NO- CONFIDENCE VOTE OUSTS PAKISTANI LEADER KHAN

-

ISLAMABAD » Pakistan’s political opposition ousted the country’s embattled prime minister early today in a no- confidence vote, which it won after several of Imran Khan’s allies and a key coalition party deserted him.

The opposition that spans the political spectrum from the left to the radically religious will form the new government, with the head of one of the largest parties, the Pakistani Muslim League, taking over as prime minister.

Anticipati­ng his loss, Khan, who charged the opposition colluded with the United States to unseat him, has called on his supporters to stage rallies nationwide today. Khan’s options are limited, and should he see a big turnout in his support, he may try to keep the momentum of street protests as a way to pressure Parliament to hold early elections.

Khan had tried to sidestep the vote by dissolving Parliament and calling early elections, but a Supreme Court ruling ordered the vote to go- ahead.

Trump endorses Dr. Oz in Pennsylvan­ia Senate race.

Wading into a tight Republican Senate primary in Pennsylvan­ia, former President Donald Trump endorsed Mehmet Oz on Saturday, throwing his weight behind the former star of “The Dr. Oz Show,” who has been attacked by rivals as a closet liberal. Oz’s celebrity appears to have been a deciding factor for the former president, whose own political career was grounded in reality television.

“I have known Dr. Oz for many years, as have many others, even if only through his very successful television show,” Trump said in an announceme­nt, upstaging a rally he was holding at the same time in North Carolina, where his endorsemen­t of Rep. Ted Budd in a tight Republican Senate race is considered crucial.

“He has lived with us through the screen and has always been popular, respected and smart,”

Trump added. He cited an appearance he had made on Oz’s show in the 2016 presidenti­al race.
