"The players were neither fined nor disciplined, nor will they ever be."
MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred is pushing back after Sen. Josh Hawley accused the league of targeting San Francisco Giants players who wrote Bible verse references on their Pride Night hats.
In a letter to Hawley, Manfred said the players received only a "routine oral warning" related to MLB's uniform policy and stressed that no fines or discipline were issued. He also said the league later learned the Giants had not clearly informed players they could opt out of the Pride-themed cap and wear a standard game cap instead.
The dispute has become the latest flashpoint in the debate over religious expression, Pride events, and professional sports.

President Trump is weighing in after a violent weekend in Chicago left six people dead and 39 others shot.
The violence included a drive-by shooting at a Juneteenth celebration in Princeton Park, where police say gunmen opened fire from an SUV into a crowd, injuring 13 people.
Trump pointed to Washington, D.C.'s crime crackdown as a model, arguing Chicago could see a similar turnaround if state leaders sought federal assistance.

This stunning floor is over 2,400 years old. Built from thousands of tiny pebbles, it once decorated the Palace of Aigai in Greece—one of the largest buildings of Classical Greece. And in 336 BC, this very palace became the place where Alexander the Great was proclaimed king.
At first glance, it looks less like a flower and more like something that escaped from a fantasy novel.
Meet the Black Bat Flower (Tacca chantrieri)—one of nature’s strangest botanical creations.
During wartime, fury is an absolutely justified emotion for our people. But fury must be followed by action. It can’t just be fury and nothing more. The Russians must feel that the war must return to Russia, to the territory of the country that launched the aggression.
This year, we’ve started to really hit them hard. Our defense industry, our Defense Forces, and our production capabilities have begun the process of bringing the war back to Russia. The Russians are attacking us every day – and we will strike back every day. Our response will grow stronger with each passing day.
Yesterday, we responded by striking their oil refinery in the Tyumen region. Two new Fire Point drones hit the target, covering 2,070 kilometers in a direct flight. They will be able to reach more than 3,000 kilometers. These are new drones. We will keep going because we know where their military factories, oil depots, gas storage facilities, and other sites are located. We need a longer-range instrument.

BREAKING: In a humiliating moment, the leader of Qatar’s negotiating team just completely ignored JD Vance. These negotiations are going horribly and once again the Trump Administration is making the US the laughing stock of the world.

Their Military is DONE, their Navy is GONE, their Air Force is GONE, their Launching Pads, Missiles, Drones and Manufacturing of same, is almost GONE, their top two sets of Leaders are GONE, their Inflation is at 250%, their Economy is BROKEN, their Soldiers aren’t being paid, the Hormuz Strait is OPEN, THE OIL IS GUSHING, and the U.S. Stock Market and Jobs are at record HIGHS. That’s what’s CHANGED, you corrupt and unethical cowards, and MORE!!! President DJT
