Paul took to Twitter Wednesday to extend an invitation to Trump to attend the trial, which was posted alongside a photo of a guest pass to the Senate gallery. “I heard @realDonaldTrump would like to attend the impeachment trial,” Paul tweeted. “Mr. President, would love to have you as my guest during this partisan charade.” Trump retweeted Paul’s invitation. He also retweeted and commented approval of another tweet from the senator saying that Rep....

Cotton railed against Chinese students coming to colleges in the United States to receive an education during an interview on Fox News’ Sunday Morning Futures program with Maria Bartiromo, arguing that they ultimately return to China and “compete for our jobs” and steal innovative U.S. ideas. He said Chinese students shouldn’t be allowed to study sciences in American colleges and universities as punishment, and that China’s coronavirus numbers are potentially “40 times” greater than their estimates....

Susan Collins (R-ME) and nine of her GOP colleagues from the upper chamber wrote a letter to Biden on Sunday in regard to a proposal they feel could achieve bipartisan support in Congress. After receiving this message, which also contained a request to meet, Biden spoke with Collins, inviting her and the other signatories to the White House. “We appreciate the President’s quick response to our letter, and we are pleased to accept his invitation to the White House tomorrow afternoon to discuss the path forward for the sixth bipartisan Covid-19 relief package,” a joint statement from the senators said....

Earlier this month, DeWine, a Republican, announced the creation of the Vax-a-Million lottery, a free $5 million state lottery open only to residents who have received a COVID-19 vaccine. Beginning May 26, the program is set to award $1 million each week to adult Ohio residents who have received at least one dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna or Johnson & Johnson coronavirus vaccine. A separate program is set up for vaccinated teenagers under the age of 18, who will receive a full ride scholarship to any Ohio college or university....

Gopi, who won the Asian Marathon title in China in Novermber last year, is expected to face tough challenge from Olympian Nitendra Singh Rawat and Kheta Ram in the mens category. Monica Athare and Jyoti Gawate are among the top title contenders in the womens category. All the four races will be flagged off by face of the event and cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, with the full marathon scheduled to start at 4....

For some, the plan is to become a better shooter. Other players, it might be working on passing. Jazz forward Gordon Hayward had a short mission statement. “I wanted to be the man,” Hayward said. NBA DRAFT: Who goes No. 1 in SN’s latest prospect rankings? In the league, there’s a big difference between being “a guy” and “the guy.” It’s not often a player who averaged fewer than 20 points a night in high school and college becomes a big scorer in the NBA....

Maybe it was a good thing Oregon and Heisman favorite quarterback Marcus Mariota were off last week. With Mariota implanted at No. 1 again this week, the pecking order behind him has flipped and flopped. Mississippi State’s Dak Prescott threw three picks in a loss to Alabama and Wisconsin’s Melvin Gordon looked five steps faster and quicker than the Nebraska defense in piling up a record number of yards....

Fans already have seen Gotham Knights running in two player co-op, but the team has also confirmed that similar to the older Batman Arkham games, fans can play through the game entirely solo as one character as well. Questions remained around the single player experience however as many games these days claim to be or support solo players, but continue to require that players be connected to the internet in order to play at all....

Now this is video is in no way meant to imply that the impact engine is anything short of impressive — our hands-on time with FIFA 12 showed one of the best sports experiences to date — it’s just sometimes entertaining to look at a strict and structured physics engine gone awry. What results is a collection of everything from players tripping over each other to goalies lifting charging strikers some 7 or 8 feet in the air....

And so, when someone attempts to capitalize on that nostalgia, and deliver one of the most comprehensive collections from video gaming’s earlier days, we have to take note. This person in question, who goes by the name Byuu on Reddit, is offering his entire Super Nintendo collection on eBay for $24,999. While some game collections are about the rares and the ultra rares, Byuu’s is about sheer volume as he claims to have every Super Nintendo game released in the U....

While some games attempt to increase immersion by taking a minimalist approach to user interface design, Persona 5 leans hard in the opposite direction and makes sure players know that they are living in a Persona world with giant, stylized dialogue captions and response choices. The unique style works incredibly well in the bombastic world that the franchise exists in, but it’s always strange to see that aesthetic applied to other examples of media....

At £99.99, it’s the lowest price we can see at the moment, outdoing even Fitbit’s own Valentine’s Day Sale, where the same tracker costs £109.99. The waterproof Charge 4, which launched last April, is about as feature-packed as you can get without upgrading to a fully-fledged smartwatch. The Charge 4 comes with a built-in GPS, a feature that’s usually reserved for Fitbit’s more expensive devices, and last July Fitbit further upgraded the Charge 4’s firmware with a new Dynamic GPS feature....

Posting to the popular Reddit forum r/AmITheA**hole, u/lilacswans, a 23-year-old grad student, asked if she was wrong “for quietly packing my stuff and leaving my family’s house without telling anyone after my dad threatened to kick me out?” Her post had over 10,000 upvotes and 1,200 comments. In the post, she explains that in addition to going to grad school, she also has a part-time job and an internship. She graduates in June, and has been actively applying to jobs....

That first trailer for Gran Turismo 7 likely stands out strongly in fans’ minds. In a trailer, we see a beautiful Porsche 917 with light dynamically reflected off its body. The sides of the trailer rise with mirrored reflections showing the Porsche 917 from multiple angles. It’s a gorgeous example of what ray tracing can add to a game, particularly for racing simulation titles like Gran Turismo 7 where vehicle fidelity is a priority to players....

Los Blancos already have an advantage in the title race, as they are a point ahead of arch-rivals Barcelona with a game in hand. With just a couple of games to follow after the encounter against Granada, Madrid will believe that they can all but guarantee a title triumph if they’re able to pick up a victory against Diego Martinez’s side. Eight victories on the bounce have helped Zinedine Zidane’s side launch an immaculate title challenge....

In the original Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Old Reece is a minor character who some fans consider to be a reference to Morgan Freeman given the design of his character model in the first game. One thing that also makes this character intiguing is that he is one of few unique models that can be met outside of a mission, as most unique characters are only found in relation to the game’s narrative....

As seen in the video from NoughtPointFourLIVE below, the YouTuber begins the Grand Theft Auto 5 challenge by starting out at Paleto Bay on the tracks and explaining how the tanks will be set up against the train. In order to set the situation up, the modder manually places 100 individual tanks in a straight row all the way through two separate tunnels and across a bridge as a test to determine whether or not they can derail the train by simply being stationary....

Once they are in the helicopter, the player will be required to return to his starting location and start hovering the helicopter over any spotted building to send across the duffel bag. The delivering noise can get too loud so it is advisable that the volume is turned down to ensure no one is disturbed or worse, shocked by the grilling sound. Player should keep hovering the copter for as long as they can....

Rockstar Games’ latest addition to GTA Online is the Inch By Inch adversary mode which will be available from April 12. Not unlike GTA Online’s American Football-themed game mode, Running Back, Inch By Inch is also about making gains across a playing field in order to get to the ‘endzone’. Rockstar explains that Inch By Inch players must compete for possession of a ‘Package’ before “clawing” their way through a “hail of bullets” in order to reach the endzone....

Reddit user No-Bee-3608 recently posted a clip from Grand Theft Auto Online in which they repeatedly aim at the sky with their sniper rifle. Although it’s somewhat visible without the zoom, No-Bee-3608 was able to illustrate with their sniper rifle that there’s a large blue circle in the GTA Online sky. The Grand Theft Auto Online player was specifically aiming their sniper rifle between several power lines near the overpass outside of Los Santos Bag Co....
