This is AP News Minute.

Despite the rebuke¹ of Massachusetts Senator Elisabeth Warren for criticizing colleague and attorney general-designate Jeff Sessions with the words of Coretta Scott King from three decades ago, other Democrats² quoted King in speeches on Wednesday. Senators Bernie Sanders and Tom Udall both read passages of the letter on the Senator floor.

Panamanian authorities say a 23-year-old U.S. tourist has been found dead on a Caribbean island. Officials said the body of Catherine Johannet of New York was found on Sunday on a trail in a wooded area not far from a beach on Bastimentos Island.

Somalia has declared a new president on Wednesday. Former prime minister Mohamed Abdullahi Farmajo took the oath of office as the long-chaotic country moved toward its first fully³ functioning central government in a quarter-century.

And three Malayan tiger cubs⁴ are being cared for in the Cincinnati Zoo's nursery. The zoo says nursery staffers step in to help the cubs warm up and feed, as the first-time mother's maternal⁵ instincts didn't kick in immediately.
