					<description><![CDATA[The FBI has been reviewing the handling of thousands of terrorism-related tips and leads from the past three years to make sure they were properly investigated and no obvious red flags were missed, The Associated Press has learned. The review follows attacks by people who were once on the FBI&#8217;s radar but who have been accused in the past 12 months of massacring innocents in an Orlando, Florida, nightclub, injuring people on the streets of New York City, and gunning&#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[Jim Mattis is not lonely in the Pentagon, but two months into his tenure as secretary of defense not a single political appointee has joined him. The retired Marine general, who took office just hours after President Donald Trump was sworn in, has sparred with the White House over choices for high-priority civilian positions that, while rarely visible to the public, are key to developing and implementing defense policy at home and abroad.

					<description><![CDATA[President associated Donald Trump&#8216;s speech Saturday at the headquarters of the Central Intelligence Agency turned into the latest battle in, as he put it, his &#8220;running war with the media.&#8221; He had two central complaints: that the media misrepresented the size of the crowd at his inauguration and that it was incorrectly reported a bust of Martin Luther King Jr. was removed from the Oval Office.
