data-mm-id=”_z8xh6bnrn”>Former Trump administration official Peter Navarro was sentenced to four months in prison on Thursday and protesters outside the courthouse were delighting in his misery. As the 74-year-old attempted to talk to the press after the sentencing, he was drowned out by people holding signs, blowing whistles and ringing cowbells. In September, Navarro was convicted on two counts of contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with a subpoena issued by the January 6 committee. He refused to testify and refused to turn over documents to committee. On Thursday, he was sentenced to four months in prison and ordered to pay a fine of $9,500. This is what happened when Navarro attempted to discuss the sentence with reporters:lol this is not going well for Peter Navarro pic.twitter.com/3Y4tvFoRX4— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) January 25, 2024And more:nevertheless he persisted pic.twitter.com/smUyXE8z3V— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) January 25, 2024I'm sorry, but that's objectively funny. This has happened to Navarro before, yet he keeps showing up and trying to talk to the press while people hold up signs insulting him and try to distract him. Yet he keeps going out there and trying to defend himself, even after being convicted.

Paris Saint-Germain have reached an agreement with Sao Paulo over the proposed transfer of Lucas Beraldo, according to Fabrizio Romano. The documents are being drawn up at the moment and are expected to be signed very soon, with the player currently waiting to undergo a medical with the Ligue 1 champions.
Age only 20, Beraldo is primarily a centre-back, but he has been known to step into the breach as a defensive midfielder too if need be, and his versatility is surely one of the things that will have attracted the attention of the PSG scouts. Since earning a place in the senior squad at Sao Paulo, he has made a total of 52 appearances for the club, getting on the scoresheet once.
With his contract running until 2028, Sao Paulo have apparently agreed to relinquish his s…
Market: Real Oviedo win
Odds: 11/10 @
Smelling the chance to lay down another Segunda marker on Sunday afternoon, Real Oviedo will welcome Ponferradina to the Carlos Tartiere.
Starting with the hosts, while Real Oviedo might need a minor miracle if they’re to claim a play-off spot this season, Alvaro Cervera’s men have continued on a real Segunda purple patch since returning from March’s international break. Last seen putting in another eye-catching display as they claimed a 2-1 victory away at Ibiza, Los Azules have collected 10 points from their last four second-tier appearances. In fact, causing a real upset on April 9th as they snatched a 1-0 win away at promotion contenders Las Palmas, the Blues have won each of their previous three straight Segunda o…

Portuguese sensation Joao Felix has the opportunity to follow in the footsteps of some of Europe s finest forwards after opting to join Atletico Madrid rather than any of the other huge clubs chasing his signature.
The 19-year-old scored 15 goals in 26 Primeira Liga appearances during his first season in the Benfica side and his dynamic performances lit up the Eagles campaign as they edged a wonderfully close 2018-19 title race.
Scorer of a Europa League hat-trick against Eintracht Frankfurt in April, Joao Felix has earned a reputation for breathtaking moments of skill, and he possesses the kind of exquisitely delicate touch that would make him an ideal replacement for outgoing Atletico forward Antoine Griezmann.
With Atleti spending €126million to land Joao…
Crystal Palace caretaker manager Paddy McCarthy believes new boss Oliver Glasner will have seen plenty to excite him in the Eagles’ battling 1-1 draw at Everton.
Hours after being confirmed as the successor to veteran Roy Hodgson, who stood down earlier in the day, Glasner was watching from the stand at Goodison Park as Palace claimed a point on Monday night.
McCarthy, who took charge of the side along with fellow assistant Ray Lewington after Hodgson was taken ill last week, feels the team being handed over is in fine shape.

Muller has been heavily linked to struggling Premier League giants Manchester United and Serie A outfit Inter since revealing he was considering his future at Bayern.
