Summary

The first trade deal is done as President Trump will share details of tariffs with the United Kingdom on Thursday. Street racing, break ins and unsafe restaurants in KC go global after local reporting from Fox 4 is picked up everywhere. One European outlet refers to KC as a midwestern "Mad Max Hell Hole." Ouch. Terrorist supporting protesters take over Columbia University's library in New York but they forgot Biden is gone. They got locked in by the feds and had to show ID to get out. It didn't go well as at least 70 went to jail and many of them will be deported. Bobby Witt Junior's two run homer is enough to beat the White Sox even though Charlie Sheen tried to give it away in the 9th. The royals are scalding hot but a 9th inning change has to be coming. Rumors are swirling everywhere Jacque Vaughn could be Bill Self's new lead assistant. If he is... this has to be at least a first step toward the KU great possibly taking over for Self when he retires. Isaiah Pacheco of the Chiefs gets his college degree, ESPN is announcing a new platform while parent company Disney is building a theme park in a country where being gay is illegal and Tyreek Hill chows down from his hospital bed.
