Joe Burrow calls Bengals roster the 'most talented' the team has had, has lofty expectations for season

Joe Burrow is thrilled with the Cincinnati Bengals offseason moves and is thinking big.

Burrow, 29, praised the front office for the moves they made in free agency to fortify their defense.

"This is the most talented roster we’ve had since I’ve been here," Burrow said while speaking to reporters Wednesday. "The front office has taken a lot of heat from the fans, the public, the media. We can put all of that behind us.

"They went and made it happen with free agency," he added. "And then obviously with Dexter (Lawrence), making a trade like that, that doesn’t happen a ton in the NFL. So it’s exciting to see."

The three-time Pro Bowl quarterback praised the free-agent signings of safety Bryan Cook, defensive end Boye Mafe and defensive tackle Jonathan Allen, along with the big swing of the offseason: trading the No. 10 pick for defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence.

"The number one thing is you have to win," Burrow said. "We’re going to go win a lot of games this year and play great and win a Super Bowl."

Burrow said he did not give the front office any mandates or threats to make additions after a 6-11 campaign last season.

"I would say we had a lot of communication during free agency," Burrow said. "We didn’t have our postseason meeting like we typically have. I would say if anything, I was less involved this year than in years past."

The Bengals missed the playoffs for a third straight season last year in large part because of a horrendous defense, allowing the third-most points per game in the NFL last season at 28.9.

"I just think we know where we needed to be better, and we went out and aggressively made it happen," Burrow said. "We filled some holes that we had from years past, got better at a lot of positions. Signed the best free agent safety (Cook). Got the best D tackle in the league, in my opinion. So we have everything we need in that locker room. We just have to go make it happen."

The 29-year-old said the energy is elevated in the locker room and that the vibes are palpable.

"There’s no secret that the last several years didn’t go the way we wanted to, and there’s a lot of blame to go around for that, myself included," Burrow said. "We’re in a great spot this year. We brought in great people and great players. You can feel the vibes of the locker room. The energy is elevated right now. We have some veteran guys that can come in and show the younger guys on defense what it takes, what it means to be great every day. That’s exciting to be a part of."

By adding Ed Orgeron to staff, Lane Kiffin and LSU address key flaw from previous regime

For those who may have missed it, Coach O has returned to the Bayou Bengals.

That's right, the LSU Tigers have hired Ed Orgeron to help bolster new head coach Lane Kiffin's staff, and it's hard to see any flaws in this move.

It makes sense from a relationship standpoint, as many have reported that Orgeron and Kiffin have a connection that goes back over two decades, when both were on Pete Carroll's staff at USC.

You also may have noticed Orgeron coming to Kiffin's defense after the latter's comments regarding Ole Miss in Vanity Fair earlier this month.

It seemed reasonable on the surface given the two's friendship as well as the fact that both coached the Rebels at one point, but with the added context that Orgeron was likely going to take a job on Kiffin's staff in the coming days, it makes perfect sense.

From a football perspective, though, it's perhaps even more of a perfect marriage.

It's no secret that during the Brian Kelly regime, LSU had somewhat lost its Louisiana edge, so to speak.

BRIAN KELLY FACES HARSH CRITICISM FROM LSU FOOTBALL STAFFERS AFTER DISMISSAL

Whether that is by design from Kelly, as some would suggest, or just a byproduct of having an "outsider" as a head coach, the contrast between Kelly and Orgeron, who was the coach before Kelly, could not have been more stark.

When speaking about the differences between Kelly and Kiffin, LSU athletic director Verge Ausberry revealed that Kelly was never a culture fit with the Tigers.

That matters in college football in general, but especially at a unique spot like LSU, and while Ausberry was singing the praises of Kiffin's ability to connect with boosters, fans and high school athletes in the state of Louisiana, the move to bring in Orgeron was, no doubt, a calculated and strategic one.

SIX MONTHS LATER, LSU AD VERGE AUSBERRY ADMITS OLE MISS GOT THE LANE KIFFIN SITUATION RIGHT

I touched on it briefly in my article discussing Ausberry's comments last week, but the Tigers experienced a recruiting renaissance with Orgeron at the helm.

A big part of that is because Coach O is known throughout college football as an ace recruiter, but it doesn't hurt that he has deep ties to the state of Louisiana.

LSU and Kiffin adding Orgeron to their coaching staff immediately addresses the one fatal flaw from the Brian Kelly regime, and the returns should be almost instantaneous.

ED ORGERON ON WHO SHOULD BE OUT OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF, LANE KIFFIN'S MOVE TO LSU AND HIS COACHING PLANS

Five-star wide receiver Easton Royal is a Texas verbal commit, but he's also a New Orleans native and has been flirting with the Tigers for quite some time now.

It was already believed that he would eventually flip to his home-state program, but bringing Orgeron in should only hasten that process.

I would be shocked if Royal doesn't end up in LSU's 2027 recruiting class, but he's just one of many examples of the Tigers doing everything they can to lock down the state of Louisiana, which has long been known as a per capita hotbed of high school talent.

ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON'T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!

It may not have the raw size or numbers of a Texas, Florida or California, but The Boot has enough talent to make sure LSU never has to wander too far from campus to field an elite recruiting class.

The rest of the SEC is undoubtedly shaking their fists right now, given that Kiffin didn't need any more help as it stood to get the Tigers' operation back up and humming.

If you thought LSU was dangerous before, adding Orgeron to the staff may have just been Kiffin doing a Thanos impression and placing the final Infinity Stone into his gauntlet.

You've been warned, SEC fans. Prepare accordingly.

Wall Street banks helped Chinese military-linked firm raise billions despite red flags, lawmakers find

FIRST ON FOX: Congressional investigators are accusing major U.S. banks of helping a Chinese battery giant the Pentagon labeled a "Chinese military company" raise billions of dollars from global investors despite unresolved national security concerns.

A new report from the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party alleges JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America underwrote CATL’s Hong Kong IPO — helping the company raise money from investors through stock offerings — after the Pentagon designated the company under its Section 1260H list of Chinese military-linked firms in January 2025. The report also says JPMorgan, Bank of America and Morgan Stanley later participated in a second CATL offering.

The report places Wall Street at the center of a growing debate in Washington over whether American financial institutions should continue helping companies the Pentagon has identified as linked to China’s military or military-civil fusion strategy raise money from global investors, even when those activities remain legal under current U.S. law.

OUR ADVERSARIES ARE EVEN USING THE US BANKING SYSTEM. HERE’S HOW THEY GET AWAY WITH IT

The Pentagon’s Section 1260H list identifies companies the War Department determines are linked to China’s military or military-civil fusion strategy, though the designation itself does not broadly prohibit U.S. investment or commercial activity.

The committee argues the transactions exposed a major gap in U.S. policy because the designation carried reputational consequences but did not prohibit Wall Street firms from helping the company raise capital.

"To be clear, the banks broke no U.S. law and the transactions were not prohibited by U.S. law," the report states. "But each bank made the choice to essentially disregard the U.S. government’s Chinese military company designation to make millions of dollars."

"The banks trusted CATL’s representations over the considered judgment of the U.S. government," the report states.

The report alleges JPMorgan and Bank of America accepted CATL’s assertions that it had no links to China’s military despite the Pentagon’s conclusions and despite what the committee described as incomplete responses during due diligence reviews.

CHINA CONTROLS OVER 80% OF BATTERY MATERIALS CRUCIAL TO US DEFENSE EQUIPMENT, UNSETTLING REPORT REVEALS

CATL allegedly provided identical responses to multiple JPMorgan questions concerning ties to the People’s Liberation Army, dual-use technologies and military-linked entities, according to documents cited in the report. 

The committee also cited what it described as publicly available evidence linking CATL to Chinese military-industrial entities, including relationships with companies on U.S. restriction lists and research collaborations involving defense-linked institutions.

"My committee’s investigation calls for serious policy changes to ensure what JPMorgan and Bank of America did never happens again," said Select Committee Chairman John Moolenaar, R-Mich. "American banks must not help Chinese military companies raise money, because in doing so, they provide not only access to funding, but also legitimacy and credibility to companies that are helping our adversary build up its military."

JPMorgan and Bank of America defended their involvement, arguing CATL is not sanctioned by the U.S. government and remains deeply integrated into Western manufacturing supply chains.

"Based on available information and our own due diligence, CATL has lawfully partnered with American companies — including major auto manufacturers — to provide essential battery technology that will strengthen U.S. manufacturing and enhance American competitiveness," a JPMorgan spokesperson told Fox News Digital.

"We complied with the law and U.S. government sanctions policies," a Bank of America spokesperson told Fox News Digital. "We conducted the appropriate due diligence on this transaction, and we shared significant detail about our process with the committee. CATL is not sanctioned by the US government and conducts significant business with U.S. companies." 

JPMorgan additionally argued the Pentagon designation applies primarily to War Department procurement and does not prohibit private-sector business relationships involving CATL. 

CATL has other partnerships with major Western automakers including Ford, Tesla, Stellantis, BMW and Volkswagen.

JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon previously defended the bank’s work involving CATL in a Bloomberg Television interview in May 2025. 

"If we thought it was wrong, we wouldn't do it," Dimon said. "The government did not sanction CATL." 

The debate underscores growing tension between U.S. national security concerns surrounding China and the reality that major American and European manufacturers remain heavily reliant on Chinese battery technology and supply chains. 

Ford is currently building a $3 billion battery plant in Michigan using CATL technology through a licensing arrangement designed to avoid Chinese ownership of the facility, according to a recent Bloomberg report. Ford has argued the partnership helps strengthen domestic manufacturing and improve U.S. competitiveness in electric vehicle production.

The committee’s report argues current U.S. law is insufficient to stop American financial institutions from financing companies tied to China’s military-industrial base because Section 1260H restrictions primarily affect War Department procurement rather than broader commercial activity.

"The deals were legal, so the banks proceeded," the report states.

The committee recommends legislation that would prohibit U.S. financial institutions from underwriting offerings for blacklisted Chinese entities and urges the Treasury Department to impose stronger sanctions authorities against CATL.

Fox News Digital has also reached out to Morgan Stanley, CATL and the Pentagon for comment. 

Republicans recoil as Trump's billion-dollar DOJ 'slush fund' for allies threatens ICE, Border Patrol plan

Senate Republicans are breaking with President Donald Trump on his new, nearly $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization" fund as concerns over where the money comes from and who gets it ripple through the Capitol.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) announced the $1.78 billion fund earlier this week in a deal struck between Trump and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to drop his $10 billion lawsuit. Shortly after, acting Attorney General Todd Blanche was grilled by senators on the subject.

"This is an outrageous, unprecedented slush fund that you have set up," Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., said. "Simple question, will individuals who assaulted Capitol Hill police officers be eligible for this fund?"

TRUMP DEMANDS SENATE PARLIAMENTARIAN'S OUSTER FOR AXING BALLROOM SECURITY FUNDING

"Anybody in this country will be eligible to apply," Blanche said.

That concern has driven several Senate Republicans to criticize the fund, given that several people convicted of assaulting police on the Hill, or who have tried to harm the president, could get access to taxpayer dollars.

"Imagine that," Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., said.
"A fund that is set up to compensate people who assaulted Capitol Police officers and other responding agencies, right? People that had pled guilty to physical acts against the president may actually be able to get compensated. How absurd does that sound coming out of my mouth?"

Senate Republicans are currently trying to ram through a multibillion-dollar package that will fund immigration operations for the remainder of Trump’s presidency and are already grappling with a $1 billion funding request that will go toward security enhancements for his colossal ballroom.

That funding, which was already stripped out by the Senate rules referee, and whether to add restrictions to the DOJ fund, are gumming up the process in the upper chamber.

SENATE REPUBLICAN THREATENS TO DERAIL ICE, BORDER PATROL PACKAGE OVER TRUMP'S BILLION-DOLLAR REQUEST

Few Republicans are actively supporting the "anti-weaponization" fund. Lawmakers are set to meet with Blanche Thursday morning behind closed doors to learn more about how it works.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., previously said that he was "not a big fan" of the fund and questioned its purpose.

"Our members have very legitimate questions about it, and we've had some conversations about, if it's going to be a feature going forward, what it might look like and how we might make sure that it's fenced in appropriately," Thune said ahead of the meeting.

Officers who protected the Hill on Jan. 6 sued to block the fund on Wednesday, but it hasn’t sated the concerns that Republicans have. Some want Congress to get involved.

Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La., who Trump successfully worked to oust during his primary election over the weekend, argued that the fund was adding to the nation’s staggering national debt, and that "if there needs to be a settlement, the administration should bring it to Congress to decide."

SENATE REPUBLICANS, DEMS BLOCK DUELING ATTEMPTS TO REPEAL CONTROVERSIAL ARCTIC FROST PROVISION

"People are concerned about paying their mortgage or rent, affording groceries and paying for gas, not about putting together a $1.8 billion fund for the president and his allies to pay whomever they wish with no legal precedent or accountability," Cassidy said on X.

But it’s not a unanimous issue shared throughout the Senate GOP. Some, like Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., believe that there have been people "really harmed by the federal government," and had no issue with setting up a fund to compensate them.

Johnson and a handful of his colleagues were the targets of former Special Counsel Jack Smith’s Arctic Frost probe and had their phone records subpoenaed without notice as part of the investigation.

That spurred now-defunct legislation that would have allowed senators targeted in the probe to sue for up to $500,000.

Johnson believed that the five-member panel that would process the claims would prevent criminals and others from getting a piece of the fund.

"I'm assuming they're not going to provide that type of funding for criminals. I mean, people who really should have been prosecuted, people who committed violence, that type of thing," Johnson told Fox News Digital. "But, I mean, for the grandma and grandpas that just showed up and you've got the DOJ or FBI doing SWAT raids on their farms? Yeah, those people should be compensated."

Squad Dem slams Vance’s DOJ fraud probe claims: ‘They’re just saying stupid shi----"

Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., forcefully denied Vice President JD Vance’s claim that the U.S. Department of Justice is investigating her for alleged fraud and immigration violations, dismissing the remarks as politically motivated.

"That is not something that is happening. That man is delusional," Omar told Fox News Digital. 

Vance claimed on Tuesday that the DOJ is looking into allegations involving Omar’s immigration history and financial disclosures, including longstanding accusations that she married a man claimed to be her brother — part of her scheme to obtain citizenship in the U.S. He claimed the administration’s anti-fraud task force is focusing its resources on probing Omar.

ILHAN OMAR LASHES OUT AT 'SICK' REPUBLICANS FOR INVESTIGATING HER ALLEGED MARRIAGE TO BROTHER

"I don’t think they are using any resources," she said. "They’re just saying stupid shi----."

The claims surrounding an investigation intensified after Omar’s amended financial disclosure forms caught national attention last month — with her reported net worth dropping from somewhere between $6 million and $30 million to a sharp reduction ranging from $18,004 to $95,000.

Omar’s steep drop in reported net worth drew criticism from the GOP House Oversight Committee, who earlier this year requested business records from her husband Tim Mynett’s company.

Omar also rejected suggestions that House Republicans are formally investigating her finances, accusing them of promoting these allegations to get interviews with news outlets. 

WINERY BELONGING TO ILHAN OMAR'S HUSBAND SHUT DOWN AMID FINANCIAL SPOTLIGHT

"There’s nobody looking into anything," she said when asked about House Republicans looking into her net worth. "They’re just saying those things to get interviews with you guys. There’s nothing really happening."

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., publicly raised concerns over Omar’s finances on "Hannity" after the vast discrepancy between her initial and revised filings.

"Comer hasn’t investigated anything," she said when asked about Comer’s comments regarding her wealth. "He hasn’t done anything. He hasn’t referred me to anybody. He’s just saying that so he can get TV interviews because you guys will only talk to them if they say something about me."

Omar said they’re "absolutely not" going to find anything if a DOJ probe opens into her alleged fraud schemes. 

She told Fox News Digital that she has not been informed of any formal investigation being pursued against her.

COMER VOWS MINNESOTA FRAUD PROBE WILL EXPAND TO OTHER STATES AMID MOUNTING SCRUTINY

"No," she said when asked if she was made aware of any investigation. "Because there’s nothing to investigate."

Claims surrounding Omar’s past marriage and alleged immigration violations have remained central to ongoing attacks against her. Omar’s family was granted asylum after arriving in the U.S. from Somalia in 1995, and she became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 2000.

It was reported that Omar was in a religious marriage with Ahmed Abdisalan Hirsi in 2002. Despite maintaining her religious union with Hirsi, she legally married a British citizen named Ahmed Elmi — who is alleged to be her brother — in 2009. 

Omar and Elmi legally divorced in 2017, but had been separated since 2011. In 2020, she married Mynett.

Any potential investigation would likely look into both the fraud allegations that come as a result of her incohesive financial filings and claimed immigration violations relating to her earlier marriages and U.S. citizenship. 

"If we think that there's a crime, we're going to prosecute that crime," he said. "And that's something the Department of Justice is looking at right now."

Democrats release 2024 election autopsy that chair says 'does not meet my standards'

Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin is publicly disowning his party’s own 2024 election "autopsy," calling the long-delayed report a product that "does not meet my standards" after Democrats suffered what he described as a "painful and consequential" defeat to President Donald Trump.

The blunt admission came as Martin described Democrats’ 2024 defeat as a "punch to the gut" and acknowledged the party’s "brand is in trouble and needs repair."

"I am not proud of this product; it does not meet my standards, and it won’t meet your standards," Martin said of the report, adding that he could not "in good faith put the DNC’s stamp of approval on it."

Martin emphasized that he was releasing the report "as I received it – in its entirety, unedited and unabridged – with annotations for claims that couldn’t be verified" for the sake of transparency.

- Mamdani snubs the Jews again
- Bill Maher offers a stark warning for Democrats coddling antisemites
- Muslim jiu-jitsu champ refuses Israeli’s handshake: ‘We do not respect them"

TOP STORY: New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is shattering a decades-old tradition by boycotting the Celebrate Israel Parade, sparking intense backlash. Critics condemn the Democratic Socialist for abandoning the city's Jewish community while previously attending parades for nations with questionable human rights records. The move signals a radical shift in City Hall, fueling accusations of deep-seated antisemitism and polarizing New Yorkers.

WAKE-UP CALL: Bill Maher delivered a scathing ultimatum to Democrats: Stop pandering to "woke idiots" and radical anti-Israel activists or face electoral ruin. Blasting the party for coddling antisemitism among its youth base, Maher warned that indulging fringe extremists alienates normal voters. He slammed TikTok-brainwashed protesters, demanding leadership reclaim sanity before the party collapses under its own ideological rot.

COLD SHOULDER: Kuwaiti jiu-jitsu champion Jassim Al-Hatem ignited controversy after winning gold at the Abu Dhabi Grand Slam by refusing to shake the hand of Israeli bronze medalist Yoav Manor. Doubling down on the snub, Al-Hatem declared he does not recognize the "Zionist entity" and called for Israel’s Olympic ban. Politics has once again choked the spirit of sportsmanship.

RADICAL CONVERGENCE: A global surge in coordinated anti-Israel protests is being fueled by a powerful alliance of well-funded leftist and Islamist groups. Marking "Nakba 78," hundreds of organizations across 39 countries are targeting Jewish communities with synchronized demonstrations. Critics warn this "red-green" coalition, backed by massive revenue, weaponizes historical grievances to destabilize Western values and threaten Jewish safety worldwide. 

GUEST EDITORIAL: Liora Rez, founder of StopAntisemitism, warns that "extremist fanboys" are glamorizing antisemitism — and some politicians keep playing along. Rez names names, including Hasan Piker, Nick Fuentes and several others, and says they're making money on social media by hating on Jews.

WWE star Ludwig Kaiser arrested in Florida

WWE star Marcel Barthel, who performs under the names Ludwig Kaiser and El Grande Americano, was arrested in Florida this week.

Barthel, 35, was arrested on a misdemeanor battery charge on Wednesday, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by Fox News Digital. 

He was reportedly booked into the Orange County Jail before he was released on $1,000 bond, the New York Post reported.

ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON'T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!

The wrestler was allegedly involved in an altercation with another man before he was arrested, Fightful reported.

Fox News Digital reached out to WWE for comment.

Barthel’s attorneys filed a motion Wednesday to allow the wrestler to travel outside of the country fork work purposes, according to multiple reports. He flew back to Florida to turn himself in.

Barthel, who was born in Germany, joined the company in 2017 after time in Westside Xtreme Wrestling and Progress Wrestling. He was a part of the Imperium faction with Gunther as the leader and Fabian Aichner, who was later rebranded as Giovanni Vinci before he was released.

"Kaiser established himself as one of the German independent wrestling scene’s brightest prospects," his WWE profile read. "He joined the WWE Performance Center in summer 2017 and made his WWE Network debut a year later on NXT.

"Kaiser has since proven to be a true mat magician, as well as a no-nonsense competitor. With the posture of a steel pole and a facial expression that rarely deviates from the stern setting, Kaiser is practically unflappable — though on the rare occasion that he does lose his cool, he’s quick to let his opponents know by defiantly screaming ‘nein’ in their face. His ring excellence soon led to him aligning with the imposing Imperium faction with two NXT Tag Team Championship reigns under his belt."

He performed as Ludwig Kaiser before his character was repackaged as El Grande Americano when Chad Gable was injured. Since Gable returned, he was repackaged as the Original El Grande Americano and started to feud with Barthel’s El Grande Americano gimmick.

Since then, he’s performed at Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide. El Grande Americano and Original El Grande Americano are set for an end to their heated rivalry with a mask vs. mask match at Noche de Los Grandes on May 30.
