Fact Check: Protesters Did NOT Deface Philadelphia's Liberty Bell, Did NOT Burn Flag On Capitol Grounds
Did protesters deface the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia or burn the U.S. flag on the Capitol grounds as a video on TikTok claimed?

Philadelphia Flyers' bad treatment of top prospect leads him to leave the team
Philadelphia Flyers prospect Alexei Kolosov has left the team to return to Russia, and the reasons why are quite shocking. Kolosov was drafted in the 3rd round, 78th overall by the Flyers in 2021.

Even this season he had solid numbers in the top Russian league before he came over to join the Flyers organization.
