The Claim Texas Governor Greg Abbott received the treatment, known as REGEN-COV, after testing positive for COVID-19. His usage of REGEN-COV came under scrutiny due to how it was tested—with people linking the treatment to fetal tissue. Kaivan Shroff, a Democratic strategist, tweeted on Wednesday, September 1: “Just days ago Texas Governor Greg Abbott took Regeneron for COVID—a drug tested on cells derived from fetal tissue. The hypocrisy never stops....

Here are the main issues surrounding the vote. Why was Russia banned? A report by a commission of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) last year revealed doping, cover-ups and attempted bribery on a huge scale in the country. The authors of the commission’s report described it as state-sponsored doping.

That night, No. 2 Syracuse will host No. 17 Duke in an eagerly-anticipated Saturday night game....

The Last of Us: Homecoming went viral and was trending for all the wrong reasons recently.

A meticulous reconstruction of the 14th-century Templo Mayor, perhaps the greatest of Aztec monuments, forms the heart of one of the most ambitious exhibitions ever staged at London’s Royal Academy. More than 350 treasures, many seen for the first time outside Mexico, include exquisite turquoise mosaics, monumental sculptures and the pictorial manuscripts the Aztecs used to record their history. Other elements of Aztec belief–like the human sacrifices that, according to the Spanish, made the temple reek of blood–are left to the imagination....

For those that haven’t been keeping up with Fall Guys of late, season 2 was generally well received. Despite this, there were some that bemoaned its lack of new levels, as it only introduced four new maps to the list of available contests. The mid season update releasing today rectifies some of this issue, as it introduces a new level and yet more features, but fans still want to see more....

A new study by U.K. researchers found that you can tell just by looking at someone’s face whether they’re interested in casual sex or long-term commitment. And, not surprisingly, women tend to be more attracted to the guys who look like true boyfriend material, while men are drawn to faces that seem to say “one-night stand,” found the study, published Tuesday in the journal Evolution and Human Behavior. Researchers created composite images of college students who identified themselves as either looking for a fling or true love and asked 700 participants to separate the hussies from the prudes....

Trump has since used the platform to post, including spreading further misinformation, such as the ongoing false claim that Joe Biden’s 2020 election win was fraudulent. So, when a tweet appeared to share ads from Truth Social for “Mike Lindell’s MyStraw…so you can easily drink up those liberal tears” and a Covid-19 vaccine radar, it might have seemed like a new victory for controversial and misleading actors. The Claim...

Greene was recently suspended from Twitter for spreading misinformation about COVID vaccines and the disease on the social network. Her refusal to discuss her vaccine status comes as some private businesses in the U.S. are asking customers about their vaccine status, as the lifting of mask mandates in most settings applies only to fully-vaccinated people, according to CDC guidelines.

Similar to the rest of Fairy Tail’s most powerful abilities, the Lumen Histoire’s roots can be traced back to Mavis Vermillion, the Fairy Tail guild’s founder and first master. Many have tried to take control of this power, as seen in the case of Raven Tail, yet none have ever gotten hold of the secret magic....
