Boxing heavyweight legend George Forman has died aged 76, according to his family. Foreman, known as Big George in the ring, competed for decades starting in the 1960s, winning gold at the Olympics and numerous title belts - including the world heavyweight title twice. His first professional loss came to another icon: Muhammad Ali in an iconic 1974 fight. "Our hearts are broken," his family said in a statement posted on Instagram. "A devout preacher, a devoted husband, a loving father, and a proud grand and great grandfather, he lived a life marked by unwavering faith, humility, and purpose."

A Dothan man was arrested again on Monday just two months after former President Joe Biden commuted his sentence. Dothan Police charged Willie Frank Peterson on Monday with possessing cocaine, hydrocodone, marijuana, and two counts of illegally possessing firearms, according to WTVY. Biden commuted Peterson's prior sentence and those of many other criminals in his final days in office. According to WTVY, court records show Peterson was sentenced to 75 months in August 2023. Biden commuted his sentence on January 17, and he was released from prison the following week. A commutation isn't a full pardon but rather a lesser penalty substituted for the punishment given after a conviction. According to the DOJ, Al Sharpton's half-brother Kenneth Glasgow's sentence also included a charge of conspiring with Peterson to possess cocaine with intent to distribute.

Even Will Rogers might be hard pressed to come up with an appropriately harsh jibe about the current state of the Democrats. "I am not a member of any organized political party," the 20th-century humorist famously said. "I am a Democrat." The Democrats shouldn't be shocked that after insisting that Joe Biden was hale and hearty and fit to serve as commander-in-chief until January, 2029, the public has a dim view of their party. The Democrats attempted to perpetrate one of the worst frauds on the American public in recent history, and then followed it up with another lie " that Biden's overmatched emergency replacement, Kamala Harris, was joyful and impressive. Now, the problem isn't a lack of organization per se, but the hangover of their dogged, dishonest support for a comprehensively failed presidency, joined to an irrational commitment to outlandish positions on cultural issues.
