President-elect Trump wants to again rename North America’s tallest peak

The Indianapolis Colts could show up to the stadium on Sunday with nothing to play for. Or the scenario may call for a victory so they can remain alive in the AFC playoffs. Either way, the Colts' postseason fate hangs on other teams as they enter Sunday's game against the lowly New York Giants at East Rutherford, N.J. Indianapolis (7-8) is mathematically alive in the playoff hunt but trails the Los Angeles Chargers and Denver Broncos by two games with two contests left. The Chargers and Broncos both have games on Saturday. If both nine-win clubs win, the Colts will be eliminated and miss the playoffs for the fourth straight season. Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson is well aware of the team's predicament and scenarios entering the game against the Giants (2-13), who have lost a franchise-record 10 straight games. "We still have an opportunity, with some help from other people," Richardson said. "But we just taking it one game at a time because it doesn't do us any good if everybody else does what they have to do to help us out and then we don't go out there and take advantage of it." Richardson (back/foot) sat out practice all week, and head coach Shane Steichen said Friday he is questionable to start Sunday, though he fell short of ruling him out. If Richardson is not ready to go, veteran Joe Flacco would be in line to start against New York. Flacco was just 1-3 as a starter when Richardson was sidelined or benched earlier this season. But Flacco (nine touchdowns, five interceptions) has a superior touchdown-to-interception ratio than Richardson (eight TDs, 12 interceptions) and has completed 66.5 percent of his passes compared to Richardson's 47.7 percent. No matter who starts, the game plan will revolve around star running back Jonathan Taylor, who rushed for 218 yards and three scores on 29 carries during last weekend's 38-30 home win over the Tennessee Titans. It was Taylor's second-most rushing yards in a game behind the club-record 253 he put up against the Jacksonville Jaguars during the 2020 season. The Giants are starting Drew Lock at quarterback for the fourth time in the past five games. Lock underwent an MRI exam on his passing shoulder Monday but no damage was found. He hurt it during Sunday's 34-7 road loss against the Atlanta Falcons. Lock is 0-3 as a starter this season and has completed just 52.7 percent of his passes. He has one touchdown and four interceptions in 129 attempts. "As a quarterback, the ball is in your hands every play and one or two bad plays can change a game," Lock said of his miscues. "You try to look at them individually, try to learn from each play individually and go onto the next week. Learn from what you did and just have a heavy emphasis on taking care of the ball." Giants coach Brian Daboll opted for Lock over Tommy DeVito, who is 0-2 as a starter this season. Daboll said he made the decision to continue the continuity from last week. Meanwhile, star rookie wideout Malik Nabers (toe) missed practice Thursday and called himself a game-day decision. Nabers has 97 receptions for 969 yards and four touchdown catches as one of the bright spots of the horrendous season. "It's tough on everybody. It's not just tough on me. It's tough on everybody," Nabers said of the team's troubles. "I'm continuing to keep my mental (attitude) strong, continue to move forward, continue to try to better the team, better myself. Lead by example. I feel like that's really all we can do in this state of mind that we're going through." In addition to Nabers, running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (ankle), defensive back Dee Williams (knee), defensive lineman Cory Durden (shoulder) and offensive lineman Greg Van Roten (knee) were limited in practice on Friday. Center John Michael Schmitz (ankle), linebacker Micah McFadden (neck), and defensive backs Raheem Layne (knee) and Greg Stroman (shoulder/shin) sat out practice. Richardson was one of three Colts to miss practice on Thursday. The others were tight end Mo Alie-Cox (toe) and linebacker E.J. Speed (knee). In the most recent meeting, the Giants routed the Colts 38-10 late in the 2022 season. --Field Level MediaBritish ambassador to Moscow Nigel Casey rudely brushed off an RT journalist after getting a dressing-down by the Russian Foreign Ministry over one of his employee’s spy activities. Edward Prior Wilks, second secretary in the British Embassy’s political department, was declared persona non grata because he “intentionally made false statements” on his visa application, the FSB said on Tuesday. The Russian security service also said it found evidence of Wilks’ involvement in “intelligence and sabotage activities.” Casey was summoned to the Foreign Ministry in Moscow on Tuesday, to receive the Russian complaint regarding his subordinate’s subversive actions. While leaving the building on Smolenskaya Square, the British ambassador ran into a crowd of reporters. “Buzz off!” he told RT’s Chay Bowes, who asked him about the espionage scandal. “Why can you spend hundreds of millions of pounds to kill Russian citizens, but you won’t pay for the pensioners’ fuel?” Bowes asked, as Casey fled into an embassy car, which then drove off. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has abolished the £300 ($390) winter fuel subsidy for millions of pensioners, citing holes in the budget, while doubling down on London’s support for Ukraine’s war effort. After expelling Wilks, the Russian Foreign Ministry announced it would subject all paperwork submitted by British diplomats to increased scrutiny. Moscow also warned London it would immediately retaliate if the UK chose to escalate the situation.

FBI agent accused of multiple rapes was found not guilty of attempted murder 2 years ago

Luigi Mangione , the suspected shooter in the murder case of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson , was frustrated with the "corporation and greed" of the healthcare industry ... this according to his handwritten manifesto. Journalist Ken Klippenstein recently released the manifesto reportedly found on Mangione when he was detained Monday in Altoona, PA . Law enforcement sources have confirmed the text to TMZ. The document, a 262-word letter addressed to "the Feds," comments on a number of topics ... including his issues with the healthcare business, especially UnitedHealthcare. Specifically, Mangione calls out the U.S. for having the "most expensive healthcare system in the world," but being only No. 42 in "life expectancy." LM goes on to call out UnitedHealthcare in particular ... labeling it the "largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart." He adds ... "They continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allowed them to get away with it." While Mangione apologizes "for any strife" he might've caused, he seemingly hints at the shooting of Thompson, writing, "These parasites simply had it coming." However, he did not name the UnitedHealthcare CEO directly. He did tell the feds he respected "what you do for the country," going on to confirm he worked alone ... highlighting "straggling notes and To Do list that illuminate the gist of it." Mangione ends his note saying this is "not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play" -- but he says he's simply "the first to face it with such brutal honesty." We've reached out to Mangione's lawyer for comment ... so far, no word back.
