The consequences of the U.S.-China trade war are starting to emerge. The economic interdependence built up over decades is now being reversed, leaving everyone worse off. US-China trade tensions have negatively affected consumers as well as many producers in both countries. The tariffs have reduced trade between the US and China, but the bilateral trade deficit remains broadly unchanged. While the impact on global growth is relatively modest at this time, the latest escalation could significantly dent business and financial market sentiment, disrupt global supply chains, and jeopardize the projected recovery in global growth in 2019.

How do you keep migrating birds off a giant toxic lake? The Berkeley Pit on the edge of Butte, Montana, is a huge, defunct copper mine that has become one of the world’s largest bodies of acid mine drainage-tainted water. Unfortunately, it also offers a tempting, and deadly, landing spot for migratory birds, a combination that killed some 3,000 snow geese in 2016.

A Change of Power in Türkiye (Formerly Turkey) Would Bring Significant Shifts in Security and Defense, But if Erdoğan wins another five-year term, the script is already written.

What’s really going on between China and Russia. Behind the scenes, they’re deepening their defense partnership. Chinese President Xi Jinping arrived in Moscow Monday for a three-day state visit to Russia. Relations between the two countries have grown closer over the past year as China’s imports of Russian oil have increased and both countries seek to undercut the U.S. on the world stage.

Expelled Tenn. lawmaker started by stopping an oil pipeline: Justin J.
Pearson used a bullhorn to help fight a pipeline project, but it got him ejected by Republican lawmakers from the Tennessee House of Representatives. Backlash from the unprecedented political retribution has vaulted the pair to national prominence and given them a platform far larger than before they were ejected. Now they’re being represented by Attorney General Eric Holder.

Federal prosecutors won’t pursue charges against anyone over the death of American tourist Shanquella Robinson in Mexico last year. Robinson’s family wrote to President Biden calling for justice after a video showed her being beaten prior to her death. Robinson’s family was initially told by friends that she died from alcohol poisoning, according to attorneys, but her death certificate later listed the causes as severe spinal cord injury and atlas luxation, a form of severe neck injury.

Paper Doll Politics: The recent rulings on access to the abortion pill assume women should have no agency over their own lives: If you take Matthew Kacsmaryk’s lengthy opinion last week ordering a stay of the FDA’s long-standing approval of the abortion medication mifepristone at its word, there are only two kinds of women in the country: the slutty ones and the stupid ones. Women still deserve whatever it is they get, and somehow also need to be protected from whatever it is they want.

The FDA Should Not Enforce the 5th Circuit’s Indefensible Abortion Pill Decision: The agency has no obligation to impose the court’s orders, and doctors have no duty to follow them. the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals partially vindicated Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk’s lawless and unprecedented decision attempting to cut off access to mifepristone, the first drug in a medication abortion. Even the 5th Circuit could not defend Kacsmaryk’s attempt to revoke the Food and Drug Administration’s approval of the drug, which it granted in 2000.
