The first is Marshall, which could roll through Conference USA and be 13-0 by the time the College Football Playoff committee meets for the last time – and still not be selected as a semifinalist.

Trump attacked the legislation in a video message uploaded to social media on Tuesday evening, calling out funding for foreign countries and asking Congress to raise the $600 stimulus checks for most Americans to $2,000.

Napolitano said during an appearance on Fox & Friends on Tuesday morning that the possibility of Pelosi somehow ending up in the White House due to impeachment proceedings is “so remote” it’s not even worth talking about.
