Breakout Real Madrid starlet set to be called up for Osasuna meeting
A breakthrough member of the midfield ranks at La Liga giants Real Madrid is expected to be afforded a call-up for the club's season opener next week. That's according to El Chiringuito TV, who point towards Thiago Pitarch as the player in question. The name of youngster Pitarch has of course emerged as a prominent one in the chatter surrounding Real Madrid over the last week. This comes after word that the 18-year-old had been called up to first-team training in Spain's capital was quickly followed by confirmation that Xabi Alonso had been left dazzled by Pitarch's talents. As much culminated in the midfielder being handed a new Blancos contract this weekend. And as alluded to above, if the latest word stemming from the media is anything to go by, then Pitarch's sudden emergence looks set to be taken up another notch over the days ahead. As per a report from El Chiringuito TV: 'Pitarch will not play against Ibiza with Castilla. Extended until 2030, everything suggests that Xabi Alonso is counting on him against Osasuna.'

Dallas Cowboys vs Baltimore Ravens, Preseason Game 2025 Live Updates
Take 2. The Dallas Cowboys have returned from their West Coast training camp and are ready to buckle down in preparation for the 2025 season. The first step back in Texas? Their second exhibition game of the year, this time hosting the AFC's Baltimore Ravens on Saturday night. The Cowboys came out the gate slowly in their first preseason action, failing to mount much of an offense until late in the game. With Dak Prescott once again sitting out the preseason, a time-honored tradition since 2019, second-year QB Joe Milton will once again get the start. It took a while for Milton to settle in last week, and he'll need a stronger performance to convince Brian Schottenheimer and the coaching staff that he's capable of being the regular season backup. How to Watch: Cowboys vs Ravens The Cowboys will play more starters than last week, with at least first-round rookie Tyler Booker making his professional debut, but the staff has held their plans tightly to the vest. Schottenheimer has already stated he doesn't plan to reveal much of their scheme, rather saving the bells and whistles for the Week 1 opener in Philadelphia against the champion Eagles. For now, the Ravens are the task and fans can keep up with all of the action here. Check back throughout the evening as we provide updates on the exhibition contest in Arlington, with the most recent highlights appearing at the top. Pregame Activities Who's in, Who's out? The Cowboys are going to break out their new center-right guard tandem tonight, with rookie Tyler Booker making his debut. The team will have Cooper Beebe, who sat out the exhibition opener. Rookie running back Jaydon Blue will not see action, however. This article originally appeared on Cowboys Wire: Dallas Cowboys vs Baltimore Ravens, Preseason Game 2025 Live Updates

D.C. Homeless Encampments Removed amid Trump Police Takeover: ‘They Don't Want to Be Reminded That Poor People Exist'
The president announced on Aug. 11 that he was temporarily seizing control of the Metropolitan Police Department NEED TO KNOW Bulldozers, garbage trucks and apparent warning notes have appeared on tents in Washington, D.C., following Donald Trump's takeover of the Metropolitan Police Department Trump announced the temporary federalization of the police force in D.C. on Aug. 11, citing crime and homelessness 'It just feels wrong to me. The idea that we're poor makes them uncomfortable,' resident David Beatty told NPR Days after Donald Trump announced the temporary federalization of the police force in Washington, D.C., people living in homeless encampments have begun to pack up — with some camps already being cleared. The president announced on Monday, Aug. 11, that he was seizing control of the Metropolitan Police Department and deploying the National Guard in an effort to target the homeless population and address crime. Residents have since spotted bulldozers clearing left-behind tents, notes on tents warning people to move out and garbage trucks collecting items. On Friday, Aug. 15, the New York Post reported that 75 encampments have been cleared around the capital, with the Department of the Interior confirming to the outlet that United States Park Police have done so since the signing of Trump's 'Making the District of Columbia Safe and Beautiful' executive order in March. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt also shared during a recent news conference that police have removed 70 encampments since Trump signed his executive order. It is not clear how many more encampments have been removed as of Saturday, Aug. 16. A spokesperson for the department did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment. According to The Washington Post, members of D.C.'s Health and Human Services began removing an encampment near the Kennedy Center after giving residents a day's notice to clear out, setting a 10 a.m. deadline. A spokesperson for the deputy mayor for Health and Human Services told the outlet that the area qualified for expedited removal due to its location near a highway, and referred the Post to the mayor's communication team when asked if the White House was involved in the decision. Nonprofit outreach workers helped residents clear their belongings. The spokesperson told the Post that they made offers of shelter for those in the encampment. D.C. Council member Brianne K. Nadeau told the outlet that such "dramatic action" erodes "the trust we have built with folks living outside and diminishes our ability to bring them into permanent housing and get them stabilized." David Beatty, 65, told NPR on Thursday, when crews near the Lincoln Memorial began to dismantle a small encampment: "It just feels wrong to me. The idea that we're poor makes them uncomfortable. They don't want to be reminded that poor people exist.' '[The president] is targeting us and persecuting us,' Beatty also told USA Today. 'He wants to take our freedom away.' Related: Trump announced during a White House press conference this week that officials would be "removing homeless encampments from all over our parks," claiming that those who don't have homes are "not going to be allowed to turn our capital into a wasteland." According to NPR, experts says between 800 and 900 people sleep on Washington's streets per night in the summer, as some people experiencing homelessness told the outlet that they aren't comfortable living in the city's other options. Dana White of Miriam's Kitchen said that shelter capacity in the city can also be "very limited." "No, I don't want to be there. Shelters are not the best option because they cram people in there and you [aren't] always sure of who is who," said Jessy Wall, who spoke with NPR while packing his belongings into garbage bags. Wall told USA Today that he found a note on his tent Wednesday night warning him that it would be removed the following day. He moved into the tent a year prior and shared that he doesn't know where he's headed in the weeks to come, calling the removal of encampments "cruel." Earlier this week, the president put Attorney General Pam Bondi in charge of the city police as he warned of deploying other military forces "if needed." Trump later indicated that he planned to extend the initial 30-day takeover of D.C. police and expand to other cities, sharing while announcing the 2025 Kennedy Center nominees that the White House would be "asking for extensions on that long-term." "That's going to serve as a beacon for New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and other places all over the country," Trump said. "Our whole country is going to be so different and so great. It's going to be clean and safe and beautiful, and people are going to love our flag more than they've ever loved it. And we're going to do a great job." Trump's latest move has prompted protests around the city, with some residents calling the action extreme and accusing the White House of attempting to distract from the Epstein files. Despite Trump's recent claims, crime rates in the city have been substantially declining over the past year and a half — with violent crime in 2025 down 26% from 2024. Trump has since alleged without evidence that crime statistics have been skewed to cover up the extent of the city's crime. Read the original article on People
