A Latina comes to the defense of a Muslim couple being verbally harassed on the New York subway
A young Latina who came to the aid of a Muslim couple who were being verbally harassed by a passenger aboard a crowded New York City subway train is being praised for standing up for the pair.

President Trump sat down Wednesday for an interview with Fox News’ Tucker Carlson, and Carlson asked him to respond to criticisms that the Republican health care plan favors the healthy and hurts most of the voters who supported his election. Trump didn’t hesitate to agree that that is exactly what it does. Here’s the full exchange, which speaks for itself: CARLSON: This bill has as one of its centerpieces a tax-cut for investors that would primarily benefit people making over $250,000 a year.

Starved teen was found in diaper inside waste-infested house: cops
When police and medics found Natalie Jasmine Finn in late October, the 16-year-old Iowa teen was wearing an adult diaper, lying on a linoleum floor in her own waste “for some time,” according to court documents unsealed this week. Finn shared the empty room, without furniture or beds, with two of her siblings and scores of dogs and cats that had run of the home, West Des Moines Police Det. Chris Morgan wrote in an affidavit. It smelled of human and animal waste, with blankets “heavily soaked” in what authorities believed to be urine, according to Morgan. “Many animals roamed freely, including well over a dozen kittens and cats,” Morgan wrote in the document obtained by the Des Moines Register.

Watch: Brazilian robbers pick on the wrong Mormon missionary
A newly released dramatic video captures two would-be robbers in the streets of Brazil being undone by a Mormon missionary from the United States, who disarms one man and pummels another with punches. “The missionary feared for his life and reacted,” Eric Hawkins, spokesman for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, headquartered in Salt Lake City, told The Washington Post late Wednesday. A surveillance video of the incident, which happened over the weekend, shows a motorcycle carrying two men stopping near two of the church’s missionaries as they walked down a street in Manaus in the distinctive white shirt and black tie worn on missions. One man jumps off the bike, confronts the missionaries and then brandishes a gun.
