The 125% tariff rate on China comes after China retaliated in an escalating trade war between the two largest economies in the world.

The attack killed Ghassan Najjar and ... continua

The agency, known as DOGE, is tasked with slashing “trillions” of dollars in federal spending and has set its sights on regulatory agencies, including ones that have opened investigations into Musk’s business practices. “At a minimum, it’s an appearance of conflict of interest,” says journalist Eric Lipton, who is investigating Musk and DOGE for The New York Times. Musk’s business empire is a major beneficiary of government contracts, says Lipton, and ... continua
