The U.S. is imposing a 25% tariff on Korea because of trade deficits that it claims are "engendered by Korea's Tariff and Non Tariff, Policies and Trade Barriers." But Korea has a free trade agreement with the U.S. It charges zero tariffs on nearly everything.

Exclusive: The White House is looking to replace Pete Hegseth as defense secretary This comes as Hegseth is again mired in controversy over sharing military operational details in a group chat.

Alongside all the concerns about Pete Hegseth's character and competence, I've worried most about whether he'd follow an unlawful order from Trump for the US military to use force at home. When it's time to confirm the next Sec of Defense, the Senate must hold the nominee to a very high standard.

Trump Live Updates: U.S. and El Salvador Won’t Return Wrongly Deported Man

I remain in awe of the blatant cruelty of the Trump admin. Policy change and even disruption to a degree is understandable. But why is it so intentionally cruel? Is this what the US has been reduced to? Is the country devoid of empathy? 1/

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

How ​South Korea’s Democracy Prevailed Over a Reckless Leader (Gift Article) The rise and fall of Yoon Suk Yeol exposed a vulnerability in South Korean democracy, but also a resilience. Its people were always ready to fight for it.

Here's a story from South Korea that can inspire the "Hands Off!" events taking place in the United States: how a mix of street protests and responsive democratic institutions prevailed in a political crisis.

Trump says there's 'communication' with N.K. leader Kim | Yonhap News Agency By Song Sang-ho WASHINGTON, March 31 (Yonhap) -- U.S. President Donald Trump said Monday...

Trump's latest vague comments on Kim Jong Un will add to worries in S Korea about being bypassed in any potential US-N Korea diplomacy, especially with the fate of impeached and suspended SK president Yoon still uncertain. Trump might hold off on N Korea until S Korea has a president in power again.

DPK leader to strengthen grip on party following court's acquittal Rep. Lee Jae-myung, leader of the main opposition Democratic Party of Korea (DPK), was found not guilty of violating the election law, in a ruling that could remove long-running le...

The court victory yesterday for South Korea's Democratic Party leader smooths the way for him to run again for the presidency. But further cases against him are pending, and the real cliffhanger is this: when will the Constitutional Court decide the fate of impeached and suspended president Yoon?

Mark Kelly is a retired Navy pilot, astronaut, and dedicated public servant. He is a hero.

Elon Musk is a self-absorbed coward.

Hope that clears things up.

‘A spectacle to horrify the world’: what the papers say about Trump and Vance’s meeting with Zelenskyy The shocking and unprecedented scenes in the Oval Office dominate UK front pages today, with the papers united in horror

The only good that could possibly emerge from the disgraceful Oval Office ambush against Zelenskyy would be for public opinion in the US and worldwide to turn so decisively against Trump that pressure finally builds in Washington to stop all the damage from his wrecking ball of a presidency.

The way you can tell this is made up is from the claim that there are “quite a few” feds making “a few hundred thousand”
And the way you can tell someone’s an a**hat is when they call a few hundred thousand a “low salary”

The Hegseth Hearing Was a National Embarrassment America’s allies and enemies watched as Trump’s pick for the secretary of defense failed to quell concerns about his character and qualifications.

America’s allies should be deeply concerned about Pete Hegseth’s confirmation hearing. America’s enemies, meanwhile, are almost certainly laughing in amazement at their unexpected good fortune.

On Thursday I submitted a manuscript that I hope will be my 11th authored/coauthored book. I write books that deal with the presidency — I’ve never felt a greater sense of urgency about the fate of that office and of the entire American experiment. We’ve had mediocrities before but never someone

The prayer that Mike Johnson attributed to Thomas Jefferson did not come from Jefferson. It came from a 1928 Episcopal prayer book.
But the idea that *Jefferson* said it; that it is evidence the US was founded as a “Christian nation” … hoo boy where *that* came from is … well not surprising actually

President justifies martial law, blames opposition for chaos President Yoon Suk Yeol justified his short-lived martial law, calling it a decisive act of governance that is not subject to investigation or judicial review and does not amount to rebellion.

Negotiation and compromise are basic political tools for a president dealing with an adversarial legislature. Executive orders can be another. Not sending in the military.

This sums up what I’ve been hearing as well. The South Korean public wants to hold Yoon accountable for his abuse of power but Lee Jae-myung, the most prominent opposition leader and likely to run in a snap election, is an incredibly polarizing figure. I hope the Democratic Party is taking note.
