Jon Rahm was rolling in dominant fashion to his second consecutive Memorial Tournament win after an unbelievable 64 on Saturday at Muirfield Village. Things took a devastating turn post-round, however, as he was alerted by the PGA Tour that he tested positive for COVID-19 and would be forced to withdraw from the tournament after three rounds. Rahm was informed by the PGA Tour on Monday that he was in contact tracing protocol as he was in close proximity to someone who tested positive for COVID-19. Rahm tested negative throughout the week but a positive test popped up on Saturday while

Absurd. He's also forced to quarantine for 10 days although has no symptoms. Will lose over $1 million in prize money assuming he would have won.

Crazy. This stuff is rarely communicable outdoors. Everyone that might get it has most likely already been exposed to him

This is totally bogus. He tore up that course yesterday, it was a joy to watch. Asymptomatic people are NOT contagious, and why did they test him twice in one day??

I wonder how much the people who evaluated that second test were paid by "interested parties"? Follow the money...

Sounds to me like someone among the officials was paid off and tests rigged. Also, Announcing it publicly, like this... Stinks. It's like the Democrats setting up one of their "perp walks" where they have one of their political opponents arrested for jay-walking by a swat team, with cameras rolling.

Vice President Kamala Harris made a surprise appearance at the Pride event in Washington on Saturday but it was one of her protectors who drew the attention of many Twitter users. Any time a president or vice president mingles with the public becomes a challenge for those charged with guarding them – simply because the situation is less under security’s control. Much of the Twitter attention was directed at a Secret Service agent near the vice president, a tall man in sunglasses who was seen behind Harris in photos and videos as she traversed the parade area.

The attorneys general of 22 states on Friday urged the U.S. Supreme Court not to end the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's pandemic-related residential eviction moratorium that has been challenged by landlord groups. The landlords asked the Supreme Court last week to issue an order stopping the national ban on evictions, which was first implemented last September and is due to expire on June 30. CDC Director Rochelle Walensky declined to say this week if the agency will again extend the moratorium, saying discussions are ongoing. Led by the Alabama Association of Realtors, the landlord groups argued that the

A magazine editor explained on "Fox & Friends" Wednesday why he's reconsidering whether to hire Ivy league graduates. "I would just say that 10 years ago I would have seen that as a big positive on their resume and now I see it as a negative that they have to overcome in the interview because obviously there is going to be great kids all over in higher [education]at different schools," said the editor of "First Things" magazine Rusty Reno. Reno said back then, the negative tendencies of Ivy League graduates was that they had a "sense of entitlement" and "arrogance."

Lordstown Motors, the startup electric truck maker, warned Tuesday it is close to running out of cash and may be forced out of business in the next year.

For 53 years, Lordstown, Ohio, was home to a massive General Motors plant, which GM closed in 2019. (Snip) But Tuesday the startup said it no longer has enough money to start commercial production.

Minneapolis city crews returned to George Floyd Square early Tuesday to remove debris and makeshift barriers for the second time in an attempt to open the intersection of 38th Street and Chicago Avenue S to traffic. Crews moved in with front-end loaders and brooms just before 5 a.m. to move objects out of the way. (Snip) But as soon as workers were finished, protesters began parking cars and piling pallets in the streets again. George Floyd Square became a primary gathering place for grief and remembrance almost immediately after the 46-year-old man's death under ex-Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin's knee.

Bush in announcing his candidacy for Texas attorney general. Nearly 75 million Americans agreed, but his uncle, George W. Bush, was not among them.

New York took a step closer toward reparations for slavery on Wednesday. The state Assembly passed a bill, sponsored by Assemblyman Charles Barron, that would set up a commission to study slavery and its impact on Black New Yorkers. It would have the commission determine the amount of reparations and who should get them. “Some people say, ‘well I didn’t oppress you, my European ancestors came at the turn of the century. Why should I have to pay?’ I don’t care if you came here last night,” Barron said. “You benefited from the ill-gotten gains.”(Snip) Five political appointees would be on the commission

At the G-7 in London, the gathering of all the world's top power players, Joe found himself ... isolated, to put it politely. [video] Nobody wanted to talk to him. Notice that it's Joe who tries to glom onto some minor foreign leader at the end of video clip in a desperate bid to not be alone for the cameras. Nobody seeks him out. It's downright sad.
