3. Jeff Sessions, making his first official speech as U.S. attorney general, promised a get-tough approach to drug trafficking and illegal immigration.
Mr. Trump is expected to emphasize the same theme, which forms the backbone of a vision of remaking America shared by Mr. Sessions and Stephen Bannon, the chief White House strategist.
Today’s episode of The Daily podcast explores the roles those men played in shaping Mr. Trump’s immigration policy, and also continues the story of a young Afghan refugee who made a dash for the U.S. Listen from a computer, on an iOS device or on an Android device.

6. The leader of Samsung was indicted in the corruption scandal that led to the impeachment of South Korea’s president, setting the stage for a trial that will test the traditional impunity of the family-owned conglomerates that dominate the economy.

7. Colorectal cancers, considered a disease of the aging, are on the rise in adults in their 20s and 30s.
The spike, at a time when rates of the disease are on the wane in older people, is both baffling and worrisome, scientists say.
Diagnosis is sometimes delayed as the disease advances, because doctors simply don’t suspect that a young patient with digestive complaints like diarrhea or constipation, cramping and abdominal pain, or bloody stool could have cancer.

8. France is infamous for its perennial obsession with Frenchness — and now with the fear of its demise.
In many towns, shoppers have been flocking to newly built shopping center, leaving the historic city centers decaying and pocked with commercial vacancies — much as U.S. main streets were hollowed out decades ago.
“We’ve lost that conviviality that was our signature,” a city councilman in southern France said. “Before, each little neighborhood had its own center, with its own cafe. All that has disappeared.”

10. Did you hear about the selfie-taking museum visitor who tripped over an exhibit and broke an $800,000 sculpture?
Happily, the reality appears to be less dramatic. The Hirshhorn Museum in Washington confirmed that a visitor to “Yayoi Kusama: Infinity Mirrors,” one of most popular in the museum’s history, accidentally damaged a glowing pumpkin.
But a replacement is on the way, and there was no confirmation of what the visitor was doing. “It was very much an accident,” a museum spokeswoman said.
