And policy will be implemented by U. S. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., once he’s confirmed as secretary of state.
A fourth Floridian also will have a role.

Q: Please let me be the first one to say the next thing for the Heat is a Triplet Tower of Terror. Bam Adebayo, Kel’el Ware and Nikola Jovic can hit threes and play inside and outside.
