US President, Donald Trump has just signed a new and updated executive order banning immigration from six Muslim-majority countries, notably dropping Iraq from January's previous order.   The new travel ban comes six weeks after Trump's original executive order was rolled out amid chaos and confusion at airports in the United States and eventually blocked by a federal court.  The new executive order still temporary bans Syria, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen. And it won't take effect till March 16th. And it doesn't affect green card holders and those with valid visas. Hopefully, US federal judges will stop this too. What do you think about the Trump's new ban?   Comment below.....

According to Sports Illustrated, Retired welterweight boxing champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. had one of his cars set on fire during a visit to the United Kingdom, according to multiple media reports.

The "Living for Love" singer took to Instagram to share a cute video of her adopted twins, 4-year-old daughters Stelle and Estere, playing on the keyboard in matching black-and-gold T-shirts.

The post came shortly after she shared a snap of herself lying on the grass, soaking up the warm California sunshine with her two girls by her side. Judging by her caption, it sounds like she's already given her new squad a nickname: "Beverly Hillbillies!"

The F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, has asked the Justice Department to reject President Trump’s claim that former President, Barack Obama had ordered the wiretapping of his phones at the Trump Towers, senior American officials said on Sunday.
Comey said that the claim is false and must be corrected, because Trump has no evidence to back it up and it insinuates that the F.B.I. broke the law, but the department has not responded to Comey's request yet.

Comey refuting Trump’s claim shows a remarkable rebuke of a sitting president, putting the nation’s top law enforcement officials in the position of questioning the truthfulness of the leader of the free world.

Comey is understandably worried about the potential attacks on F.B.I.'s credibility if it's proven that indeed they wire tapped Trump Towers.

A photo of Hillary Clinton reading the Indianapolis Star report about Mike Pence using a private email account while he was governor of Indiana has gone viral online. Remember, during the 2016 presidential elections, Hilary's campaign was largely plagued with reports and investigations of her use of a private server while she was Secretary of state. 
Now it's the Republican under fire.
