Del Potro, 30, underwent successful surgery on a fractured right kneecap in June and the Argentinian will miss the year’s final grand slam. The 2009 champion and last year’s runner-up at Flushing Meadows, Del Potro’s career has been ruined by wrist injuries and the US Open marks the third major he will miss in 2019. Del Potro, ranked 12th in the world, returned to the top 10 in the rankings in January 2018 after three and a half years....
The Daredevils lost by six wickets to a dominant Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Ferozeshah Kotla on Monday night. “As a batting group we need to build big partnerships. The set batsman will have to play a big innings which is not happening.

In the videos, a woman screams at two people working for Shipt, the Target-owned grocery delivery service, for supposedly speeding in a residential neighborhood and using the wrong entrance to get into the gated community. The first video implies that the man and woman yelling at the pair were not even the people they were delivering to. “These two people pulled up behind us cusing [sic] us out and blocking our way from leaving when we were trying to deliver geociers [sic],” the delivery person posted on the video....
Ryan Ryder was running for the seat held by Republican Representative Dusty Johnson but pulled out of the race after being scrutinized for tweets that were “a poor attempt at sarcasm” and “humor” which “crossed the line,” he told the Associated Press. Several of the tweets targeted Republican politicians in the state. In one tweet from November, Ryder suggested he was thinking of “making an animated video of me killing Johnson’s family, and then saying it was just a joke....
Luckily for Cousins, his opponent was not a real person, so a technical foul was avoided. That being said, he roughed up a folding chair pretty badly. The reaction from the lady is really what makes the video. We do understand Cousins’ frustration. He was getting abused by Zach Randolph for much of the game.
Representative Hakeem Jeffries of New York was questioned about the probe, and the impending vote in the House of Representatives to push the inquiry forward, during an appearance on CNN’s New Day on Wednesday morning. Asked if any Republicans would be supporting the impeachment vote, Jeffries said that “we’ll see what happens” and, if not, “that’s on them.” “I think the question that we should be asking is consistent with what the president earlier today said....
“I am heartbroken to announce that for family and personal reasons, I cannot continue this race for Congress,” Ausdal said in a statement. “After lengthy discussions with my team, attorneys, party officials, and others, the answer was clear, stepping aside would be best for the voters.” The Democrat explained that he would be disqualified from serving in Congress because his life is taking him away from the state of Georgia....
“Joe Biden has been very clear that this did not happen,” Perez said on ABC News This Week. “And he’s been equally clear that when women come forward with complaints of this nature they should be taken seriously, their complaints should be investigated, and they should be treated with dignity and he’s done exactly that.” Biden has outright denied the allegations repeatedly, and even challenged the Senate to produce any alleged documents pertaining to Reade’s 1993 sexual assault accusations against the former vice president....
This week, the Democratic Party’s desperate attempt to appeal to blue-collar workers with fake populist rhetoric is on full display. Don’t fall for it. Behind the talking points and media spin, the true “progressive” socialist policy agenda of the 2020 Democratic National Convention would be a disaster for the American people. According to a recent report from NPR, the Democrats originally planned to “highlight the plight of everyday Americans by giving small-business owners, teachers, factory workers and front-line health care workers prime-time speaking slots” at their convention....
In his appearance on CBS News’ Face the Nation, Carson responded to a declassified Pentagon report released last week that detailed hundreds of unexplained UFO sightings by U.S. Navy pilots since 2004. He chaired a classified briefing over the nine-page report that has since sparked extraterrestrial intrigue and stirred up decades of U.S. government and alien conspiracies on social media. The Indiana Democratic lawmaker met with other members of the House Intelligence Subcommittee on Counterterrorism, Counterintelligence and Counterproliferation Friday to discuss potential emerging threats from foreign militaries—or the possibility of potential alien activity....
Democratic groups launched advertising campaigns designed to promote more conservative candidates among potential Republican primary voters but were ultimately unsuccessful in the races for governor, U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives. The advertising sought to bolster the conservative credentials of potentially controversial candidates who were perceived as closer to former President Donald Trump in the apparent belief that more “MAGA” candidates will be easier to defeat in November....
The former Empire star was convicted on five counts of disorderly conduct on Thursday, with the jury finding he had made three false police reports about the supposed attack in Chicago. Some well-known Democrats in the House of Representatives and the Senate posted tweets in January 2019 expressing solidarity with Smollett and those messages were still available on Twitter when accessed by Newsweek early on Friday. Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, an independent who caucuses with the Democrats and has campaigned to be the party’s presidential nominee, tweeted in January 2019: “The racist and homophobic attack on Jussie Smollett is a horrific instance of the surging hostility toward minorities around the country....
According to FiveThirtyEight’s collection of surveys, Democrats beat Republicans in three of the four most recent polls asking the public which party they will back in the upcoming races. On September 6, a Yahoo News/YouGov poll found that 45 percent of registered voters said they would back a Democratic congressional candidate in their district if the election were held today, compared to 40 percent who would vote Republican. A Morning Consult poll published on September 6 also gave the Democrats a narrow 47 to 45 percent lead in the generic ballot, with an Insider Advantage survey showing voters would prefer the Democrats to control Congress over the GOP by 44....
“I hadn’t heard of it before, so let me take a look,” Feinstein said. “No one has ever told me that that’s a reality right now.” Feinstein was asked about abolishing the filibuster which allows a senator to hold up the passage of legislation by speaking for hours at a time. The California Democrat ruled out getting rid of the filibuster as part of an effort to pack the Supreme Court....
The path forward comes as a result of a recent decision to not include a $15 minimum wage increase in the multi-trillion dollar COVID-19 relief package currently making its way through Congress. President Joe Biden said he was “disappointed” but “respects” the ruling. At a recent CNN town hall, Biden expressed hesitation regarding bumping the minimum wage to $15—even though wages would increase incrementally until reaching $15 in 2025. After acknowledging he would be open to some kind of legislative negotiation that includes a gradual increase, he added, “It’s totally legitimate for small business owners to be concerned....
In a letter last week, 36 Democrats, led by Reps. Don Beyer and Ritchie Torres, along with Sen. Dianne Feinstein, asked the president to take the “necessary and long overdue step” to reduce the chances of a winter surge in coronavirus infections. “As the nation approaches holiday season, we ask that you put in place requirements for airline passengers to provide proof of full vaccination against COVID-19 or a negative test to board a domestic flight,” the letter said....

The Cling Ring increases the amount of health players have after they die, allowing them to keep 75% of their total rather than the standard 50%.

The big Argentine had come from a set down to defeat Leonardo Mayer and Philipp Kohlschreiber in the last two rounds, but there were no such struggles on Saturday as he cruised past Raonic 6-2 6-3.
