Ocasio-Cortez shared the petition on her Twitter account Wednesday morning, calling for Stephen Miller, one of Trump’s top advisers, to leave his post after a report published by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) revealed Miller had sent hundreds of emails to Breitbart editors that pushed the right-wing media outlet toward stories involving white nationalists and anti-immigration policies.

The unseeded left-hander came out of gate with an aggressive plan in mind and started executing it from the opening point. Shelton’s serve game and ground strokes were impressively dominant, with the 20-year-old capitalising more often than not to put Popyrin off.

Eisenstaedt, who died at 96 last week on Martha’s Vineyard off Massachusetts, led a mostly lucky life. Born Dec. 6, 1898, in Prussia, he returned from a vacation in 1927 with a shot of a tennis player. At a friend’s suggestion, he managed to sell it to Der Weltspeigel. By 1929 he’d quit his job as a button salesman and become a photojournalist.

Joel Embiid and Nikola Jokic were both deserving of First Team spots, but voters didn’t bend the rules and put one of the big men at forward. DeMar DeRozan was listed as a guard and forward on the Bulls’ roster. He ultimately landed at forward on the Second Team. LeBron James, who logged minutes at every position, was one of the Third Team forwards. There were no easy answers to the toughest All-NBA questions, so voters had to use their best judgment in completing their ballots....

The diplomats were grappling over money–specifically, how much each of the U.N.’s 189 members should pay in dues. On a deeper level, the debate was over Washington’s relationship with the world body it wants to lead but loves to hate.

Holbrooke has spent much of his 16-month stint as U....

The Scudetto holders gave up an early 2-0 lead and missed a penalty at home to Mauricio Pochettino’s team in the round of 16 on Tuesday, and the Premier League side will have the advantage of two away goals in the return fixture at Wembley next month.

For the first time since August 2015, Juve failed to score at home in a Serie A game as they stayed third in the table. But Allegri was pleased with what he saw from his team, saying all that was missing from their performance was a winning goal. “Running is not the most important thing in football but it definitely helps. It allows you to bring your technical ability to the fore, and that’s what wins you games,” he said, via the club’s website....
