“MEXICAN HERITAGE.” Donald Trump says his racist remarks about a federal judge were “misconstrued”: “It is unfortunate that my comments have been misconstrued as a categorical attack against people of Mexican heritage. I am friends with and employ thousands of people of Mexican and Hispanic descent. The American justice system relies on fair and impartial judges. All judges should be held to that standard. I do not feel that one's heritage makes them incapable of being impartial, but, based on the rulings that I have received in the Trump University civil case, I feel justified in questioning whether I am receiving a fair trial.”

O, CANADA. Our neighbors to the north look to make their national anthem gender neutral: “Bill C-210, which passed 219 to 79, proposes to switch just two words in the lyrics of ‘O Canada' — changing “in all thy sons command” to “in all of us command” in one verse. The simple substitution is meant to do away with the exclusively male phrasing in part of the song, but it's also causing an uproar among some conservative members of Canada's government.”
