The fact that Iran is openly admitting to attacking US forces is a significant difference to how it usually operates, and shows how Soleimani's death has reshaped and escalated the confrontation.

Tehran launchessurface-to-surface missiles which they're ahem NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE (Iran nuclear deal) at Iraq's Ain Assad air base housing US troops. Same base that Trump & Pompeo visited in 2019.

Pentagon: “Iran launched more than a dozen ballistic missiles against U.S. military and coalition forces in Iraq. It is clear that these missiles were launched from Iran and targeted at least two Iraqi military bases hosting U.S. military and coalition”

Trump officials are bending over backwards to say he didn't threaten to commit a war crime after he repeatedly threatened to commit a war crime

MLB’s sign-stealing controversy broadens: Sources say the Red Sox used video replay room illegally in 2018News

Well I’m not really sure this one is a shock, we all expected that the Red Sox would be the other team doing this given the whole Apple Watch situation plus having Alex Cora as manager. NOT a good look for Cora. If this is true that means he would’ve been involved with both the Astros and Red Sox stealing signs. Yankees and Dodgers fans united.

This is going end up being every team, which is probably why we haven't heard any specific condemnations or teams speaking out.

But given assurances of anonymity, several league sources indicate the Astros, Dodgers, Red Sox, New York Yankees and Arizona Diamondbacks have been especially adept with technological surveillance. One source mentions the Cubs and Washington Nationals dabble a bit "but not as much as others." Another source says the Indians, while still another notes the Toronto Blue Jays and Texas Rangers once were suspected as well.

Discipline against the Houston Astros for using technology to cheat is likely to come within the next two weeks, sources familiar with the situation tell ESPN, and those in the crosshairs expect it to be harsh. Long suspensions are likely.

New York Giants are finalizing a deal to make Patriots’ wide receivers coach Joe Judge their next head coach, league sources tell ESPN. Deal was in the works as of last night, which is another reason Matt Rhule took the Panthers’ HC job.

The NFL is reviewing #Seahawks DE Jadeveon Clowney’s hit on #Eagles QB Carson Wentz for a possible fine, I’m told. No suspension and may not even result in a fine. Clowney wasn’t flagged on the play, which took Wentz out of Sunday’s playoff game with a concussion.

Baylor coach Matt Rhule finalizing a deal to become next coach of the Carolina Panthers.

Matt Rhule took over a 4-7 Temple team in 2013 and led them to 2 of their 3 10-win seasons within 4 years. He took over a Baylor team rocked by scandal in 2017 and had the Bears vying for a playoff spot within 3 seasons. The man can build and lead a football team.

Federal prosecutors on Tuesday charged a major donor to Trump’s inaugural committee with obstructing a federal investigation into whether foreign nationals unlawfully contributed to the inaugural celebrations. The donor, Imaad Zuberi, recently pleaded guilty in a separate case in Los Angeles to campaign finance violations, tax evasion and failing to register as a foreign agent. A criminal information filed Tuesday in Manhattan federal court accuses Zuberi, a globe-trotting Los Angeles venture capitalist, of taking “numerous steps” to interfere with the investigation into where the inaugural committee received its funding. Prosecutors say Zuberi backdated a $50,000 check and also deleted emails. Zuberi’s defense attorney, Tom O’Brien, declined to comment.

It’s extremely difficult now to escape the conclusion that @realDonaldTrump started a war because he was impeached.
