					<description><![CDATA[They are young and old: a high school student who can&#8217;t yet vote, a Vietnam vet who did so proudly. They hail from all corners of the United States and very different walks of life: a &#8220;downhome boy&#8221; from Kentucky, a third-generation Mexican-American from Texas, a stay-at-home mom in Pennsylvania, an Iranian immigrant in Los Angeles. Some oppose Donald Trump and all that he stands for, while others voted enthusiastically for him. Now, they are critiquing him. One hundred days&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[After weeks on the defensive, President Donald Trump has stepped up his efforts to dispute, downplay and distract from revelations stemming from the investigations into the Kremlin&#8217;s interference in last year&#8217;s election and possible Russian ties to his campaign associates. The White House says the real story is not about Russia — it&#8217;s about how Obama administration officials allegedly leaked and mishandled classified material about Americans. Trump and his aides have accused former officials of inappropriately disclosing — or &#8220;unmasking&#8221;&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Teachers from elementary school through college are telling students how to distinguish between factual and fictional news — and why they should care that there&#8217;s a difference. As Facebook works with The Associated Press, FactCheck.org and other organizations to curb the spread of fake and misleading news on its influential network, teachers say classroom instruction can play a role in deflating the kind of &#8220;Pope endorses Trump&#8221; headlines that muddied the waters during the 2016 presidential campaign. &#8220;I think only&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[President Donald Trump&#8216;s assertion that the media often fails to cover terrorist attacks is false, but he&#8217;s hardly alone in making the claim. The statement is just the latest by Trump to echo a website known for trafficking in dubious allegations of plots and cover-ups. &#8220;You&#8217;ve seen what happened in Paris and Nice. All over Europe it&#8217;s happening. It&#8217;s gotten to a point where it&#8217;s not even being reported. And in many cases, the very, very dishonest press doesn&#8217;t want&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[A man who President Donald Trump has promoted as an authority on voter fraud was registered to vote in multiple states during the 2016 presidential election, the Associated Press has learned. Gregg Phillips, whose unsubstantiated claim that the election was marred by 3 million illegal votes was tweeted by the president, was listed on the rolls in Alabama, Texas and Mississippi, according to voting records and election officials in those states. He voted only in Alabama in November, records show.&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Donald Trump&#8216;s election as president has made many small business owners more upbeat about 2017. Dean Bingham says he&#8217;s cautiously optimistic because business picked up at his auto repair shop after the election — people who had put off fixing their cars have decided it&#8217;s time to get them serviced. &#8220;Over the last month, customers have been coming in with optimism that they didn&#8217;t have the last few years,&#8221; says Bingham, owner of a Mr. Transmission/Milex franchise in Greenville, South&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The drama, disputes and falsehoods that permeated Donald Trump&#8216;s presidential campaign are now roiling his transition to the White House, forcing aides to defend his baseless assertions of illegal voting and sending internal fights spilling into public. On Monday, a recount effort, led by Green Party candidate Jill Stein and joined by Hillary Clinton&#8216;s campaign also marched on in three states, based partly on the Stein campaign&#8217;s unsubstantiated assertion that cyberhacking could have interfered with electronic voting machines.
