Metcalf plans to appeal the suspension, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. If the suspension stands, Metcalf will forfeit $555,556 for the two games. Ryan Kennedy, the Detroit Lions fan involved in the altercation with Metcalf on Sunday, denied he used a racial slur, "misogynistic, or hate-based language during the incident," according to a statement released by a Michigan law firm Monday. "These allegations are completely false," the statement read. "Since these false statements began circulating publicly, Mr. Kennedy has been subjected to harassment, threats, and messages advocating violence, creating serious concern for his and his family's personal safety and well-being. No private individual should be falsely branded with such accusations or exposed to threats based on misinformation," it continued.

The Steelers need one more win to clinch the division, but the absence of Metcalf could affect how the Steelers operate on offense. The Steelers play the 3-12 Cleveland Browns in Week 17, followed by a regular-season finale against the Ravens at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh in Week 18. "I heard about it, but I hadn’t seen it," head coach Mike Tomlin said of Metcalf’s incident after the game. "I hadn’t had an opportunity to talk to DK." Metcalf didn’t meet with the media after the game. He has the right to appeal the suspension if he wishes.

'Nauseating' Hunter Biden narrative exposed: Greg Kelly

President Trump announced on Monday that the United States Navy will begin building massive battleships for the first time since 1944, to join the “Golden Fleet.” Trump announced that the new Trump-class battleships will include two ships to be built immediately, with the first named USS Defiant. He said the vessels will be 100 times more powerful than the Iowa-class battleships from WWII and will be equipped with missiles, hypersonic weapons, railguns, high-powered lasers, nuclear-armed cruise missiles, and AI technology. “There’s never been anything like these ships,” Trump said. “These are the best in the world. They will be the fastest, the biggest, and by far 100x more powerful than any battleship ever built.” NEW: President Trump announces that he approved a plan for the construction of two new battleships. He says they will be larger than ever and have “100x the power” of the Iowa-class battleships. The last battleship (USS Missouri) was built in 1944 decommissioned in 1992. pic.twitter.com/TDylUGasWK — Kassy Akiva (@KassyAkiva) December 22, 2025 The Golden Fleet is the Navy’s “bold investment to revitalize America’s maritime industrial base,” according to the initiative’s newly launched website. “America’s next battleship, the USS Defiant, will be part of a new class of large surface combatants with the most destructive fire power of any surface ship to ever sail — having the ability to strike an adversary at 80x the range of the previous class,” the website states. “The Trump-class Battleship will be the first-ever guided missile battleship with the ability to deploy with nuclear and hypersonic missiles.” Photo: U.S. Navy The USS Defiant is expected to take 2.5 years to build and is projected to measure 840 to 880 feet long, with a beam of 105 to 115 feet and a draft of 24 to 30 feet, displacing over 30,000 to 40,000 tons. The ship is designed to reach speeds greater than 30 knots and will accommodate 650 to 850 crew members. While two ships will begin to be built immediately, Trump said the planned class size for the fleet is 20 to 25 ships. Christmas Sale – Get 40% off New DailyWire+ Annual Memberships According to the Military Times, a Government Accountability Office report detailed two decades of poor performance at U.S. shipyards, citing low production, significant schedule delays, and issues with faulty functionality. Trump said the new ships will be built with steel in modernized American shipyards, creating thousands of jobs, and that he will personally weigh in on the design as a “very aesthetic person.” President Trump says he is going to help design the new U.S. Navy Battleships because he is “a very aesthetic person.” pic.twitter.com/K78rteOSMp — Kassy Akiva (@KassyAkiva) December 22, 2025 “The US Navy will lead the design of these ships along with me because I’m a very aesthetic person alongside our partners in American industry,” Trump said. “The construction will create thousands of American jobs.” Trump said the new fleet will be a restoration of American naval power, pointing to the great ships of the past, including President Theodore Roosevelt’s Great White Fleet to the USS Missouri, which played an important role in WWII, including hosting the Japanese surrender. “America’s battleships have always been unmistakable symbols of national power,” Trump said. “We stopped making them for whatever reason, I don’t know.” Trump added that 15 submarines are under construction and he plans to order more warships to join the Golden Fleet, including destroyers and a new class of aircraft carriers. “This is American industrial power returning,” said Secretary of State Marco Rubio. “Generations of Americans will be grateful for it.” The USS Missouri, built in 1944, was the last U.S. battleship to enter service and remained active until its decommissioning in 1992. It is now a museum ship at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The Golden Fleet (U.S. Navy) Battleships were largely abandoned after WWII as aircraft came to increasingly dominate naval warfare. These slow, heavily armored ships were designed to fight other vessels, making them easy targets for air attacks — a weakness made clear at Pearl Harbor, where the USS Arizona, USS Oklahoma, USS California, and USS West Virginia were sunk in 1941. In the decades since, aircraft carriers, submarines, and missile-armed warships have replaced battleships in the U.S. Navy. Secretary of the Navy John Phelan said the Trump-class battleships will be essential to the Navy, will have the most modern weapons systems, and serve as a flagship for commanders to oversee naval forces far out at sea. “Not only is the president’s idea a good one, it’s something the Navy desperately needs and now has a formal requirement for,” he said. “The future Trump-class battleship the USS Defiant will be the largest, deadliest, and most versatile and best-looking warship anywhere on the world’s oceans.” Specifications for the Trump-class Battleships. (U.S. Navy) He added that the ships will give the United States a “new leg” in nuclear deterrence for the “first time in generations” because the battleships will carry the nuclear armed sea-launched cruise missile. “We are going to make battleships great again,” Phelan said. “The USS Defiant battleship will inspire awe and reverence for the American flag whenever it pulls into a foreign port.” The battleship announcement comes as the Navy expands its fleet with a new class of smaller, agile warships. The FF(X) small surface combatant, based on the U.S. Coast Guard’s Legend-class, will be a highly-adaptable vessel, with the first ship expected to enter service in 2028.

President Donald Trump warned Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro against playing “tough” with the United States on Monday. The president offered grave advice to Maduro while taking questions from reporters after announcing the construction of a new “Trump-Class” of battleship. Trump, asked why Maduro “should take [Trump’s] threats seriously,” said Maduro could do “whatever he wants.” “He can do whatever he wants. We have a massive armada formed, the biggest we’ve ever had – by far the biggest we’ve ever had in South America. He could do whatever he wants. It’s alright. Whatever he wants to do, if he wants to do something. If he plays tough, it’ll be the last time he’s ever able to play tough,” said Trump. The president was asked about Maduro and U.S. goals in Venezuela several times throughout the press conference and repeatedly said the decision is up to Maduro. Christmas Sale – Get 40% off New DailyWire+ Annual Memberships “I think it probably would,” said Trump when asked if the United States is seeking to oust Maduro from power. “That’s up to him what he wants to do. I think it would be smart for him to do that, but, again, we’re going to find out.” The Trump administration has ramped up the U.S. pressure campaign on Venezuela. Over the summer, the U.S. military began to surge battleships and troops into the southern Caribbean to close down drug trafficking routes out of Venezuela. The United States has added the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier, the most advanced warship in the U.S. fleet, to the military assets stationed off Venezuela’s coast. In recent weeks, the Trump administration has targeted sanctioned tanker ships used to move Venezuelan oil to international buyers, such as Iran. The president said that the United States will keep the ships and the oil that it confiscates as the administration ramps up its pressure campaign on Maduro. “We’re going to keep it. Maybe we’ll sell it. Maybe we’ll keep it. Maybe we’ll use it in the strategic reserves,” said Trump on Monday.

No one really wants to talk about death, but it’s the only way out of this world. Of course, we want to make the very best of every minute we have, and that might mean helping to make plans for our funerals. Sure, it might seem morbid, but helping out with those details could also take a lot of pressure off family and friends as they grieve. According to People, the topic came up during a recent episode of the Today Show, and George W. Bush has plans. “This is a little morbid, but have you ever thought about a song you want played at your funeral? I have!” Savannah said, “It’s ‘Take It to the Limit’ by The Eagles. I love that song so much. That’s my funeral song.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Jenna Bush Hager (@jennabhager) George W. Bush Has His Funeral Song Ready to Roll Jenna Bush Hager said her dad, George W. Bush, has his funeral song already picked out. “My dad has always had a funeral song, and it used to be [John Fogerty’s ‘Centerfield’]. ‘Put me in coach, I’m ready to… ‘ But now it’s ‘Oh, Happy Day!’ He wants that,” she said. Yes, it’s the same Oh, Happy Day that Sister Mary Clarence taught the students at the failing St. Francis Academy in Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit. She got those kids to go from zero to hero in less than two hours, and we all started singing. It’s definitely the kind of song that evokes lots of emotion, and if you’re thinking about Whoopi Goldberg wearing a nun’s outfit, it might even make you smile. We’re not sure, but that seems like something George W. Bush would like at his funeral. Sure, there is always an element of sadness in saying goodbye to those we love, but if they leave us smiling and fondly remembering them, it makes those experiences just a bit easier.

Saying the Quiet Part Out Loud: You Must Give Up Your Freedom for Multiculturalism

A spokesperson for former President Bill Clinton released a statement accusing the Trump administration of unfairly releasing selective portions of the Epstein files.The Dept. of Justice released a trove of documents from the case against convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, with many of the photographs relating to Clinton.'Someone or something is being protected. We do not know whom, what, or why. But we do know this: We need no such protection.'On Monday, the former president called for more transparency in the release in a statement released by his spokesperson Angel Urena."The Epstein Files Transparency Act imposes a clear legal duty on the U.S.Department of Justice to produce the full and complete record the public demands and deserves," Clinton's statement reads."However, what the Department of Justice has released so far, and the manner in which it did so, makes one thing clear: Someone or something is being protected. We do not know whom, what, or why. But we do know this: We need no such protection," the statement continued.He went on to call on Trump to direct U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi to "immediately" release other materials that related to Clinton, including "grand jury transcripts, interview notes, photographs," as well any findings from the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York."Refusal to do so will confirm the widespread suspicion the Department ofJustice's actions to date are not about transparency, but about insinuation," Clinton's statement continued, "using selective releases to imply wrongdoing about individuals who have already been repeatedly cleared by the very same Department of Justice, over many years, under presidents and Attorneys General of both parties."RELATED: Hundreds could be implicated by files from heinous Epstein case, says federal judge Among the photos widely circulated on social media from the release is one of Clinton with his arm around a young lady who also has her arm around his shoulders. Her face is obscured to protect her identity. Another photograph shows the former president in a swimming pool with Epstein's consort, Ghislaine Maxwell, as well as another woman whose face has been obscured. Like Blaze News?
