious corruption allegations and a conspiracy theory against his political opponents: former Vice President Joe Biden and the Democratic Party.

This is the first time Trump has vetoed the annual defense policy legislation since taking office, and Wednesday was the last day he had to reject it before it became law without his signature.

Trump shared the sentiment in a tweet on Sunday night, writing: “Schools in our country should be opened ASAP.” “Much very good information now available,” the president said, tagging British political adviser and commentator Steve Hilton and Fox News in his tweet.

In the process 25 years ago, Woods made his clearest statement to that point that he was going to be a force in the world of golf. At only 21, his four-day score of 270 (18 under par) was a tournament record, leading to yet another mark for the youngest Masters champion in history: He finished 12 shots clear of runner-up Tom Kite. The following column, by contributing writer Dave Kindred from the scene at Augusta National, appeared in the April 21, 1997, issue of The Sporting News....

Two seasons ago, when John Elway beat him with a 43-yard scoring pass on the last play of the game … and Michael Irvin had a 23-yard catch over him that led to a Cowboys field goal … and Tampa Bay pulled off a victory when Alvin Harper caught a TD pass on him … and Frank Sanders of the Cardinals got past him for a 20-yard reception that set up the winning touchdown, it appeared Father Time had finally caught up with Darrell Green, the Redskins’ seemingly ageless cornerback....

Original publish date: January 29, 1990 Nobody Did It Better: Schmidt Selected TSN Player of the Decade By Bill Brown PHILADELPHIA — Mike Schmidt had already said his hellos and become a household name by 1980, when the Philadelphia Phillies third baseman stepped over the boundaries of greatness to become the most prosperous — and possibly the most complete — baseball player of his generation. Four times a Rawlings Gold Glove Award winner and three times the National League home-run leader, he was coming off a season in which he had hit 45 home runs when the Phils arrived in Clearwater, Fla....

A Record for the Rocket By Joe Giuliotti Eight months after undergoing shoulder surgery, Roger Clemens, the 23-year-old Boston Red Sox righthander, rocketed into the record books April 29 by striking out 20 batters in a 3-1 victory over the Seattle Mariners. Clemens’ fastball shot through the Fenway Park night like a bullet, clocked at speeds of 96 to 98 miles per hour, and his breaking ball was sharp as he became baseball’s nine-inning strikeout king....

The Dolphins shipped Kansas City five picks: 2022’s first, second, and fourth-rounder and 2023’s fourth and sixth-round picks. The deal made it clear Miami is pushing its chips in under first-time head coach Mike McDaniel, and proceeding with Tagovailoa as “the guy” after a lot of Deshaun Watson-to-Miami rumors last year....

Halilhodzic, who represented PSG as a player in the mid-1980s and coached them between 2003 and 2005, was scathing in his criticism of his former club’s Champions League exit at the hands of Manchester United in an interview with Le Parisien. The 66-year-old lambasted Tuchel’s side over their approach to the second leg at the Parc des Princes, where the French champions ceded a 2-0 first-leg lead to eventually exit on away goals after Marcus Rashford ’s controversial late penalty sealed a 3-1 win for United....

“I’ll be too old, mate. Yeah, I feel it.” Too old? Tuilagi would be only 32 at the 2023 tournament in France, but right now he feels more like 52. He can still bust up a defense, though. He’s been so beaten up by injuries that he has to do 30 minutes of warmups before he can consider doing team drills. “Ice baths, massage, Pilates, I just try and keep everything loose, especially after games and training,” he says....
