Donald Trump 1’s only remaining rival for the Republican Party presidential nomination 2 John Kasich has confirmed his withdrawal 3 from the race. Mr. Kasich,the governor
of Ohio, made the announcement at an emotional news conference in his home state. “As I suspend my campaign today, I have renewed faith, deeper faith that the Lord
will show me the way forward and fulfill 4 the purpose of mylife.” The decision clears the way for Mr. Trump to run for the White House. Gary O'Donoghue is in
Washington.
“Now Donald Trump is the last man standing 5 having swept aside all before him. Once Senator Ted 6 Cruz had decided 7 to bow out after a drubbing in Indiana, John Kasich
the Ohio governor had little choice but to follow suit. That makes Mr. Trump the presumptive nominee 8 and he has already called for party unity 9 and said he’ll pick
someone with political experience to be his running mates. But some vocal 10 high profile Republicans have vowed 11 not to support him.”

and neighbors as people go through this difficult time. I was on the phone with their premiere Notley yesterday afternoon, obviously offering our total support as a
government to anything that is needed. ”

“Turkey is now in full-blown political crisis with a late night meeting between the President and Prime Minister seemingly unable to resolve deep divisions. Reports
say the governing AK Party will hold a congress in around 20 days and the current Prime Minister Ahmet Davuto?lu will not be a candidate. He had disagreed with the
President over various policies and had seemed uneasy about Mr. Erdo?an‘s plan to change Turkey’s constitution to a presidential system so as to boost his powers. ”

level of government do not rest until every drop of water that flows to your homes is safe to drink, and safe to cook with, and safe to bathe in because that’s part
of the basic responsibilities of a government in the United States of America.” Flint’s water became contaminated with lead after the city switched supplies in 2014.

The lawyer William Mauzy told a news conference that the day before the singer died, he’d asked to meet a doctor specializing in addiction 19 treatment. Peter Bolz in Los Angeles has more.
“Unable to travel from California to Minneapolis himself, the doctor Howard Kornfeld is said by his lawyer to have sent his son Andrew with drugs to help the singer
deal with a painkiller 20 addiction. He also arranged for a local doctor to see Prince. But when Andrew Kornfeld who is not a doctor himself,arrived at the Paisley Park,
he was one of three people to find the singer in an unresponsive state. The official cause of death is still not known.”
