American K-pop star sues Korean label for 'abuse and mistreatment' as she makes series of shocking claimsWashington Men's Camerata Strikes a New Chord for 40th YearLAS VEGAS (AP) — The Broncos are 0-4 in Las Vegas, but in a matchup of teams heading in opposite directions, Denver has more at stake than trying to end a series skid. A victory over the Raiders puts the Broncos that much closer to an unexpected playoff berth, playing with a rookie quarterback and just a year after they went 8-9. The Broncos are 6-5 and coming off a 38-6 victory over the Atlanta Falcons , and would be in the playoff field if the season ended entering Week 12. Not bad for a team given a win total of 5 1/2 games at BetMGM Sportsbook. “Everyone understands the significance of where we are at this point in the season,” Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton said. The situation is quite different for the Raiders. They are 2-8, on a six-game losing streak and decimated by injuries. Las Vegas could enter this game without its top two running backs and a reshuffled line on offense, and defensively, the Raiders could have two linemen, three cornerbacks and a safety out of action. “Just been having some bad breaks, but nobody feels sorry for us,” Raiders coach Antonio Pierce said. "Nobody feels sorry for me. You’ve got to roll out there with 11 players, and that’s what we’re going to do come Sunday.” The Raiders are badly in a need of a franchise quarterback and are in a logjam for the top pick in next year's NFL draft. Denver showed with this year's draft how valuable landing such a QB can be to an organization. Bo Nix was selected 12th — one spot ahead of the Raiders — and he is pushing for AP Offensive Rookie of the Year. He was this week's top AFC player and rookie after completing 28 of 33 passes for 307 yards and four touchdowns in the rout of the Falcons. “I think as we’ve gone on, Coach (Sean Payton) and I have found a good rhythm of what we both like, what we can kind of put out there on the field and what we can execute," Nix said. "Then the guys have kind of adapted to it, found our roles within the offense and executed at a high level. It’s just all about slowing the game down and processing things in a manner that you can handle.” Raiders tight end Brock Bowers also could have a say in who wins the season's top offensive rookie award. He is second in the NFL with 70 catches and his 706 yards receiving is 10th among all receivers. His numbers from a historical perspective are even more impressive. Bowers, the 13th pick in this year's draft , is fourth all time among all tight ends in catches through the first 11 weeks and he and Jeremy Shockey in 2002 are the only rookies at that position to have more than one game with at least 10 receptions. “This week's a brand new week,” Bowers said. “I've always got something to prove.” Payton still isn't entirely comfortable splitting carries between running backs Javonte Williams, Jaleel McLaughlin and rookie Audric Estime. Asked how he determines the right balance in his rotation, Payton said, “That's the $6 million question. It’s difficult. We know kind of what we have with those three players. I think it’s always hard to feed three. "I'm used to — and it’s easy — to feed two. So we kind of do that a little bit. I thought Javonte had some really good runs (last week). Certainly the game ends and we’re like, ‘Gosh, we have to get Jaleel more touches.’ So it’s a tough, but a good problem to have.” With injuries to running backs Alexander Mattison (ankle) and Zamir White (quadriceps), 10-year veteran Ameer Abdullah could get the start for the Raiders this weekend. He has just 17 carries for 82 yards and a touchdown this season and started just one game his previous six seasons. “I see myself as a starter,” Abdullah said. “I think every guy in the room does. I consider myself the best back on this team just like every back does. This is my opportunity to go out there and put my best foot forward.” Patrick Surtain II had a pair of interceptions, including one he returned for 100 yards and a touchdown, in the team's first meeting this season and that fueled the Broncos' 34-18 win in Denver . Both of the passes were intended for Bowers, who caught a 57-yard touchdown pass in the first quarter. Surtain isn't expecting the Raiders to avoid him Sunday, however. “You don't want to go into a game thinking they're not gonna throw it your way,” Surtain said, “because it's the pros at the end of the day, everybody's ready, everybody's capable.” AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Stapleton in Englewood, Colorado, contributed to this report.

4 Nations brings Wild locker room a friendly Sweden-U.S. rivalry: 'I would love to score on him'SIU concludes LPS was justified in striking a man in August arrestProgressive House Democrats are demanding that President Joe Biden take executive action in his final days in office to certify the Equal Rights Amendment and commute death row sentences, arguing that he “has the ability, right now, to make a change.” In two separate press conferences on Tuesday, members of the “ Squad ” gathered outside the U.S. Capitol to call on Biden to act before President-elect Donald Trump and a Republican Congress take control of the federal government in January. At a press conference led by Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO), several activists joined the lawmakers in asking Biden and the U.S. Archivist to certify and publish the ERA, which was introduced over a century ago and has faced objections that it can no longer become the 28th Amendment to the Constitution. “You have the opportunity, President Biden, to make equal rights a defining part of your legacy,” Bush said. “All it takes is your signature. I can't sign it. We can't sign it. Only you can make this happen with just a stroke of your pen. You can protect so many people today. President Biden, you must take action and take it now.” Many supporters of the bill, including Bush and her progressive allies, argue the ERA has satisfied all of the necessary requirements to become the 28th Amendment. Virginia became the 38th and final state needed to ratify the amendment in 2020. However, the threshold was not reached by a 1982 deadline, and five states have since rescinded their support of the amendment, calling into question legally whether it becomes the law of the land. At the second press conference, held on Tuesday afternoon, progressives urged Biden to commute sentences for all 40 individuals sitting on federal death row, guilty or innocent. Biden disappointed Democrats and angered Republicans when he announced last week he would pardon his son, Hunter Biden, ​​who was convicted of tax and gun felonies this year. It set off a firestorm, with many progressives urging the president to focus on those they say are suffering from mass incarceration. Republicans called the move an abuse of his pardon powers. “With 40 days left in his presidency, we must move with urgency and ensure that history never repeats itself,” Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) said, referring to the decades-high number of federal executions carried out during the first Trump administration. “He has the power, and he has the authority,” Pressley said of Biden. “Now, this is not only the just thing to do for President Biden as a man of faith and in honoring his campaign promise to address the federal death penalty. It's not just good policy. It is also good politics.” During a press conference on Tuesday, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre declined to answer questions on calls to commute death row prisoners. Advocates on and off Capitol Hill have redoubled their efforts to codify the ERA into law, particularly in the wake of the Supreme Court overturning the federal right to an abortion in Roe v. Wade in 2022. Nicole Vorrasi Bates, founder and executive director of Shattering Glass, cited another case, United States v. Skrmetti, in urging Biden to sign the amendment. The case revolves around whether a Tennessee law banning transgender care for minors violates the Constitution’s equal protection guarantee. “We keep saying, ‘We’re not going back.’ Well, we know we have gone back,” said Vorrasi Bates. “Last week, the Supreme Court made crystal clear in U.S. v. Skrmetti at oral argument that in June, we will be going back to a time when more than half of the population doesn't have 14th Amendment equal protection.” “But it doesn't have to be that way. We have the Equal Rights Amendment,” Vorrasi Bates added. The fight to certify and publish the ERA has cast a shadow over Biden’s presidency since he took office. former U.S. Archivist David Ferriero, who served from 2009 to 2022, declined to publish the ERA as part of the Constitution. Acting Archivist Debra Steidel Wall, who served from 2022 to 2023, did not move to publish the amendment, either, despite letters from equal rights groups like Free Speech For People and Generation Ratify urging Biden to tell her to do so. Bush and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) introduced the ERA Now Resolution in July, urging current Archivist Colleen Shogan to certify the ERA. Gillibrand led 46 senators in sending a letter to Biden in November, calling on him to make the ERA part of the Constitution. In response to a Washington Examiner inquiry regarding Shogan’s stance on the ERA, the National Archives pointed to a 2022 statement, from when Shogan was not archivist, that details a finding from the Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel. The panel found that “because that deadline has expired, the ERA Resolution is no longer pending before the States” but that “the 2020 OLC Opinion is not an obstacle either to Congress’s ability to act with respect to ratification of the ERA or to judicial consideration of the pertinent questions.” Rep. Jennifer McClellan (D-VA) said it was "absurd that 101 years later, we are still fighting the same fights as our mothers, our grandmothers, and our great-grandmothers.” “We will continue to fight if necessary so that our daughters don't have to," she added. "But we’ve done the work.” CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER Rep. Becca Balint (D-VT) said voters get discouraged “because they see people in positions of power, who have the ability to make change, not take that power.” “There is no downside for President Biden to accept that it is ready,” Balint said.

David Perdue , R-Ga., had agreed to be nominated to be the next U.S. ambassador to China . “As a Fortune 500 CEO, who had a 40-year International business career, and served in the U.S. Senate, David brings valuable expertise to help build our relationship with China,” Trump said on his Truth Social platform , noting that Perdue has lived in Singapore and Hong Kong and spent much of his career working in China and elsewhere in Asia. > Watch NBC Bay Area News 📺 Streaming free 24/7 “He will be instrumental in implementing my strategy to maintain Peace in the region, and a productive working relationship with China’s leaders,” Trump said. Perdue's nomination is subject to Senate confirmation. The bilateral relationship between the U.S. and China, the world’s two largest economies, is often described as the most important in the world. Ties reached their lowest point in decades in recent years, but both President Joe Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping have been taking steps to improve them despite continuing disputes over trade, technology, human rights and the status of Beijing-claimed Taiwan. Trump, who takes office in January, started a trade war with China during his first term as president and has vowed to impose tariffs of 60% or more on all Chinese goods imported in his next one. Last week, he said he would impose an additional 10% tariff on Chinese goods unless Beijing does more to stop the international flow of precursor chemicals for fentanyl. Perdue, who visited China as part of a congressional delegation in 2018, said in a Fox News commentary written with other senators after the trip that the U.S. needs to “wake up and do a better job competing with China.” “America’s outdated view of China could result in lost opportunities, or even worse, dangerous miscalculations or complacency,” the senators wrote. “We must have a long-term plan to compete and deal with China’s rising economic and geopolitical influence.” Perdue, 74, a former management consultant, was a Republican senator from Georgia from 2015 to 2021. He served on the Foreign Relations and Armed Services committees. He lost to Democrat Jon Ossoff in a runoff after the 2020 general election. In 2022, he ran for governor after Trump recruited him to challenge Republican Gov. Brian Kemp , who refused to help Trump overturn Georgia’s election results in 2020, when the state voted for Biden. Perdue lost to Kemp in the Republican primary by more than 50 percentage points. “David has been a loyal supporter and friend, and I look forward to working with him in his new role!” Trump said Thursday. Before he entered the Senate, Perdue had a long corporate career, including as president and CEO of Reebok and CEO of Dollar General and the North Carolina textile company PillowTex. The current U.S. ambassador to China, Nicholas Burns , told NBC News in October that U.S.-China competition would continue “into the next decade.” “It’s a very challenging relationship,” he said. “But it’s without any question the most consequential relationship that we Americans have with any other country.” Xi told Biden last month that he would work with the Trump administration and that “China’s goal of a stable, healthy and sustainable China-U.S. relationship remains unchanged.” This article first appeared on NBCNews.com .
