“Is there a different standard for different sides of the aisle? We just had a president who lasted all four years with numerous allegations against him, so far as rape,” Whitmer said at a Politico Live event on Thursday. “No one on his own side of the aisle was making observations about whether or not he should stay in office. So is there a different standard? I guess one could conclude that....
Owner Jessica Jamenson shared a picture of her three-year-old dog Misia lying down in the spots once frequented by the family’s late cat. “They were super close,” Jamenson told Newsweek. “We adopted Carter the cat when he was only three months old and when we got him home they instantly clicked—got along right away. They’d even groom each other.” The picture of Misia next to an empty cat bed has received over 13,000 upvotes and prompted hundreds of comments since it was shared on Sunday....

MORE: Sports’ most gruesome injuries | Kendrick injury opens door for Peraza “I had a little ingrown hair and tried to scratch it,” he told reporters before the Dodgers hosted the Nationals on Wednesday. “It just started getting bigger and bigger.” The infection, later diagnosed as MRSA, resulted in a trip to a local emergency room....
Diego Costa’s dogfight to save Chelsea career Belgium international De Bruyne set up goals for Leroy Sane and Sergio Aguero in Saturday’s 3-0 Premier League win at Southampton, taking his assist tally to 13 in the top flight De Bruyne played on the right-hand side of City’s attack at St Mary’s but has spent much of the season as one of two advanced central midfielders alongside David Silva. The 25-year-old has also played in deeper midfield positions, including on the left of a diamond, and was City’s most advanced attacker when Guardiola opted to pack central areas for the Champions League trip to Barcelona....
That was a fairly outlandish consequence the City manager alluded to, in the event of UEFA’s two-season ban for Financial Fair Play breaches being upheld. However Monday’s verdict by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) to quash that punishment prompted talk of Guardiola being offered fresh terms to run beyond June 2021. City still have an FA Cup semi-final against Arsenal and a Champions League showdown with Real Madrid on the horizon, while 2020-21 will represent the first time Guardiola has taken charge of a fifth season with one club....
Liverpool nearing a real crisis Toure was frozen out at the start of the season after Guardiola and the Ivorian’s agent Dimitri Seluk became engaged in a row via the media. The Catalan insisted Toure would not play until he apologised for Seluk claiming Guardiola had humiliated the player by not including him in City’s Champions League squad. Toure eventually offered a public apology and the former Barcelona midfielder found himself back in first-team reckoning in November....
Guardiola sets unwanted record City hoarded possession during the first half, but, after Raheem Sterling had penalty appeals waved away, Romelu Lukaku scored from the hosts’ only shot before half-time at Goodison Park. Guardiola’s men collapsed shambolically thereafter, a flaky defence cut to ribbons as Kevin Mirallas scored 62 second into the second period and teenagers Tom Davies and Ademola Lookman opened their Everton accounts during a raucous finale....
Having graduated through the famed La Masia academy at Camp Nou, the Spain international admits it was a wrench to walk away from his roots. Ox: We don’t worry about history He was, however, a much sought-after talent in the summer of 2013 and a player that could not be guaranteed regular starts as part of a star-studded squad in Catalonia. Thiago had various options to consider, but the presence of Guardiola - the man who handed him his Barca debut - in Germany convinced him that the Allianz Arena was the right destination for him....
The Catalan has suffered setbacks during previous spells at Barcelona and Bayern Munich, but never has he been beaten by four clear goals. Everton make easy work of Man City An unwanted record has now been chalked up, with City labouring their way through a forgettable performance at Goodison Park. Guardiola’s side had their moments on Merseyside, but individual mistakes littered a disjointed display. City were only one goal down at the interval, after seeing Romelu Lukaku break the deadlock, but fell to pieces in the second half....
Police barricaded the front doors of the House chamber while insurrectionists busted windows and attempted to storm the room. Eventually, the Capitol complex was evacuated using the underground tunnel system that leads to office buildings, as pro-Trump protesters filled nearly every inch of the entire first floor of the building, including the floors of both chambers. The violent insurrection was in response to a joint session of Congress to certify President-elect Joe Biden’s Electoral College win....
Gyan, 31, was named captain to succeed John Mensah in 2012 by coach Kwesi Appiah but Tagoe believes the former Al Khartoum coach made a ‘terrible’ mistake since Essien and Muntari were the seniors at that time. “What I can say is that everybody has his or her opinion. Even when a president is elected, someone will still argue that he doesn’t deserve to be the President,” Gyan told Hot FM....
Blanchard is currently behind bars for the murder of her mother, which she enlisted her then-boyfriend, Nicholas Godejohn, to commit.

The FC Barcelona Twitter account announced the out of the blue the signing of Paris Saint Germain midfielder Angel Di Maria. The hack was quickly admitted, though. The tweet came from each of FC Barcelona’s Twitter accounts for different languages, but not the main FC Barcelona account. The main account, however, wasn’t spared from the hack. Here’s what came from the FC Barcelona Spanish language account. Every other Barça Twitter account, such as FCB’s Japanese and Catalán accounts, also tweeted the same three tweets....
And so, there’s a hint of a suspicion the explosion was intentional-a collision of ego, ineptitude and subtle interests that sets the stage for far more substantive (and monumental) battles to come. The ineptitude is worrisome: Bill Clinton seems entangled in periphera, and rattled. His first 10 days in office were dominated by perennially disastrous “lifestyle” issues everything from quotas (the curse of Zoe Baird) to gay rights to the much remarked-upon return of the First Lady’s maiden name....
