Kane Brown went to the hospital after being hit in the head by a golf ball, suffering a split ear and a concussion.

The Edmonton Oilers have hired Mike Babcock, extending a streak of five consecutive coaches with names containing slang terms for male anatomy.

Soccer fans attending the World Cup game at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia, were greeted by a unique campaign as they entered the venue.

According to a viral photo on social media, the organizers set up a sign and passed out hospitality pamphlets to make Muslim attendees aware of their Islam-approved amenities.

'It didn't feel like simple visitor assistance. It felt like the promotion of a religion.'

Former Muslim and current Christian apologist Brother Rachid posted the image and questioned whether the campaign constituted an endorsement and promotion of the Islamic faith.

"Right after scanning your ticket at the entrance to Mercedes-Benz Stadium, there were groups of people handing out 'Muslim Hospitality' pamphlets. They showed where to pray and which food was halal," he wrote.

Rachid, who is Moroccan, was attending the World Cup match between Morocco and Haiti on Wednesday.

"Then, just a few steps inside, there was a large sign with the same information. It didn't feel like simple visitor assistance. It felt like the promotion of a religion," he added. "The stadium doesn't hand every fan a printed map, stadium rules, or event information, those are all available online. Yet for Islam, there were printed pamphlets being handed to everyone and an entire team dedicated to distributing them."

He went on to point out that some Islamic scholars consider soccer religiously forbidden, or haram. His post went viral with thousands of likes, and some Muslims replied in defense of the accommodations.

"Yeah maybe it’s because Muslim[s] are the only devout followers of their religion in comparison to Jews, Hindus and lol, Christians?" mocked one user on X.

The next World Cup match at the stadium will be between the Congo Democratic Republic and Uzbekistan on Saturday. The latter country is a Muslim-majority country, although the government is secular in nature.

The online fan guide for "Atlanta Stadium" on the FIFA website indicates that they will have the hospitality pamphlet campaign at that game as well as specially staffed prayer areas for men and women and halal food.

A spokesperson for a company affiliated with the stadium told Blaze News that the accommodations were similar to those made for people on vegan diets and those with sensory sensitivity issues.

Blaze News reached out to FIFA for comment.

Don't blame Trump for Jimmy Kimmel's suspension last year, says former Disney CEO Bob Iger — it was purely an in-house decision.

"We thought it was in bad taste," Iger told the Financial Times, referring to the late-night host's on-air remarks about Charlie Kirk shortly after his death.

'An ill-timed and probably inappropriate comment.'

Murderous monologue

Five days after Kirk was assassinated during a college tour stop in Utah on September 10, 2025, Kimmel addressed the killing in his opening monologue, declaring that the "MAGA gang [is] desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it."

Two days later, on September 17, Disney suspended production of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" Production was resumed on September 23.

Iger, who was CEO of Disney from 2022 to 2026, denied speculation that complaints from the Trump administration were the real reason ABC and parent company Disney pulled the show.

Iger also revealed that Kimmel was asked to apologize for his remarks, saying "We just wanted him to acknowledge that it was an ill-timed and probably inappropriate comment."

Persecution complex

Speculation that the executive branch was behind Kimmel's suspension stemmed chiefly from an appearance FCC Chairman Brendan Carr made on a podcast, where he said, "We can do this the easy way or the hard way," regarding the talk-show host.

"These companies can find ways to change conduct and take action, frankly, on Kimmel, or there’s going to be additional work for the FCC ahead," Carr remarked, per Variety.

Kimmel, too, claimed he was the victim of a government plot to silence him; however the alleged plot would only last five days. Upon returning to the network, Kimmel's show aired a compilation of news stories surrounding his suspension, where multiple channel were shown calling his return to ABC a "huge" and "pivotal" moment in history.

Hero to zero

As Blaze News reported at the time, Kimmel received multiple standing ovations from his audience, becoming visibly emotional as he recalled messages of love he had received for being the alleged target of a government censorship plot.

Kimmel's remarks were a reversal of his previous comments, as he told his viewers that he was not actually trying to pin any certain ideology on Kirk's assassin.

"I have no illusions about changing anyone's mind," Kimmel said. "But I do want to make something clear because it's important to me as a human. And that is you understand that it was never my intention to make light of the murder of a young man. I don't think there's anything funny about it."

In April, Kimmel joked about first lady Melania Trump having "a glow like an expectant widow."

Two days later, another assassination attempt was made on President Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, considered the third attempt on the president's life.

Justice Alito's majority opinion and Justice Sotomayor's sharp dissent clash over whether undocumented persons must be physically in the U.S. for asylum.

Liberal elites figured it was right and just over the past decade to admit into Europe millions of migrants from the third world.

Childless former Chancellor of Germany Angela Merkel marked the consensus with an expression of misguided optimism, telling her countrymen, "We can do it!" and extending a warm welcome to military-aged men from Islamic terrorist hotbeds such as Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria.

'It has no place in Denmark.'

Europe proved it could "do it" — but the consequences have been severe and far-reaching.

Migrants have, for example, helped drive a devastating spike in crime across Europe, especially rape — cases of which European Union data indicates increased by 141% between 2013 and 2023. The continent also saw a dramatic rise in Islamic terrorist attacks. In France alone, there were at least 53 attacks and over 290 related deaths between 2013 and April 2024.

Denmark, among the nations still dealing with the fallout of the migrant crisis, is now clamping down on a byproduct of its admission of migrants with alien cultures.

Morten Bødskov, the liberal government's immigration minister, recently told the Danish news agency Ritzau that the government is planning to ban the Islamic call to prayer, stating that parts of the Nordic country now feel like "a suburb of Islamabad," reported the Telegraph.

"The call to prayer should not be heard over Danish rooftops," said Bødskov. "It has no place in Denmark, and you shouldn’t be in any doubt whether you’ve ended up in a suburb of Islamabad when you walk around Denmark."

Just as Denmark wasn't sheepish about its reluctance to accept multitudes of migrants over the past decade, it similarly hasn't been shy about pushing back against the attempted Islamic conquest of its public spaces and making the country unattractive to would-be migrants.

It has, for instance, ruffled the feathers of European Union officials and liberal commenters by cracking down in recent years on "parallel societies" and forcing migrants to relocate from an area if it has too many foreigners.

The government has also banned full-face Islamic veils like the burka and the niqab in public spaces and entertained lawmakers' proposals to reinforce Danish culture by serving pork in public schools, compelling immigrants to celebrate Christmas, and removing prayer rooms from educational institutions.

While parts of the country reportedly already have bylaws in place forbidding the Islamic call to prayer from being blasted on loudspeakers, Bødskov — expressly concerned about a creeping "Islamization" taking "up too much of the public space" — wants a universal ban.

This will be the third time that a Danish immigration minister has attempted to ban the Islamic call to prayer. Previous investigations into the legality of such a ban have been held up by elections and corresponding changes in government.

According to the Danish government, Islam is the largest non-Christian religion in the country today with roughly 270,000 adherents presently residing in the country. In addition to the two mega-mosques in Copenhagen, there are an additional 100 mosques scattered throughout the country.

A woman allegedly caught on video dumping garbage all over a Manhattan street before stealing a special-edition New York Knicks trash bin has been canned from her corporate job. Reports say the viral trash-can culprit was later identified as a JPMorgan Chase executive.

More than 2 million people descended upon lower Manhattan on June 18 for the New York Knicks' ticker-tape victory parade to celebrate the NBA team's first championship in 53 years, according to the NYPD.

'First, we would reiterate previous comments that dumping trash onto the street and stealing public property for your own personal use are both illegal, antisocial behaviors, and not what New Yorkers do.'

Prior to the championship parade, the New York City Department of Sanitation released limited-edition blue- and orange-colored garbage cans to commemorate the Knicks' long-awaited NBA championship. The Knicks-themed bins were situated in the "Canyon of Heroes" corridor of lower Manhattan.

While the Knicks parade had several viral moments, one of the most widely shared videos from the celebration was a woman donning Knicks garb, emptying garbage from a Knicks-themed trash can on the street, and then stealing the receptacle.

A post on the X social media platform shared on June 18, with nearly 4 million views, shows a smiling woman posing with a Knicks-themed trash can for a photo in the subway.

On Tuesday, the New York Post identified the woman as 40-year-old Angie Baez.

Citing her LinkedIn profile, the Post noted that Baez was a JPMorgan Chase employee who was promoted to executive director of community and industry engagement for card and connected commerce over a year ago.

Sources told the Post that JPMorgan officials "looked into the incident after the video surfaced."

The New York Post reported that Baez "was fired Tuesday over the incident."

A JPMorgan Chase spokesperson told the Post, "This employee is no longer with the company."

On Wednesday, a JPMorgan spokesperson confirmed to NBC News that Baez is no longer employed by the company.

"The spokesperson would not comment on if she left the company as a result of the video," according to NBC News.

On Wednesday, the Department of Sanitation confirmed that the trash can was returned. The Department of Sanitation shared a post on Facebook of the Knicks-themed trash can with the caption: "Home sweet home."

The Department of Sanitation issued a statement to NBC News that read:

First, we would reiterate previous comments that dumping trash onto the street and stealing public property for your own personal use are both illegal, antisocial behaviors, and not what New Yorkers do. On top of all that, doing both on camera is incredibly stupid.

RELATED: DEI went into hiding — but remains as dangerous as ever

On Saturday, the New York City Police Department informed the Post that it had not received any complaints related to the incident and that Baez has not been charged with any crimes.

Under New York State law, the theft of property valued at $1,000 or less is prosecuted under New York Penal Law § 155.25 as petit larceny, a Class A misdemeanor.

"Consequences are often minimal — usually a fine, summons, or community service for first-time offenders," according to the Post. "The littering that accompanied the theft could bring additional penalties."

The Department of Sanitation confirmed to Fox News that NYC Sanitation Police slapped Baez with two summonses following the incident: a $75 fine for littering and a $100 penalty for impeding sanitation operations.

A request for comment from JPMorgan Chase was not returned to Blaze News by the time of publication.

Baez did not immediately respond to NBC News and the New York Post.

On her last day as director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard released a bombshell report containing a collection of previously undisclosed communications that she says shed light on Dr. Anthony Fauci's role in the pandemic response.

“Before the COVID pandemic, Dr. Fauci, as head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, provided millions in U.S. taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology,” Gabbard began.

“I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents that expose exactly how Fauci worked with politicized career leadership in the intelligence community to suppress the truth about his actions, the virus’ lab-leak origins, and his role in directing U.S. funding for this dangerous research that caused immeasurable harm and countless lost lives,” she said.

Gabbard went on to explain that Fauci’s relationships within the intelligence community “enabled him to assume three key roles that shield him from scrutiny.”

“First, Dr. Fauci funded dangerous gain-of-function coronavirus research linked to Big Pharma and their pursuit of universal vaccines worth trillions of dollars,” she said.

“Second, Dr. Fauci was the behind-the-scenes adviser who … pushed the intelligence community to endorse a natural animal origin to hide his dangerous gain-of-function research that he funded using taxpayer dollars,” she explained.

“Third … he publicly pushed lies, disinformation, and censorship using every platform available,” she added.

BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales is disgusted, though not surprised.

“As she was speaking, I felt like I have PTSD. In fact, maybe a lot of us do,” she says on “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered."

“They literally, purposely, intentionally let people die so that they could have an emergency mandate for a vaccine. They literally pushed ivermectin out of the way. … The rules all changed so that they could get everyone in America to inject themselves with an experiment,” she continues.

Following the report, the DOJ is now “weighing” a criminal case against Dr. Fauci.

“Just do it,” Gonzales comments.

“Why are we wasting another day not going after him on the things that we can go after him for?” she adds.
