1. Donald Trump Gives State of the Union Address

2. On February 5, President Donald Trump delivered his second State of the Union Address. The President gave an 82-minute speech as his State of the Union address. The State of the Union Address (sometimes abbreviated to SOTU) is an annual message delivered by the President of the United States to a joint session of the United States Congress at the beginning of each calendar year in office. The message is typically includes a budget message and an economic report of the nation, and also allows the President to propose a legislative agenda and national priorities. It is held in the House of Representatives chamber of the United States Capitol. The reason for the address is to fulfill the requirement in Article II, Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution for the President to periodically "give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient.” During most of the country's first century, the President primarily only submitted a written report to Congress. After 1913, Woodrow Wilson began the regular practice of delivering the address to Congress in person as a way to rally support for the President's agenda.

A man was running by himself Monday in the Horsetooth Mountain Open Space near Fort Collins, Colorado, when he heard something behind him. When he turned around, an 80-pound mountain lion attacked him. The young lion bit the runner's face and wrist but he managed to break free and kill the lion in self-defense by strangling the animal to death. The runner suffered serious injuries and was taken to a hospital but has since been released. Fewer than 20 people have been killed in North America by mountain lions in more than 100 years. Colorado Gov. Jared Polis said that although the runner was able to kill the lion with his "bare hands," others should try to stay away from lions and back away slowly if it's possible.
The discovery of a racist photograph of Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam that appeared on page in the 1984 medical school yearbook was recently released. The photograph shows one person dressed in blackface and another in the KKK's signature white hood and robes. Northam initially apologized for the photo and said he was in it, but in a news conference Saturday, he denied that he was in the image and said he would not resign as governor. "I believe now and then that I am not either of the people in this photo," Northam said. However, he did admit that he had put shoe polish on his face to resemble Michael Jackson in a dance contest in "I look back now and regret that I did not understand the harmful legacy of an action like that," he said. Democrats in Virginia and across the country have called on Northam to resign.
