IRAN
The United States should expect a "strong slap in the face" if it underestimates Iran's defensive capabilities, a commander of the elite Revolutionary Guards says, as Tehran concludes war games.
IMMIGRATION
Mexico reacts with anger to what one official calls "hostile" new U.S. immigration guidelines as senior Trump administration envoys begin arriving in Mexico City for talks on the volatile issue.
The White House has pushed back the release of a new executive order to replace the directive suspending travel to the United States by citizens of seven mostly Muslim countries to "sometime next week," a White House official says.
PIPELINE PROTEST
A few dozen demonstrators opposed to the Dakota Access pipeline defy a deadline to leave a protest camp they have occupied for months to demand an end to construction of the project, saying they are prepared to be arrested.
GOVERNMENT
Trump says he plans to make the government leaner and more accountable ahead of a meeting with key administration officials to discuss the federal budget.
RUSSIA
Rank-and-file Republicans are more concerned about leaks to the media of conversations between Trump advisers and the Russian government than they are about the conversations themselves, according to a Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll.
ANTI-SEMITISM
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praises Trump for publicly condemning anti-Semitic acts after bomb threats to U.S. Jewish centers and vandalism in a Jewish cemetery.
JOBS
Trump, who has vowed to stop U.S. manufacturing from disappearing overseas, is seeking job-creation advice from at least six companies that are laying off thousands of workers as they shift production abroad.
PRESIDENTIAL SECURITY
It cost New York City about $24 million to provide security at Trump Tower, Trump's skyscraper home in Manhattan, from Election Day to Inauguration Day, or $308,000 a day, New York's police commissioner says.
EPA
Emails released by the Oklahoma attorney general's office show a cozy relationship between energy companies and Scott Pruitt, who was the state's top prosecutor before being sworn in last week as the new chief U.S. environmental regulator, a media watchdog group says.
