Speaking to Baier on Fox News Reporting, Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) claimed that his colleague Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) is preventing Trump from defending himself, while treating him worse than someone accused of a violent felony. “Adam Schiff has completely ignored any sense of fair play,” Sensenbrenner said. “He is managing leaks out of his bunker where all of these previous depositions have taken place. He has not allowed the president to be able to defend himself, or even call witnesses....

Brainchild of the conservative group Republicans for the Rule of Law [RRL], the truck directed onlookers to their website advocating President Donald Trump’s ouster from office so he may be replaced by Vice President Mike Pence.

Golem plays like a VR game that would have come out around the launch of PlayStation VR or the Oculus Rift. It doesn’t feature any of the real advancements that have been made in virtual reality in the years since its initial reveal, and this is apparent right off the bat. For example, a cardinal sin that many early VR games made was start off with long cut-scenes that have players do nothing but watch the game happen around them, and Golem is guilty of this....

The defending champion shot a 5-under 67 on Saturday to move to 13 under and pull away from England's Richard Finch at Leopard Creek. Victor Riu of France was another shot back at 10 under. Schwartzel, the 2011 Masters champion, led after three rounds at the South African Open last weekend before slipping up on the final day.

His chance to force a playoff on the 18th hole vanished when his six-foot birdie putt circled the cup but would not drop....

Creamer's putt curled across the 18th green and then rolled slowly down the slope and directly into the hole.

With five tournaments remaining on the 2013 LPGA schedule, Pettersen is second to Park on the money list and in the Rolex Player of the Year rankings.
