This is AP News Minute.


President-elect Donald Trump 1 held his first press conference since the November election. Trump called a leaked report of Russia having compromising information on him "a tremendous blot 2 on the intelligence community's record" and said his two sons would take over the Trump business empire.


On Capitol Hill, confirmation 3 hearings continue for Trump's cabinet picks. Trump's secretary of state Rex Tillerson began his day of questioning, discussing topics like the Islamic State and Russia, while Trump's attorney general pick Jeff Sessions continued his second day with testimony 4 from his own colleague.


Unexpected winter weather has hit Western states as emergency crews geared up for a more-snow-and-flooding Wednesday. An avalanche 5 blocked a highway in Colorado, trapping three commercial trucks and sweeping 6 down a tangle 7 of trees and rocks in its path.


And researchers in China have identified a new species of gibbon in remote forest among the border of Burma and named it after a Star Wars character, Luke Skywalker. Scientists concluded they add a new species after studying the primate's distinctive 8 brow and genetic 9 analysis.
