Nottingham Forest striker Taiwo Awoniyi has reportedly been placed into an induced coma following "urgent" surgery for a serious abdominal injury suffered during a Premier League match over the weekend. Awoniyi collided with the post during Forest's 2-2 draw with Leicester City on Sunday but, despite being clearly hampered after the incident, remained on the pitch for the final 10 minutes of thegame. Forestsaid in a statement on Tuesdaythat the Nigerian striker was "recovering well" following surgery on a "serious abdominal injury." British media, including theBBCandSky Sports, reported that Awoniyi had been placed in an induced coma in hospital as part of the recovery process. When reached by CNN, Nottingham Forest pointed to its Tuesday statement and declined to comment further. Awoniyi sustained his injury as he tried to connect with a cross from Anthony Elanga.The 27-year-old stretched to make contact with the ball in an attempt to score, but in his efforts, collided with the frame of the goal; it later turned out that Elanga had been offside but the sideline official didn't raise their flag until after Awoniyi had struck the post. Awoniyi received lengthy treatment on thepitchafterwards but was deemed OK to continue – Forest made its final permitted substitution after Awoniyi signaled he was fit to remain playing – despite being in clear discomfort. According to Forest's Tuesday statement, the decision to allow Awoniyi to remain on the pitch after evaluation from medical staff is what sparked a heated discussion on the field between the club's owner, Evangelos Marinakis, and manager, Nuno Espírito Santo – an incident which had drawn criticism from pundits and social media – after the draw which left the club's Champions League qualification hopes in the balance. Espírito Santo said after the match that Marinakis was enquiring about the decision from the club's medical staff to allow Awoniyi to continue rather than anything related to the performance of the team. In Tuesday's sternly-worded statement, Forest dismissed comments that Marinakis had confronted Espírito Santo as "fake news." "The truth of the matter is there was no confrontation, with Nuno or with others, either on the pitch or inside the stadium," Forest said. "There was only shared frustration between all of us that the medical team should never have allowed the player to continue. "We urge former coaches and players, and other public figures in the game, to resist the urge to rush to judgement and fake news online, especially when they do not have the full facts and context." Forest called the reaction to Marinakis and Espírito Santo's on-field discussion "baseless and ill-informed outrage for the purposes of personal social media traction." Since joining Forest from Union Berlin in Germany in 2022, Awoniyi hasscored17 goals in 73 Premier League appearances for the club. For more CNN news and newsletters create an account atCNN.com

Tour de France final stage to feature Montmartre climb and Champs-Élysées finishNew Foto - Tour de France final stage to feature Montmartre climb and Champs-Élysées finish

PARIS (AP) — Tour de France riders will climb up the iconic Montmarte hill in Paris on the final stage this year before cycling's biggest race finishes on the Champs-Élysées, organizers said Wednesday, as they look to build on the popular success of the Olympic road race. Last year's final stage was held outside Paris for the first time since 1905 because of a clash with the Olympics, moving instead to Nice. Because of security and logistical reasons, the French capital did not have its traditional Tour finish on the Champs-Élysées. The world famous avenue is back on the program this year for the conclusion of the 3,320-kilometer (2,063-mile) race. "To mark the 50th anniversary of the first final finish on the Champs-Élysées, and one year after the excitement and cheers of the Paris 2024 Olympic road race, the peloton will return to the capital on a route that passes through the heights of Montmartre," organizers said. 500,000 spectators At last year's Olympics, huge crowds of fans gathered in Montmartre — the area in the northern part of Paris that is popular among artists and offers grand vistas of the city — to cheer on riders. "An exceptional route has been designed, inspired by the course of the 2024 Olympic road race, which drew over 500,000 spectators last August," Tour organizers said. "Riders will climb the Montmartre hill and pass beneath the Sacré-Coeur before battling it out on a stage that may break from the traditions established over the past 50 years in the heart of the capital." Traditionally, the Champs-Élysées stage is largely processional until a sprint decides the day's winner. The inclusion of the sharp Montmartre climb could change that scenario. Full details of the route will be presented at a news conference next week. The Tour starts from the northern city of Lille on July 5, with the women's race kicking off on July 26 from the Brittany town of Vannes. ___ AP sports:https://apnews.com/hub/sports

Trump announces plan to lift punishing sanctions on SyriaNew Foto - Trump announces plan to lift punishing sanctions on Syria

PresidentDonald Trumpannounced Tuesday that he plans to lift sanctions on Syria following last year's fall of the Assad regime, saying the move will "give them a chance at greatness." The removal of the sanctions is a significant win for the Syrian government led by Ahmed al-Sharaa, who seized power after the stunning defeat of the Assad regime in December. It is likely to be seen as a blow by the Israeli government, which escalated military and territorial advancements in Syria in the wake of the Assad collapse. Trump said in remarks to a Saudi investment forum in Riyadh that he made the decision after discussing with it Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, as well as with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. "Syria, they've had their share of travesty, war, killing in many years. That's why my administration has already taken the first steps toward restoring normal relations between the United States and Syria for the first time in more than a decade," he said. Secretary of State Marco Rubio is expected to meet with Syria's foreign minister in Turkey "later this week," Trump said. After decades of brutal rule, theAssad regime fellduring the Biden administration in December, and Syria's new leaders have hoped Trump would consider lifting thepunishing sanctionson the country. "The sanctions were brutal and crippling and served as an important — really an important function — nevertheless, at the time. But now it's their time to shine," Trump said. "So, I say, 'Good luck, Syria.' Show us something very special." Trump expressed hope that Syria's new government "will hopefully succeed in stabilizing the country in keeping peace." New Syrian President al-Sharaa previouslyfounded a militant groupknown asJabhat al-Nusra, or "the Victory Front" in English, which pledged allegiance to al Qaeda. But in 2016, he broke away from the terror group, according to the US Center for Naval Analyses. Trump met with Sharaa in Riyadh on Wednesday for a little over half hour — the highest-level engagement to date between the new Syrian government and the Trump administration. The US has not formally reestablished diplomatic ties or recognized the new government, but sources say there has been lower-level engagement. Syria's foreign minister, Asaad Al-Shaibani, welcomed the news of the US sanctions relief. "We see the lifting of sanctions as a new beginning on the path to reconstruction," he posted to X. "Thanks to the stances of our Arab brothers — foremost among them Saudi Arabia — we are opening a new chapter toward a future worthy of the Syrian people and their history." The UN's special envoy for Syria, Geir Pedersen, also welcomed the announcement, saying the lifting of sanctions is imperative to allow the delivery of essential services like health care and education and to revive the economy. The US move comes after the United Kingdom and European Union lifted some, but not all, of their sanctions on Syria earlier this year. On Capitol Hill, the top senators on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee — Republican Jim Risch and Democrat Jeanne Shaheen — had encouraged the move before Trump's trip. Shaheen said in a statement Tuesday she is "encouraged by the President's announcement to move expeditiously and am in touch with the State Department and NSC to make sure this long-awaited window of opportunity does not close for Syria." Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, a close Trump ally, offered a more reserved response. "I am very inclined to support sanctions relief for Syria under the right conditions. However, we must remember that the current leadership in Syria achieved its position through force of arms, not through the will of its people," the South Carolina lawmaker said. Graham, who said in a press release he had just arrived in Turkey, noted he has "been in close contact with Israel, as they are extremely concerned about the state of play in Syria." "During this trip, I will be discussing this matter with our allies in Turkey and will maintain extremely close coordination with our allies in Israel so that we can fully understand the implications of sanctions waivers," he said. Meanwhile, social media videos showed jubilant crowds in the main square of the city of Homs. People were seen wielding Syrian and Saudi Arabian flags as the crowd chanted: "Hail Saudi Arabia, hail Saudi Arabia! Hail Salman, hail Salman!" in apparent reference to the Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud. Another video from the city showed large crowds gathered outside as fireworks lit up the night sky overhead. "As a revolutionary Syrian, our ultimate goal is to rebuild our country," said Osaid Basha, who was celebrating in Homs. He thanked the US and said Trump's announcement "marks the first step toward recovery, and toward restoring Syria to its former state — or even better." "One of the key objectives of the revolution — toppling the regime — has already been achieved," he told CNN. "Now, the focus must be on moving the country forward." A video from the city of Latakia showed cars and motorcycles driving down the street, honking their horns as their passengers waved Syrian flags. The country's economy and trade minister, Mohammad Nidal al-Shaar, shed tears live on air with Saudi outlet Al Arabiya, as he underscored that Syria is "now entering a new phase." "Syria's revival is about to begin. We are heading toward an economic renaissance, now that the international community has reopened its doors to us," he said tearfully, stressing that the country's new government and investors are ready. "The Syrian people will soon enjoy an unprecedented level of relief and comfort," he cried. Natasha Hall, a senior fellow at the Center for Strategic and International Studies' Middle East Program, told CNN that in addition to the announcement marking a win for Sharaa, it is also a win for the Saudi crown prince. "(Trump) is saying this publicly to maybe reassure others that they have the tacit approval to give Syria a better opportunity, a shot, and so the optics of that are quite a big deal," Hall said. "Now if that is also met with some kind of public meeting between al-Sharaa and Trump, or even a secret meeting, this means that the United States is clearly taking steps in a direction to give Syria a chance to rebuild." Sharaa told Al Arabiya he expects the impact of the sanctions being lifted to begin as soon as the country is reinstated into SWIFT, a messaging service that connects financial institutions around the world. "Funds will start flowing in, initially from Syrians abroad, followed by supportive countries. The wheels of the economy will start turning, and trade and investment promises will begin to materialize, as the landscape is now open for investment," he said. The minister said the "path is now clear" for anyone who wants to invest in Syria and that this would, in turn, provide some financial relief to the country's citizens. This story has been updated with additional details. CORRECTION: This story has been corrected to reflect that crowds celebrating the US lifting of sanctions against Syria were cheering the Saudi king.

Johnson attempts to hold together fragile GOP coalition ahead of key committee votes on Trump agendaNew Foto - Johnson attempts to hold together fragile GOP coalition ahead of key committee votes on Trump agenda

House Republicans kicked off a blockbuster week forPresident Donald Trump's "one big, beautiful bill," as Speaker Mike Johnson attempts to stave off a revolt from any one faction of his conference that could tank the sweeping GOP agenda. As House lawmakers returned to Washington on Tuesday, key committees launched into debate on the bill that could last 24 hours or longer – marathon sessions that are expected to end in votes to move pieces of the legislation one step closer to full House consideration. Even with multiple hurdles still to go, House GOP leadership is confident they'll be on track to take up Trump's tax and spending cuts package in a floor vote by Memorial Day, a target that even some members of the GOP conference once described as overly ambitious. But there arewarning signsas Johnson and his leadership team are facing friction from both moderates and hardliners and sticking points over policy that have not yet been resolved. With a slim majority, the speaker will need almost complete unity in his conference to advance the bill – and many Republicans expect Trump will need to weigh in to deliver the votes. One of the biggest sticking points: A tax break that mostly benefits blue states and that conservatives detest but a half-dozen Republicans are demanding. That dispute boiled over in a meeting with Johnson and some of those GOP members on Tuesday night, with one lawmaker asking another to leave out of frustration with the talks, according to two people familiar with the discussions. Separately, debate was contentious at many points during a Medicaid-focused committee hearing. Capitol Police arrested 26 protesters for their interruptions. And at one point, the normally mild-mannered Energy and Commerce panel devolved into infighting over the word "lying" – requiring GOP Chairman Brett Guthrie to repeatedly interject. Democrats hammered Republicans for their planned tax cuts – which they say mostly help billionaires – and a planned overhaul to Medicaid. They argue that the GOP's attempt to add work requirements and rein in federal dollars to states that expanded Medicaid under Obamacare could cause even children and disabled Americans to lose coverage. Republicans, however, were adamant that only able-bodied adults would be affected by work requirements and that they would protect access for people with disabilities. Elsewhere in the Capitol, Johnson and his leadership team have tried to corral the rest of his conference behind the bill. The speaker, for instance, spoke with conservative hardliner Rep. Chip Roy of Texas, who has been publicly critical about what he sees as inadequate changes toMedicaid, among other issues. The speaker also met privately with the so-called SALT Caucus – a loose coalition of roughly a half-dozen Republicans from high-tax states like New York, New Jersey and California who have sought to repeal the 2017 deduction cap on state and local taxes. After a meeting with key holdouts on Tuesday night, Johnson said he believed a deal on the issue would come in the next day or so as they awaited key data from Congress' nonpartisan tax experts to help shape the policy. "It will probably be tomorrow, only because we need the joint tax people, the number crunchers, to do all of that work tonight, and we've asked them to do a lot," he said. "They're looking at different facts and figures, so I expect that the final analysis will be tomorrow." GOP tax-writers proposed to triple the current cap on state and local taxes, from $10,000 to $30,000 per year, but it is limited to people who are making $400,000 or less. That $30,000 cap, however, has been a nonstarter for those members. Tensions boiled over in a private meeting with Johnson on Tuesday night about the contentious policy. Inside the room, the so-called SALT caucus was discussing one possible policy change that would have lifted the state and local tax deduction cap to $40,000 per person and $80,000 per couple. Frustrations were high among those SALT caucus members, who have sought a much higher limit, to the consternation of many of their fellow Republicans. And GOP Rep. Nick LaLota booted fellow New York Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, a member of the GOP's tax-writing committee, out of the meeting as they negotiated a deal because she was on board with an earlier, lower number – the $30,000 per person limit that is included in the latest GOP tax proposal, the two people said. One of the people familiar said that Malliotakis hadn't been invited to that specific meeting with the speaker. A third person familiar with the matter, however, said the congresswoman had been informed of the meeting by the speaker and committee. That move left members of the House Ways and Means Committee fuming, the sources said, raising questions about how Johnson can reach a deal before next week when he hopes to bring the whole bill to the floor. In apost on Xon Tuesday night, LaLota called Malliotakis "my friend" and suggested she was "not involved" in the meeting. "That she wasn't involved in today's meeting is a function of her district's taxpayers requiring something different than mine and the other most SALTY five," he wrote. Punchbowl News first reported that Malliotakis was asked to leave the meeting. Earlier in the week, GOP Rep. Mike Lawler said he cannot back the sweeping bill to implement Trump's agenda until more favorable terms over the key tax break are negotiated in the proposal. "As I have said repeatedly, I will not support any bill that does not adequately lift the cap on SALT," Lawler told CNN on Monday. "This bill as written fails to deliver and will not have my support. I look forward to continuing to negotiate with leadership and the administration to provide real tax relief for my constituents." Further complicating matters: One of the GOP lawmakers who has stridently opposed the $30,000 cap is Rep. Elise Stefanik – a member of Johnson's leadership team. The GOP's sweeping legislative plans fulfill many of Trump's big campaign promises, including scrapping federal taxes on tips, on overtime pay and on car loan interest. It's a big win for Trump, as is the name of the bill — "The One, Big, Beautiful Bill," adopting the president's moniker for the legislation. As expected, the GOP plan also includes Trump's demand for a debt limit hike, which would cost a total of $4 trillion to punt the problem for another few years. Congress needs to raise the debt limitbefore its August recess to prevent defaultand Trump hopes to do so using this bill, rather than strike a deal with Democrats. The bill includes dozens of tax extensions from Trump's 2017 tax bill. There's also one relatively new idea – a so-called "MAGA" savings account for kids under 18 years old. It's short for "money account for growth and advancement," which would create a new, flexible type of tax-free savings account for kids. Once key committees take their final votes to advance the bills, the combined package will take another hurdle – the fiscally conservative House Budget Committee. That panel is expected to meet Friday, though nothing has yet been scheduled. Even after the committees advance their slices of the bill, there's one big question awaiting the GOP: How much everything will cost. Guthrie has told members that he believes his plan will reach the target of $880 billion in savings that Republicans called for in their budget resolution, and the congressional budget office confirmed it would in a letter Monday. But he has not yet said exactly how, because the panel is still awaiting key documents from the Congressional Budget Office that will help determine the bill's overall price tag. This story has been updated with additional developments. CNN's Morgan Rimmer, Haley Talbot and Manu Raju contributed to this report. For more CNN news and newsletters create an account atCNN.com

More than 100 lawmakers urge scrapping of federal plans to cut LGBTQ lifeline servicesNew Foto - More than 100 lawmakers urge scrapping of federal plans to cut LGBTQ lifeline services

More than 100 Congressional Democrats have signed a letter urging U.S. Health and Human Services SecretaryRobert F. Kennedy Jr.to scrub planned budget cuts that would eliminate crucial mental health services for LGBTQ+ youth, who face greatermental health challengesthan their peers. At stake are services offered through the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, which has fielded more than 13 million calls, texts and chats from across the U.S. and its territories since its inception. Created through a bipartisan measure signed into law by President Trump in 2020, the lifeline serves veterans and non-English speakers in addition to LGBTQ+ young people. Similar to calling 911, people looking for mental or emotional health support can call 988, with the further option of being directed to a counselor trained in LGBTQ+ youth support. Theproposed cuts, first reported byThe Washington Post, would slash the lifeline's LGBTQ+ youth services as part ofan HHS overhaul. The restructuring will consolidate the agency's 28 divisions into 15 divisions, including the newly created Administration for a Healthy America to implement Kennedy's "Make America Healthy Again" agenda. "Ending this mental health support for youth in distress would devastate a vital resource for some of our nation's most vulnerable young people,"the lawmakers' letterstated. "This shortsighted and dangerous plan undermines 988's ability to provide tailored support for a population with a higher risk of suicide and will have lethal consequences if enacted." The letter is signed by 109 members of Congress, including Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Massachusetts; Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi, D-Illinois; Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Michigan; and Rep. Mark Pocan, D-Wisconsin. "Mental health crises do not recognize partisan differences, and this is why support for 988 and its specialized services has always been firmly bipartisan," the representatives wrote. "…. We urge that you scrap this ill-advised plan. Our nation's children deserve nothing less." Their missive echoes a similar letter issuedon May 7by a group of Democratic senators including Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin, Jeff Merkley of Oregon and Elizabeth Warren and Edward Markey of Massachusetts. The proposed cuts, to take effect October 1, come as LGBTQ+ youth are experiencing a spike in mental health issues triggered by the Trump administration's heightened attacks on the community. The plan is stillin draft formand its final version will need Congressional approval. About 1.2 million of the 13 million calls, texts and chats received by the lifeline have been directed to its LGBTQ+ Youth Hotline. The frequency of those contacts has spiked over the last several months, according to The Trevor Project, one of seven federally funded contact centers that partner with the lifeline to offer specialized support for LGBTQ+ young people. According to the Trevor Project, a national organization focused on suicide prevention for LGBTQ+ young people, suicide is the second leading cause of death among those aged 10 to 14 and the third leading cause for those aged 15 to 24. LGBTQ+ young people are more than four times as likely to attempt suicide than their peers, and the project estimates more than 1.8 million LGBTQ+ young people in the U.S. seriously consider suicide annually. "Suicide prevention is about risk, not identity," said Jaymes Black, The Trevor Project's CEO. Ending the lifeline's specialized LGBTQ+ youth services, Black said, "will not just strip away access from millions of LGBTQ+ kids and teens. It will put their lives at risk." In response to the lawmakers' letter, a spokesperson for HHS' Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration noted that all 988 services currently remain available and unaltered. "The 988 Lifeline offers 24/7 call, text and chat access to skilled, caring crisis counselors who can help people experiencing suicidal, substance misuse, or mental health crises, or any other kind of emotional distress," the spokesperson said. "People can also call, text or chat 988 if they are worried about a loved one who may need crisis support. The 988 Lifeline is a direct connection to immediate support and resources for anyone in crisis." The national 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline and Veterans Crisis Linelaunched in July 2022to assist people experiencing mental health, substance use or suicidal crises. The service stemmed from the Federal Communications Commission's July 2020 adoption of 988 as a nationwide dialing code for people in crisis to connect with suicide prevention and mental health crisis counselors. Several months after the FCC action, President Donald Trump signed the National Suicide Hotline Designation Act of 2020, incorporating the 988 lifeline into law. "When Congress established the 988 lifeline, signed into law by President Trump during his first term, we intended it to be a resource foranyAmerican experiencing mental distress," the representatives' letter said. "To a young person feeling alone and scared, 988 is truly a lifeline." Community and mental health advocates agreed. Tom Milam, a psychiatrist who serves as chief medical officer for Iris Telehealth, which has a strong LGBTQ+ community presence, said the proposed cuts would likely compound the stresses already faced by overloaded behavioral health resources. Put off by long waitlists for outpatient behavioral health services, patients have increasingly turned to emergency rooms and urgent care centers for mental health and addiction treatment, he said. "988 has been a game-changer as a resource for people struggling with mental health and addiction issues," Milam said. Should that option cease to exist or experience extended hold times because of inadequate staffing, more patients will call 911 or seek emergency-room care – not only the costliest option, he said, but one with minimal access to quality mental health care. "We see hospitals and health systems doing the best they can to serve people in their community with mental health and addiction issues, but it is rarely enough," he said. Rachael Fried, executive director of Jewish Queer Youth, a New York-based mental health organization better known by the acronym JQY, said eliminating the life's LGBTQ+ services would contribute to "an even greater loss of hope." "The administration's proposal to cut services for LGBTQ youth through the 988 suicide and crisis hotline will have devastating and deadly consequences," she said. Black, of the Trevor Project, noted a 2024 Trevor Project survey that found that 40% of LGBTQ+ young people had seriously considered suicide in the past year, while 12% had attempted it. "We urge Congress to defend its establishment of this data-based, bipartisan program to allow its life-saving services to continue for generations to come," they said. "We do not have to agree on every policy issue to agree that every young life is worth saving." If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, help is available.

When Is "The Rookie" Season 8 Coming Out? What We Know So Far About John Nolan's Next Chapter

Disney/Mike Taing The Rookieis still on duty. The ABC police procedural — which aired its season 7 finale on May 13 — first premiered in 2018 but remains popular years later. In February, the series had its best three-week audience in nearly five years, perABC. That same month,The Rookie"scored a new all-time high for episode views" on Hulu. Even after seven seasons, playing Los Angeles cop John Nolan remains fun forNathan Fillion. "What's great is that, though he's seven seasons into this new job, the job itself is not a static job. You don't go in to do the same thing every day," he toldTV Guidein March 2025. "Every time a call comes in, it could be something goofy and hilarious, [or] it could be something life altering and dangerous." He continued, "So you never know what's going to happen next, and every single situation is a learning situation." What's ahead might be a surprise for Nolan, but what about the future ofThe Rookieitself? Here's everything we know so far about season 8 ofThe Rookie. Disney/Mike Taing Yes,The Rookiehas been renewed for season 8,The Hollywood Reporterreported in May. The Rookiewas one of the seven scripted shows ABC announced would return for the 2025-2026 schedule. The other series include9-1-1,Abbott Elementary,High Potential,Grey's Anatomy,Shifting GearsandWill Trent. A9-1-1, spinoff,9-1-1: Nashville, was also given a straight-to-series order. Disney/Mike Taing No official cast announcement has been made forThe Rookieseason 8. That said, Fillion has appeared in all 144 episodes and serves as an executive producer, so it's likely he will sign on again. Other actors inThe Rookieseason 7 ensemble includeEric Winter, Melissa O'Neil, Richard T. Jones,Alyssa Diaz, Mekia Cox,Shawn Ashmore,Jenna Dewanand Lisseth Chavez. After the season 8 renewal announcement, Fillion posted a heartfelt message onInstagram, shouting-out creator Alexi Hawley. "I've been around long enough to know how truly challenging and rare it is to have a long running show," he wrote. "Thank you all for sticking around for these 7 seasons. It's because of you that we are announcing season 8!! Congratulations to @alexihawley and the wonderful team that puts this show together. I am so very proud to work alongside all of you. Let's do this!" Cox also shared the renewal news on herInstagramwith the message, "Guess who's comin back for a Season 8!!!!!" Disney/Mike Taing A premiere date forThe Rookieseason 8 has not been revealed. Still, season 7 premiered midseason in January 2025 and it looks like the upcoming set of episodes might follow the same schedule. "RookieandWill Trentis a repeat of the extraordinarily successful schedule we had last season," said Craig Erwich, president of the Disney Television Group, said in May, perDeadline. "When we start in January, we're able to run all of the episodes straight through, and it creates this kind of momentum." In the same announcement, Erwich indicated thatThe RookieandWill Trentwould be returning to their current Tuesday night slot, explaining that it "has become really a must-see destination night of television for our viewers." WhenThe Rookiecomes back, it will be for an uninterrupted 18-episode run, perTVLine. Disney/Mike Taing In a May 2025 interview withCollider, Hawley revealed that the writers were already working on season 8. In the penultimate episode of season 7, L.A. Assistant District Attorney Sean Del Monte (Michael Trucco) stepped down from the D.A. race, a plot that Hawley revealed will most likely continue next season. "I'm a little allergic to politics, just as storytelling, because I don't find it that interesting on narrative TV," Hawley toldDeadlinein May 2025. "But I think we found a way in to keep that storyline going in Season 8. It's early days but that's not the end of that storytelling." In the same episode, Pete Nolan — the character played byPete Davidsonin seasons 2 and 4 — was mentioned. While Davidson wasn't seen, he could return in season 8. "Pete Davidson is someone we're desperate to get back, and he loves doing the show," Hawley said to the outlet. "Hopefully in Season 8 we can get Pete back, that would be great." One plot that has apparently come to an end is Nolan (Fillion) and Bailey Nune's (Dewan) trying to adopt. The couple's application was denied due to the danger of their line of work, and whenScreenRantasked Hawley if the storyline had come to a close, he responded, "I think it has." "[It's] the reality of their unique situation. But I think they've come through it and, for now at least, have made their peace with [the fact] that it's just the two of them," he explained.

Peace with Sinner: Tennis fan Pope Leo XIV meets with top-ranked player during Italian Open off-dayNew Foto - Peace with Sinner: Tennis fan Pope Leo XIV meets with top-ranked player during Italian Open off-day

VATICAN CITY (AP) —Pope Leo XIVhas apparently made peace with Jannik Sinner. The top-ranked tennis player visited the new pope on Wednesday, gave him a tennis racket and offered to play, during an off day for Sinner at the Italian Open, the Vatican said. Leo, the first American pope, is an avid tennis player and fan and had said earlier this week that he would be up for a charity match when it was suggested by a journalist. But at the time, Leo joked "but we can't invite Sinner," an apparent reference to the English meaning of Sinner's last name. Sinner said it was "a good thing for us tennis players" thatthe new pope likes to play the sport. The top-ranked player has a quarterfinal match on Thursday in his first tournament back after a three-month ban for doping that was judged to be an accidental contamination. Sinner will next face either freshly crowned Madrid champion Casper Ruud or Jaume Munar. Sinner is attempting to become the first Italian man to win the Rome title since Adriano Panatta in 1976. ___ Associated Press religion coverage receives support through the AP'scollaborationwith The Conversation US, with funding from Lilly Endowment Inc.

US health chief Kennedy to face lawmakers' questions on mass firings, measlesNew Foto - US health chief Kennedy to face lawmakers' questions on mass firings, measles

By Ahmed Aboulenein WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will testify before Congress on Wednesday for the first time since taking the role of U.S. health secretary, and will face questions over the firing of thousands of health agency employees and a fast-growing measles outbreak. Kennedy will testify before both the House of Representatives Appropriations Committee on his department's proposed budget for the 2026 fiscal year, and the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee. Since he was confirmed as Secretary of Health and Human Services in February, Kennedy has slashed jobs at the nation's top food and drugs regulator, public health agency and biomedical research institute, part of the Trump administration's campaign to shrink the federal workforce. Kennedy says his top priorities as health secretary include identifying the environmental contributors to autism and tackling rising rates of chronic disease. Kennedy, who for years has sown doubt over the safety and efficacy of vaccines, has also drawn condemnation from health officials for what they say is a weak endorsement of measles shots during an outbreak that has infected more than 1,000, mostly unvaccinated, people and killed three. His confirmation partially hinged on the vote of HELP Committee Republican Chair Senator Bill Cassidy, a doctor from Louisiana who had expressed wariness about Kennedy's history of anti-vaccine views before clearing the path for his appointment. Cassidy said at the time he ultimately supported the nomination because Kennedy assured him he would protect vaccine access and promised cooperation with his committee. Cassidy had called on Kennedy to appear before the committee in early April to explain plans to restructure HHS and lay off 10,000 workers. The hearing on Wednesday is billed as a session on Kennedy's health-related spending plans under President Donald Trump's budget proposal. The plans include an $18 billion cut to National Institutes of Health funding and $3.6 billion from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "People instinctively fear change, even when it's from worse to better. But without a clearly defined plan or objective, people will assume the worst," Cassidy will tell Kennedy at the hearing, according to prepared remarks shared by his office. "Much of the conversation around HHS' agenda has been set by anonymous sources in the media and individuals with a bias against the president," Cassidy will say. "Americans need direct reassurance from the administration, from you Mr. Secretary, that its reforms will make their lives easier, not harder." Kennedy will be sharing updates on his efforts to eliminate redundancies and improve efficiency at HHS, as well as tackle chronic disease, a department spokesperson said. In the past week, Kennedy has faced attacks on social media from influential far-right activist Laura Loomer, whose critiques of some other Trump administration officials have preceded their ouster. Kennedy also drew scrutiny for his own photos on social media showing him swimming with his grandchildren in Washington's Rock Creek. The National Park Service prohibits swimming in Rock Creek because it contains dangerously high bacteria levels. (Reporting by Ahmed Aboulenein; Editing by Michele Gershberg and Bill Berkrot)

In Tesla's wake, more big companies propose voting "Dexit" to depart Delaware

By Tom Hals WILMINGTON, DEL. (Reuters) -In the coming weeks, investors in nine public companies worth at least $1 billion each will vote on proposals to ditch Delaware as their place of incorporation, potentially denting the state's longtime reputation as Corporate America's capital, Reuters has found. Five companies with a stock market value of at least $1 billion have moved their legal home out of Delaware since last year, in what some have nicknamed "Dexit." Tesla made a high-profile move to Texas last year and in April, President Donald Trump's social media company Trump Media & Technology, which owns the Truth Social platform, decamped to Florida. Most of the companies are dominated by a significant shareholder or founder. Delaware judges have expanded the court's most stringent legal standard to a growing range of situations involving controllers, increasing the risk of shareholder lawsuits. The decisions culminated with the blockbuster ruling last year that rescinded Musk's $56 billion pay package from Tesla. Less than an hour after the ruling, Musk said on X: "Never incorporate your company in the state of Delaware." Musk's SpaceX and Tesla soon reincorporated in Texas. Musk did not respond to a request for comment. Trump Media, which is controlled by a trust that owns shares on behalf of President Trump and is overseen by his oldest son, said in its March proxy statement that Delaware's "increasingly litigious environment facing corporations with controlling stockholders has created unpredictability in decision-making." The company cited the Musk pay ruling as an example. It is now incorporated in Florida. Dropbox and The Trade Desk, which each has a large shareholder, and Cannae Holdings have moved their charter to Nevada from Delaware. They did not respond to a request for comment. Among the companies set to vote on proposals to leave are Simon Property Group, which is seeking shareholder approval on Wednesday to reincorporate in Indiana, and gaming platform Roblox, which wants to move to Nevada. Unlike many of the other companies that have proposed a "Dexit," Simon does not have a controlling shareholder. It declined to comment on its reasons for proposing a move, referring to its latest proxy statement. Roblox said that Nevada law provides greater predictability. To be sure, the share of Delaware-based companies in the Russell 3000 index, which covers nearly all public companies, continues to grow, rising to 62% last year from 56% in 2020, according to ISS-Corporate. However, 2024 was the first year that more companies in the Russell Index left Delaware than moved their incorporation to the state. "On the Richter scale, it's not that high," said Benjamin Edwards, a professor at the UNLV School of Law, of the changes. "But it's still shaking the ground." FEARING AN EXODUS Delaware, which has no sales tax, gets around a third of its general budget revenue from fees and taxes related to chartering businesses. Fearing an exodus of companies leaving after the judicial rulings, the state enacted legislation in March that limits the role of the state's judges in reviewing certain corporate deals. It also limited the scope of so-called "books and records" requests, a legal tool often used by shareholder attorneys to try to obtain directors' emails and texts. Despite the recent changes, corporate law in Delaware remains relatively strict when it comes to insiders making deals that would likely benefit them directly, such as a deal to buy assets from a controlling shareholder or Musk and his Tesla pay arrangement, legal experts said. "That's one area where Delaware has consistently said, 'Look, we're going to kick the tires of those decisions with a little bit extra force'," said Eric Talley, a professor at Columbia Law School. Delaware law typically requires a company that strikes a deal with a controlling shareholder to prove the arrangement met a strict standard showing the price and process were fair, unless it was negotiated by independent directors or approved by shareholders. In Nevada, the same controlling shareholder deal would likely be protected by a legal standard known as the business judgment rule, which shields against lawsuits, regardless of how it was negotiated and approved, legal experts said. Talley said Nevada directors are protected unless they engage in fraud. "It's actually okay to engage in self-dealing, as long as you don't lie about it," he said. A state's corporate law governs a company's relationship with shareholders and typically does not affect legal rights of employees or consumers. In Texas, where Tesla and SpaceX are now incorporated, lawmakers last week approved amendments to its corporate law that are aimed at reducing the threat of shareholder litigation, in part by allowing companies to set stock ownership thresholds for lawsuits. The plaintiff in the Musk pay case owned just nine shares when he filed suit in 2018. Governor Greg Abbott has not signed the bill and his office did not respond to a request for comment. Eric Lentell, the general counsel at Delaware-chartered Archer Aviation, said the aircraft developer is considering reincorporating in Texas and believes directors of other public companies should reconsider Delaware. After a Delaware judge refused last year to recognize a vote by Tesla investors to reinstate Musk's pay, Lentell said it signaled that Delaware judges "have become kind of activist in nature" by appearing to rewrite settled law. "I think that's where people get nervous," he said. (Reporting by Tom Hals in Wilmington, Delaware; editing by Amy Stevens, Noeleen Walder and Anna Driver )

Māori lawmakers who performed a protest haka receive temporary bans from New Zealand's ParliamentNew Foto - Māori lawmakers who performed a protest haka receive temporary bans from New Zealand's Parliament

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — Three New Zealand lawmakers from Te Pāti Māori, the Māori Party, will receive temporary bans from Parliament and severe censure, it was announced Wednesday, over their protest of a proposed law byperforming a haka, a chanting dance of challenge, directed at their opponents. A committee of their peers recommended the penalties, understood to be the harshest ever assigned to New Zealand parliamentarians, in findings that said the trio's actions could have intimidated other legislators and were in contempt of Parliament. Their temporary suspensions are expected to be affirmed by vote during a sitting of all lawmakers on Thursday. The decision means that Hana-Rāwhiti Maipi-Clarke, who at 22 is currently New Zealand's youngest lawmaker, will be suspended from Parliament for seven days. The co-leaders of her political party, Rawiri Waititi and Debbie Ngarewa-Packer, face 21-day bans. They won't receive salaries during their suspensions. The ruling is the latest twist in a fraught national saga over a bill,now defeated, that opponents said would reverse decades of progress for Māori, New Zealand's Indigenous people, and provoke constitutional havoc. Why were the Māori lawmakers suspended? Video of the legislators in full cry drew millions of views on social media and global news headlines last November. The bill they opposed was vanquished at a second vote in April. However, some lawmakers from the center-right government objected to the Māori Party legislators' protest during the first vote and complained to parliament's speaker. At issue was the way the trio walked across the floor of the debating chamber towards their opponents while they performed the haka. "It is not acceptable to physically approach another member on the floor of the debating chamber," Wednesday's report said, adding that the behavior could be considered intimidating. The committee denied the legislators were being punished for the haka — which is a beloved and sacred cultural institution in New Zealand life, but "the time at and manner in which it was performed" during a vote, according to the findings. The committee deciding the fate of the lawmakers is comprised of members from all political parties. The government's opponents disagreed with parts or all of the decision but were overruled. How did the suspended legislators respond? The three legislators didn't appear before the committee when summoned in April because they said New Zealand's parliament doesn't respect Māori cultural protocol and they wouldn't get a fair hearing. "The process was grossly unjust, unfair, and unwarranted, resulting in an extreme sanction," Māori party spokesperson and lawmaker Mariameno Kapa-Kingi said in a statement Wednesday. "This was not about process, this became personal." Waititi and Ngarewa-Packer, the leaders of the minor party that advocates Māori rights and holds six of Parliament's 123 seats, have for weeks lambasted the committee's process as intolerant of Māori principles and identity. The pair received more severe sanctions than Maipi-Clarke because the younger lawmaker had written a letter of "contrition" to the committee, the report said. Why did a proposed law provoke the protest? The controversial Principles of the Treaty of Waitangi Bill sought to redefine New Zealand's founding document, the 1840 pact between the British Crown and Māori tribal leaders signed during New Zealand's colonization. The English and Māori language versions of the treaty differed and the Crown immediately began to breach both, resulting in mass land thefts and generations of disenfranchisement for Māori, who remain disadvantaged on almost every metric. But in recent decades, Māori protest movements have wrought growing recognition of the Treaty's promises in New Zealand's law, politics and public life. That produced billion-dollar land settlements with tribes and strategies to advance Indigenous language and culture. Such policies were the target of the bill, drawn up by a minor libertarian party who denounced what they said was special treatment for Māori as they tried to rewrite the treaty's promises. The bill was never expected to become law – and it didn't. But public uproar about it led to the lawmakers haka in Parliament last November. Days later, tens of thousands of New Zealandersmarched on Parliamentto oppose it in the largest race relations protest in the country's history.

Angel City's Savy King has heart surgery following on-field collapseNew Foto - Angel City's Savy King has heart surgery following on-field collapse

Angel City defender Savy King was recovering from heart surgery following her collapse on the field during a National Women's Soccer League match on Friday night. King was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles following themedical event in the second half of Angel City's match against the Utah Royals.Doctors who evaluated King discovered a heart abnormality, and she underwent surgery Tuesday. "She is now resting and recovering surrounded by her family, and her prognosis is excellent," the team said in a statement. King's family released a joint statement thanking the team's medical staff, King's fellow players and the hospital medical staff for her care. "On behalf of our entire family, along with Savy, we have been so moved by the love and support from Angel City players, staff, fans and community, as well as soccer fans across the country," the statement said. "We are blessed to share Savy is recovering well and we are looking forward to having her home with us soon." Players on both sides were visibly shaken as trainers rushed to King's side aftershe went down in the 74th minute of Friday's match.She was attended to for some 10 minutes before she was stretchered off the field on a cart. Angel City said King was transported to the hospital but was responsive and undergoing further evaluation. "We are grateful to the Angel City medical staff as well as to local paramedics who handled this difficult situation seamlessly," the NWSL said in a statement on Saturday. In an Instagram story, Washington Spirit national team forward Trinity Rodman offered prayers for King and her family, adding: "In no world should that game have continued." The league said in its statement that it would review its policies to determine if changes needed to be made. NWSL rules for 2025 state that the league "recognizes that emergencies may arise which make the start or progression of a Game inadvisable or dangerous for participants and spectators. Certain event categories automatically trigger the League Office into an evaluation of whether delay or postponement is necessary." There were 12 minutes of stoppage time added to the match. Angel City won the game 2-0. King, 20, was the second overall pick in the 2024 NWSL draft by expansion Bay FC and played 18 games for the club. She was traded to Angel City in February and had started in all eight games for the team this season. ___ AP soccer:https://apnews.com/hub/soccer

Starts at 9 a.m. ET (1300 GMT). Where is the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix taking place? The Imola circuit — officially the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari — is a narrow, old-school circuit which is a favorite with many drivers. It's a venue with a history of tragedy after three-time F1 champion Ayrton Senna and Austrian driver Roland Ratzenberger were both killed during the 1994 race weekend. Italy is the only country other than the United States with more than one race on the 2025 F1 calendar. The Italian Grand Prix name belongs to Monza, which hosts in September, so this week's race is named after the Emilia-Romagna region. Imola is in the last year of its contract. What happened in the last race? Oscar Piastri extended his standings lead with his third win in a row, taking victory at the Miami Grand Prix. That came after his teammate and title rival Lando Norris went head-to-head with defending champion Max Verstappen and ran off track. Norris had taken valuable points a day earlier by winning the sprint race. What do I need to know about F1 so far? Get caught up: —Oscar Piastri wins at Miami for 3rd straight F1 victory, 4th win of season for championship leader —Franco Colapinto is back in F1 with Alpine after the team dropped Jack Doohan —Alpine team principal Oliver Oakes' resignation came days after police charged brother —Ferrari frustration mounts as Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc struggle at Miami Grand Prix —Cadillac F1 makes its entrance as official team at Miami Grand Prix as questions swirl about lineup Key stats at Imola 6 — The win in Miami was the sixth of Piastri's career, taking him past teammate Norris' five career victories. It's Piastri's third season in F1, and Norris is in his seventh year. 4 — Piastri can become the first Australian to win four F1 races in a row since Jack Brabham in 1966. 2 — Franco Colapinto has been a mid-season replacement twice now in F1, first with Williams last year and now with Alpine, replacing Pierre Gasly. Just like in 2024, his first race of the year is in Italy. What they're saying "I've got good momentum behind me and I'm extremely focused heading into this first race of the European swing of the season." — Oscar Piastri. "I am very excited to be going into race week for the first time since December. I am very grateful for this opportunity and now I have to get up to speed and showcase what I am capable of doing in the car." — Franco Colapinto. ___ AP auto racing:https://apnews.com/hub/auto-racing

An NBA star was named 'most overrated' by his peers. He's having the last laughNew Foto - An NBA star was named 'most overrated' by his peers. He's having the last laugh

Tyrese Haliburton arrived for a photoshoot in a Las Vegas casino last summer holding onto a pair of silver-tipped cowboy boots and a grudge. Before the Indiana Pacers guard slipped into a denim outfit and in front of a magazine's camera, he rattled off all he was grateful for: consecutive appearances at the league's All-Star game, a contract that would pay him an average of about $52 million annually, and an invitation to play for the United States in the Paris Olympics. Yet what Haliburton seemedespeciallythankful for was something else entirely — a perceived criticism that "everybody thinks my success in the first half of last season was a fluke," he said. For a player who had gone from effectively being cut from his teenaged travel squad to an NBA All-Star in less than a decade while fueled by collecting slights, it might as well have been like being handed a gift. "I'm at my best," Haliburtontold me then, "when people are talking s--- about me." One year later, the NBA is learning that still holds true. Since being named the NBA's "most overrated" player in April by an anonymous vote of his peers,as polled by The Athletic, Haliburton has authored a revenge tour that has landed Indiana in the Eastern Conference Finals for a second consecutive season. The Pacers are now four wins away from their first appearance in the NBA Finals in 25 years. As Haliburton was making all five 3-pointers he attempted in the second quarter of Tuesday's Game 5 against Cleveland — en route to 31 points in the series-clinching victory that knocked out the Eastern Conference's top seed — none less than LeBron James referenced, and refuted, the overrated label. Haliburton has appeared to relish getting the last laugh. After hearing chants of "overrated" in Milwaukee during a first-round series Haliburton, who grew up in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, won the series by driving past Giannis Antetokounmpo, one of the NBA's toughest defenders, for a basket with a second remaining in overtime. He celebrated with a post on X for emphasis. Of the 90 players who voted for most overrated in The Athletic's poll, 14.4 percent chose Haliburton, or about 13 players overall in a league of 450. It could have followed Haliburton's markedly slow start to the season as he struggled to play through injury. Still, the poll followed expletive-laden criticismon a podcastfrom Hall of Fame point guard Tim Hardaway Sr., who said Haliburton "thinks he's all that." The sentiments from players both active and retired, though pointed, were hardly universal. But they were all Haliburton needed, said Bryan Johnikin, who coached Haliburton as a teenager on a Milwaukee-based AAU team and remains close to the guard. He has watched Haliburton's heroics help Indiana beat Milwaukee, then take down Cleveland, with little surprise. "I'm not, personally, because as soon as I know they called him overrated or said he don't belong, it really motivates him," Johnikin said. Johnikin met the guard when Haliburton was 14 years old and wounded after learning his former AAU team wasn't keen on him to return. It was Johnikin's role as Haliburton's new coach, he said, to understand what motivated the point guard. Being passed over for Wisconsin's "Mr. Basketball" honor, awarded to the state's top high schooler, did the trick. So did arriving for college at Iowa State as a relatively low-level recruit and leaving it as a much-debated draft prospect in part because of the low release of his jump shot. What those evaluations perhaps missed was Haliburton's ability to think his way through a problem, Johnikin said. Knowing pace of play typically drops from the regular season to the playoffs, Indiana has done the opposite, running at the postseason's third-fastest pace. "I guarantee you, if you put everybody that's in the playoffs, put them in the classroom, he's gonna be the smartest guy," Johnikin said. Haliburton has averaged 17.5 points, 9.3 assists and 5.5 rebounds in the playoffs, where the Pacers are 17 points better per 100 possessions with Haliburton on the court versus when he sits; no Indiana teammate has a higher on/off rating. "Hali, that boy he making a lot of people look crazy with that 'overrated' s---," former NBA player Dorell Wrightsaid on a podcast with Dwyane Wade this week. "We need a recount." "His game don't look like you expect it to, right?" Wade said. "He's got an unorthodox form ... he ain't going to be top 10 in the league in scoring, but he's still going to dominate the game." Among NBA superstars Haliburton, who runs a YouTube channel in which he plays video games against his brother and prefers mid-sized Indianapolis to the league's shinier, big-city markets, has a notably placid personality. Yet as a devoted fan since childhood of professional wrestling and its theatrics, he is also quick to embrace the villainous role of the "heel." In addition to his breakout NBA season, and earning an Olympic gold medal in 2024, one of Haliburton's personal highlights last year was being written into a skit during WWE Smackdown, in which he and New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson stared one another down. (In real life, the two are friends.) These playoffs have felt like a long, extended stare-down with the rest of the league. Haliburton followed his series-winning comeback against Milwaukee by stunning Cleveland with a game-winning 3-pointer to cap another improbable comeback in Game 2. Research by ESPN found that since 1998, teams were 3-1,640 when trailing by seven or more points in the final minute of the fourth quarter or overtime. In this postseason alone,Indiana accounts for two of those three wins. "I think there is always commentary behind what I do, positive or negative, and I mean it's hilarious because a lot of times it's people who know nothing about me have so much to say," Haliburton said after a second-round victory. "It's usually people who don't come around or don't spend any time around me that have the most to say, but that's all part of it. I'm a basketball player, I love what I do. "... I feel like criticism is sometimes warranted, sometimes it's not but it's all a part of it." Last year, during warmups before Game 7 of a second-round series against New York in Madison Square Garden, Haliburton noticed a specific fan he heard making critical comments and became determined to make him a one-fan motivational tool, turning to glare at the fan after every basket. The Pacers won, and it reinforced to Johnikin a strategy that could be worth every postseason penny in the Eastern Conference Finals — where they could face the Knicks or Boston Celtics — and possibly the NBA Finals. Indiana should "just pay people to sit in the front row and just talk crazy to Ty, because that's when he gets going," Johnikin said. "I'm not worried about him when he goes to New York. Spike Lee and the rest of them talking crazy, he loves that. I call it the 'it factor.' "If you talk crazy to Tyrese he's gonna go, for sure."

FDA upheaval pushes some biotech firms to plan early trials out of USNew Foto - FDA upheaval pushes some biotech firms to plan early trials out of US

By Maggie Fick LONDON (Reuters) -Some U.S. biotech companies are considering moving early-stage trials of new medicines outside the United States as worry grows that layoffs and policy changes at the drugs watchdog under the Trump administration may delay regulatory reviews, executives, investors, and consultants told Reuters. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is seen as the global gold standard for drug regulation and companies typically seek American approval first because it provides access to the world's most lucrative drug market. But mass layoffs, leadership exits and the restructuring of the FDA under President Donald Trump are prompting some smaller biotechs to rethink traditional pathways for bringing new medicines to market. Reuters spoke to seven biotech executives, investors, and consultants who said that the staff departures and policy changes at the FDA had prompted some firms to consider launching trials in other international markets - such as the European Union and Australia - and engaging with regulators in those regions earlier in the drug development process. "We know that across our companies, the discussions include whether to go ex-U.S. because of recent FDA uncertainty," said Peter Kolchinsky, managing partner at RA Capital, a major investor in early-stage biotech firms and publicly traded companies with approximately $9 billion in assets under management. The FDA did not respond to a request for comment. U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has said that the agency's restructuring aims to streamline functions such as IT and communications, and reduce conflicts of interest among its staff and advisors. Consultant Matthew Weinberg of ProPharma Group said his firm is fielding more inquiries from biotech companies about preparing filings with the European Medicines Agency and setting up clinical trials - a shift he attributes to growing concerns about FDA stability. "Historically, companies went to the U.S. first. That may be changing," he said. It is unclear if biotech companies' increasing engagement with the EMA marks a real shift or a tactic to pressure the FDA, given the importance of the U.S. market, a source with knowledge of the matter told Reuters. An EMA spokesperson said it has not seen an increase in scientific advice requests or clinical trial applications, noting it would be early for any such shifts to be reflected in submissions. NEW APPROACHES A loss of confidence in the FDA could reshape drug development, reduce U.S. leadership in innovation, and increase costs for the struggling biotech sector, five of those interviewed said. "What's happening has forced all of us to discuss other approaches," said Sabrina Martucci Johnson, CEO of Dare Bioscience, a San Diego-based women's health biotech worth $25 million that received FDA approval in 2021 for its first product. "We are definitely looking at Europe first for certain products where the need is great and the U.S. regulatory path has become more uncertain or slower." Trump on Monday signed an executive order directing drugmakers to lower the prices of their medicines in line with other countries.  Commenting on the executive order, Swiss drugmaker Roche on Tuesday said it is concerned that the order "will undermine the U.S.' position as the world's leading pharmaceutical and healthcare ecosystem." Some biotech executives spoke about early-stage testing on condition of anonymity to avoid drawing attention to their companies or risking retribution for criticising the Trump administration. One biotech CEO said their company plans to seek approval from the EMA to run early-stage clinical trials of its oncology treatment in three European countries - in addition to the trial of the same treatment it launched in the U.S. last October. The expanded European strategy will cost about $1 million in additional filings, consultants, and contract research organisation support - plus several million more to run the trials. "We cannot just hope that things will turn around and that the cuts at the FDA will not have any impact on our business," the executive said. "The irony of this is it goes against the grain of 'America First', because we are offshoring away from the U.S. over to Europe." SLOWER BUT STABLE Another U.S. biotech told Reuters it opted to run two early-stage trials in Australia this month rather than in the U.S. Although some small biotechs had already started to conduct their first in-human trials outside the U.S., particularly in Australia where it is 30% to 40% cheaper, the biotech CEO said that in their firm's case, the decision was driven by FDA staffing cuts and uncertainty. A third biotech CEO said at least two members of the eight-person FDA team reviewing its early-stage trial for an mRNA rare disease therapy have left. They worry this turnover could delay FDA review of trial data. When asked about the impact of shifts at the FDA during earnings calls this month, executives from several big pharma companies including GSK, Merck & Co and Sanofi said they had so far not experienced any changes in their interactions with the regulator. Companies typically file for regulatory approval in the U.S. first to gain access to a market worth approximately $635 billion annually. Even a month or two delay in a regulatory step with the FDA could be existential, said the biotech CEO with the mRNA rare disease therapy. Executives stressed they still intend to run late-stage trials in the U.S. to launch products there. "Europe has been perceived as a little slower, but it has benefited -- and is benefiting now -- from being stable," said Owen Smith, a partner at 4BIO Capital, a London-based venture capital firm that invests in early-stage biotech companies.

Canadian PM criticises UK's invite to Trump for state visitNew Foto - Canadian PM criticises UK's invite to Trump for state visit

By Sarah Young LONDON (Reuters) - Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has criticised Britain's invitation to Donald Trump for a second state visit, saying it undermined his government's effort to project a united front against the U.S. president's talk of annexing Canada. Since taking office in January, Trump has repeatedly said he wants Canada to become the 51st U.S. state, a suggestion that has angered Canadians and left Britain trying to tread a fine line between the two North American countries. Britain's King Charles is also head of state of Canada, a former British colony, and the monarch has made a number of symbolic gestures in recent months, wearing Canadian medals, planting a maple tree and referring to himself as the king of Canada. Charles, who is still undergoing cancer treatment, is also due to attend Canada's state opening of parliament on May 27, the first time a British monarch has attended the event in Ottawa since 1977. Carney, in an interview with Sky News, was asked about British Prime Minister Keir Starmer's move in February to use his visit to the Oval Office to hand Trump an invitation from the monarch for an unprecedented second state visit to London. "I think, to be frank, they (Canadians) weren't impressed by that gesture... given the circumstance. It was at a time when we were being quite clear about the issues around sovereignty," he said. Carney, who won a party race to become prime minister in March before he secured victory in Canada's election last month by vowing to stand up Trump, said Charles's presence in Canada later this month was by design. "All issues around Canada's sovereignty have been accentuated by the president. So no, it's not coincidental, but it is also a reaffirming moment for Canadians," he said. Starmer, who is trying to improve trading ties with the U.S. after Britain left the European Union, has sought to play to its strengths when dealing with Trump, talking up its security expertise, pledging higher defence spending, and offering the pomp and pageantry that comes with a state visit. Trump, whose mother was born in Britain and who has repeatedly praised the British royal family, agreed a limited bilateral trade agreement with London this month. Asked about Carney's criticism, senior British minister Pat McFadden told Sky News that every country had to decide how to conduct its relations with other countries.

Jokic's 44 points, 15 rebounds not enough as Thunder top Nuggets to go up 3-2 in West semisNew Foto - Jokic's 44 points, 15 rebounds not enough as Thunder top Nuggets to go up 3-2 in West semis

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Nikola Jokic was nearly unstoppable against Oklahoma City's gritty, aggressive defense. The Thunder made a valiant effort to disrupt him, as they have all series. Denver's superstar center still had 44 points and 15 rebounds on Tuesday night. He made 17 of 25 shots, with many of them closely contested. It wasn't enough.Oklahoma City beat Denver 112-105, and now the Nuggets will return home trailing their Western Conference semifinal series 3-2 and facing elimination in Game 6 on Thursday. Jokic said Oklahoma City still played the same kind of defense that bothered him in Games 2 through 4, when he shot just 33% from the field and 18.2% from 3-point range. He again mostly dealt with 7-foot-1 Chet Holmgren, 7-footer Isaiah Hartenstein and the rugged, energetic Jaylin Williams. To Jokic, the difference was simple. "The ball is going in," he said. "They were still doing what they're doing." Jokic made 8 of 13 shots and scored 19 points in the first half. "He made the touch shots around the rim that seemed like hadn't been going his way lately, which is surprising because he's been so good at it for so long," Denver interim coach David Adelman said. "Once he saw those go in, it just kind of unleashed everything else." But Jokic's teammates struggled. Jamal Murray scored 28 points but made just 10 of 27 shots. Aaron Gordon scored 13 points. No other Nuggets player scored more than eight points. Jokic's teammates made 23 of 72 shots and scored just 61 points. "We had a great performance from Nikola, just have to have a few other guys have a game, which we can do in Game 6," Adelman said. "I have full confidence in our guys." Denver took an eight-point lead into the fourth quarter, but Oklahoma City outscored the Nuggets 34-19 in the final period. Jokic said falling short was disappointing, but he believes the Nuggets still can win the series. "I mean, of course, it happens," he said of the rough finish. "And some people will say that we were not supposed to win Game 1, but we won it. And then Game 3, we didn't play very well, but we won. ... It's a playoff. It's a series. Every game is different." ___ AP NBA:https://apnews.com/hub/NBA

Jacob Wilson comes home to Los Angeles and leads Athletics' 18-hit attack in 11-1 rout of DodgersNew Foto - Jacob Wilson comes home to Los Angeles and leads Athletics' 18-hit attack in 11-1 rout of Dodgers

LOS ANGELES (AP) —Jacob Wilsonwon't forget his Dodger Stadium debut. The Athletics rookie hit a pair of two-run homers against the defending World Series champions in an 11-1 rout. Growing up in Thousand Oaks, about 40 miles from Los Angeles, Wilson visited the ballpark as a kid. His father, Jack, was an All-Star shortstop during his major league career with Pittsburgh, Seattle and Atlanta. Wilson had about 25 family and friends in the stands and they got loud. "For them to show up and have that game was pretty special," he said Tuesday night. The 23-year-old shortstop went 4 for 5 and had a career-high four RBIs, boosting his batting average to .363. His 58 hits are second in the majors behind Aaron Judge of the New York Yankees. Wilson had his eighth multi-hit game in his last 12. His first four-hit game came last week against Seattle. "We talked about his ability to put the barrel to the baseball and you saw every bit what he is capable of doing," A's manager Mark Kotsay said. "This kid is off to a great start and continues to do things that in some ways, we're watching him grow up as a big leaguer right now." Thanks to his father, Wilson already had a comfort level around the major leagues. "He is really advanced in his approach and just the way he plays the game," Kotsay said. "It definitely helps to get your feet on the ground but from the confidence standpoint you still have to have the results and have the success and he's been doing that since we drafted him." Wilson has struck out just nine times and leads American League rookies in batting average and several other categories. His first two-run shot in the third gave the A's a 2-0 lead. He did it again in the fifth to make it 4-1. Both homers came off Landon Knack. "The guy's a very good player," Knack said. "The guy does seem to hit everything. I got to execute a little better." Wilson said, "I don't hit too many homers, so to be able to get the multi-one now out of the way was pretty awesome." The A's had a season-high five homers as part of their 18-hit attack. "To be able to come here on their home field and with the talent they have on their roster, to be able to get that first win, it really just shows that we can play with the power teams in the league," Wilson said. ___ AP MLB:https://apnews.com/hub/MLB
