The committee sent a letter on Thursday requesting a voluntary interview with Ivanka Trump, aged 40, who was a White House adviser to her father during his presidency. In the letter, Rep. Bennie Thompson, the panel’s chair, said Ivanka was in direct contact with her father during key moments on January 6, 2021, when a mob of Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol in a bid to halt the certification of Joe Biden’s election victory....

Axios shared a clip of the interview on Friday where Karl asked Trump about those chants and whether he was concerned for the former vice president’s safety. Pence reportedly hid in an underground loading dock during the storming of the Capitol. Karl asked Trump about the “terrible” chants directed at Pence and the former president responded that “the people were very angry.” “They were saying ‘hang Mike Pence,’” Karl said....

The grand jury will decide whether to issue an indictment of criminal charges against Trump on different matters. The matters include hush-money payments made on his behalf, as well as whether the Trump Organization misreported the value of its New York properties for financial gain. The organization may also have illegally compensated employees in ways meant to avoid taxes. In February, the Supreme Court rejected Trump’s attempt to block Vance from viewing eight years of his tax returns....

In a new Pew Research Center poll, conducted among 10,543 registered voters September 30 to October 5, Biden had a 10-point lead overall in terms of who intended to back him or were leaning towards doing so. More than half, 52 percent, swayed to the Democrat, compared to 42 percent for Trump. When methods of voting were taken into account, however, there was a split in which candidate led depending on how ballots were cast....

On Wednesday, a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) system outage saw flights grounded for several hours across the U.S. More than 6,000 flights had been delayed as of 10:48 a.m. ET, according to data from the flight tracking website FlightAware, with over 1,000 flights cancelled. Speaking in a clip that has now been viewed more than 320,000 times, Donald Trump Jr. went on a frustrated rant about the incident. He said: “[This is] a blow to people who get really important jobs with no experience, to basically check off some identity politics boxes, folks....

“I haven’t personally thought about it, I mean there’s some people talking about it in terms of polls—I’ve seen a bunch that has me pretty high up the list if not at the top of it. Who knows,” he said when asked by Fox News’ Paul Steinhauser at the event in Dallas, Texas. “The reality with that job is you also have to want to do the day job, right....

“The whole world is watching the tragedy which just took place in Waukesha, Wisconsin, it is devastating, horrible, and very very sick!” Trump said in a statement released early Monday. “My heart goes out to the people of this great, beautiful and hardworking community. We must find the answers to this terrible crime, and stop these violent and depraved acts from happening again. I am with you Waukesha, and always will be!...

Retired Lieutenant Colonel Ralph Peters was once a regular contributor to Fox News as a military analyst. He has described the network as “amoral” and “opportunistic” since severing ties with Fox News and becoming a fierce critic of both the network and of Trump. On Sunday, Trump tweeted a quote from evangelical pastor Robert Jeffress. “If the Democrats are successful in removing the President from office (which they will never be), it will cause a Civil War like fracture in this Nation from which our Country will never heal,” the tweet read, attributed to Jeffress....

Jason Lance, a radiologist from Ogden, Utah, attempted to reach the summit of the tallest mountain in North America in May. The Associated Press reported that Lance teamed with another man court documents named “A.R.” to climb the West Buttress route. When A.R. began to show signs of altitude sickness, Lance reportedly left him with another climbing group to try to summit alone, taking A.R.’s satellite communication device with him....

Grade 1: The nipple protracts easily when you apply light pressure to the areola. When pressure is released, the nipple maintains its projection, rather than retracting immediately. Grade 1 inverted nipples are unlikely to interfere with breastfeeding, though you still may have cosmetic concerns. There is little to no fibrosis (excess connective tissue) in Grade 1 inverted nipples. Grade 2: The nipple protracts when pressure is applied, though not very easily, and retracts as soon as pressure is released....

Dr. Paul Marik worked at Eastern Virginia Medical School (EVMS) since 2009, where he held the positions of professor of medicine and chief of pulmonary and critical care medicine.

Following the events of Loki and Spider-Man: No Way Home, Marvel Studios’ Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, as its title implies, follows Benedict Cumberbatch’s sorcerer hero through the alternate realities of the multiverse as he tries to protect teenager America Chavez (Xochitl Gomez) from those looking to steal her dimension-hopping powers. Raimi replaced director Scott Derrickson, who helmed the first film. RELATED: Doctor Strange In the Multiverse Of Madness Is Now The Highest Grossing Movie Of 2022...

Romana joined the Fourth Doctor on his adventures and definitely gave him a run for his money, keeping him on his toes and challenging him on more than one level. Not only was she a great companion on the show, but there’s never been another like her.

The Dodgers are the first team to have at least a 36-6 record since the 1942 Cardinals: They look to capture their first World Series since 1988, and perhaps make success over a random span of 42 games look a little less arbitrary. Note: This list doesn’t include the successes of National Association or American Association baseball teams — only squads that would eventually join the American League or the National League later on....

What’s new In recent years, the Dodgers have earned a reputation as being "Yankees West." They have shown a fondness for a particular brand of conspicuous consumption (i.e., Big Money for Big Names). So it’s a little surprising when you realize that their biggest move of the offseason was extending Clayton Kershaw’s contract. Granted, that contract made Kershaw baseball’s first $30 million man, but you expected the Dodgers to snag a Masahiro Tanaka here and a Robinson Cano there, maybe topping things off by drastically overpaying a reliever they don’t really need....

The Dodgers got off to a slow start at the plate but eventually took a 2-1 lead over Washington in the National League Division Series (NLDS), with Game 4 set for Monday. The Dodgers will go with Rich Hill against Max Scherzer.

Coming into the game, Brandon Lowe was 6 for 61 (.098) this postseason, but he broke out in a big way in Game 2. Lowe got things started for Tampa Bay with a solo shot in the first inning. Then, after Joey Wendle delivered a two-out, two-run double in the fourth, Lowe added a two-out, two-run homer in the fifth to give the Rays a 5-0 lead. While the Rays’ offense was sizzling early, Blake Snell was cooking on the mound....

The Red Sox staff did its best to stifle Dodgers bats, and stifle them they did: the Dodgers scored three runs off Boston starter Chris Sale in just over four innings of work, and would score just one run over the next five in the 8-4 loss. Manny Machado’s three-RBI night just wasn’t enough for the Dodgers, who left a small village on the basepaths in the game. It was the heroics of pinch-hitting Eduardo Núñez which sealed the win for Boston — Núńez hit a three-run bomb in the seventh to push Boston to an 8-4 lead, which they would not relinquish....

The website Defend the House has taken many of the more popular titles of the latter part of this year to task in order to investigate what incredible stunts players really can pull off, and which are simply urban legends. Their most recent video uncovers some of Call of Duty: Black Ops’ myths including whether or not two care package helicopters will collide with each other. Have a look at the video....
