In a midnight call from Washington, Clark was told he’d be relieved of his command at NATO next April, a few months earlier than he’d anticipated. The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Hugh Shelton, presented the decision as a simple matter of giving the post to another deserving officer. Clark, who got the call in the middle of a quick trip to the Baltic republics, was caught off balance....

Clearly not concerned with Utah’s nightlife, the Warriors forward put together a few noteworthy clips en route to a victory over the Jazz. He cursed out a mascot! Then, he got into it with a fan. He hit a dagger 2-pointer to help seal the deal and give the Warriors the 3-0 series lead. And he mimicked Michael Jordan after nailing it. To cap it off, he got into it with the Jazz’ Rudy Gobert, earning a flagrant foul in the process....

“At this point, you do,” forward Draymond Green said (via CSN Bay Area). “Because all you’re doing now is thinking about one game, which you have to do anyway.” MORE: Scout dissects NBA rookie class | PHOTOS: Golden State’s victory parade As the defending NBA champions built their season-opening streak, the team — led by high-scoring Stephen Curry — stayed true to a “one game at a time” mantra.

After the buff to its headshot multiplier, the Volk’s ability to shred opponents on smaller maps has left players in awe. This includes renowned content creators like WhosImmortal and FaZe Booya, who praised the assault rifle for its immense potential. The Call of Duty: Warzone meta is constantly changing, with the developers buffing weapons to shift the spotlight from overpowered guns. Regardless, it’s now time for the Volk to shine, and the gun is currently one of the best sniper support weapons to carry in Warzone....

The Companion App for Warzone was recently released, and it’s sparking some outrage as players have figured out how to exploit it in order to get past SBMM in some form. When someone joins a Warzone lobby, they can see all of the stats of the players in the given lobby right away. This also means that players can use those stats to see what the average K/D for the lobby is....

It would not be impossible to add Zombies into Warzone as fans have seen two great applications in Black Ops 4 for that exact concept. While the AI zombies may do little more than simply stick to their zone in Black Ops 4’s Blackout, Warzone rumors suggest that players will be able to become zombies and hunt down players.

Obama visited the White House on Tuesday to announce new changes to the Affordable Care Act, also known as “Obamacare.” The Affordable Care Act, Obama’s signature legislation to expand private and public health insurance, had its 12th anniversary last month. Fox News’ Tucker Carlson reflected on Biden’s popularity on his show on Tuesday night and played clips from the event. Carlson also suggested that Biden was shunned during the event and Obama intentionally ignored him, calling the moment “sad....

During the post-match press conference, Nehra said, “When you are bowling at the death (overs), especially in this format, you have to back yourself. This is not the first time that me and Bumrah bowled at the death. However, it’s always difficult for two bowlers to bowl four overs in the end with a wet ball. (Even though) only 8 runs were needed in the last over, he still did the job....

Mayor Muriel Bowser, a Democrat, issued the order Wednesday morning, extending her previous public health emergency order through mid-May. The decision specifically requires masks to be worn by hotel workers, guests and visitors, as well as by those using taxis, ride-share vehicles or other private transportation. Customers of food sellers and restaurant workers are also required to wear the masks. Additionally, the order strongly urges anyone using public transportation to follow suit....

The U.S. Defense Department, in its annual report to Congress on China’s military power on March 3, cast the news in the darkest of ways. The Pentagon painted a portrait of a secretive society seeking to become a superpower by the “acquisition of advanced foreign weapons,” “high rates of investment in defense, science and technology,” “improved nuclear and missile technologies” and rapid “military transformation”—Pentagon speak for the adoption of U....

During the 15 years he was allegedly working for the Kremlin, Hanssen was a devout member of Opus Dei, a superorthodox and deeply anti-Communist order. It may be years, if ever, before Hanssen’s soul and psyche reveal the true nature of his perfidy. In the meantime, his case has put a spotlight on Opus Dei and the role played by conservative Catholics in Washington. Unlike Pat Robertsen, Jerry Falwell and the evangelical religious right, Washington’s conservative Catholics are reticent and low-key....

The Three Percenters—described by the Anti-Defamation League as a “wing of the militia movement” and an “anti-government extremist” group—have led a crusade in Washington against Initiative 1639, a ballot measure voters approved last year which curtailed access to semi-automatic rifles. At a recent town hall in Thurston County, first reported by The Seattle Times, members of the group gathered to strategize about holding Attorney General Bob Ferguson accountable for the new rules, which he endorsed in an unusual move for an office with authorship power over such initiatives....

“You attacked us as racists,” the coalition’s director Don Grundmann said at a Modest City Council meeting. “You pulled the race card to justify attacks against us in that park,” Grundmann said to council member Kristi Ah You, who opposed the event. “We haven’t done anything. We’re a totally peaceful racist group.” Ah You did a face palm and she and some audience members laughed so loudly that Grundmann, who had a microphone, could not be heard correcting his mistake about his group....

The Red Sox rookie looked more like Spider-Man on Monday at Tropicana Field when he scaled the left-field wall and robbed the Rays’ Steven Souza Jr. of a homer in the eighth inning. MORE: Video of other cool MLB catches Although, if we’re being honest, we have to give Benintendi’s feat an 8 out of 10 for degree of difficulty. The left-field wall at the Trop is just 315 feet away and can’t be more than 6 feet high in that section....

The DC movies have been tonally inconsistent at best and utterly contradictory at worst. Some films, like Joker, are explicitly non-canon while others, like the recent Zack Snyder’s Justice League, rest uneasily with the DCEU’s timeline. Major actors have already left the DCEU, regardless of stories not being written to prepare for their absence. Ben Affleck won’t be getting the same emotional send-off Chris Evans received when he gave up Captain America’s shield....
