Georgia Republicans finally have their Senate nominee. Now comes the hard part. A bruised GOP Rep. Mike Collins (R-Ga.) will go head to head against Democratic incumbent Sen. Jon Ossoff, a prolific fundraiser who many Republicans worry will be difficult to beat this November. While Republicans spent months turning their fire on each other, Ossoff…
President Donald Trump’s primary victory spree has a new $100 million asterisk. That’s the record-breaking sum the upstart self-funding businessman Rick Jackson spent to defeat Trump’s chosen candidate in the GOP primary for Georgia governor. Jackson’s flood of ads helped drown out Lt. Gov. Burt Jones and other Republicans up and down the ballot, as…
Tuesday was a day full of superstars at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. However, one player continued to show why he’s the greatest of all-time.

Kylian Mbappé scored the 13th and 14th World Cup goals of his career Tuesday, moving the France forward past Pelé, Lionel Messi and countryman Just Fontaine and into a tie for third most in tournament history. He also set a scoring record for France’s national team. Mbappé first scored in the 66th minute of France’s…
Argentina opened its title defense the way the whole planet except Algeria hoped it would: through Lionel Messi.
