Court of Appeal rejects bid to reinstate Trump travel ban

As a furious legal battle erupted over the president's controversial immigration executive order, a defiant Trump declared his team will win 'for the safety of the country' while attending a ritzy Florida gala. The 45th president looked stony-faced and was confident the Department of Justice would win its recent appeal against the Seattle court ruling that temporarily suspended his foreign traveler ban. Trump's policy, which was only in place for a week, sparked worldwide protests before it was swiftly undone by one federal judge on Friday. The president was at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida when the legal mayhem erupted and seemed furious his celebratory weekend was interrupted by the ruling as demonstrators protested him nearby in Palm Beach.

Suspect arrested in murder of Queens jogger Karina Vetrano

Police sources said Saturday they were interrogating a man in the slaying of 30-year-old Karina Vetrano (pictured), who was found raped and strangled in Spring Creek Park, Howard Beach, in August. The man, believed to be in his twenties and from Brooklyn, was first spotted by an off-duty officer acting suspiciously in Howard Beach and later agreed to give a DNA sample, sources said. The suspect had no criminal history, meaning his DNA profile wasn't part of law enforcement databases. He was being held and questioned Saturday night outside of Howard Beach.

'I'm here to swallow gum and take names': Melissa McCarthy undergoes incredible transformation to play a blustering Press Secretary Sean Spicer to showstopping effect on SNL

Just minutes after Alec Baldwin returned to NBC studios as President Donald Trump, Melissa McCarthy surprised the audience by coming on stage to play a blustering Sean Spicer. McCarthy used the opportunity to mock some of Spicer's more controversial attributes, namely his use of 'alternative facts' and contentious relationship with the press. In her opening remarks as the Press Secretary, she says: 'Before we begin, I know the press and myself have gotten off to a rocky start. 'When I say rocky I mean in the sense of "Rocky" the movie because I came out here to punch you in the face, and also I don't talk so good.' Later, in an impersonation of Spicer taking questions from the press, he quickly grows frustrated at journalists asking about the role of chief strategist and key adviser Steve Bannon, turning to toys to explain the President's executive order.

Donald Trump 'avoids holding Melania's hand in public because he wants to look like a presidential alpha,' says body language expert

The president and first lady had an awkward hand-hold Friday on the tarmac of the Palm Beach International Airport, when Donald Trump appeared to let go of Melania's hand twice. He had just arrived on Air Force One for a visit to his Mar-A-Lago resort. Trump and Melania were holding hands when he first got off the plane. But the president abruptly let go to clap with the well-wishers who were there to greet him. Melania reached for his hand again, at which point he brought her hand up towards him, gave it two pats - and dropped it once more. 'I think he's been saying, "I want to be seen as the president on my own", which is very much alpha,' body language expert Patti Wood told the DailyMail.com. She has noticed a shift in the couple's body language since Trump began his presidential race.

Though the US state department has reversed the cancellations of visas for foreigners, there are still many protests against the ban. Many major cities across the US and world held rallies.

World leaders duped by manipulated global warming data

The Mail on Sunday reveals astonishing evidence that the organisation that is the world's leading source of climate data rushed to publish a landmark paper that exaggerated global warming and was timed to influence the historic Paris Agreement on climate change.

But the whistleblower, Dr John Bates, a top NOAA scientist with an impeccable reputation, has shown The Mail on Sunday irrefutable evidence that the paper was based on misleading, 'unverified' data.
