EST WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump's former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, is expected to give a behind-the-scenes account of what he will claim is Trump's lying, racism and cheating, and possibly even criminal conduct, when he testifies publicly before a House committee Wednesday, according to a person with knowledge of the matter.

Trump's former personal "fixer" arrived on Capitol Hill on Tuesday to begin three days of congressional appearances, starting with a closed-door interview with the Senate intelligence committee.

BBC snubs Princess Diana, Michael Jackson and Sir Paul McCartney in a bid to find the 20th century’s most iconic figures
THE BBC has snubbed The Beatles, Michael Jackson and Princess Diana in a vote to find the most iconic figures. Instead contenders include the Chinese scientist Tu Youyou, US political activist Helen Keller and Brit archaeologist Gertrude Bell. BBC Two’s eight-part Icons will ask viewers to choose the most influential people from the 20th century. The series launches on January 8, ironically the birthday of Elvis Presley, who has also been ignored. The omissions have led to a backlash on Twitter. Viewer James McDonald wrote: “Most of these lists are iffy. But the entertainers, sportsmen and artists lists are particularly bad.” Celebrities, including TV’s Clare Balding and Sir Trevor McDonald, will make the case for icons from the categories leaders, explorers, scientists, entertainers, activists, sport, art and writing. The final 28 were chosen “based on their achievements, impact and legacy”.

Clare legend Anthony Daly joins Antrim’s new hurling management team
CLARE hurling legend Anthony Daly has agreed to join Antrim’s new senior hurling management team. The double All-Ireland winner met with Antrim officials over recent weeks and will be part of Neal Peden’s backroom team. It is understood new Tipperary hurling boss Liam Sheedy, who assisted Antrim over the last two seasons, helped persuade Daly into helping the Ulstermen. Antrim officials scoured the country for a new manager after Terence McNaughton and Dominic McKinley stepped down at the end of last season. Talks were held with Daly and Anthony Cunningham, with the latter agreeing to become Roscommon’s next senior football manager. Daly, who has been involved with Kilmacud Crokes this season and saw them lose a county decider to Ballyboden, is sure to fire the imagination of Antrim Gaels. A totemic presence in the famous Clare team of the mid-1990s, Daly was also linked with a return to the Dublin set-up following the resignation of Pat Gilroy a couple of months ago. … [Read more...] about Clare legend Anthony Daly joins Antrim’s new hurling management team
