A gregarious academic before he ascended to the bench, he believes deeply in the British common-law tradition that judges keep a low public profile. And if he’d stuck closer to that ideal, the past few months might have been less painful. Shortly after the duck-hunting flap, a member of his security detail erased reporters’ recordings of one of his speeches; Scalia issued a rare apology....

In May, the Premier League’s contingent of players with Turkish descent were invited to a meeting with Erdogan, and Gundogan was photographed attending alongside Germany team-mate Mesut Ozil and Everton striker Cenk Tosun. Gundogan, who was born in Gelsenkirchen, referred to Erdogan as “my president” and for that he has been singled out by Germany fans. Erdogan has regularly been criticised by human rights groups for his government’s alleged mistreatment of journalists, activists and political opponents, and so Gundogan was incessantly jeered by fans during two recent friendlies as a consequence of being seen with the politician....

She has always blamed Matt for all of their family issues and felt that Matt treated the land sale as “business” and not a “family property....

The teenage winger inadvertently broke the deadlock in the 38th minute at Signal Iduna Park when he swung the ball in from the right and saw it drift over Ron-Robert Zieler and in off the far post. It was the slice of luck Dortmund needed to overcome a nervy start as they bounced back from last weekend’s 6-0 hammering at Bayern Munich. Michy Batshuayi and Maximilian Philipp both struck after the break to seal the victory, moving BVB within a point of second-placed rivals Schalke ahead of next Sunday’s Ruhr derby....

For almost a year, the Indonesian government dismissed claims that the group was a threat.

Yudhoyono also named Bashir as the organization’s leader and said he could face legal action....

Smith has labeled it as one of the worst in NBA history while appearing on the sports debate show “First Take....

Trump faced fierce blowback after a video went viral over the weekend of her appearing to interject herself into a conversation with world leaders who looked less than enthused about her contributions.
