Meghan Markle Royal - Meghan Markle flies home from US with mystery baby shower gifts - Duration: 4:08.

 The Duchess of Sussex refused to open her baby shower gifts in front of her celebrity friends in the USA

 She instead kept them under wraps and said she wanted to share the moment with Harry when she got back home

 American breakfast show presenter Gayle King, who appears on CBS This Morning, was invited to the baby shower bash and revealed a few details, but first joked when asked on air about her present: "If I told you I would have to kill you

"  She added: "She didn't open any of the gifts because she wants to do that when she goes back to London, when she and Harry are back together

"  Seven-months-pregnant Meghan spent several days in the Big Apple with A-listers including Amal Clooney and Serena Williams before boarding the flight home on Wednesday evening

   The duchess, 37, celebrated the impending arrival of her child in what is reportedly the most expensive hotel room in the US, the Penthouse Suite in the five-star Mark Hotel, which costs a reported 75,000 dollars (£57,000) per night

   King added: "I don't know what everybody got.I got something I think is very nice

 "But you know, she's a very private person. I think she should decide what she wants to say about this

"  The breakfast TV co-host confirmed the women had spent their time together learning flower arranging from an expert with their efforts given to Repeat Roses, an organisation which gives unwanted blooms to good causes like hospices

   She said: "We all each made an individual vase.  "And then Meghan, at her request, they got in touch with an organisation I've never heard of, Repeat Roses, and they're all donated to different charities

 "I thought that was a very sweet thing."    Meghan flew back to the UK by private jet and this weekend will be jetting off to Morocco for a three-day tour of the country with Harry

 Pop superstar Beyonce and rapper husband Jay-Z congratulated the duchess on her pregnancy after the couple won a Brit Award

 Beyonce posted a picture on social media of the couple posing in front of a regal painting of Meghan dressed in a tiara, pearls and royal finery, with the caption: "Congrats on your pregnancy! We wish you so much joy

"  Joining human rights lawyer Clooney and tennis superstar Williams in New York for the celebrations was Abigail Spencer, who starred with Meghan in the US TV drama Suits

 Canadian stylist Jessica Mulroney, whose daughter Ivy was a bridesmaid at Meghan and Harry's wedding, was also there

 Other celebrities included harpist Erin Hill, fashion designer Misha Nonoo and TV presenter King, all close friends of the duchess

Camilla Parker Bowles BOMBSHELL: How Prince Andrew 'spread POISON' about Duchess - Today News US - Duration: 3:21.

 During the Nineties, Prince Charles was "convinced" those closest to him were conspiring to keep him from becoming king, according to a biographer

"Charles felt that the entire House of Windsor was ranged against him", Tom Bower wrote in "Rebel Prince: The Power, Passion and Defiance of Prince Charles"

During the Christmas holiday of 1996, Charles "brooded over his suspicion" that his brothers, Prince Edward and Prince Andrew, were "plotting his downfall"

Camilla Parker Bowles' RAGE at Prince Charles REVEALED: 'She was la. Camilla Parker Bowles FURY: How Duchess 'dubbed Princess Diana a MA

 Mr Bower wrote in the 2018 biography: "Mindful of Diana's prediction on Panorama that he would never be king, Charles convinced himself that even Princess Diana and Sarah Ferguson, were hatching plans to replace him as heir

" Mr Bower claims Mark Bolland, who acted as Charles' spin doctor said: "Andrew wanted to be me

I should have let him work with me. Now he's unhelpful." The biography claims Charles believed his brother "had been spreading poison" about his now wife Camilla Parker Bowles to the Queen and Prince Philip

 When Charles and Diana divorced that year, the Prince of Wales began to appear at private functions alongside Camilla

 However, after Diana's tragic death in a 1997 Paris car crash, it was another two years before the royal pair were seen together openly and a further 18 months before the public saw an open kiss on the cheek

 A source told the Daily Mail in 2018 that Camilla "hasn't forgotten" how "deeply unhelpful" Andrew was in facilitating her acceptance into the royal family after Princess Diana's death

 They revealed: "Camilla has always felt Andrew could have done more.  "The Queen listens to Andrew and he could have helped his brother at a time when he had few allies within the family

 "In fact, I would go so far as to say he was deeply unhelpful when support would have meant a huge amount to her and the Prince

  "Looking back to when there was little public sympathy for Charles and Camilla, if not open hostility, it was a case of Andrew playing politics

Camilla hasn't forgotten." This alleged rift with Andrew sparked rumours as to the reason why Camilla did not attend the lavish wedding of Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank in October 2018

Trumps attorney general pick says Mueller report may not be made public US news The Guardian - Duration: 4:48.

Trumps attorney general pick says Mueller report may not be made public US news The Guardian

At confirmation hearings, William Barr tells Senate the public would see his own summary of special counsels findings

At confirmation hearings, William Barr tells Senate the public would see his own summary of special counsels findings

Donald Trumps nominee for attorney general has said the special counsel Robert Muellers report on Russian election interference may not be made public.

On the first day of his US Senate confirmation hearing, indicated that his own summary of Muellers findings would be released.

Under the current regulations, the special counsel report is confidential, and the report that goes public would be a report by the attorney general, Barr told the Senate judiciary committee.

Pressed by the Democrat Mazie Hirono of Hawaii, Barr said: I dont know, at the end of the day, what will be releasable. I dont know what Bob Mueller is writing.

Barr, 68, is expected to win confirmation in the Republican controlled Senate to serve as Americas top law enforcement officer, putting him in charge of Muellers investigation into alleged collusion between Moscow and Trumps campaign.

In his opening statement, Barr, who was attorney general under the Republican president George HW Bush in the 1990s, promised as much transparency as I can on the Mueller report, but added that the degree of transparency would be consistent with the law. Later he stopped short of guaranteeing that the Mueller report would be submitted to Congress.

The White House could try to assert executive privilege to block parts of the Mueller report. Trumps lawyer Rudy Giuliani told the Hill website last week: As a matter of fairness, they should show it to you – so we can correct it if theyre wrong. Theyre not God, after all. They could be wrong.

At other points in Tuesdays hearing, Barr went out of the way to signal his independence. He told senators that he would protect the Mueller investigation from political pressure and would break ranks with the administration when necessary.

I will not be bullied into doing anything that I think is wrong – by anybody, whether it be editorial boards or Congress or the president, he said. Im going to do what I think is right.

He continued: President Trump has sought no assurances, promises or commitments from me of any kind, either express or implied, and I have not given him any, other than that I would run the department with professionalism and integrity.

He said he described Mueller, a longtime friend, as a straight shooter when Trump asked about him. He added: On my watch, Bob will be allowed to complete his work.

And if the president asked him to fire Mueller without good cause, Barr told the Democratic senator Chris Coons: I would not carry out that instruction.

Directly contradicting a claim Trump has made many times, Barr said: I dont believe Mr Mueller would be involved in a witch hunt.

He also endorsed the view of intelligence agencies, often questioned by Trump, by testifying: I believe the Russians interfered or attempted to interfere with the election, and I think we have to get to the bottom of it.

Barr even took issue with one of the lines chanted at Trumps rallies, saying that he does not subscribe to this lock her up stuff as he distanced himself from politically motivated prosecutions.

Nevertheless, Barr was not able to allay all the concerns of Democrats and other critics. He was questioned about an unsolicited last year that called Muellers case fatally misconceived for examining whether Trump obstructed justice by firing the FBI director James Comey.

Dianne Feinstein of California, the top Democrat on the committee, told Barr the memo showed a determined effort, I thought, to undermine Bob Mueller.

Barr replied his memo did not question the legitimacy of the investigation as a whole but merely expressed concerns that the special counsel might be improperly interpreting one aspect of the law.

He repeatedly refused to commit to recusing himself from an investigation, even if recommended by ethics officials. At the end of the day I would make a decision, he said. I am not going to surrender the responsibilities of the attorney general.

This contrasted with the former attorney general Jeff Sessions, who said he would defer to the recommendation of ethics officials after it emerged he had met with Russian officials while working on Trumps election campaign. But Barr said Sessions did the right thing because he faced a conflict due to his political activities.

Barr also spoke in favour of many of the hardline immigration policies ushered in by the . He said he believed in the use of border walls and condemned sanctuary cities that shield unauthorised immigrants from deportation. We need money right now for border security, including walls and barriers, he said.

And he raised eyebrows on the issue of freedom of the press. Senator Amy Klobuchar, a potential candidate in the 2020 election, asked: If youre confirmed, will the justice department jail reporters for doing their jobs?

Barr answered: I know there are guidelines in place, and I can conceive of situations where as a last resort and where a news organization has run through a red flag or something like that, knows that theyre putting out stuff that will hurt the country, there might be a – there could be a situation where someone would be held in contempt.

Trump signs directive in move to create a US Space Force Channel NewsAsia - Duration: 3:15.

Trump signs directive in move to create a US Space Force Channel NewsAsia

WASHINGTON: President Donald Trump on Tuesday Feb 19 took a step needed for lawmakers to begin the lengthy process of creating a US Space Force, a new branch of the military dedicated to handling threats in space.

Trump signed Space Policy Directive 4, which puts in place the foundation for a legislative initiative that could establish a Space Force as a new military service comparable to the US Marines.

In an Oval Office signing ceremony, Trump said the Space Force is a national security priority.

The memo directs the Department of Defence "to marshal its space resources to deter and counter threats in space," through the establishment of Space Force that would be part of the Air Force, according to a draft seen by Reuters.

Establishing the Space Force will require Congressional approval.

In August, the Trump Administration announced an ambitious plan to usher in the force as the sixth branch of the military by 2020.

Space Force would be an armed branch of the military and "include both combat and combat support functions to enable prompt and sustained offensive and defensive space operations," according to the memo.

US Air Force chief General David Goldfein, speaking at Brookings, a Washington think tank, said on Tuesday the establishment of Space Force was still a long way off, including "intricate details of how we move forward in establishing this service within the Department of the Air Force."

Goldfein also said "from a war fighting perspective the most important step that we take going forward, and the one that we need to do the quickest, is to establish a US Space Command as a combatant commander," a role that would actually command the personnel and materials presented to them by Space Force.

The Air Force is the US military branch that currently has responsibility for space.

Last year, then Deputy Secretary of Defence Patrick Shanahan had focused on internal Pentagon reform and issues like the creation of a Space Force, an initiative that met with resistance from some lawmakers and others in the Pentagon.

Shanahan, now acting Secretary of Defence, had said in 2018 that the proposed Space Force could have an initial budget of less than US dollar 5 billion.

On Tuesday, a Pentagon official speaking on condition of anonymity said initial start up costs for the Space Force were estimated to be about US dollar 72 million.

A US Air Force cost estimate from earlier last year said Space Force would be around US dollar 13 billion in the first five years.
