Key Trump priorities left out of US spending deal

Key Trump priorities left out of US spending dealUS President Donald Trump is "pleased" with a bipartisan deal to fund government through September, the White House said Monday, even though several of his top priorities were left out of the agreement. The newly-unveiled congressional deal includes Trump's call for increased military spending, but rejects his demand to fund a border wall and maintains spending levels for key government operations including the State Department that he had proposed gutting. The agreement was struck late Sunday after weeks of tense negotiations fueled the threat of a government shutdown just as Trump was marking his 100th day in office.

U.S. spending deal shows Democrats still wield clout in Congress

U.S. spending deal shows Democrats still wield clout in CongressBy Richard Cowan WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republicans control the U.S. Congress and the White House but a bipartisan deal on nearly $1.2 trillion in federal spending that would avert a government shutdown had the fingerprints of Democrats all over it. U.S. President Donald Trump told Bloomberg news in an interview on Monday he was "very happy" with the deal announced late on Sunday. Trump scored up to $15 billion in additional funding for a military buildup, though that sum was about half of what he sought in deal reached by Republican and Democratic congressional negotiators.

Scoreboard proposal at Fenway Park goes painfully wrong

Scoreboard proposal at Fenway Park goes painfully wrongScoreboard proposals are a pretty risky move...and they don't always pay off. One Red Sox fan learned that lesson the hard way on Sunday. He popped the big question on the scoreboard at Fenway Park, but he didn't exactly get the response he was hoping for.  Of course his humiliation, like his proposal, was exceedingly public. People at the game took to Twitter immediately to talk about the awkwardness. The scoreboard proposal at Fenway may have just gone awry. There was no hug, the camera cut away and the crowd groaned. — Pete Abraham (@PeteAbe) May 1, 2017 Holy hell somebody just proposed to their girlfriend at Fenway and I think they said no. — Ty Anderson (@_TyAnderson) May 1, 2017 A video board proposal just happened at Fenway...and she said no... — Corey Thiele (@coreythiele) May 1, 2017 Someone even managed to capture a video of the moments following the proposal, in which she says the couple in question are fighting. Ouch.  This guy just proposed at Fenway on camera. She said no. Now they are arguing. That poor camera man pic.twitter.com/N9m8nOIXKH — Kim (@kimba7391) May 1, 2017 Of course we don't know for sure that she didn't eventually say yes, but either way she was well within her rights to not be thrilled with this over-the-top gesture. And for some, the non-storybook ending was a welcome change from the usually sappy moments. Finally. Someone said no to a proposal on the Jumbotron at fenway. Love it. #StopProposingAtSportingEvents — Tom Giles (@TomGilesCSN) May 1, 2017 It's impossible to know the exact circumstances that led to this mess, but it sure seems like this dude should have made extra sure his girlfriend was on the same page re: lifelong commitment before popping the question in a stadium full of people.  WATCH: The best plot points in movie history

Iran's leader rebuffs Rouhani's detente policy ahead of vote

Iran's leader rebuffs Rouhani's detente policy ahead of voteBy Bozorgmehr Sharafedin LONDON (Reuters) - Iranians should not thank Hassan Rouhani's policy of detente with the West for any reduction in the threat of war, supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Sunday, stepping up his criticisms of the president as elections approach. In comments that appeared to favor hardline candidates in the May 19 vote, Khamenei played down the benefits of Rouhani's landmark agreement to curb Iran's nuclear activities in return for a lifting of international sanctions. This is not correct," Khamenei was quoted as saying by state media.
