and could lay the groundwork for arguments by the Republican that a range of Biden’s actions as president were invalid.
The Suns traded for Beal — a three-time All-Star — and hired coach Frank Vogel during the ensuing offseason, but the group never seemed to gel. Phoenix was swept by the Minnesota Timberwolves in the opening round of the playoffs in 2024, leading to Vogel’s firing.Budenholzer replaced Vogel before last season, but the Suns didn’t even make it to the play-in tournament in 2025. Ott worked under Budenholzer as the Hawks’ video coordinator from 2013 to 2016.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Only six months into the job, Senate Majority Leader John Thune faces a massive challenge as he tries to quickly push President Donald Trump’s sprawlingto passage with the support of a divided GOP conference.While most Republican senators are inclined to vote for the bill, Thune can stand to lose only four votes in the face of united Democratic opposition — and many more Republicans than that are critical of the version
To get it done by July 4 — Trump’s deadline — Thune has to figure out how to balance theemerging from his members. And he has to do it in a way that doesn’t endanger Republican support in the House, which passed the legislation by only one vote last month after weeks of contentious negotiations.

“I just wanted to be open and share it,” she said. “One, because, selfishly, I do not talk about it enough. I’m not processing it because I’m working so hard. I also know how much sharing in the past has helped me with other people giving me their love and support and also their own stories. I’m an open book. It breaks my heart that so many people are going through so much similar and worse – that’s the bit that kills me.”Jessie J has long been celebrated for her robust soprano and R&B-informed pop hits, like the 2014 collaboration with
