Good morning. It's Wednesday, March 1. Heralding a "new chapter of American greatness," President Trump issued a broad call Tuesday night for overhauling the nation's health care system and significantly boosting military spending, adopting a restrained tone as he addressed Congress for the first time.

An Orange County sheriff's deputy was in stable condition after being shot while serving a warrant Tuesday; the gunman was shot and killed by other deputies.

See a video of Giles Barnes promising to bring excitement to Orlando City.
