COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump continues to blame protesters, the media and even Democratic rival Bernie Sanders for an increasingly caustic campaign environment.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Republican presidential candidate John Kasich has reversed his months-long practice of avoiding the topic of his GOP rival Donald Trump. Kasich asked a crowd in Hanoverton, Ohio Sunday night, "Do we go to the dark side, with negativity, the gnashing of teeth ... or do we go to the hopeful and the light side?" Ted Cruz told NBC's "Meet the Press" that he was troubled by Trump asking people at his rallies to raise their hand and pledge support. Cruz said, "This is America. We don't pledge allegiance to a man. We pledge allegiance to a flag."

The monsignor and two other people affiliated with a papal reform commission are also on trial. The first testimony is expected this week.
YOKOHAMA, Japan (AP) — Toyota says it's working with local Japanese governments to make hydrogen from wind-power electricity. Toyota is trying to answer the main criticism of fuel cell cars: That making the hydrogen for the fuel is not clean. Fuel cells are zero-emission, running on the power created when hydrogen combines with oxygen in the air to make water. But to have a totally clean supply chain, the hydrogen must also be cleanly made.
