The State Department’s annual accounting of gifts given to senior U.S. officials by foreign leaders found that portraits from Australia, Egypt and Vietnam are collectively valued at more than $10,000.

By pulling the U.S. out of the deal that gave Iran billions of dollars in relief in exchange for reining in its nuclear program and instead deciding to put even more sanctions on Iran, the president has made peaceful resolutions more necessary, but harder to reach, they argued. “After Mr. Trump loudly pulled out of the Iran nuclear deal and imposed tough sanctions on Iran, it is hard to see what incentives he could dangle to prevent Iran and its proxies from further complicating the task of American forces in Iraq or elsewhere in the Middle East,” the editorial board wrote....

Some viewers will immediately protest that romance is not what Doctor Who is about, but that objection ignores just how much of New Who is character-driven. Each iteration of the Doctor builds and refines the character, and the Doctor’s relationships with his companions facilitate relational storylines — not to mention the rich character drama that the writers have proven so deft at building and resolving within individual episodes.

Often-criticized Clayton Kershaw was on the mound when Los Angeles’ two-run lead disappeared. He has been an all-time great regular-season pitcher but has regularly struggled in the playoffs, a trend that continued with him allowing back-to-back home runs to Anthony Rendon and Juan Soto to tie the game in the eighth inning.
