Eagles tighten 53-man roster outlook as Weru earns edge, Lampkin in the mix

With cut-down day looming, this second projection sticks Jalen Hurts, Tanner McKee, and Cole Payton as the three quarterbacks; a backfield of Barkley, Bigsby, and Will Shipley with Carson Steele possibly earning a surprise roster spot; five wide receivers (DeVonta Smith, Dontayvion Wicks, Makai Lemon, Darius Cooper, Hollywood Brown); four tight ends (Goedert, Mundt, Stowers, Latu); nine offensive linemen including Willie Lampkin; six defensive linemen (Jordan Davis, Jalen Carter, Moro Ojomo, Byron Young, Ty Robinson, Uar Bernard); six edge players including Weru; five linebackers; six cornerbacks; three safeties; three specialists. Weru’s strong preseason has him firmly on the roster, Lampkin’s versatility supports his inclusion, and trades or practice-squad moves could still shuffle the final 53.

While these steps don’t guarantee reaching 100, they can boost energy, independence, and the number of healthy years.

Four charts illustrate the growth, debt by president (Obama, Trump, Biden), the shift from deficits (last surplus was 2001) to spending, and a visualization comparing $1 trillion to median household income, with COVID-19 spending driving much of the rise; Biden's term accounts for the largest dollar increase at about $8.45 trillion, followed by Trump and Obama by percentage terms.

Voting Rights Then and Now: From 1965 Act to Today's Battleground

Heather Cox Richardson reminds readers that the Voting Rights Act, signed on August 6, 1965, followed a long arc from Reconstruction amendments and federal enforcement against white supremacist obstruction to protect Black voting rights; she details how later Supreme Court decisions and recent cases have narrowed those protections and boosted suppression in some states, while studies show persistent and widening gaps in turnout—echoing Lyndon Johnson’s pledge that the vote is the core right without which democracy falters.

Gen Z Frenzy at Jersey Shore Bars as Influencers Spark VIP Nights

A viral wave of influencer videos featuring Alix Earle, Livvy Dunne and others has drawn Gen Z crowds to Jersey Shore bars like Jenks Club and The Parker House, where VIP passes costing about $200–$300 let buyers skip lines and secure front-row access. Long waits, steep prices, and multi-year waitlists have sparked mixed feelings among locals who recall a less-commercial past, while bar owners see the VIP system as a tool to manage demand. The phenomenon—amplified by social media—has reshaped a once-local scene into a theme-park-like experience that still drives seasonal business for the shore.

Boutte Dominates Patriots’ Fourth Camp Day as Maye Elevates Offense

The New England Patriots’ fourth training camp practice was the most competitive yet, with Kayshon Boutte delivering a 40-plus yard TD from Drake Maye and continuing to stand out; Maye showed improved rhythm, connecting with Boutte, Henry and Stevenson, though the Maye-Brown connection and Romeo Doubs’ targets remained a work in progress. The tight ends Henry and Raridon were active, undrafted TE Tanner Arkin appears to lead in blocking, Elijah Ponder generated notable edge pressure, and long snapper Julian Ashby had a snap mishap. The team has an off day Wednesday before Thursday’s practice.
