An email chain described Aleksander Torshin, a former senator and deputy head of Russia's central bank who is close to Russian President Vladimir Putin, as wanting Trump to attend an event on the side lines of a National Rifle Association convention in Louisville, Kentucky, in May 2016, the sources said. The email also suggests Torshin was seeking to meet with a high-level Trump campaign official during the convention, and that he may have had a message for Trump from Putin, the sources said. Kushner rebuffed the request after receiving a lengthy email exchange about it between a West Virginia man and Trump campaign ai...

John Cena sold his new Ford GT car, but the company was not happy with his move. Ford is taking legal actions by suing the "American Grit" star for violating their contract by selling his new $500k 2017 Ford GT.

The TV veteran was so irritated by the man's constant interruptions, he had him removed. David Dimbleby threw a rowdy audience member out of BBC Question Time tonight, after he repeatedly shouted at a Tory minister. The audience member, who identified himself as a Jeremy Corbyn supporter, questioned whether Theresa May had legitimacy as Prime Minister after failing to get a majority. He ranted: " Jeremy Corbyn has proven that anti-austerity policies are popular! The Tories and the Blairites lost that election." But as Justice Secretary David Lidington tried to defend the struggling Tory government, he repeatedly interrupted him and other panellists, shouting out for the rich and corporations to be taxed more heavily.

But as Lidington attempted to explain about th...
The U.S. and Iran have both taken defensive measures to prepare for a potential conflict following President Donald Trump's controversial decision Friday to not certify a landmark nuclear treaty between both countries and four other leading powers. Despite recommendations from his security and defense advisors, Trump decertified the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), a 2015 deal negotiated by the U.S., Iran, China France, Germany, Russia and the U.K., and designated Iran's elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) a terrorist organization. Trump's remarks, in which he accused Iran of being a "fanatical regime" that sponsors terrorism abroad, had immediate repercussions in the region, with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani quickly condemning the speech during a televised address. "Mr. Trump's remarks on Iran…contained nothing but expletives and a pile of delusional allegations against the Iranian nation," Rouhani said, according to Press ...
