The inaugural Concacaf W Gold Cup kicks off this week. The US is planning to use the tournament as a testing ground for the Paris OlympicsThe coming year will be a pivotal one for a beleaguered Team US. With last summer's biting disappointment at the World Cup still fresh, a team deep in transition has its sight set on redemption, and the Olympic Games in France (just five months off) are the chosen stage.Redemption starts now, with the inaugural Concacaf W Gold Cup. 23 players are gathered in California to play their first games of 2024, stocked with a litany of new names and under the care of an interim coach.

Hush-money trial will begin on 25 March, with federal case on allegations over 2020 election hinging on supreme court actionDonald Trump's legal calendar is coming into sharper relief after a New York judge affirmed last week that the ex-president's first criminal trial - on charges that he manipulated the 2016 election by concealing hush money payments to an adult film star - will proceed to trial in Manhattan next month.A federal case in Washington over the former president's alleged plot to overturn the 2020 election had been expected to go first. But when Trump filed appeals on grounds of presidential immunity last year, the presiding US district judge, Tanya Chutkan, was forced to put the case on hold. Continue reading...

When it arrives, the flood of money from new sources into basketball will not be a shock, but American business as usualBooming team valuations, feelgood social justice and anti-racism initiatives, and repudiation of anyone standing in the way of the league's expansion into markets across the globe: values, in both senses of the word, have been at the core of Adam Silver's 10-year tenure at the head of the NBA, and it's never been entirely clear whether those of the ethical variety matter more to the league's commissioner than numerical ones.On the one hand, Silver has won plaudits for setting up the NBA's social justice coalition, the group established in the wake of the George Floyd protests to advocate on behalf of the league for criminal justice reform and an end to racial inequality, and forging a path for professional basketball as a socially conscious sport amid the culture wars and toxicity of the Trump era. On the other, he's put distance between the NBA and franchise figures with outspoken views on foreign policy - none more so than Daryl Morey, the former general manager of the Houston Rockets who almost got the NBA kicked out of China after tweeting his support for Hong Kong's pro-democracy protesters in 2019 - and cultivated an institutional image of geopolitical neutrality to repair the league's post-Morey reputation in China. Liberal pieties and accommodations with illiberalism have mingled seamlessly in Silver's NBA. For every Donald Sterling, forced to sell the Los Angeles Clippers in 2014 after he was caught on tape being racist, there's an Enes Freedom, the former New York Knicks star who was pushed to the sport's fringes a few years ago for being a little too vocal in his support of China's Uyghur minority.

The new wave of Palestinian protesters are heirs to giants such as Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, CLR James and Rosa ParksHistory is often written by ordinary people dedicated to a cause in the pursuit of peace and justice. Israel's reign of terror over Palestine since the 7 October attack by Hamas has seen the rise to prominence of several such activists using social media to highlight the graphic truth of the horrific suffering there.Railing against the state propaganda machines, people such as Motaz Azaiza, Bisan Owda, Plestia Alaqad, Hind Khoudary and the veteran journalist Wael al-Dahdouh have brought shocking, heart-rending images straight to our phones. Pictures of weeping parents kneeling over the tiny, bloodied corpses of children have stirred up deep anger against Hamas, the Israeli government and its prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, and at the complicity of the US, UK and EU governments.

Moses Robinette was convicted in a civil war-era brawl - but Biden's predecessor gave him a reprieveJoe Biden's great-great-grandfather was charged with attempted murder after a civil war-era brawl - but pardoned of any wrongdoing by Abraham Lincoln, a newspaper said on Monday, reviving on the US holiday of Presidents' Day the often contentious issue of presidential powers to grant pardons.Citing documents from the US national archives, the historian David J Gerleman wrote in the Washington Post that Biden's paternal forebear Moses J Robinette was pardoned by Lincoln after Robinette got into a fight with a fellow Union army civilian employee, John J Alexander, in Virginia. Robinette drew a knife and sliced Alexander. Continue reading...
The ex-president is scrambling to come up with $450m after the judgment in his fraud trial as the next case loomsDonald Trump was already reeling from multiple legal setbacks when a New York judge last week handed the former president a staggering defeat in his civil fraud case, ordering him to pay roughly $450m to the state after finding him liable for conspiracy to manipulate his net worth.The decision by Justice Arthur Engoron capped a bad legal week for Trump, who had watched his lawyers attempt to get access to sealed filings in a classified documents case in Florida and then watched his lawyers lose their attempt to delay his first criminal trial in New York.

Ex-president links Russian opposition leader's death to his own political grievances after criticism from HaleyDonald Trump has offered a belated acknowledgement of the purportedly sudden death of Alexei Navalny, three days after the Russian opposition leader collapsed in one of Russia's penal colonies. But Trump failed to join with - or acknowledge - international outrage at Navalny's political nemesis, the Russian president, Vladimir Putin.The sudden death of Alexei Navalny has made me more and more aware of what is happening in our country," Trump posted on his Truth Social network. The former US president and presumptive Republican White House nominee added: It is a slow, steady progression, with CROOKED, Radical Left Politicians, Prosecutors, and Judges leading us down a path to destruction."

His awkwardness is on another level, and the beauty and professionalism of the actors doesn't helpLove" would be a strong word, but I like the Baftas, hard. I don't care especially who wins, I could take or leave the acceptance speeches except where they're phenomenal (Samantha Morton), but the photos - all those magnificent faces that only actors know how to make: the I'm so surprised to have won on this completely unsurprising occasion" face; the of course I don't mind not winning, the winner who won is, by happy chance, much more important to me than myself" face; the knowing side-eye, the straight-down-the-lens candour, the beaming sincerity. These are faces only the pros can perfect. If the rest of us tried any of them, we'd look like we just got caught shoplifting.And into this Bafta array, as its president, steps Prince William. This job was not really optional for him. The only time in the organisation's history that it hasn't been led by a member of the royal family is when it was David Attenborough, who is like royal-plus. William, grinning at rising stars Phoebe Dynevor, Ayo Edebiri, Sophie Wilde and Mia McKenna-Bruce, hits the summit of his endearing awkwardness. In the great schism of the princes, in which all right-thinking Britons were supposed to pick a side, everyone who chose the elder and who was not motivated by fervour against the wokerati, misogynoir or keenly felt anti-Americanism was really responding to Prince William's self-consciousness.Do you have an opinion on the issues raised in this article?

The Russian president believes that now is the time to prepare for his ultimate goal: taking Ukraine. He cannot afford even limited oppositionIt is difficult not to equate the untimely death of Alexei Navalny with the death of Russian opposition. With just a few weeks before the sham election scripted to result in Vladimir Putin's appointment for a fifth term as Russia's president, Navalny's death foreshadows a grim post-election future for Russia, Ukraine and the world.Within Russia, Navalny will be irreplaceable in his ability to connect, to charm and to mobilise. With most of his allies now in exile, and the Kremlin's stranglehold on the digital public square tighter than ever, the very avenues Navalny navigated to reach the hearts and minds of young people are fast disappearing. It is hard to see where a successor would emerge from. And so the Russian opposition has no leader, no focal point to unite behind, no face to represent it, no voice to speak on its behalf.Olga Chyzh researches political violence and repressive regimes.

With City third in the Premier League table and a tricky run of games ahead, Pep Guardiola must find solutions to a series of nagging questionsThe assumption had been that Manchester City would beat Chelsea on Saturday and follow that up with victory over Brentford on Tuesday to move top of the Premier League table. They had won 11 in a row and there seemed no reason to think that would not become 13 and more; that's just what City do at this time of year.The only hope for their challengers seemed a tough run of games in March, when City face Manchester United, Liverpool, Brighton, Arsenal and Aston Villa in successive league games; perhaps that run was a hurdle that could hinder City's charge for a fifth Premier League title in six years. The question was how far ahead they would be by then. Now, though, so long as Liverpool beat Luton at home next week, City will not start that vital run of games with a lead. Continue reading...

NHS midwifery is in crisis and unmedicated birth in vogue, but doing it at home without medical support is simply dangerousCould you do a poo like this?" There's a sentence I will never forget. I was in my second trimester and doing a hypnobirthing course. The question is supposed to be a metaphor for childbirth: being surrounded by doctors with clipboards would apparently make you too tense to poo, or give birth. To which my rejoinder was, Well, surely it depends how much you need to go."Other than National Childbirth Trust (NCT) classes - in which the instructor told us that the ideal birth is at home, without pain relief (not their official line, they say) - this was my first glimpse of the anti-medical approach to childbirth. I thought about it again when I read about the concerning rise of freebirthing" - when a woman gives birth at home without assistance from a doctor or midwife - and the fact that the Royal College of Midwives has stated that midwives are understandably concerned about women giving birth at home without assistance, as it brings with it increased risks to both the mother and baby".

I was looking forward to a magnificently white winter, with school closures and an otherworldly hush. The weather had other ideasI was excited to experience a Boston winter - being in snow country was a genuine attraction of our trip here - and last week looked set to deliver. The headlines were threatening me with a good time (predicted to be heaviest snowfall in two years" and pre-emptive school closures ran in ticker tape across the TV screen). Cars started sporting snowplough attachments, and the yoga teacher ended class not with namaste but with an ominous: Good luck with the storm."My husband and I were giddy as toddlers. Would there be six inches of snow? Twelve? When I wake up at 4am," my husband said gleefully, studying his weather app, it should already be white." At the shop he asked, in all seriousness, if we should buy a sledge before they all sell out".Emma Beddington is a Guardian columnist Continue reading...
He may have made a good president, but he miscalculated. The Russia in which that could ever have happened no longer existsThe candle that cast at least a little light in Vladimir Putin's darkness has been snuffed out. The official report claims Alexei Navalny died". Between he died" and he has been murdered", there is a difference the size of Russia. My country no longer exists.A Russia that so casually destroys its finest is not a country you can live in. In a land you can live in there is no space for this kind of criminal regime.

For so long the reef did not exist for professional female competitors but moving there has proved the tide is turningAcross the boundless world of surfing, there is no beach break as notorious as Banzai Pipeline on the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii, the ultimate proving ground for surfers. Among many of its seductions, Pipeline promotes the purest brand of surfing: the art of barrelling.The waves are so large that, as they begin to crash down on to the ocean, a tunnel often forms inside them. Surfers spend years trying to perfect the technique of barrelling; entering those tunnels, picking the correct line once inside and hurtling at breakneck speed to the exit before the wave crashes on them.
