...whatever else it is they do. The World Cup is mildly entertaining because you get to see them sublimate their little issues by kicking a ball at one another, sort of like watching your children backyard-wrestle. Senegal beats France, and the Senegalese throw a huge party venting their anger over two centuries of French colonialism. Imagine how much fun it is for anyone to act superior to the French, and multiply that by Senegal. And last Friday England and Argentina got to work out whatever their deal was with those islands.

That pent-up anger is on display at Lahore's Shahudha mosque, where afternoon prayers have just let out and dozens of men in skullcaps are milling in the afternoon sun. As they part to make way for a phalanx of policemen who are dispersing the crowd, they grumble about the President.

In fact, he says he is "happy" to face the scrutiny of congressional investigators, a pronouncement that jibes nicely with his live television appearance last week, during which he outlined plans to restructure the FBI. He also offered a simple and direct mea culpa, referring specifically to Coleen Rowley's now-famously scathing letter, which criticized Mueller specifically and the FBI culture in general...
Wing heard about Harvard’s loss after taking the first game at No. 4, causing her to lose focus and drop the second, 10-8. But she channeled her anger and didn’t drop another point en route to winning her match...
