Trump calls for unity and bipartisan healing

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump was somberly contemplative and unusually conciliatory after confronting what he saw as a third attempt on his life in less than two years. He suggested that his personal politics had made him a repeated target, but he also called for unity and bipartisan healing in an increasingly violent world. “It’s always shocking when something like this happens.

NFL DRAFT GRADES

(AP) — From Fernando Mendoza to Mr. Irrelevant Red Murdock, 257 players were selected in the 2026 NFL draft. Some will have instant success. Others will need more time to develop. Not all of them will make the roster. Teams spent several months scouting, interviewing, dissecting each player’s physical skills and character before the draft. It’ll take a couple of years to determine whether they got it right. Here are the AP’s early grades: ARIZONA CARDINALS: B- RB Jeremiyah Love is a special talent and instant upgrade.

Browns bolster offense

BEREA (AP) — Even though most of the frustration with the Cleveland Browns’ offense has focused on the lack of a franchise quarterback, the unit has also been among the worst because of struggles at wide receiver and injuries along the offensive line.
