Jake Tapper Calls Out Dems For Believing Parnas Allegations Unquestioned Says He Has A Serious Credibility Problem

“He’s under indictment for campaign finance charges. The foreign minister of Ukraine told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour that he doesn’t trust a word Parnas is saying,” said Tapper. He then criticized “people out there on social media—Democrats” who, in his point of view, were “acting as if this guy is the second coming of Theodore Roosevelt or something.” Nia Malika-Henderson, CNN’s senior political reporter, replied that this might be a good reason for Parnas to testify under oath....

Jamal Adams Sounds Done With The Jets In Instagram Post Reportedly Requests Trade

Adams is entering his fourth year in a Jets uniform, so he’s now eligible for a long-term extension. Adams has been pretty vocal about it, and now he sounds like he’s just about done with the Jets. It’s understandable, considering his desire for a new contract comes after back-to-back years of being named to the NFL’s All Pro team, and his first All-Pro nod in 2020. Earlier Thursday, in a response to an Instagram user, Adams made it clear he still wants his money and cast doubt about his Jets future:...

Jameel Mccline Details Overcoming Prison Bid To Have Respectable Heavyweight Career

Jameel McCline was a tenant in a brutal and torturous environment long before emerging as a heavyweight contender during the talent-laden 1990s. An inmate at New York State’s Attica hellhole, alongside the ‘Son of Sam’ and Mark Chapman, McCline considered the notorious correctional facility, along with Rikers Island, home during his late teens and early twenties. Trapped in darkness with only the beat of his heart and inner-voice keeping him company, McCline was unable to imagine the next day, let alone envisage gruelling ring battles against the likes of Wladimir Klitschko and Shannon Briggs....

James Rubin Moves On

I really don’t know. I’ve been kidding the secretary that it’s going to be interesting to try to remember where the government’s views end and my views start. There is often increased focus on terrible humanitarian disasters… I think that there’s no question that journalists’ coverage of the Bosnia conflict helped to galvanize the world to act. I think that some of those lessons were drawn and in the next similar case, Kosovo, action was taken much earlier....

Japan Devoted Dads

But then came a revelation. This past summer, Yamaguchi took his family to a traditional festival at his children’s school. There was nothing unusual about the experience–until the businessman approached a few food stalls manned exclusively by dads, who were doing all the cooking and catering to the kids. Yamaguchi says it was an “amazing” scene: Here were salarymen like himself performing quasi-domestic duties–in public–and entertaining kids. And they all seemed to be happy....

Japan S Tidal Wave Vote

Though Abe took the helm with Japanese foreign policy increasingly under the global microscope, CFR’s Sheila A. Smith says in a new interview that Japanese voters did not vote primarily on international issues. Rather, Smith says the LDP found itself crippled by popular concerns over unemployment, as well as failed attempts to reform the country’s imploding pension system. These worries, coupled with scandals within Abe’s cabinet—his defense minister recently resigned over comments suggesting the World War II atomic bomb attacks were inevitable—hobbled both Abe and the LDP....
