Iran has threatened to resume higher enrichment of uranium in 60 days if world powers fail to negotiate new terms for its 2015 nuclear deal, which President Trump withdrew from a year ago. Iran's president also said the country would stop exporting excess uranium and heavy water from its nuclear program, two requirements of the deal. Wednesday's announcement came, as a U.S. aircraft carrier and a bomber wing deploy to confront unspecified threats from Tehran. Uber and Lyft drivers are going on strike in several U.S. cities and some European cities, including London. They're turning off their apps on Wednesday to protest what they say are declining wages.... at a time when both companies are raking in billions from investors. Britain's Prince Harry and his wife Meghan have presented their newborn to the public. They held their son for the cameras at Windsor Castle on Wednesday. The Duchess of Sussex said the baby was "a dream" and called motherhood "magic."

Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin denied Giving Up @RealDonaldTrump Taxes. Do You Think It's Their Business? #MAGAFirstNews w/@PeterBoykin Showdown over Barr contempt charges brewing; Court battle over Trump tax records developing Dems ready to hold Barr in contempt, Starr blasts leak of 'whiny' Mueller letter As Democrats scheduled a vote this Wednesday on whether to hold Attorney General William Barr in contempt of Congress, former independent counsel Ken Starr sharply criticized the leak of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's letter following Barr's summary of the Russia report. Details of the March 24 letter went public shortly before Barr testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee last week. Multiple news outlets reported that Mueller raised concerns about how Barr's conclusions from the investigation were being portrayed. In an interview on "The Story with Martha MacCallum" on Monday, Starr called the release of the letter an "unforgivable sin" and said Mueller's complaints were "whiny." Wednesday's scheduled contempt vote on Barr is based on the Justice Department's failure to provide the full text of Mueller's report by a Monday morning deadline. Court battle over Trump's tax records developing Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin has denied House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard Neal's request for President Trump's tax returns, setting up a likely court battle. In a letter on Monday, Mnuchin said he'd relied on the advice of the Justice Department and concluded the request lacked a "legitimate legislative purpose." Mnuchin's decision is sure to set in motion a legal battle over Trump’s tax returns. The likely options available to Democrats would be to subpoena the Internal Revenue Service for the returns or to file a lawsuit. Trump pardons former Army lieutenant convicted of killing suspected al Qaeda terrorist President Trump has pardoned a former Army lieutenant who was convicted in 2009 of killing an Iraqi prisoner suspected of being an Al Qaeda terrorist, the White House announced Monday evening. White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders cited "broad support" for Michael Behenna, of Edmond, Okla., "from the military, Oklahoma elected officials, and the public" -- including 37 generals and admirals, along with a former Pentagon inspector general -- as the reason for Trump's clemency grant. Sanders also said Behenna had been a "model prisoner" while serving his sentence. A military court originally sentenced Behenna to 25 years for unpremeditated murder in a combat zone. However, the Army's highest appellate court noted concern about how the trial court had handled Behenna's claim of self-defense, Sanders said. The Army Clemency and Parole Board reduced his sentence to 15 years and paroled him in 2014, as soon as he was eligible. Ingraham gets an up-close look at the border crisis On Monday's edition of "The Ingraham Angle, host Laura Ingraham joined the U.S. Customs and Border Protection to get an exclusive lookat the border crossing in Del Rio, Texas.  Awaiting the royal reveal Britain's Prince Harry and Meghan Markle welcomed a bouncing baby boy early Monday morning, and now the world is waiting to find out the royal newborn's name and what he looks like. On Monday, a jubilant Harry said he and Markle still hadn't decided on his name. Images of the baby boy were not released. A few details were released in statement on Instagram. "We are pleased to announce that Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Sussex welcomed their firstborn child in the early morning on May 6th, 2019. Their Royal Highnesses’ son weighs 7lbs. 3oz.," the couple announced. "The Duchess and baby are both healthy and well, and the couple thank members of the public for their shared excitement and support during this very special time in their lives. More details will be shared in the forthcoming days."

Join Lucy Clayton and Dr Benjamin Wild for another eye-opening episode, as they explore a British phenomenon in popular culture, stating that fancy dress costume is inherently unfashionable and frequently in questionable taste. Photographs of authority figures and supposed role models in dubious dress-up regularly appear in newspapers to be excoriated by pundits and public alike. A memorable scene in Bridget Jones’ Diary, which featured Renée Zellweger wearing a Playboy bunny suit to an otherwise dowdy family get-together, will forever identify the British as past masters at donning awkward, astonishing and inexplicable costume. But what is it about fancy dress that encourages people to push the boundaries of humour and tact? Why do people in authority seem to get caught in compromising costume so frequently? Does a fancy dress ‘fail’ in fact reveal a person’s authentic character? And are some subjects simply too sensitive to ever become fancy dress? Contribute to the debate, or simply learn which costumes are best avoided altogether.   Feast your eyes and get involved on our Instagram page @dressfancypodcast   Presenters; Lucy Clayton Twitter: @MsLucyClayton Instagram: @mslucyclayton   Dr Benjamin Wild FRHistS www.benjaminwild.co Twitter: @DrBenjaminWild Instagram: @benjamin__wild   Find out more: For a lively discussion of British fancy dress and the question of bad taste, see Leah McLaren, 'Why do we long to be Nazis and Tarts?' - https://www.spectator.co.uk/2009/12/why-do-we-long-to-be-nazis-and-tarts/ For coverage of Britain's Prince Harry getting it wrong in fancy dress - https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1481148/Prince-Harry-faces-outcry-at-Nazi-outfit.html Lady Malcolm’s Servants’ Ball - www.duckie.co.uk Historic venue in Chelsea, London - www.chelseaartsclub.co.uk Evelyn Waugh - Vile bodies - Book 1930 Bright Young Things - Film 2003
