When Kentucky players did just that, Louisville apparently didn’t take that lightly.

Not on this day, however. “He told me he didn’t know I was that good of a player,” Ulis said. “He said he knew I was good, but he didn’t know I was THAT good. He was proud of me.

The measure, which if passed would state that there was no right to an abortion under Kentucky law, was voted against, according to the Associated Press. The measure was intended to enshrine in the state constitution that abortion is not a right, a development that some believed could hurt lawsuits against the state’s abortion ban. The rejection comes as something of a shock for the Republican stronghold state, where incumbent Rand Paul also won in a landslide for Senate on Tuesday night, beating Democratic nominee Charles Booker 61....

Being sleepless in Detroit hasn’t proven such a bad thing for Wagoner & Co. General Motors is now Detroit’s healthiest automaker and much farther along the road to recovery than its crosstown rivals, who are hemorrhaging billions while GM is merely losing millions. And in a large way, Wagoner has Kerkorian to thank for that, analysts say. Sure, the two probably parted ways because Wagoner wouldn’t go along with Kerkorian’s ambitious plan to align GM with France’s Renault and Japan’s Nissan, creating a car colossus that would have controlled a quarter of the world’s auto market....
Just the day before, Kerry had been all swagger as he took swipes at President Bush in a speech to a crowd of Democrats. But Kerry, never known for his verbal agility, or his sense of humor, mangled what was supposed to be a biting laugh line aimed at the president’s handling of the Iraq mess. “If you … do your homework, you make an effort to be smart, you can do well....
MORE: Classic Kevin Durant photos The Thunder forward told reporters Wednesday he won’t travel from city to city to be wined and dined by NBA teams once the league’s free-agency period begins on July 1. “That’s not who I am,” Durant said during the Thunder’s postseason media availability. “I’m not that type of person.” Oklahoma City’s season came to an end Monday night after it lost to Golden State.

On one end, Ben Simmons hounds an All-Star point guard before switching onto and locking down an All-Star swingman. As the shot clock winds down, he sniffs out a last-ditch action and rotates over to swat a shot off the backboard. Immediately, he grabs the ball and goes, flanked by Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. An unstoppable, all-seeing 6-foot-10 open floor menace, Simmons draws two bodies and looks off both defenders closing in on Brooklyn’s two All-Star bucket-getters before dumping it off with a sweet no-look dime to a wide open Seth Curry in the corner....
The 10-time NBA All-Star won two Finals as part of a dominant Warriors team, and he was named MVP in 2014 after averaging 32 points per game for the Thunder.

McCarthy later released a statement saying the reporting was “totally false and wrong.” Thursday evening, the Times published audio of McCarthy telling lawmakers what the newspaper had reported he said....
The Republican congressman from California said in a statement that he sent a letter to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin earlier this year to complain about “politicization” at the NSA due to President Joe Biden’s administration sidelining lawyer Michael Ellis, who was installed at the agency during the last few days of former President Donald Trump’s administration. Carlson alleged that he was being personally targeted by the NSA as part of an effort to take his Fox News opinion program off the air on Monday....
