Y., said Democrats stood ready to work with Trump to fix Obamacare if he is willing to drop attempts to repeal the law and not undermine it. He warned that Trump is destined to "lose again" ...

... alone. That number could not be confirmed and state news agency Tass cited Moscow police as saying there were about 500 arrests. Navalny, who was arrested while walking from a nearby subway station to the demonstration at Moscow's iconic Pushkin Square, was the driving force of the demonstrations. He called for them after his Foundation for Fighting Corruption released a report contending that Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev has amassed a collection of mansions, yachts and vineyards.

He has served several short jail terms after arrests in previous protests and has twice been convicted in a fraud case, but given a suspended sentence.

The Gators missed the NCAA Tournament in Donovan's last season and White's first and it was easy to start wondering if the glory days of Florida basketball were gone. Even this season, the Gators were no lock to get back to the NCAAs until they ripped off nine straight victories, starting in late January.
