It doesn't matter that Washington and Beijing have reached an inconclusive and temporary truce in Mr. Trump's trade war. The U.S. president immediately claimed it as a win, but that only underlines the fundamental problem for the Trump administration and America: a shortsighted focus on inconsequential skirmishes as the larger war with China is being decisively lost. Mr. Trump is taking a wrecking ball to the pillars of American power and innovation. His tariffs are endangering U.S. companies' access to global markets and supply chains. He is slashing public research funding and gutting our universities, pushing talented researchers to consider leaving for other countries. He wants to roll back programs for technologies like clean energy and semiconductor manufacturing and is wiping out American soft power in large swaths of the globe.
When a passenger jet roaring down the runway toward takeoff at New York's LaGuardia Airport had to slam on the brakes earlier this month because another plane was still on the runway, Renee Hoffer and all the other passengers were thrown forward in their seats. Hoffer wound up in the emergency room the next day after the near miss on May 6 because her neck started hurting and her left arm went numb. "The stop was as hard as any car accident I've been in," Hoffer said. Both the Federal Aviation Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board said Monday that they are investigating the incident in which a Republic Airways jet had to abort takeoff and slam to a stop because a United Airlines plane was still taxiing across the runway. The close call happened despite the airport being equipped with an advanced surface radar system that's designed to help prevent such close calls.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio refused to say that Russian President Vladimir Putin was a "war criminal," even though he admitted war crimes had been committed during the invasion of Ukraine. At a Wednesday House hearing, Rep. Bill Keating (D-MA) pressed Rubio for answers about Putin's role in war crimes against Ukraine. "The person we're negotiating with, Vladimir Putin, is he a war criminal?" Keating asked. "Well, I think you can look at instances that have happened there and certainly characterize them as war crimes, but our intent is to end the war," Rubio said. "Is he a war criminal?" Keating repeated. "We can't end the war without talking to Mr. Putin," Rubio replied.
