It's okay to give fairies certain gifts, but you'd better not accept one from them.

America is celebrating its first U.S. men's hockey gold since the '80s, toppling Canada with a clutch overtime goal amid historically sharp tensions between the neighboring nations. The big picture: The victory was extra sweet for the MAGA world, which swiftly seized the win as an opportunity to roast Ottawa — and uplift Team USA's star player Jack Hughes' patriotism after calling out other athletes for criticizing the current state of the country. "We're USA. We're so proud to be Americans. Tonight was all for the country," Hughes said after the win.

FBI Director Kash Patel dismissed critics of his presence in the locker room during the U.S. men's hockey team's celebration of their gold medal game victory over Canada on Sunday. Patel, who was in attendance in Milan, Italy, was captured on camera in Team USA's locker room on the final day of the Winter Olympics. At one point, the FBI director drinks a beer and bangs on a table, before forward Matthew Tkachuk drapes his gold medal around Patel and the group loudly sings "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue" by the late Toby Keith.

Jack Hughes was overcome with American pride as his goal gave Team USA the gold medal in men's ice hockey in overtime against Canada on Sunday. Hughes buried one behind Canadian goaltender Jordan Binnington, giving the Americans their first gold medal in the sport since 1980 – which was won by the "Miracle on Ice" team that upset the Soviet Union 46 years to the day Team USA defeated Canada.

In the days before his State of the Union address, President Trump has claimed to have ushered in a historic comeback. "So just one year ago under crooked Joe Biden — and he was crooked as hell — our country was dead," he said at a rally last week in Georgia. "Now we have the hottest country. In one year, we have the hottest country anywhere in the world." But economic indicators and crime metrics do not show abrupt reversals from "worst" to "best," as the president often brags. Rather, trends on these issues that began before Mr. Trump retook office continued, largely unabated, in his first year back. Here is what the data show.

Popular GLP-1 weight-loss medications have helped millions of people shed pounds, but new research from Australia suggests doctors and patients may need to pay closer attention to what users are actually eating while taking them. A systematic review from the Hunter Medical Research Institute (HMRI) found that while the medications are effective for weight loss, many clinical trials fail to track changes in diet or whether patients are still getting enough essential nutrients. According to researchers, that gap could increase the risk of malnutrition over time.

NO. There is no legal process that allows voters to recall a sitting member of Congress. The Congressional Research Service notes that members of the U.S. Senate and House serve fixed terms and cannot be removed by voters through recall elections. However, each chamber may expel its own members via a two-thirds vote. AllSides highlights content from Gigafact, a network of newsrooms that respond to online claims.
