| Pro-tip: Don't call tonight's speech a State of the Union address | | President Trump plans to use his first address to Congress to outline an ambitious — and contested — agenda that ranges from tax cuts and regulation rollbacks to road projects and a proposed 10% hike in defense spending. You'll recall his Inauguration Day address , in which Trump portrayed the United States as a nation in decline, using rhetoric that did not always match reality. Will we get a repeat? "All I can do is speak from the heart and say what I want to do," Trump said during an interview with "Fox & Friends." The address is scheduled for 9:10 p.m. ET.

Yes, the flub was a huge deal but the importance of "Moonlight" is even bigger, and it didn't get the moment it deserved . 1) It's the first winner to tell a story primarily about black people that isn't about focused on racism, the civil rights movement or slavery. 2) It is the first to have a gay protagonist. Media coverage mostly has investigated how such an embarrassing mistake could happen on such a big stage. We're using this moment to make sure we don't lose "Moonlight" in the story of the envelope. |  | | Survey says: New England states, FTW | | The best states to live in are *not* in the South, according to the U.S. News & World Report top 10 Best States report .
