It was Aug. 19, 2006—my 10th wedding anniversary. I was playing with my 3-year-old son in the living room, helping him solve a puzzle, when I felt something go wrong inside my brain, something terribly wrong. To this day, I cannot explain what it was I was feeling, only that it was something like a panic attack. I stood up and ran to the bedroom where my husband was sleeping, holding my hands around my head in a silent scream....

Lindell has been one of the key promoters of Trump’s baseless conspiracy theory that the 2020 election was “rigged” or “stolen” in favor of President Joe Biden. While Lindell has put forward alleged “evidence” of widespread voter fraud, it has been consistently discredited and debunked by election experts and computer scientists, as well as by Republican and Democratic officials. During a Friday evening program on his Frank Speech website, Lindell took aim at Fox News....

Pence’s decision not to send the election results back to the states caused a rift between himself and former President Donald Trump. With the former vice president potentially eying a 2024 presidential run, he’s sought to balance defending himself against Trump’s attacks without alienating the former president’s base, which he’d need to win an election. Pence has largely chalked up the disagreement over January 6 to a difference of opinion....
In an interview with the Christian Broadcast Network [CBN], Pence was asked by David Brody whether he was “scratching his head a bit on John Roberts.” Brody added that conservatives have had a track record of having some problems with Supreme Court judges." A number of recent cases has seen Roberts side with the court’s liberal bloc on LGBTQ discrimination, upholding the Affordable Care Act, and rejecting a Nevada church’s request to overturn limits on attendance due to the coronavirus pandemic....
The Democrat-led House voted on Tuesday to urge Pence to use the amendment and strip Trump of his power, but the vice president refused to do so in a letter, suggesting the House resolution was an attempt to exert inappropriate pressure on him. “I do not believe that such a course of action is in the best interest of the Nation or consistent with our Constitution,” Pence wrote. “Last week, I did not yield to pressure to exert power beyond my constitutional authority to determine the outcome of the election, and I will not now yield to efforts in the House of Representatives to play political games at a time so serious in the life of our Nation....
“January 6 was a dark day in the history of the United States Capitol,” Pence told the audience at a Lincoln-Reagan Dinner fundraiser sponsored by the Hillsborough County Republican Committee in Manchester, New Hampshire. “But thanks to the swift action of the Capitol Police and federal law enforcement, violence was foiled. The capital was secured. And that same day we reconvened the Congress and did our duty under the Constitution and the laws of the United States,” he continued....

“I feel good,” Trout told reporters before Wednesday’s 11-2 loss to the Astros (via the Orange County Register). “I feel fine. Just being cautious. I think I’ll be available to hit tonight, and I should be fine to play tomorrow.” Angels manager Brad Ausmus wouldn’t be quite as definitive Wednesday. “We’re going to get him evaluated again when the doctors get in here, and hopefully he’ll be able to go tomorrow full bore,” Ausmus told reporters....
At a weigh-in for the Tyson-Tyson bout, Tyson told reporters that he expects Tyson to be his toughest opponent yet. “I’m the craziest person I’ve ever fought,” Tyson told reporters. “I’m so crazy, sometimes I think I’m crazy to step in the ring with me.” Boxing insiders say that Tyson will have to watch out for Tyson’s punishing left jab, as well as his murderous right uppercut, which pros expect Tyson to use liberally against Tyson....

Newcastle Jets sack Scott Miller Trani had only been appointed Miller’s assistant in June but within three months the pair’s relationship had become untenable, with their spat coming to a head on a pre-season tour of China and Hong Kong....

Both the young victims were given first aid by the officers and are currently being treated at a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. “Preliminary investigation indicates both victims were with a group of juveniles throwing snowballs at cars passing by,” Milwaukee Police said in a statement....
This magnetism has nothing to do with magnets applied to the skin or with animal magnetism, the charlatanry invented by Franz Mesmer in the 19th century, although skeptics have worried that people cured by repetitive TMS have merely been mesmerized. Repetitive TMS uses real magnetic fields to induce changes in brain function, and there’s some evidence it may make nerve-cell connections more efficient. It may modify how regions of the brain work together to regulate mood....
