“BLM has now proven itself to be the most powerful domestic terrorists [sic] organization in our country. After Maxine Waters threats could there have been any other verdict?” the Georgia Republican posted on Twitter after Chauvin, a former Minneapolis police officer, was convicted. In another tweet that evening, Greene posted: “DC is completely dead tonight. People stayed in and were scared to go out because of fear of riots. Police are everywhere and have riot gear....

Crenshaw made the comments on his official Instagram account, where he wrote in his stories: “She [Greene] doesn’t want solutions and she doesn’t care if you get censored. She just wants to be a victim so she can keep asking you for campaign donations. It’s a scam.” His posts came after the Georgia congresswoman was permanently suspended from Twitter over the weekend for repeatedly violating the platform’s policy against sharing COVID-19 disinformation....

Greene accused the Democrat of inciting riots in Minnesota, while pointing out that Waters represents California’s 43rd congressional district. “You crossed state lines and incited riots, violence against police, shootings at the MN NG, and threatened a jury as a sitting US Congresswoman,” Greene wrote in a Sunday night tweet addressing Waters. “@SpeakerPelosi surely you will expel this criminal from Congress and uphold the law!” the Georgia Republican tweeted, along with a photo of the U....

That investigation overshadowed the Spartans’ spring game and made it difficult for the program to move forward from a disappointing 3-9 season in 2016. About a week after those charges were filed on June 7, however, Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio finally moved on to 2017.

CNBC contributor Carl Quintanilla first shared the clip to Twitter on Saturday, tweeting to Hamill’s account and asking the actor if he could “share any color” on the footage. On Sunday afternoon, Hamill — who has previously shared illuminating tidbits of information about the classic sci-fi films — retweeted the video with some of that requested background color. “My screen-test for @starwars w/ Harrison on the 1st day I ever met him....

The scenes from the original “Top Gun” have become mainstays in Americana culture. After an almost 40-year break, its sequel, “Top Gun: Maverick,” recently passed the $700-million mark in North America and $1.4 billion worldwide, edging out golden-age Marvel fare “Black Panther” as the fifth-highest-grossing movie ever. This success wasn’t an accident; the film was backed by a unique marketing strategy that showed business acumen. As someone who has worked in marketing and media for more than a decade, it’s hard not to see the connections everywhere I go....

MORE: Every American League team’s worst trade ever The Marlins, in second place in the NL East at 41-37 entering Thursday’s play, were seeking bullpen help, and Rodney, 39, was having a strong season as the Padres closer — at a reasonable price, always a consideration in Miami. Rodney has a 0.31 ERA and 17 saves, with 10.4 K/9, 3.8 BB/9 ratio. He joins a Marlins bullpen in which A....

The multiple sacrifices we players make in order to stand out among the best can be overwhelming, but we do it because we love the game; we do it because we have a strong desire to leave a mark in history. We all want to be regarded as one of the best to ever play. MORE FROM FORSETT: League of family men | Fool’s gold | God care about football?...

The Zhurong rover, part of the China National Space Administration’s (CNSA) Tianwen-1 Mars mission, landed on May 15 this year on what was China’s first attempt to send a rover there. On Monday, 100 days later, Chinese state-affiliated media outlets shared a sweeping panorama of Mars in which the rover can be seen parked right next to a sand dune. According to CNSA the rover has now traveled 1,064 meters (nearly 3,500 feet) south from its landing site....

Kostas Mitroglou and Lucas Ocampos both netted hat-tricks, with Luiz Gustavo, Dimitri Payet and Clinton N’Jie also on the scoresheet in the remarkable triumph. It was the first time Marseille had won by a nine-goal margin since they beat Chambery 10-1 in the same competition in 1948. Amazingly, their nine goals came from only 10 shots on target. Marseille led 4-0 after only 20 minutes, with Luiz Gustavo, Payet, Ocampos and Mitroglou all scoring....

The five-time Pro Bowler who came out of retirement in the offseason to play in Oakland rushed for 72 yards on 18 carries in the Raiders’ 26-16 win over the Titans last week.

After the Seahawks’ 24-20 win over Kansas City in Week 11, Lynch dressed quickly and exited the locker room without speaking to reporters. He later talked to a pair of NFL.com reporters by phone, but the league decided that wasn’t sufficient and popped him with a $50,000 fine for his indescretion and another $50,000 fine for similar actions in 2013 that were “held in abeyance in anticipation of future cooperation....

MORE: Stars who retired before age 30 The former Seahawks running back last week traveled with ex-teammate Cliff Avril (along with Lions linebacker Stephen Tulloch and Buccaneers tackle Godser Cherilus) to Port-au-Prince, Haiti. There, the athletes helped rebuild an elementary school and hosted a mobile medical clinic among other activities, per Seahawks.com. “It’s awesome to have their support, it’s awesome to be in a situation where guys are willing to take that step with you,” Avril said of having other NFL players come along with him....

To some, Martha Stewart finally got her just desserts. To others, Martha is a victim of what her pal Rosie O’Donnell calls a “bitch hunt.” The outcome only magnifies the sense that, in the court of public opinion, there has always been a hung jury when it comes to Martha Stewart. She is a Rorschach test: people have always seen in her what they want to see, whether it’s the domestic goddess who transformed mundane housework into an artistic pursuit or the prickly perfectionist who makes us feel inadequate if we can’t whip up a peach flan while regrouting the kitchen backsplash....

The 20-year-old has emerged as one of the most sought-after talents in South America after building on a breakthrough season in 2016-17 with nine goals in 11 appearances this term. His exploits have attracted attention from across Europe, with leading sides having expressed an interest in acquiring his potential. La Liga giants Real had hoped that their global standing would fire them to the front of the queue, but star-studded ranks have actually worked against them as Martinez has decided to seek more regular football in Italy....

“I was searching for an ICU bed for one of our patients, and every single facility is full. They are at full capacity. They have no ICU beds left,” Dr. Melisa Lai-Becker, the medical director for the emergency department at Cambridge Health Alliance’s Everett Hospital, told WGBH on Monday. “There is no bed capacity right now in the UMass system,” Dr. Richard Ellison, who works at the UMass Memorial Medical Center in Worcester, added....

Some people turn to massage therapy to ease the pain. But before you try it, here’s what you need to know: The Research on Massage for Back Pain: Can It Help? There is evidence supporting the use of massage therapy for pain relief, particularly in the short-term. In a review study published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, for instance, scientists analyzed 25 previously published studies on the use of massage for low back pain and found that massage was better at reducing sub-acute and chronic back pain (but not acute back pain) and improving function in the short-term, compared to an inactive treatment....
