The 2021 NFL schedule is out, and some teams might be more thankful than others for how their regular-season slate was sequenced.

President Donald Trump's pick to lead a federal media agency is attempting one last purge of personnel before Joe Biden is sworn in as the next commander-in-chief. Michael Pack, the CEO of the U.S. Agency for Global Media, is pushing for the removal of agency officials he previously put on administrative leave, according to people briefed on the matter. The organization includes media entities such as Voice of America and the Office of Cuba Broadcasting. Prior to taking the helm at USAGM, Pack was a conservative filmmaker. The whistleblower complaint against Pack was filed in September to the State Department's inspector general and the U.S. Office of Special Counsel, a federal agency watchdog.

A film company founded by President Donald Trump's nominee to run a federal media agency signed a commercial fundraising contract with the Claremont Institute, a nonprofit conservative think tank. The catch is that Trump's choice to be CEO of the agency was Claremont's president when the five figure deal was signed. The deal to lead the fund-raising efforts for Claremont was worth $75,000 to Pack's private film company Manifold, which was paid in $6,250 installments each month. California's state attorney general also listed Manifold as a commercial fundraiser for Claremont in 2017. The discovery that Pack's film company was seeing a benefit from a contract involving a nonprofit that he ran, comes as members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee review his candidacy and Democrats begin to demand answers.
