HUNTER BIDEN’S GUN TRIAL



Hunter, Joe Biden's son, is standing trial today on federal charges related to
the illegal possession of a firearm. The charges allege that he lied about his
drug use when purchasing a pistol in 2018. Newsweek says the case is more
complicated than Hunter’s defense is pretending.

While CNN reports setbacks for Hunter. The judge blocked key evidence and
witnesses before trial.

Fox News: This whole thing is pretty sordid. The trial will have to get very
personal, with past relationships and drug use.

WaPo reveals a different perspective: This all started as a family spat. And now
those family members are testifying against one another. Not good for Biden’s
reelection.

NYT: Stop the madness Hunter, and take a deal. Hunter Biden should quickly
accept a plea deal to avoid a tough trial and not affect his dad.

Axios agrees that the trial could hurt Joe. Hunter’s mounting legal woes could
overshadow Joe's re-election.


WNBA SELF-SABOTAGE?



Daily Mail: Charles Barkley thinks WNBA players are being “petty” towards
Caitlin Clark. It’s hurting the league's growth.

@jackmacbarstool on TikTok doesn't get it -- the other players hate her so much!
She didn't do anything to deserve this.

Landscape doesn't think players are being petty. Commentators are falling victim
to stereotypes that Black women are jealous.

The Guardian agrees: This is part of the toxic fandom surrounding Clark. The
WNBA is a tough league, she's gotta adjust to the physicality!

Time: Regardless, the WNBA is definitely growing. They've got record viewership
and are making plans to expand.
