The Guardian:
What is "covfefe"? At the risk of killing the joke, it was a typo of the word "coverage". However, the internet went off on it in a lighthearted way. The article above shows a bunch of tweets ridiculing the president's error, but my personal favorite:

UPDATE: Even Trump himself is having fun with it:

CNN:
A huge explosion hit near foreign embassies in Kabul on Wednesday morning, killing at least 80 people and injuring 300 others, the Afghan health ministry said.Anyone who reads me knows I have a policy against reporting on terrorist actions. This is NOT a terrorist act.
Multiple countries are currently occupying Afghanistan, with the U.S. leading the occupation. Ergo, this is an act of rebellion, no different than what the French Resistance did against the German occupiers in World War II. These are people fighting inside their own country against foreign occupiers. Whether you agree with them or not, let us be honest about what is happening here.
Continuing:
The blast was caused by a suicide attack, according to Najib Danish, a spokesman for the interior ministry.Replace "Afghanistan" with "France", and that German comment could have been made in World War II.
It hit about 400 yards from the German Embassy, and was in a water delivery truck, according to journalist Jennifer Glasse.
German Foreign Minister Sigmar Gabriel said the attack was in the "immediate vicinity" of the nation's embassy.
"The attack was aimed at civilians and those who are in Afghanistan to work with the people there for a better future of the country," Gabriel said. "In the attack, officials of the German embassy were also injured. In the meantime, all employees are safe."
Finally...
Washington Times:
When Maureen Erickson registered to vote in Prince William County, she listed her home address as a street in Guatemala, in what should have been a very strong indication that she wasn’t a regular Virginia resident.I wonder if the Leftist media would care if those noncitizens were Russian?
Yet she remained on the voting rolls for years, and even cast ballots in 14 different elections, up through the 2008 presidential contest. She was only purged in 2012, just ahead of the election, after she self-reported as a noncitizen, according to a new report released Tuesday by the Public Interest Legal Foundation.
Ms. Erickson was one of more than 5,500 noncitizens who were registered to vote in Virginia this decade, and were only bumped from the rolls after they admitted to being ineligible. Some 1,852 of them even managed to cast ballots that were likely illegal, though undetected, the PILF, a conservative voter integrity group, said in its report.
