It was sold in 2014 for more than $5 million. Obama has said he and his family will remain in Washington home after he departs 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in January 2017, a change from most former p...

Trump .   (Photo: Getty Images) No one had more fun than Will Smith rapping (in Spanish!) at the Latin Grammy Awards on Thursday night. But the performance Twitter couldn't stop buzzing about belonged to California band  Los Tigres del Norte  and Mexican rockers Maná, who got together and sang  Somos Más Americanos . At the end of the performance, they held up a sign reading, "Latinos unidos no voten por los racistas," which translates to, "United Latinos: Don't vote for racists." ...
