A woman reported that Ronaldo assaulted her in Vegas in 2009. "In recent months, Ronaldo has also been part of diplomatic efforts to woo the U.S. President Donald Trump."
The United States Soccer Federation and the Portuguese Football Federation will soon confirm a match between their men’s teams to take place in Atlanta in March 2026.

The match could end an almost 12-year absence for Cristiano Ronaldo from playing football in the U.S.

Barcelona had originally planned to return to Camp Nou with a limited capacity in November 2024.

On Monday, the City Council approved a license for 45,401 fans to attend matches at the stadium.

A year after they hoped, Barca are returning home for their game against Athletic Club this Saturday.

Really interesting article. We'd fully support these changes to make bike repair a valued trade leading to rewarding careers! #yycbike
Bike mechanics want the government to recognize the job as a distinct profession and skilled trade.

Right now, they're officially grouped with workers who repair accordions, jukeboxes and the safety valves on pipelines.

Hi Sally. When Weiss published a supposed expose on the death of George Floyd, a veteran criminal justice reporter showed in deep detail that the piece was not just wrong but filled with falsehoods and misrepresentations. Weiss did not retract the piece. What do you think of that?
This is really smart. Amazed at the hysteria over the ascendance of a woman entrepreneur who clearly knows how to cover and sell news and who's not afraid to take on a mob. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
