WORLD IN BRIEF
And yet with all of the chaos in Washington, supporters in
Grays Harbor now have differing degrees of faith that Trump will
keep his promise to rescue places like this. As one says: “Has he
done anything good yet? Has he?”

Damaged USS John S. McCain
arrives in Singapore; 10 missing
SINGAPORE — The USS John S. McCain guided missile
destroyer docked Monday at Singapore’s naval base with “signif-
icant damage” to its hull after an early morning collision with an
oil tanker, as vessels from several nations searched for 10 miss-
ing U.S. sailors.
The collision east of Singapore between the destroyer and the
600-foot Alnic MC, which has recent safety violations, was the
second involving a ship from the U.S. Navy’s 7th Fleet in the
Pacific in two months.
Vessels and aircraft from the U.S., Indonesia, Singapore and
Malaysia are searching for the missing sailors. Four sailors were
evacuated by a Singaporean navy helicopter to a hospital in
the city-state for treatment of non-life threatening injuries, the
Navy said. A fifth injured sailor did not require further medical
attention.
The McCain had been heading to Singapore on a routine port
visit after conducting a sensitive freedom-of-navigation opera-
tion last week by sailing near one of China’s man-made islands
in the South China Sea.
The Navy’s 7th Fleet said damage to the McCain’s hull
flooded adjacent compartments including crew berths, machin-
ery and communications rooms. A damage control response pre-
vented further flooding, it said.
Trump to outline Afghan
strategy in national TV address
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump will use a nation-
ally televised address to outline for a war-weary nation the strat-
egy he believes will best position the U.S. to eventually declare
victory in Afghanistan after 16 years of combat and lives lost.
The speech Monday night will also give Trump a chance for a
reset after one of the most difficult weeks of his short presidency.
Trump tweeted Saturday that he had reached a decision on
the way forward in Afghanistan, a day after he reviewed war
options with his national security team at a meeting at Camp
David, Maryland. The president offered no clues about whether
he would send thousands more U.S. troops into Afghanistan or
exercise his authority as commander in chief to order that they be
withdrawn from America’s longest war.
But signs pointed in the direction of Trump continuing the
U.S. commitment there.
The top U.S. commander in Afghanistan on Sunday hailed the
launch of the Afghan Army’s new special operations corps and
declared that “we are with you and we will stay with you.”
US and S. Korean troops start
drills amid N. Korea standoff
SEOUL, South Korea — U.S. and South Korean troops
kicked off their annual drills Monday that come after President
Jerry Lewis, Hollywood survivor,
showman, dies at the age of 91

The USS John S. McCain was docked at Singapore’s naval
base with ‘significant damage’ to its hull after an early morn-
ing collision with the oil tanker Alnic MC as vessels from
several nations searched Monday for missing U.S. sailors.
Donald Trump and North Korea exchanged warlike rhetoric in
the wake of the North’s two intercontinental ballistic missile tests
last month.
The Ulchi Freedom Guardian drills are largely computer-sim-
ulated war games held every summer and have drawn furious
responses from North Korea, which views them as an invasion
rehearsal. Pyongyang’s state media on Sunday called this year’s
drills a “reckless” move that could trigger the “uncontrollable
phase of a nuclear war.”
Despite the threat, U.S. and South Korean militaries launched
this year’s 11-day training on Monday morning as scheduled.
The exercise involves 17,500 American troops and 50,000 South
Korean soldiers, according to the U.S. military command in
South Korea and Seoul’s Defense Ministry.
No field training like live-fire exercises or tank maneuvering
is involved in the Ulchi drills, in which alliance officers sit at
computers to practice how they engage in battles and hone their
decision-making capabilities. The allies have said the drills are
defensive in nature.
South Korea’s President Moon Jae-in said Monday that North
Korea must not use the drills as a pretext to launch fresh provo-
cation, saying the training is held regularly because of repeated
provocations by North Korea.
Trump won places drowning in
despair. Can he save them?
ABERDEEN, Wash. — Across the country last Election
Day, Donald Trump disproportionately won communities suffer-
ing so-called deaths of despair — from drugs, alcohol and sui-
cide wrought by the decimation of jobs that used to bring dig-
nity. Grays Harbor County, Washington, is one of those places.
The community, once among the most reliably Democratic in the
nation, swung Republican in a presidential election for the first
time in 90 years. It suffers from high rates of drug and alcohol
addiction, suicides and early death, and many here are looking to
Trump for help.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. —
A Missouri lawmaker who
drew bipartisan outrage over
her brief Facebook comment
expressing hope that Presi-
dent Donald Trump would be
assassinated apologized pub-
licly Sunday to Trump and his
family, calling the online post-
ing “a mistake.”
But state Sen. Maria Chap-
pelle-Nadal, a black Dem-
ocrat, said she has no plans
to resign as numerous top
Republicans and Democrats
in Missouri have insisted since
Thursday’s post in which she
wrote “I hope Trump is assas-
sinated!” Gov. Eric Greitens
and Lt. Gov. Mike Parson,
both Republicans, said Friday
that state senators should oust
her.
“I made a mistake, and I’m
owning up to it. And I’m not
ever going to make a mistake
like that again. I have learned
my lesson. My judge and my
jury is my Lord, Jesus Christ,”
Chappelle-Nadal, who later
deleted from post from her
personal Facebook page,
told reporters at a church in
Ferguson.
She had asked media out-
lets to not publish the news
conference’s location before-
hand because she’d received
death threats since the post.
“President Trump, I apolo-
gize to you and your family,”
she added. She walked out and
didn’t take any questions after
delivering her three-minute
statement.
Chappelle-Nadal’s
post
was in response to one that
suggested Vice President Mike
Pence would try to have Trump
removed from office. She
has said she made the com-
ment out of frustration with
the Republican president’s
response to the recent white
nationalist rally and violence
in Charlottesville, Virginia, for
which Trump said “both sides”
shared some blame.
Chappelle-Nadal
was
later questioned by the U.S.
Secret Service as part of its
investigation into her remarks.
She has told The Associated
Press that she let the fed-
eral law enforcement agency
know she “had no intentions
of hurting anyone or trying to
get other people to hurt any-
one at all.”
With no grand prize winner,
Powerball jackpot grows to $650M
Powerball officials say there was no grand prize winner in the
latest drawing, meaning one of the nation’s largest lottery jack-
pots will continue growing.
Maura McCann of the New Hampshire Lottery says no
ticket matched all six numbers following Saturday night’s draw-
ing. The winning numbers are: 17, 19, 39, 43, 68 and Powerball
13.
The new jackpot for Wednesday’s drawing is $650 million,
which would be the third-largest jackpot in U.S. history.
The prize has grown so large because no one has matched all
six balls in more than two months, so the jackpot has grown after
every drawing.
The odds of winning the giant prize is one in 292.2 million.
Powerball is played in 44 states as well as Washington, D.C.,
Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Civil War
State senator who hoped for Trump
assassination in post apologizes
By JIM SUHR
Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Jerry Lewis epitomized what it meant to
be a survivor in Hollywood.
Through ups and downs in popularity, health troubles
and weight fluctuations and the sorts of seismic shifts that take
place over decades in the entertainment industry, Lewis always
figured out a way to battle back, to reinvent himself, to stay
relevant. It’s what enduring stars know how to do instinctively;
perhaps it’s that very drive that makes them stars in the first
place.
Through it all, Lewis remained the consummate showman,
and his distinctive comic legacy surely will continue to survive
for decades to come. The manic, rubber-faced performer who
jumped and hollered to fame in a stage, radio, TV and film part-
nership with Dean Martin, settled to become a self-conscious
auteur in movies he wrote, produced and directed, and found new
fame as the tireless, teary host of the annual muscular dystrophy
telethons, died Sunday at home in Las Vegas surrounded by fam-
ily. He was 91.
Lewis, who had battled the lung disease pulmonary fibrosis,
heart issues, a debilitating back problem and addiction to pain
killers, died of natural causes, according to his publicist.
His career spanned the history of show business in the 20th
century, beginning in his parents’ vaudeville act at the age of 5.
He was just 20 when his pairing with Martin made them inter-
national stars. After their cold parting in 1956, Lewis made such
favorites as “The Bellboy” and “The Nutty Professor,” was fea-
tured in Martin Scorsese’s “The King of Comedy” and appeared
as himself in Billy Crystal’s “Mr. Saturday Night.” In the 1990s,
he scored a stage comeback as the devil in the Broadway revival
of “Damn Yankees.”
