The HillDonald Trump’s election as president has discomforted many foreign leaders, especially in Iran. Iranian President Hassan Rouhani claimed Wednesday that there is “no possibility” for the Obama administration’s nuclear deal with Iran to be overturned by Trump, despite Trump’s threat to do so. This is an outright lie. President Barack Obama purposely structured the deal as an executive agreement to make an end-run around Congress, which he knew would oppose the flawed and risky deal. After his inauguration, Trump would have the authority to revoke the executive agreement. Trump has called the deal “disastrous” and said his “No. 1 priority” would be to dismantle it.

CBS NewsDear Amy: My husband has become very good friends with a guy I have known for years from my small town. They treasure the friendship, and share a love for a certain sport. The friend is going through a divorce. Recently when I was unable to get ahold of my husband, I reached out to him to ask if he had seen him. We texted a few times that day about a gift I wanted to get my husband for their sport. He advised me to erase the messages. He said he didn’t know how my husband would take us texting (no matter how innocent). I told him I couldn’t imagine he’d have an issue with it. He replied, “You must have never told him about us?!” I had a fleeting thought when they started hanging out that I might

Yahoo Finance VideoFederal regulators say that they are concerned that AT&T's exempting its DirecTV unit from cellphone data caps could hurt competition. AT&T lets customers watch video on DirecTV apps on their AT&T cellphones without eating into monthly data allotments.

The FCC says other companies could have to pay AT&T a lot to get the same "zero rating" for their services. AT&T executive Bob Quinn says in a statement that letting people watch video without
ABC NewsSometimes, compassion comes from the places we least expect it. For example, Carol and Julien Pearce were once award-winning goat cheese producers of over 20 years who transformed their dairy farm into a sanctuary for goats and other rescued farm animals. You would think, of all people, that a hunter would not extend any feelings of compassion to a wild animal in need and yet when Volkan Bal, a bird hunter came across a wounded deer, that is exactly what he did. Bal had been hunting with a group of friends when they heard the sound of a roe deer crying out in pain. Though their population is steadily increasing, roe deer are an endangered species, so Bal and his friends were interested in seeing
