RABAT (Reuters) – Britain’s Prince Harry and his pregnant wife Meghan will begin a three-day visit to Morocco on Saturday during which they will show their support for rural girls’ education in the Atlas mountains.

The visit at the request of the British government is the second to the kingdom in recent years by a member of the royal family, following a trip by Prince Charles in 2011. Queen Elizabeth visited Morocco in 1980.

It is expected to be the final royal overseas trip before the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are due to become parents this spring, according to British media.

The couple arrive in Casablanca on Saturday evening. The next morning they will fly to the Atlas mountains where they will meet girls at a boarding house run by Education for All, an NGO that builds dormitories near schools to reduce school drop-out rates among girls aged 12 to 18, the UK embassy said.

“This visit will help give international publicity to the work we do and will help us raise money to build more boarding houses,” Michael McHugo, founder of Education for All, told Reuters by phone.

While in Asni, Harry and Meghan will meet local high school students and teachers and afterwards attend a football game.

“The visit will add new momentum to tourism in the region,” said Montassir Itri from Asni.

On Monday, the Duke and Duchess will attend an equestrian event in the capital Rabat centering on horse therapy for children with special needs, followed by a cooking event and a meeting with young social entrepreneurs.

The couple is also expected to meet a member of the Moroccan royal family later in the day at a palace in Rabat.

WASHINGTON -- Fox News reporter Peter Doocy trailed Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., as she walked through a Capitol hallway on Wednesday so that he could ask her: "Rep. Omar, there seems to be some confusion among your colleagues. Are you anti-Semitic?"

Rather than say "yes" or "no," Omar refused to respond, even as House Democrats were wrangling over a resolution condemning anti-Semitism that was drafted in response to Omar's comments about Israel supporters pushing "allegiance to a foreign country."

It was clear that Omar felt she had no responsibility to answer a question about a controversy that was roiling House Democrats.

That same day, Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez released a statement to The Washington Post that said, "Fox News will not serve as a media partner for the 2020 Democratic primary debates."

Perez cited a New Yorker magazine article detailing incestuous ties between some Fox News biggies, notably Sean Hannity, and President Donald Trump as the impetus for his decision. But given that Democrats also barred Fox News from the party's 2016 debate roster, Perez seemed to be trolling for an excuse.

Think for a moment about the cheekiness of Perez making this announcement to The Washington Post, a preferred media outlet. Whenever Trump gives interviews to Fox News anchors, the press corps duly notes that Trump is limiting his favors to a friendly crowd.

But when Democrats hand a scoop to the Post: crickets.

Does anyone believe the New Yorker will run a story about the kissing cousins dynamic between the Democratic Party and The Washington Post?

That simply isn't done. By excluding Fox News from his party's debates, Perez was simply working to maintain the status quo for the mainstream media. Conservatives need not apply.

Likewise, President Barack Obama frequently lambasted Fox News and saw no reason to distinguish between Hannity and the network's diligent reporters.

The reason Perez excluded Fox News was to prevent the conservative outlet's anchors from asking questions that are less likely to be asked by talking heads inside the liberal media bubble.

Yes, left-leaning journalists ask pointed questions, but they tend to ask the same pointed questions that come from the same political instincts and the same college-educated urban mindset, with no understanding of how those outside their world regard them.

To Trump voters, they are not fearless professionals speaking truth to power, but a pack.

To Trump voters, Chris Wallace, Martha MacCallum and Bret Baier are real journalists who ask questions that matter to them.

I could go through the list of tough questions asked by Fox News reporters such as Megyn Kelly, who so infuriated Trump during the first GOP debate of the 2016 primary when she asked him about some of his nasty words for women he doesn't like.

In the New Yorker story, author Jane Mayer discredited that moment by reporting that anonymous sources "believe" that Roger Ailes, the late Fox News CEO, leaked the question to Trump ahead of the debate. If Ailes did so, that's inexcusable.

The standard conservative riposte would be to invoke former CNN contributor Donna Brazile's leaking of debate topics and questions to the Hillary Clinton campaign during the 2016 primary. She admits it, and it was inexcusable.

Let's just say that every news network has produced massive screwups worthy of undying shame and get on with the real outrage over the DNC's decision to ban Fox News from its roster.

It's a bald and probably successful play designed to notify every journalist to stick with the pack mentality -- because the Democratic National Committee gets to define good journalism.

NATO chief, in speech to Congress, declares Trump’s push for more defense spending is working

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, in a historic address to Congress, declared Wednesday that President Trump’s push for NATO allies to increase their defense spending has “had an impact” and made the alliance stronger.

“Allies must spend more on defense. This has been the clear message from President Trump,” he said. “And this message is having a real impact.”

MERKEL CALLS FOR CREATION OF EUROPEAN ARMY, BACKING MACRON IN SPAT WITH TRUMP

NATO does not have a defense budget, but members commit to spending a minimum of 2 percent of their Gross Domestic Products on defense. Trump, however, has repeatedly called out members that do not meet that commitment, even as this campaign has caused friction with longtime U.S. allies. The United States spends 3.5 percent of its GDP on defense, and Trump has long called for fellow NATO members to put up their share.

As Trump himself has taken credit for nations agreeing to increase their spending pledges, Stoltenberg said that NATO is stronger as a result of the U.S. pressure.

“After years of reducing defense budgets, all allies have stopped the cuts and all allies have increased their defense spending. Before they were cutting billions, now they are adding billions,” he said.

Stoltenberg told lawmakers that European allies and Canada have spent an additional $41 billion in the last two years and that by the end of 2020, that figure will rise to $100 billion.

“That money will allow us to invest in new capabilities our armed forces need, including advanced fighter aircraft, attack helicopters, missile defense and surveillance drones,” he said. “This is good for Europe and it is good for America.”

In a wide-ranging speech in which he talked about NATO’s importance in winning the Cold War and fighting Russian aggression and terrorism, he also praised the U.S. and NATO’s effort to defeat ISIS in the Middle East -- saying the coalition made “remarkable progress.”

“Thanks to American leadership and our collective efforts, we have stopped this brutality and millions of people have been liberated,” he said.

The speech coincides with events marking the 70th anniversary of the alliance's founding charter. Stoltenberg, a two-time prime minister of Norway and the first NATO chief to address a joint meeting of Congress, spoke a day after having met with Trump, where both officials hailed the increase in alliance spending.

NATO CHIEF PLAYS DOWN ROWS AS ALLIES MARK 70TH ANNIVERSARY

But Trump has in the past expressed reservations about NATO, primarily stemming from the spending issue, which in turn threatened to rock the alliance.

The New York Times reported in January that Trump had suggested withdrawing the U.S. from NATO several times in 2018, and that officials feared he could return to the threat if allied military spending continued to lag.

On Tuesday, Trump said along Stoltenberg that the relationship with NATO “has been very good” and he hailed “tremendous progress” on the question of defense spending.

But he noted that Germany, in particular, was not, according to him, “paying what they should be paying.”

"Germany is not paying their fair share," he said.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.

UK man who fled to Georgia after speedboat death returns to Britain

April 10, 2019

LONDON (Reuters) – A British man who went on the run last year after killing a woman in a speedboat crash on the River Thames has returned to Britain after being extradited from the former Soviet state of Georgia, UK prosecutors said on Wednesday.

Jack Shepherd, 31, was convicted in his absence last July of the manslaughter by gross negligence of Charlotte Brown, 24, and sentenced to six years in jail.

He will appear in court in London on Thursday to be sentenced in person for the death of Brown.

“Jack Shepherd has returned to the UK to face justice,” Angela Deal, head of extradition at the Crown Prosecution Service, said.

“He will first appear at the Old Bailey to be sentenced for the gross negligence manslaughter conviction in connection with the death of Charlotte Brown, and then at a later date in the south west over the grievous bodily harm charge.”

After months on the run, Shepherd turned himself in to police in Georgia earlier this year, telling a court he was agreeing to extradition so he could take part in an appeal process.

Shepherd took Brown for a ride on a speedboat in December, 2015 during a first date.

Shortly before midnight, the boat hit floating debris and both were thrown into the water. Shepherd was found clinging to the hull but Brown was pulled from the water unconscious and died from cold water immersion.

Prosecutors said Shepherd was drunk and that neither he nor Brown was wearing a life-jacket.

Bernie Sanders Warns Dems to Avoid Anti-Trump Focus or ‘We Lose’ 2020

Sen. Bernie Sanders warned Monday that if Democrats focus on an attack strategy against President Donald Trump ahead of the 2020 election, “we lose.”

In a wide-ranging town hall sponsored by Fox News and held in Bethlehem, Pa. — a state that helped Trump win in 2016 — an energetic and confident Sanders hit some of the hot-button issues likely to be part of his second run at the White House, including political  strategy, taxing the rich and a single-payer healthcare system.

“I don't think the American people are proud that we have a president who is a pathological liar,” he said. “It does not give me pleasure to say that. I disagreed with George W. Bush on almost everything. Bush was not a pathological liar. … It's hard to believe anything that he says.”

But, he added, “if we spend all of our time attacking… Democrats are going to lose. Our job is to lay out a vision that makes sense to the working families of this country, and that's what I'm trying to do.”

Sanders also was grilled on his taxes, which were released Tuesday — and he was unapologetic for being a millionaire, emphasizing he voted against a 2017 tax bill from which he admittedly benefited.

You raised the issue I'm a millionaire,” he said, adding: “It came from a book that I wrote, pretty good book, you might want to read it… and we made money.  If anyone thinks that I should apologize for writing a best-selling book, I'm sorry, I'm not going to do it.

“But let me reiterate, I voted against [the tax cut bill].”

He also took a sharp slap at Trump’s refusal to release his taxes.

“The president watches your network a bit, right?” he asked hosts Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, which triggered laughs from the audience and smiles of the hosts.

Then looking at the camera, Sanders said: “Hey President Trump, my wife and I just released 10 years of our taxes. Please do the same.”

There were brief boos from an otherwise supportive audience when the subject of terminating a pregnancy at birth was was raised.

“I think that that happens very, very rarely,” he said, adding “it’s being made into a political issue but at the end of the day, I believe that the decision over abortion belongs to a woman and her physician, not the federal government, not the state government.”

Sanders also promoted a single-payer healthcare system.

“We are not talking about government-run healthcare,” he said. “The Veterans Administration and most veterans think that that's a pretty good healthcare system… What we are talking about is simply a single-payer insurance program, which means that you will have a card which says Medicare on it, you will go to any doctor that you want, you will go to any hospital that you want."

Sanders also addressed outspoken criticism by Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., of Israel. "I think that she has got to do a better job in speaking to the Jewish community, but if your question to me is do I think she's anti-Semitic, no, I don't.

"Here is the point, also, I'm Jewish. I lost my father's family, devastated by Hitler, so this is an issue of some sensitivity to me. I will do everything in my power, and I hope every member of Congress will fight not only anti-Semitism, but racism and anti-Muslim activity so we create a nondiscriminatory society. But it is not anti-Semitic to be critical of a right wing government in Israel. It is not anti-Semitic."

Uruguay's president removes commander-in-chief of the army

Uruguay's president has removed the country's commander-in-chief of the army after he questioned how local courts have handled cases involving members of the military accused of dictatorship-era human rights abuses.

The decision by President Tabare Vazquez to dismiss Gen. Guido Manini Rios was announced Tuesday in a statement by the presidency.

The statement said Manini told Vazquez in a meeting that courts had not granted due process to some of those accused of crimes against humanity committed during the 1973-1985 dictatorship. Manini also said that some were sentenced without proof or with forged evidence.

The presidency said he was removed because the decisions of the judiciary must be respected.

More than 40 members of the military have been investigated after being accused of human rights crimes.

NEW YORK (Reuters) – The Federal Reserve may lower the interest it pays on excess reserves banks leave with it by 5 basis points at its April 30-May 1 policy meeting in a bid to prevent the federal funds rate from drifting higher, Morgan Stanley analysts said on Friday.

This would mark the third such “technical” adjustment on the interest on excess reserves (IOER) following cuts last June and December.

Tennis - Australian Open - Women's Singles Final

April 26, 2019

(Reuters) – World number one Naomi Osaka came from behind in the final set to beat Croatian Donna Vekic 6-3 4-6 7-6(4) on Friday and move into the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix semi-finals.

Osaka comfortably won the opening set but was tested by the Croatian, who pushed her to the limit in the second and third. The Japanese made 45 unforced errors as she struggles to get to grips with swapping hard courts for clay.

Osaka was visibly frustrated and trailed 5-1 in the final set but she refused to give up and found her rhythm to break Vekic twice and prevent her from serving for the match.

In the tiebreaker, a confident Osaka upped her baseline game and had two early mini breaks before wrapping up the match in two hours and 18 minutes. An infuriated Vekic even smashed her racket after losing the match.

“I told myself I didn’t want to have any regrets here,” Osaka said. “I was stressed out when I went down 1-5… but this (comeback) was pretty good because I don’t play really well on clay.”

Earlier, world number three Petra Kvitova came back from a set down to beat Anastasija Sevastova 2-6 6-2 6-3 and move into the tournament’s semi-finals for the third time in her career.

Sevastova had a dream start, breaking Kvitova twice to take a 3-0 lead as the Czech struggled with her first serve. Kvitova also made a slew of unforced errors, with many of her returns going long.

Sevastova used the full width of the court to get the better of Kvitova, who played on the back foot for much of the first set as the Latvian gave her little time to catch her breath.

However, Kvitova recovered in the second set and she broke Sevastova’s serve when she was 3-2 up, winning 10 straight points to take a 5-2 lead. Sevastova looked shaken and was broken again to give Kvitova the second set.

Kvitova took command in the final set and broke a visibly upset Sevastova to take a 3-1 lead before easing into the semis.

“In the first set I missed almost everything. I was pretty slow and she just couldn’t miss,” Kvitova said. “In the second set it was very important for me to stay on my serve and the chance to break her came.”

Kiki Bertens plays Angelique Kerber later on Friday and Victoria Azarenka faces Anett Kontaveit in the last quarter-final.

The Latest on fatal pileup on Interstate 70 near Denver (all times local):

10:10 a.m.

Colorado officials say four people have died after a semi-truck hauling lumber plowed into vehicles on Interstate 70, causing a fire so intense that it melted the roadway and metal off of cars.

Authorities had to wait until daylight Friday to confirm the death toll from Thursday’s 28-vehicle pileup because of the devastation caused by the fire.

Six people were taken to hospitals with injuries. Their conditions are unclear.

Lakewood police spokesman Ty Countryman says the driver of the truck who caused the crash sustained minor injuries. He has been arrested on suspicion of vehicular homicide.

Officials say the driver was headed down a hill when he slammed into slower traffic. Countryman says there is no indication the crash was intentional.

____

7:40 a.m.

A truck driver blamed for causing a deadly pileup involving over two dozen vehicles near Denver has been arrested on vehicular homicide charges.

Lakewood police spokesman Ty Countryman said Friday that there’s no indication that drugs or alcohol played a role in Thursday’s crash.

The unidentified driver was headed down a hill on Interstate 70 when he slammed into slower traffic and sparked a massive fire. Countryman said police are looking at whether his brakes were working properly.

He said 28 vehicles were involved, up from the initial 15 vehicles police reported after further sorting through the burned wreckage.

Police still say there were multiple fatalities but are still working to provide an exact number.

The highway is expected to remain closed until Saturday.

Tiger woods celebrates after winning the 2019 Masters

April 26, 2019

Tiger Woods is sending a message that he thinks he still has enough left, emotionally and physically, to win three more major championships to tie Jack Nicklaus’ record 18 titles.

Speaking to GolfTV in his first sit-down interview since the Masters, Woods said he has taken some time off since his victory at Augusta National, which still doesn’t feel real.

“Honestly, it’s hard to believe,” Woods said. “I was texting one of my good friends last night … that I couldn’t believe that I won the tournament. That it really hasn’t sunk in. I haven’t started doing anything. I’ve just been laying there. And every now and again, I’ll look over there on the couch and there’s the jacket.”

That’s the fifth green jacket for the 43-year-old Woods, who hadn’t won a major tournament since the 2008 U.S. Open. Along the way, four back surgeries, a divorce and other personal issues derailed him.

He said he has been spending time with his children – daughter Sam, 11, and son Charlie, 10 – who weren’t born when their father was the most dominant golfer on the planet.

“They never knew golf to be a good thing in my life and only the only thing they remember is that it brought this incredible amount of pain to their dad and they don’t want to ever want to see their dad in pain,” Woods said. “And so to now have them see this side of it, the side that I’ve experienced for so many years of my life, but I had a battle to get back to this point, it feels good.”

He said he hopes – maybe expects — they’ll see this side again.

And no one will take Woods for granted at the PGA Championship at Bethpage Black Course on Long Island, N.Y., which starts May 16.

Woods said he’ll be ready for a course he already conquered once in a major: the 2002 U.S. Open.

“I’m doing all the visual stuff, but I haven’t put in the physical work yet. But it’s probably coming this weekend,” he said.

Before Woods encountered health and personal problems, it was expected that topping Nicklaus’ major mark was “when” and not “if.” Then the certainty went away, but Woods thought he still had a chance.

“I always thought it was possible, if I had everything go my way. It took him an entire career to get to 18, so now that I’ve had another extension to my career – one that I didn’t think I had a couple of years ago – if I do things correctly and everything falls my way, yeah, it’s a possibility. I’m never going to say it’s not.

“Now I just need to have a lot of things go my way, and who’s to say that it will or will not happen? That’s what the future holds, I don’t know. The only thing I can promise you is this: that I will be prepared.”

Maria Butina, the Russian woman who was accused of being a secret agent for the Russian government, was sentenced to 18 months in prison Friday by a federal judge in Washington after pleading guilty last year to a conspiracy charge.

Butina, who has already served nine months behind bars, will get credit for time served and can possibly get credit for good behavior, the judge said. She will be removed from the U.S. promptly on completion of her time, the judge added, and returned to Russia.

MARIA BUTINA, ACCUSED RUSSIAN SPY, PLEADS GUILTY TO CONSPIRACY

An emotional and apologetic Butina said in court Friday she is “truly sorry” and regrets not registering as a foreign agent.

“I feel ashamed and embarrassed,” she said, adding that her “reputation is ruined.”

Butina has been jailed since her arrest in July 2018. She entered the court Friday wearing a dark green prison jumpsuit and spoke in clear English, with a slight Russian accent.

“Please accept my apologies,” Butina said.

Butina’s lawyer, Robert Driscoll, said after the sentencing they had hoped for a “better outcome,” but expressed a desire for Butina to be released to her family by the fall.

Prosecutors had claimed Butina used her contacts with the National Rifle Association and the National Prayer Breakfast to develop relationships with U.S. politicians and gather information for Russia.

Prosecutors also have said that Butina’s boyfriend, conservative political operative Paul Erickson, identified in court papers as “U.S. Person 1,” helped her establish ties with the NRA.

WHO IS MARIA BUTINA, THE RUSSIAN WOMAN ACCUSED OF SPYING ON US?

In their filings, prosecutors claim federal agents found Butina had contact information for people suspected of being employed by Russia’s Federal Security Services, or FSB, the successor intelligence agency to the KGB. Inside her home, they found notes referring to a potential job offer from the FSB, according to the documents.

Investigators recovered several emails and Twitter direct message conversations in which Butina referred to the need to keep her work secret and, in one instance, said it should be “incognito.” Prosecutors said Butina had contact with Russian intelligence officials and that the FBI photographed her dining with a diplomat suspected of being a Russian intelligence agent.
