WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump says he doesn't think congressional Republicans are "that far off" on passing a health overhaul to replace "Obamacare," which he says is dead.

LONDON (AP) — Britain's government says the list of high-rise apartment towers fitted with external cladding that failed fire safety tests has grown to 60. The buildings are spread across 25 areas around the country.

NEW YORK (AP) — Tens of thousands of revelers wrapped in rainbow flags and wearing rainbow tutus and boas marched in San Francisco to celebrate diversity but also to protest prejudice and exclusion. Some party goers celebrating gay pride held signs Sunday that read "No Ban, No Wall, Welcome Sisters and Brothers" while they danced to electronic music at a stage near San Francisco's City Hall. Frank Reyes and his husband Paul Brady said they decided to march because they feel need to stand up for their rights.
