A Republican proposal to amend the Constitution to prevent expanding the number of justices on the Supreme Court failed on the House floor.
Like all constitutional amendments, the measure needed a two-thirds majority of the House to pass, which it did not get: The vote was along party lines at 212-206. Democrats have never supported such an amendment, so it will be easy fodder for Republicans to accuse Democrats of looking to "pack the court" with favorable liberal justices.
Rep. Brad Knott (R-N.C.), a member of the Judiciary Committee, said he wasn't surprised the vote was along party lines, even though Democrats, in his view, knew there would be "political risk" to voting no.
"Democrats are very clear. They want to pack the court," Knott said. "We want to maintain the normalcy and stick with the process that we've done for a long time."
The Republican campaign arm wasted no time spinning the vote into midterm messaging. Mike Marinella, a spokesperson for the National Republican Congressional Committee, which helps support and elect Republican candidates, wrote in a statement released minutes after the vote that Democrats voted against the amendment "so they can follow through on a radical socialist agenda."

Sep. 2—BEMIDJI — When looking at the singles side of the Bemidji High School tennis courts, the home fans would be forgiven if they thought Wednesday's match against Staples-Motley took place in 2025.
For much of this season, the Lumberjacks' singles lineup has carried over from last fall. Liz Peterson occupies the top spot, while Lilly Caron and Bailey Rupp typically play Nos. 2 and 3 singles, save for their occasional doubles appearances. Natalie ****** berg rounds out the group at No. 4 singles, just as she did on Wednesday in the Jacks' 6-1 win over the Cardinals.
The real differences so far in the young 2026 season have been on the doubles side of the court. With the departures of Megan Berg, Naomi Johnson and Abby Myhrer, almost every doubles pair had to be retooled for 2026.
Junior Kelli Carlson has been moved up to No. 2, paired with eighth-grader Piper Whiting. Freshmen Norah Friese and Emma Carlson are gaining experience at the No. 3 spot.
Then there are seniors Zoe McNallan and Millie Knott, who have known each other even before they became partners on the tennis court.

Claire Foy attended the premiere of her upcoming film, Ink, which opens the 2026 Venice Film Festival this evening.

After wearing Bottega Veneta for both her arrival and this morning's photocall, we had a feeling Claire would stay with the house for the premiere. And she did, wearing a red Bottega Veneta gown with Swarovski jewellery.
Let's start with the positives. I love the colour. Red was a bold choice for the opening night of the festival, and I also like the idea behind the knotted detail at the waist, which should have defined the silhouette. But the execution really lets this down.
Dare I say, it looks a little sloppy. This would have worked better had the bodice been more fitted through the waist, as the excess fabric bunching above the knot makes the dress look like two separate pieces.

The White Sox disappointed in the first game of this four-game series in Houston, falling 6-3 to the Astros.
Things were calm until the third inning, when Anthony Kay saw a little base path trouble after a throwing error and a walk put two runners on. Yordan Alvarez sent Nick Allen in to score with a ground out, but a fly out straight to Sam Antonacci ended any further damage.
The White Sox knotted the score 1-1 right away, as Colson Montgomery doubled in the top of the fourth with one out, Chase Meidroth singlingand him home. Tristan Peters was plunked, and in a pickoff attempt, the ball got away, sending Meidroth to third. Antonacci picked up a walk (without being hit!) to load the bases with two outs. Houston starter Peter Lambert's command in the fourth drastically dropped, as he walked Munetaka Murakami to force in the lead run. Miguel Vargas left the bases loaded with a liner to second, but the Good Guys were up, 2-1.
Braden Montgomery got caught in-between on a Cam Smith liner to right, and as has happened too frequently that ball skipped past him for a triple. Kay was frazzled by the three-bagger, so much so that Nelson Velázquez crushed a home deep and high to left, making it 3-2, Astros.
It got worse from there, as the White Sox mustered no offense while Houston added on. In the fifth, three singles loaded the bases, with just one out. Instead of a pitch that would prompt a ground-ball double play to end the inning and keep the score tight, Kay walked in a run. Kay bounced back with a K, but with two outs was pulled in favor of Trevor Richards, who surrendered a double to Smith double and stretching the deficit to 6-2.

The Bundesliga is back!
And Bayern Munich is as Bayern Munich as ever. Picking up right where they left off last season, the Bavarians got rolling in a 5-1 demolition of VfB Stuttgart — one of the league's top contenders and another major supplier of German men's national team talent.
The visiting Swabians held Bayern in check for a good while, and even knotted it up after the break to keep the drama going. But Bayern responded swiftly to the leveler and poured it on from there. By the hour mark, it was 3-1 and the German champions were in cruise control, almost toying with their prey.
Just how Bayern drew it up.
"Stuttgart is a good team, they have good players and a strong attack," Bayern keeper Manuel Neuer said after the match in comments captured via iMiaSanMia. "But from the start, we were determined to give everything to have a perfect start to the season. I think we showed that today."

The Boston Red Sox (72-59) and the Miami Marlins (67-65) continue their respective postseason pushes tonight when they take the field at loanDepot Park in Miami. The Red Sox won the series opener last night, 4-2, to stay within six games of first place Tampa Bay in the AL East and further strengthen their hold on the second Wild Card spot in the American League. Miami is third in the NL East at 67-65 but they remain 9.5 games behind the Braves in the division race and four back of the final Wild Card spot in the National League.
Last night's game remained tight throughout primarily because Boston managed just a single hit in 14 at bats with runners in scoring position. Miami struck first in the second inning when Otto Lopez drove home Jakob Marsee with a sacrifice fly, giving the Marlins a 1-0 lead. Boston answered in the fifth when Jarren Duran doubled and later scored on Mickey Gasper's RBI double to tie the game. The Marlins regained the lead in the seventh on Xavier Edwards' RBI single, but once again, Boston answered. Wilyer Abreu doubled in the eighth and eventually scored on a wild pitch, knotting the game at 2-2. The game was decided in the ninth. Anthony Seigler, who entered the game with only 12 RBIs on the season, delivered the biggest hit of the night, lining a go-ahead RBI triple to right field. Nick Sogard followed with an RBI single to provide an insurance run and give Boston a 4-2 advantage. Aroldis Chapman closed the door for his 30th save of the campaign. The Sox have now won four in a row.
Rookie Payton Tolle (8-6, 3.08 ERA) gets the ball today for the Sox. The southpaw takes the mound after six days of rest. In four August starts, Tolle has allowed six earned runs (25 innings pitched). Boston lost against the Diamondbacks in his last start (5 IP, 3ER) after wining in his seven previous starts. Tyler Phillips (3-6, 3.67 ERA) will be on the ******* p for Miami. The righthander gave up one run in two innings in Philadelphia last Tuesday after giving up four in 5.1 innings in his previous outing. The Marlins have lost his last three starts.
Lets dive further into today's game and find a sweat or two.
We've got all the info and ******* ysis you need to know ahead of the game, including the latest info on the how to catch first pitch, odds, recent team performance, player stats, and of course, our predictions, picks & best bets for the game from our modeling tools and staff of experts.

It wasn't a good day at Great American Ball Park, but the Cincinnati Reds at least salvaged the night.
After losing the matinee in their Aug. 17 day-night doubleheader, the Reds walked off the St. Louis Cardinals with a 6-5 win in 10 innings at Great American Ball Park.
The Reds trailed 4-1 in the sixth inning and 5-4 in the ninth inning. They knotted the game in both frames with outfielder Dane Myers hitting a pinch-hit homer in the ninth to tie the game at five and force extra innings.
Reds closer Emilio Pagán worked through traffic in the 10th inning to set Cincinnati up for the possibility of a walk-off win, and Elly De La Cruz delivered with a hot shot into left field that scored Tyler Stephenson from first base.
The walk-off hit was the first of De La Cruz's career.

Matt Olson has hit quite a few home runs this season.
But few have been as momentous as the three-run shot he crushed in the bottom of the seventh in the Braves' 5-3 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks Sunday afternoon to help Atlanta salvage one game from the weekend set.
The homer was Olson's 36th of the season, moving him into a tie for second in the majors with Yordan Alvarez, just one behind Kyle Schwarber's 37. It was also his sixth homer this month and his 15th since the start of July.
With the game knotted at 2 in the seventh, Olson smashed a 3-0 sinker 437 feet to straightaway center. This was particularly important because it seemed the Braves could come up empty in the inning which began with an Austin Riley double and a Jim Jarvis sacrifice bunt after Ronald Acuña Jr. struck out ahead of Olson for out #2 .
Dylan Lee worked a 1-2-3 eighth with two strikeouts. Raisel Iglesias allowed the first two batters of the ninth to reach but limited the damage, allowing just one run to secure his 25th save and prevent the Braves' first three-game losing streak of the second half of the season.

India batter Jemimah Rodrigues has been ruled out of the ongoing Hundred after suffering a hamstring injury while playing for Southern Brave, putting her participation in the upcoming Women's T20 Asia Cup in doubt.

Southern Brave confirmed on Saturday that Rodrigues will miss the rest of the tournament, with Australian all-rounder Charlie Knott brought in as her replacement.

"We can confirm that due to an injury suffered by Jemimah Rodrigues, we've signed Charli Knott as our injury replacement for the remainder of The Hundred. Wishing you a speedy recovery, Jemi," Southern Brave posted on X.

Rodrigues, 25, scored 143 runs in six innings for Southern Brave, averaging 35.75 at a strike rate of 131.19. Her highest score was 42 not out.

Her absence comes with Southern Brave still having two matches left as they chase a place in the final by finishing top of the table. They will face Manchester Super Giants and Trent Rockets in their remaining games.

For India, the bigger concern is Rodrigues' availability for the Women's T20 Asia Cup, which begins on August 28. India will start their campaign against Thailand in Dubai on August 30.

Rodrigues has just under three weeks to recover from the injury before India's opening match. The extent of her hamstring injury is yet to be ascertained, and her withdrawal from the Hundred could be a precaution to protect her fitness and avoid further damage.

Rodrigues has scored 143 runs in six innings in this year's Hundred, with her highest score of 42 not out coming as part of her campaign for Southern Brave.

The ball sat on the penalty spot in Kansas City and Riyad Mahrez did what he has done since he was a slight teenager ***** ody in Paris wanted. He paused. He looked up. Then he passed it into the corner with the casual disdain of a man who had settled the question long before the goalkeeper moved. It was his second goal of the night against Austria, and it hauled Algeria back from a losing position in a 3-3 draw that carried the Desert Foxes into the World Cup knockout rounds.
For Mahrez, now 34, the moment ran deeper than a group-stage scoreline. Algeria had not played at a World Cup since he was a young winger still learning the international game. They missed 2018. They missed 2022. A generation of Algerian talent watched two tournaments pass from their living rooms while rivals took the stage. On Saturday, captaining a side that needed almost everything to fall its way, Mahrez made certain the wait ended with his own boot.
Mahrez grew up in Sarcelles, a northern suburb of Paris built on tower blocks and noise, the child of an Algerian father and a Moroccan mother. He was small and skinny, the kind of player academy scouts glance at once and forget. Clermont, Le Havre and the rest of France’s production line passed him by in his early teens. He kept playing on concrete and patchy grass, kept beating bigger boys, and waited for someone to look twice.
His father Ahmed died when Riyad was 15, a loss that still shapes how he talks about the game. Mahrez has said he plays for him in every match. The town has since named a football arena after its most famous son, with a plaque honouring his late father set into the ground. A boy once judged too frail to matter now has his name fixed above the gates of the place that raised him.
The football world caught up late. Le Havre gave him a chance in France’s second tier. Leicester City took him in 2014 for a fee that now looks like a clerical error, and two years later he was the creative heartbeat of the most improbable league ***** le in English history. Manchester City and a procession of trophies followed. Through all of it, the international thread stayed knotted to Algeria, the country of his father rather than the country of his birth.

Make room in the WNBA record books for Marina Mabrey.
In a 125-97 win for the Toronto Tempo over the Los Angeles Sparks on Thursday night, Mabrey tied the single-game scoring record with 53 points to join A'ja Wilson and Liz Cambage as the only players in league history to score that many points in one contest.
Mabrey played 32 minutes, shooting 17-of-28 from the floor, 9-of-18 from 3-point land and 10-of-12 from the free throw line. Her nine made baskets from behind the arc also ties a WNBA single-game record, knotting her up with Chelsea Gray and Rhyne Howard.
She also had six rebounds and two ******* ists as the Tempo improved to 9-9 in their inaugural season.
"None of this happens without my teammates," Mabrey said. "They really found me. For a 3-point shooter, you need your teammates to set screens and deliver the pass, and that's what they did."

Here is a look at the notable attendees who joined Kristen Stewart and Marion Cotillard on the red carpet for the opening ceremony of the 2026 Nouvelles Vagues International Biarritz Film Festival in France.
For a festival taking place during a heatwave, the collective mood was remarkably autumnal. Black dominated the red carpet, knitwear appeared more than once, and Chanel's presence was unsurprisingly strong.
Isabelle Huppert wore a black Chanel Pre-Fall 2026 cashmere dress in her usual streamlined silhouette, accented with a leather sash knotted at the waist, a styling detail we've previously seen in red on Jessie Buckley. And yes, her oversized sunglasses continue to make appearances well beyond her Balenciaga and Gucci outings. At this point, they have become as much a signature as the black dresses themselves. Chanel Fine Jewelry completed her look.
Esmé Creed-Miles wore a Ferragamo Fall 2026 look, which has a slightly dishevelled and deconstructed feel that is echoed by the hair and beauty styling. Ferragamo gold mule wedges completed her look.
Whitney Peak wore a Chanel Pre-Fall 2026 black lurex dress, which is largely saved by the simplicity of the white T-shirt. And remarkably, this may be one of the few occasions where the two-tone shoes genuinely worked for me.

The White Sox waited until the last minute to tee off on Cleveland closer Cade Smith in the ninth inning once more, but could not convert a run with the bases loaded in the 10th, falling 4-3. As if to indicate dismay with leaving an attainable sweep on the table, the rain that initially delayed today’s contest almost three hours) started pouring. As a result, the two teams are again tied for first.
Both teams experienced traffic on the basepaths in the second, Erick Fedde with back-to-back walks, and Tanner Bibee with a hit-by-pitch and single. Both pitchers escaped their jams to leave it knotted at zero. The White Sox would again put two runners on in the third with singles from Sam Antonacci and Miguel Vargas, but the pair were left stranded when Andrew Benintendi hit into a fielder’s choice.
A single, an error, and a walk would load the bases for Cleveland in the top of the sixth, with no outs. Kahlil Watson singled on a line drive straight to Antonacci, whose throw to Kyle Teel in an attempt to cut down the second runner out at home short-hopped the catcher. That was all for Fedde, and surprisingly Brandon Eisert inherited two runners on and one out and was able to stun batters for back-to-back strikeouts, escaping the jam.
In the seventh, Teel got his first hit since coming back two days ago, and Colson Montgomery helped out with a double. With ducks on the pond a sac fly from Braden Montgomery sent Teel home, making it 2-1. Randal Grichuk came off the bench, but with that move, the Guardians went back to their bullpen to replace lefty reliever Erik Sabrowski. Grichuk launched a ball to center, but with a diving catch, Steven Kwan ended the rally.
Joe Rock came on to pitch in the Chicago eighth and struggled with his command. Petey Halpin started Rock’s outing with a single, and Kyle Manzardo walked. Rock was able to get a strikeout and a fly out, but walked Daniel Schneemann to load the bases and then walked in a run to keep the bases loaded for Kwan. Thankfully, Kwan has been struggling and left the bases loaded after going down swinging.

The 2026 Orioles have played plenty of dumb, bad baseball. But the 10th inning of this 7-6 loss to the Angels on Wednesday afternoon in Anaheim may take the **** le for the absolute worst moment of the entire season. It also completely changed the tone of the now-concluded west coast road trip, which saw the Orioles lose five of nine and go home on a supremely sour note.
Let’s get right into that 10th inning because that ended up being the whole ballgame.
The two teams were knotted at five runs apiece after regulation. The Orioles began the 10th with Blaze Alexander as the Manfred runner at second base. Taylor Ward opened the frame with a single to put runners on a corners. A Gunnar Henderson swinging bunt sent Alexander towards home, but he would be tagged out, a call which was upheld after review. After Leody Taveras flew out for the second out of the inning it seemed like the Birds might not score at all. But Pete Alonso came through with a clutch single to score the one crucial run and give the bullpen a lead to work with in the bottom of the inning.
Keegan Akin was called on for the 10th in a game that saw the Orioles empty their bullpen. The only reliever that did not pitch in this loss was Albert Suárez. And while Akin would carry some blame for the loss, it wasn’t his pitching that was at fault.
Akin struck out Zach Neto to open the frame, and then got a fly out of Vaughn Grissom for the second out. Things were going well! All that stood between the Orioles and a winning road trip was Nolan Schanuel.

Tessa Thompson dug into Prada's early-2000s archive on Saturday, arriving outside the James Earl Jones Theatre in mauve rose mules that brought a Y2K finish to a crisp white shirt and black pedal pushers. Tessa Thompson wearing a vintage pair of two-toned Prada mules in New York City on Saturday. GC Images The vintage slip-ons mixed two shades of purple leather. Dusty mauve framed the sides of the square-toed upper, while a richer plum section covered the front of the shoe. Thin leather strips formed a knotted, rose-like detail at the center, with small leaf-shaped accents on either side. Visible stitching traced the embellishment and continued across the darker toe panel. The open-backed style sat on a gently curved heel that widened slightly towards the base. Tessa Thompson outside of the James Earl Jones Theatre signing autographs in a pair of early 2000s Prada slip-on mules. GC Images The two-tone pop of color did most of the work against Thompson's spare black-and-white outfit. Her oversized collared shirt fell past the hips, while fitted pedal pushers stopped at mid-calf and left the mules fully visible.

CEDAR GROVE - Tim Riche was a marginal player when Pompton Lakes won its only state ******* le in 2024.
A sophomore during the Cardinals magical ride to the Group 1 championship that year, Riche envisioned a time when he would play a key role on a ******* le-contending team for the Passaic County school.
Two years later, the senior will get his final chance.
Behind Riche’s four-hit, eight strikeout, complete-game effort, Pompton Lakes edged Cedar Grove, 3-2 in a Group 1 state semifinal on June 8 at Linfante Field in Essex County.
Riche helped his own cause, collecting three hits at the plate, including the game-winning RBI in the seventh with two outs and the score knotted 2-2.

New York Liberty rookie guard Pauline Astier piloted the offense down the stretch, and Breanna Stewart fueled a second-half comeback that amounted in an 83-75 win over the Indiana Fever on Saturday at Barclays Center in Commissioner’s Cup play.
The Fever led for most of the first half and by as many as nine points in the opening two quarters, and that's despite Clark struggling early. She was 0 of 5 from the floor in the first quarter and didn't make her first field goal until more than three minutes into the second frame.
Although Liberty guard Marine Johannes drilled a pair of 3-pointers in the game's infancy, New York quickly went cold from downtown. In fact, head coach Chris DeMarco's team, which came in third in the WNBA with a 36.8% clip from 3, missed 16 of its 18 long-range attempts, clocking out with its fewest-made 3s in a game since 2022.
Indiana received a sizable boost from forward Monique Billings. She went scoreless in the Fever's previous two outings. This time around, though, she piled up a season-high 15 points and eight rebounds. Billings helped the Fever create separation late in the first quarter after the score was knotted 15-15. Five quick points from the veteran did the trick.
Indiana entered the second quarter with a four-point advantage. The Fever remained in control as Clark started to find her footing as a scorer. She knocked down her patented step-back 3 midway through the frame.

Charlotte Knights 11, Durham Bulls 6
Another night, another double-digit outburst for Charlotte (32-28). The Knights wasted zero time as Braden Montgomery and Caden Connor drew back-to-back walks to open the first, Korey Lee watched strike three, and Dustin Harris promptly laced a single to plate Montgomery. 1-0, Knights.
Durham answered in the bottom half, but not without a little charity. Shane Murphy served up a leadoff single, then airmailed a pickoff to move the runner up. A grounder pushed him to third, and Korey Lee let a pitch get by to gift the tying run.
Charlotte’s bats responded in the second. The Knights hung a crooked four on the Bulls, capped by Connor unloading for a three-run shot — his third of the year — to put Charlotte up 5-1 and feeling pretty cozy.
That comfort was gone in a hurry as Murphy unraveled over the next two frames with Durham chipping away, eventually knotting things at 5-5. The Bulls even nosed ahead 6-5 in the sixth off Chase Plymell, threatening to turn Charlotte’s big night into a wasted effort.
But the Knights had other ideas in the eighth. Ryan Galanie sparked the rally with a one-out double, Andy Weber knocked an RBI single to tie it, and after a Josh Breaux fly out, Weber swiped second and scored on a clutch Jason Matthews base hit. Charlotte back on top, 7-6.
