NEW YORK (AP) — Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio have come under fire over a comedy skit that some people feel was racially insensitive.
Clinton, just days before the crucial New York primary, was a surprise guest during the mayor's performance at the annual Inner Circle show in Manhattan on Saturday night, a black-tie charity gala that is the city's answer to the White House Correspondents Dinner.
WASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker Paul Ryan plans to definitively rule out a bid for president this year, amid persistent speculation that he could emerge as the GOP nominee from a contested Republican convention.
The Wisconsin Republican scheduled a mid-afternoon statement Tuesday at the Republican National Committee to disavow any interest in the presidency this year. An aide confirmed the content of his remarks, demanding anonymity to discuss them ahead of time.
