Sterling plunges after Theresa May’s Brexit deal suffers surprise legal setback – CNBC
Sterling plunges after Theresa May’s Brexit deal suffers surprise legal setback – CNBC

<!– –>

×

Europe Markets

Sterling fell sharply against the dollar on Tuesday after Britain’s Attorney General Geoffrey Cox published his opinion on Prime Minister Theresa May’s recently amended Brexit deal.

Cox’s legal advice on the tweaked deal is seen as crucial to whether the assurances May received on Monday are enough to give wavering U.K. lawmakers the confidence to give her deal the green light. A second vote on May’s deal is still due on Tuesday evening.

Cox said Tuesday morning that the legal risks to Brexit still remain despite the late-night concessions from the European Union on Monday. He added that the revised document did not give Britain any legal means of exiting the “Irish backstop” arrangements unilaterally.

The backstop is a mechanism to avoid restoration of the “hard” border between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland that was erased with the 1998 Good Friday peace agreement between London and Dublin. Some U.K. politicians don’t like the fact that the backstop, although intended as a last-resort, would mean the U.K. remaining within a EU customs union for an indefinite amount of time and unable to leave unilaterally.

“The legal risk remains unchanged that if through no such demonstrable failure of either party, but simply because of intractable differences, that situation does arise, the United Kingdom would have … no internationally lawful means of exiting the Protocol’s arrangements, save by agreement,” Cox said in the statement.

The British currency plunged 1 percent to trade at $1.3012 by 11:30 a.m. London time Tuesday. It also slipped nearly 1 percent against the euro. By around 3:00 p.m. Tuesday afternoon it had retraced some of those losses and was trading at $1.3121.

May’s deal has already been roundly rejected by U.K. lawmakers once, back in January, and faces another test on Tuesday evening. If lawmakers vote against the deal again, they will then get to vote on Wednesday and Thursday respectively on whether the U.K. should leave the 28-member bloc with no deal, or should request a delay to its departure, currently scheduled for March 29.



May needs to win over the most ardent Brexiteers within her own Conservative Party who belong to a euroskeptic European Research Group (ERG) and the Northern Irish party that supports her government and gives it a slim majority in Parliament, the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP).

By Tuesday afternoon, and after Cox’s statement, the DUP and ERG indicated they would both reject the deal.

What next for sterling?

Analysts told CNBC Tuesday that sterling could fluctuate from $1.30 to $1.38, depending on the result of the vote.

“The move in GBP overnight (Monday) reflects the fact that May’s plan is back in the running,” Jane Foley, head of foreign exchange strategy at Rabobank, told CNBC via email Tuesday. “We could see EUR/GBP dipping to 0.84 initially and cable pushing to 1.34 if a deal was passed.”

Sterling is down more than 5 percent over a 12-month period against the greenback, and is down more than 8 percent since the U.K. voted to leave the European Union in June 2016.

Jordan Rochester, a foreign exchange strategist at Nomura, told CNBC Tuesday that if the deal passes, it will be the “Eureka moment” and sterling could be trading around $1.38 on Wednesday. He, however, cautioned on it falling in the case of a rejection.

“If it fails, we’ll see GBP fall on the back of short-term positioning being taken off. But the move would likely be capped to no more than 0.87 in EURGBP given Article 50 extension still leaves open the options of softer Brexit and people’s votes in market pricing.”

The U.K. Parliament will start voting at 7:00 p.m. London time on Tuesday and the results will be announced later in the evening. The U.K. is set to leave the European Union on March 29.

Happy 30th birthday, World Wide Web. Inventor outlines plan to combat hacking, hate speech – USA TODAY
Happy 30th birthday, World Wide Web. Inventor outlines plan to combat hacking, hate speech – USA TODAY
CLOSE

A lot has changed since the World Wide Web was born 30 years ago.
USA TODAY

Thirty years ago, an English software engineer submitted a “vague, but exciting” proposal to his boss about a system for managing information that would later be known as the World Wide Web. 

Tim Berners-Lee was in his early 30s when he submitted the idea at work, a physics laboratory in Switzerland. He wasn’t hired to create a worldwide communication system. He simply came up with the idea because he noticed inefficiencies at work. 

“I found it frustrating that in those days, there was different information on different computers, but you had to log on to different computers to get at it … So finding out how things worked was really difficult,” he said.

His proposal, “Information Management: A Proposal,” was the beginning of http, urls and html.

Today, roughly half the world is online and nearly 2 billion websites exist.

What’s next for the World Wide Web?

Berners-Lee hopes the technology can be a vehicle for “public good” and less littered with hacking, harassment and hate speech. Monday, he outlined what he hopes can become of the web in a “contract” to positively impact the world.  

“The Contract for the Web recognizes that whether humanity, in fact, is constructive or not actually depends on the way you write the code of the social network,” he said.

Berners-Lee believes that through laws, system changes and research, it’s possible to achieve a better World Wide Web, “the web we want.”

FAA says Boeing 737 Max jets can be operated despite Australia, China grounding the plane – Fox News

New safety concerns following crash of Boeing 737 Max 8 aircraft

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said on Monday that it will continue to trust and use Boeing 737 MAX aircrafts even as Australian, Chinese and other aviation authorities are temporarily suspending the use of the aircraft following the deadly crash of one of the planes in Ethiopia that killed eight Americans.

The U.S. aviation authority said that it’s investigating Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 and its crash on Sunday that killed 157 people, but noted that commercial airlines are still allowed to operate the aircraft that crashed.

“The FAA will issue a Continued Airworthiness Notification to the International Community (CANIC) for Boeing 737 Max operators. The FAA continuously assesses and oversees the safety performance of U.S. commercial aircraft. If we identify an issue that affects safety, the FAA will take immediate and appropriate action,” the statement said.

FEINSTEIN, BLUMENTHAL LEAD DEM PRESSURE ON BOEING AFTER DEADLY ETHIOPIAN AIRLINES CRASH

This came as other countries and airlines stopped using the Boeing aircraft in response to the crash, with other countries’ aviation authorities suspending the use of it.

Australia’s Civil Aviation Safety Authority is the latest authority that announced the move to suspend the operation of Boeing 737 MAX aircraft from or to the country, Reuters reported.

“This is a temporary suspension while we wait for more information to review the safety risks of continued operations of the Boeing 737 MAX to and from Australia,” Australia’s Civil Aviation Safety Authority CEO Shane Carmody said in a statement.

No Australian airlines actually operate the aircraft, but two foreign airlines reportedly use the planes to Australia, including Fiji Airways and Singapore-based SilkAir, which already suspended the use of the aircraft.

China, the country with the most Boeing 737 MAX planes, said on Monday that it’s also temporarily grounding the aircraft in question.

The order came following “the management principle of zero tolerance for security risks” and pointed that the crash was the second after another of the planes fell into the ocean off the coast of Indonesia in similar circumstances on Oct. 29, killing all aboard.

Indonesia and Singapore followed the suit, while Chinese authorities said a further notice will be issued after the consultation with the FAA.

In a statement by Boeing said it was “is deeply saddened by the loss of Lion Air Flight 610, which has have weighed heavily on the entire Boeing team, and we extend our heartfelt condolences and sympathies to the families and loved ones of those onboard.”

“Safety is a core value for everyone at Boeing and the safety of our airplanes, our customers’ passengers and their crews is always our top priority,” the statement continued. “The 737 MAX is a safe airplane that was designed, built and supported by our skilled employees who approach their work with the utmost integrity.”

It added that “Boeing has been developing a flight control software enhancement for the 737 MAX, designed to make an already safe aircraft even safer.”

    U.K. Parliament to Hold a Crucial Brexit Vote – The New York Times
    U.K. Parliament to Hold a Crucial Brexit Vote – The New York Times

    Speaking late Monday in Strasbourg, Jean-Claude Juncker, the president of the European Commission, the bloc’s executive arm, warned that the British could not expect any further concessions. “There will be no further interpretation of the interpretation,” he said. “No further assurances on the reassurances if the meaningful vote fails tomorrow.”

    The 650-seat British Parliament, which rejected Mrs. May’s previous deal by 230 votes, is scheduled to vote on the revised agreement around 7 p.m. in London. At stake is the fate of the withdrawal agreement and a political declaration that would allow Britain to leave the bloc on March 29 with a standstill transition period, during which very little would change until the end of 2020.

    If lawmakers reject the proposal, Britain would enter a new period of political uncertainty, one that could lead to Parliament trying to take control of the process from the government in a further diminishing of Mrs. May’s shaky authority.

    Late on Monday, Mrs. May’s de facto deputy, David Lidington, appealed to Parliament to endorse the proposals, arguing that the alternative would be to “plunge this country into a political crisis.”

    If Britain leaves the European Union without an agreement — the so-called no-deal Brexit — the consequences could be dire, with fears of clogged ports and shortages of some food and medicine.

    Juan Guaido takes the <i>Examiner</i>‘s advice. Time for Trump to support his Cuban embargo – Washington Examiner
    Juan Guaido takes the Examiner‘s advice. Time for Trump to support his Cuban embargo – Washington Examiner

    Is Venezuelan interim President Juan Guaido reading the Washington Examiner?

    After all, on Monday, Guaido called on the international community to help stop presidential occupier Nicolas Maduro from supplying Cuba with oil. That’s exactly what I called for on Feb. 27. Addressing the national assembly as his country continues to suffer under an ongoing power blackout, Guaido was passionate in his call for action.

    Guaido was clear that he wants international support to enforce the ban. But why is this action so important?

    Well, because, via the highly capable intelligence and military forces it has deployed to Venezuela, Cuba is the critical enabler of Maduro’s repression. But if Cuba is cut off from Venezuelan oil, its economy will grind to a halt. Guaido and the U.S., which he has presumably consulted here, know as much. They will hope that any embargo will force Cuba to cut a deal with Guaido in which it ends support for Maduro in return for preserved oil supplies under a future administration.

    President Trump should respond favorably to this request by a head of government. Under Southern Command, the U.S. Navy can detect and interdict any oil tankers which attempt to transit through the Caribbean Sea. But the U.S. should also request naval support from the British, Colombian, Brazilian, and French governments. Each of those governments has recognized Guaido and each operates naval forces in proximity to the Caribbean Sea.

    The risk of conflict is small. Venezuelan naval and air forces loyal to Maduro could not contest an embargo without suffering annihilation. And their commanders would be reluctant to follow any order to that effect for fear of prosecution after Maduro’s fall. Nor could China and Russia effectively challenge the U.S. Navy so far from their home bases.

    Guaido’s request has taken on new urgency in light of the ongoing power shortage. Trump should launch this humanitarian operation to free Venezuelans from their starving dystopia.

    ‘Start Here’: Boeing 737s investigated as Pelosi says impeaching Trump ‘not worth it’ – ABC News
    ‘Start Here’: Boeing 737s investigated as Pelosi says impeaching Trump ‘not worth it’ – ABC News

    It’s Monday, March 11, 2019. Let’s start here.

    1. Fleet weak?

    What caused a new Boeing passenger jet to crash just minutes after takeoff?

    Investigators are hoping two black boxes recovered from the wreckage of Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 will shed some light on that. That crash killed all 157 on board. A similar incident in October killed 189 in Indonesia. Both planes were 737 Max 8 models.

    The stakes are high for Boeing, ABC News Senior Transportation Correspondent David Kerley says on “Start Here,” as more and more carriers ground their fleets of the company’s best-selling jet.

    2. ‘Not worth it’

    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she’s against impeaching President Donald Trump, telling The Washington Post in a new interview: “He’s just not worth it.”

    Her comments break with other Democrats, especially among Congressional newcomers eager to discuss impeachment proceedings.

    ABC News Chief White House Correspondent Jonathan Karl tells us on today’s podcast that Pelosi’s “sending a message to her own rank and file.”

    3. $4.7 trillion

    In a rare on-camera briefing, the White House on Monday rolled out a $4.7 trillion budget proposal that includes more money for the military and a border wall and less for education and health care.

    Congress won’t pass this proposal as is, ABC News’ Anne Flaherty says on “Start Here,” but it does serve as a road map of the Trump administration’s priorities and its plans for 2020.

    4. 19 days of terror

    A year ago in Austin, Texas, two people died and five were wounded in a string of bombings that lasted nearly three weeks.

    Now, for the first time, we’re getting a look at how authorities responded, including the final moments in which SWAT officers closed in on the suspected bomber sitting inside his car.

    ABC News Senior Investigative Reporter Josh Margolin joins “Start Here” to share exclusive police audio that’s part of a “Nightline” special project.

    “They race up,” Margolin says, “and they’re banging on his window, and — boom! — he detonates his last device.”

    Law enforcement officials continue their investigation at the home of Mark Anthony Conditt, March 22, 2018, in Pflugerville, Texas.

    Elsewhere:

    ‘Mr. McGregor appreciates the response of law enforcement and pledges his full cooperation’: An MMA superstar is arrested in Miami after, police said, he snatched away and smashed the cell phone of a man trying to take a photo.

    ‘She didn’t deserve that. No one deserves that.’ The family of a 33-year-old mother of three who died after being struck by a rock thrown from a highway overpass believes “justice will come.”

    ‘Drinking and playing with loaded weapons is not a good thing in any manner or sense’: A Missouri woman allegedly shot and killed her boyfriend while the pair were drinking whiskey and re-enacting a movie scene.

    From our friends at FiveThirtyEight:

    The 6 wings of the Democratic Party: Many labels have lost their utility by becoming too broad and oversimplified; the term “progressive,” for example, has become virtually meaningless to describe different kinds of Democrats, since politicians as different as Gov. Andrew Cuomo of New York and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez both define themselves as progressive. So here’s a short guide to the various factions of the 2019-20 Democratic Party.

    Doff your cap:

    “The Investigation,” ABC News’ everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-Mueller-investigation podcast, features interviews with David Bossie, Donald Trump’s former deputy campaign manager, and Keith Davidson, a former attorney for adult-film star Stormy Daniels and Playboy playmate Karen McDougal, both of whom received hush-money payments after allegedly having affairs with Trump.

    A former chief investigator during the Clinton administration, Bossie says the current White House is not prepared to handle the onslaught of investigations or what he sees as the eventual outcome: “We are headed to impeachment.”

    Davidson, who negotiated with Michael Cohen to secure payment for his clients, talks about why Trump’s former fixer turned on him. He also identifies what he says was the pivotal moment during the campaign that triggered Trump to pay off Stormy Daniels.

    Davidson also goes on the record about his dealings with American Media Inc., the National Enquirer’s parent company, and his “incredible meeting” with AMI CEO David Pecker and Karen McDougal, whose story AMI purchased for $150,000 to “catch and kill” immediately before the 2016 election.

    Michael Kunzelman/AP

    A U.S. Coast Guard lieutenant was arraigned Monday on gun and drug charges in a case authorities say linked him to a plot to killed several prominent Democrats and broadcast journalists.

    Christopher Hasson, 49, pleaded not guilty to charges of illegal possession of firearm silencers, possession of firearms by a drug addict and unlawful user, and possession of a controlled substance.

    Hasson was arrested last month in the parking lot of the Coast Guard headquarters where he had worked for three years. A search of his Silver Spring, Md., apartment turned up 15 firearms, including seven rifles, and over 1,000 rounds of ammunition.

    According to court documents filed by the government, Hasson was a self-described white nationalist who hoped to establish a “white homeland” through violent means. He also allegedly drew up a computer-speadsheet hit list with the names of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer, and other high-ranking Democrats, as well as MSNBC hosts Chris Hayes and Joe Scarborough, and CNN’s Don Lemon, Chris Cuomo and Van Jones.

    Hasson was not charged with terrorism. His original public defender said federal prosecutors were exaggerating his potential ties to terrorism.

    He faces up to 31 years in prison if convicted on all of the charges against him.

    MP or not, Kim Jong-un retains an iron grip over North Korea

    North Korea’s election has resulted in the expected landslide win for its authoritarian leadership – but in a big first for the country, Kim Jong-un does not appear to have been on the ballot.

    If confirmed, it would be the first time a North Korean leader has not run for its rubberstamp parliament.

    The vote did see his sister, Kim Yo-jong, elected to the body, however.

    The leader’s younger sibling has been gradually moving into a more influential role.

    North Korea’s parliamentary election is used by Pyongyang to legitimise its rule, but is condemned internationally as a meaningless exercise. Each voting slip has only one state-approved candidate on it.

    State media announced the names of the 687 deputies elected to the Supreme People’s Assembly (SPA) on Tuesday, but Mr Kim’s name was not read out.

    Rachel Minyoung Lee, an analyst with North Korea specialist website NK News, told the BBC that his absence from the list does not suggest a weakening grip on power.

    “This could be part of North Korea’s ongoing effort to be perceived as a ‘normal state’,” she said. “And in most democratic countries, the president doesn’t concurrently have a seat in the parliament.”

    As for the leader’s sister, Ms Lee explained that Kim Yo-jong had not been elected in the previous 2014 election but had since become a member of the SPA, “possibly in a by-election due to someone’s death”.

    Ms Kim’s profile has been on the rise since 2014, when she was made vice-director of the party’s key Propaganda and Agitation Department.

    She has become a regular on her brother’s foreign travels, including the recent Hanoi meeting with US President Donald Trump, which reinforces her position as a close aide.

    North Korea’s first sister has become a close aide of Kim Jong-un

    Voting in last Sunday’s election was mandatory for all North Korean citizens above the age of 17, even though there was no choice of candidates.

    The parliament is elected every five years, turnout is always close to 100% and approval for the governing Workers’ Party is unanimous.

    The North’s official news agency KCNA said on Tuesday that this year’s turnout was 99.99%, as those “abroad or working in oceans” were unable to participate.

    Ethiopian Airlines Crash Updates: Boeing Plans System Improvements After Second Crash – The New York Times
    Ethiopian Airlines Crash Updates: Boeing Plans System Improvements After Second Crash – The New York Times

    More than 130 planes have been grounded worldwide in recent days, but there are hundreds more that have been ordered from Boeing, whose fates are now less certain.

    Malaysia’s economic affairs minister said on Monday that Malaysia’s sovereign wealth fund should review an earlier purchase agreement for 25 of Boeing’s 737 Max 8 planes, putting those orders injeopardy.

    Boeing’s 2016 agreement with Malaysia Airlines — an embattled, state-owned carrier — was valued at $2.75 billion at list prices and included purchase rights for additional 737 Max 8 and 737 Max 9 aircraft.

    “They have to revisit whatever agreements that they had in the past,” the minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Aliwas told reporters.

    No other airlines have publicly questioned their orders of Boeing Max aircraft in the wake of the Ethiopian Airlines crash, said Shukor Yusof, the founder of Endau Analytics, an aviation consultancy based in Malaysia and Singapore.

    Kazanah’s backtrack on the orders may have less to do with safety and more to do with money and politics, Mr. Yusof said, adding that the airline has been plagued by steep losses since 2014. Additionally, he said, the government of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, which came to power last year is aware that the citizens are currently skeptical of spending from government coffers.

    White House won’t say if embattled labor secretary Acosta has Trump’s support – AOL
    White House won’t say if embattled labor secretary Acosta has Trump’s support – AOL

    WASHINGTON, D.C.—Asked twice in her first press briefing in six weeks whether the job of Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta was in jeopardy, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders pointedly declined to endorse the embattled department head.

    Acosta—the only Hispanic member of Trump’s cabinet—has faced sharp criticism for the leniency he showed as a U.S. attorney in Miami to Jeffrey Epstein, an accused sexual predator. Epstein is alleged to have engaged in the sex trafficking of underaged girls, yet the plea deal to which he ultimately agreed—and which Epstein brokered—had him admit guilt only on two minor prostitution charges.

    Though that deal was struck 11 years ago, full details have only recently been brought to public attention. The revelations about Epstein, which come during a time of #MeToo and a broader conversation about disparities in the criminal justice system, have led to calls for Acosta’s resignation.

    Sanders did little to tamp down speculation about Acosta’s future in the Trump administration. Asked by a reporter if Trump had any “misgivings” about Acosta’s role in the Epstein deal, Sanders said only that the matter was “currently under review.” She added that the White House was “certainly looking at it.”

    A short time later, Sanders was asked by another reporter whether Trump had “full confidence” in Acosta or whether the Labor Secretary was “possibly leaving.”

    Sanders passed up the opportunity to reaffirm Trump’s support for Acosta. “I am not aware of any personnel changes,” Sanders said, repeating her previous statement that “those things are currently under review.” She did not say what that review entailed.

    Sanders did not immediately respond to a subsequent request for comment.

    Were Acosta to either depart or face dismissal, he would be one of a legion of department heads and top-level advisers to leave the administration, including press secretary Sean Spicer, chief of staff Reince Priebus, chief of staff John Kelly, deputy chief of staff Joe Hagin, chief strategist Steve Bannon, communications director Mike Dubke, communications director Hope Hicks, communications director Bill Shine, chief counsel Don McGahn, Environmental Protection Agency administrator Scott Pruitt, Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke, U.S. attorney general Jeff Sessions, national security adviser Mike Flynn, national security adviser H.R. McMaster, secretary of state Rex Tillerson, Veterans Affairs Secretary David Shulkin, Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price, FBI director James Comey, and U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley.

    The above is not a complete list.

    Boeing Scrambles to Contain Fallout From Deadly Ethiopia Crash – The New York Times
    Boeing Scrambles to Contain Fallout From Deadly Ethiopia Crash – The New York Times

    The uncertainty over the cause of the latest crash has put Boeing on the defensive. The 737 Max is the company’s best-selling jet ever, and it is expected to be a major driver of profits in the future. Around 5,000 of the planes are on order, with a list price of $120 million for the Max 8 version.

    Shares of the company fell 5 percent on Monday, as pressure mounted from various corners.

    The Association of Flight Attendants sent a letter to the F.A.A. on Monday calling for a review of the 737 Max. “We need help from the regulators when the entire world is looking at two catastrophic incidents that happened on the same aircraft type within five months of each other,” said Sara Nelson, the president of the flight attendants’ union. “Our system is so safe that these things don’t happen today. That is why people are questioning what is going on here.”

    Pilots also raised questions about the safety of the plane. “We’re very concerned about why two brand-new aircraft suddenly pitched over and nosed into the ground,” said Rory Kay, a former top safety official at the world’s largest pilot union and a senior pilot and pilot trainer at a major United States airline. “This is not the dawn of aviation. We’ve evolved, planes have evolved.”

    Dennis Tajer, a spokesman for the American Airlines pilot union and a 737 pilot, said that the Lion Air crash hurt the reputation of the 737 Max in the eyes of some of his members and that the Ethiopian accident had prompted new questions from them. “I think there needs to be further review into the certification process” for the aircraft, Mr. Tajer said. “Everybody should be looking at this.”

    In Washington, two senators, Dianne Feinstein of California and Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, went a step further, calling on the F.A.A. to ground all Boeing 737 Max 8s until the investigation into the Ethiopia crash was complete.

    Some passengers tried to rebook their flights to avoid a 737 Max 8. Carriers that hadn’t grounded the plane sought to reassure customers, providing information about the jet’s safety.

    Trump’s phony budget relies on rosy economic assumptions and imaginary savings – Washington Examiner
    Trump’s phony budget relies on rosy economic assumptions and imaginary savings – Washington Examiner

    President Trump’s budget has been billed as slashing deficits by trillions of dollars through what media outlets are billing as “deep” spending cuts. In reality, its savings are mainly imaginary — highly dependent on rosy economic forecasts and vague promises to eliminate “waste, fraud, and abuse.”

    Assuming significantly faster economic growth over the next decade than the Congressional Budget Office does enabled the White House Office of Management and Budget to adopt much more optimistic assumptions about federal tax revenues. This made the budget math look a lot better, allowing Trump’s team to avoid outlining more detailed reforms.

    Specifically, over the course of the 2020 to 2029 window in question, the Trump administration assumes that annual economic growth would average about 2.9 percent, compared to the CBO’s estimate of 1.7 percent. To provide a sense of how significant this is, it means that in 2029, the end of the projection period, the White House expects the economy to be $4.1 trillion larger than what the CBO is assuming.

    While I’m the last person in the world who would say the CBO is infallible, it’s worth noting how much of the OMB assumptions depend on there being 10 years of sustained strong economic growth.

    If you were to just slap CBO’s baseline revenue assumptions onto the Trump budget without changing anything else, the budget would result in cumulative deficits of $10.1 trillion, thus wiping out all of the $2.8 trillion in deficit reduction claimed by the Trump administration.

    The rosy economic forecasts also make the spending appear much smaller in proportion with the economy. For instance, the budget proposes increasing defense spending by $510 billion, yet by the end of the decade, defense spending is only projected to account for 2.3 percent of GDP, compared to 2.5 percent under the CBO baseline, which assumes lower defense spending.

    The budget does make some changes that, if enacted, would result in lower spending, such as overhauling Obamacare and Medicaid to hand over more control to the states, and adding work requirements to Medicaid and other public assistance programs, which would likely reduce enrollment.

    But much of the other so-called “savings” are a mirage.

    For instance, the administration is touting a 5 percent cut to nondefense discretionary spending without specifying, in detail, where such significant reductions would be coming from.

    Additionally, though the plan is being attacked as cutting Medicare by $845 billion, in reality, there aren’t any specifics on how the administration wants to achieve that. There are some tweaks to how Medicare pays for drugs, such as changes to encourage the use of generics. But the drug pricing reforms in the entire budget, which include changes to other programs such as Medicaid, only account for $69 billion in deficit reduction, according to the OMB’s own math. The rest of the “savings” are chalked up to the old Washington standby: a vague promise to reduce “waste, fraud, and abuse.”

    There are no major structural reforms to Medicare that would actually put the program on a sustainable fiscal trajectory.

    Acting OMB director Russ Vought acknowledged this much in a press conference discussing the budget.

    “He’s not cutting Medicare in this budget,” Vought said. “What we are doing is putting forward reforms that lower drug prices that because Medicare pays a very large share of drug prices in this country, has the impact of finding savings. We’re also finding waste, fraud, and abuse, but Medicare spending will go up every single year by healthy margins and there are no structural changes for Medicare beneficiaries.”

    Trump’s budget is not going anywhere in a divided government. But it will be used by Democrats to warn of draconian cuts, and cited by Trump and his apologists to argue he’s getting serious about the debt, all the while, the actual savings are imaginary. This, in a nutshell, represents the state of political discourse surrounding the unsustainable federal debt.

      UK’s Theresa May clinches legally binding Brexit ‘backstop’ changes, deputy says – CNBC
      UK’s Theresa May clinches legally binding Brexit ‘backstop’ changes, deputy says – CNBC

      Europe Politics

      Prime Minister Theresa May won legally binding Brexit assurances from the European Union on Monday in a last ditch attempt to sway rebellious British lawmakers who have threatened to vote down her divorce deal again.

      Scrambling to plot an orderly path out of the Brexit maze just days before the United Kingdom is due to leave on March 29, May rushed to Strasbourg to agree additional assurances with European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker.

      Brexiteers in May’s party have accused her of surrendering to the EU and it was not clear if the assurances she agreed would be enough to win over the 116 additional lawmakers she needs reverse the crushing defeat her deal suffered on Jan. 15.

      “Today we have secured legal changes,” May said in a late night news conference in Strasbourg beside Juncker, exactly 17 days before the United Kingdom is due to leave the EU.

      “Now is the time to come together to back this improved Brexit deal and to deliver on the instruction of the British people,” May said.

      May announced three documents — a joint instrument, a joint statement and a unilateral declaration — which she said were aimed at addressing the most contentious part of the divorce deal she agreed in November: the Irish backstop.

      The backstop is an insurance policy aimed at avoiding controls on the sensitive border between the British province of Northern Ireland and EU member Ireland, though some British lawmakers worry it could trap the United Kingdom in the EU’s orbit indefinitely.

      On news of the breakthrough, sterling, which has see-sawed on Brexit headlines, jumped 0.8 percent to $1.3250 in Asian trade and rallied to the strongest against the euro since mid-2017.

      Last chance?

      After two-and-a-half years of haggling with Britain over Brexit, Juncker cautioned that this was the last chance for Britain.

      “There will be no third chance,” he said. “There will be no further interpretations of the interpretations; no further assurances of the re-assurances — if the meaningful vote tomorrow fails.”



      “It is this deal or Brexit might not happen at all,” he said. He said in a letter to EU summit chair Donald Tusk that if Britain didn’t leave by the May 23-26 elections, it would have to elect its own EU lawmakers.

      The United Kingdom’s tortuous crisis over EU membership is approaching its finale with an extraordinary array of outcomes still possible, including a delay, a last-minute deal, a no-deal Brexit, a snap election or even another referendum. The country voted to leave the EU in a 2016 plebiscite.

      The British parliament on Jan. 15 voted to reject May’s deal by 230 votes, the biggest defeat for a government in modern British history.

      Brexit votes

      May has promised lawmakers a vote on her deal on Tuesday. The motion put forward by the government said that the joint instrument “reduces the risk” that the United Kingdom would be trapped in the backstop.

      The immediate reaction was cautious from Brexit-supporting lawmakers in her own party and from the Northern Irish Democratic Unionist Party which props up her minority government.

      After Cabinet Office Minister David Lidington, who May’s de facto deputy, updated the British parliament on the talks, Brexit supporting lawmaker Steve Baker told BBC Radio: “It’s not for the first time that David has had to put a very good gloss on something which falls short of what was expected.”

      Lidington said that Britain and the EU had agreed an instrument to prevent the EU seeking to “trap” Britain in any backstop, work to replace the backstop by December 2020 and confirming pledges Britain has made for a lock on new EU laws applying to Northern Ireland.

      He also said that they had agreed a second document, a joint statement to expedite the negotiation of the future relationship.

      The DUP said it would study the documents.

      May was instructed by lawmakers to replace the backstop with alternative arrangements. The opposition Labour Party said she had fallen far short of her promises to parliament.

      If the backstop comes into force and talks on the future relationship break down with no prospect of an agreement, May said the unilateral declaration would make clear there was nothing to stop London from moving to leave the backstop.

      Brexit in peril?

      The British government’s top lawyer, Attorney General Geoffrey Cox, is due to set out his legal analysis of the assurances ahead of Tuesday’s vote. Many pro-Brexit lawmakers will wait to see that before deciding how to vote.

      If she loses the vote, May has said lawmakers will get a vote on Wednesday on whether to leave without a deal and, if they reject that, then a vote on whether to ask for a limited delay to Brexit.

      Senior British government ministers have warned rebellious lawmakers that if May’s deal is voted down then there is a chance that Brexit could be thwarted.

      Brexit will pitch the world’s fifth largest economy into the unknown and many fear it will serve to divide the West as it grapples with both the unconventional presidency of Donald Trump and growing assertiveness from Russia and China.

      Supporters of Brexit say that while the divorce might bring some short-term instability, in the longer term it will allow the United Kingdom to thrive and also enable deeper EU integration without such a powerful reluctant member.

      Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand defends handling of aide’s alleged sexual misconduct – ABC News
      Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand defends handling of aide’s alleged sexual misconduct – ABC News

      Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, a 2020 presidential hopeful who has made fighting sexual assault the focus of her political career, is pushing back against claims made by a female staffer in her office who says she resigned last summer in protest over the office’s handling of a sexual harassment complaint against a top aide.

      When reached by ABC News late Monday, Gillibrand told ABC News she has no regrets about the way claims of sexual harassment made the female staffer were handled as outlined in POLITICO .

      “We conducted a thorough and professional investigation, and the person who was accused was punished,” Gillibrand said.

      Gillibrand’s office maintains that they took immediate action at the time the initial complaint was made in consultation with Senate Employment Counsel and included multiple interviews with relevant current employees who could corroborate the claims.

      “A full and thorough investigation into the evidence revealed employee misconduct that, while inappropriate, did not meet the standard for sexual harassment. However, because the office did find unprofessional behavior that violated office policy, including derogatory comments, the office took strong disciplinary action against the employee in question and he was given a final warning,” Gillibrand’s communications director Whitney Brennan said in a statement to ABC News.

      The male staffer was later fired.

      The female staffer alleges she told the senator’s staffers last summer that one of Gillibrand’s closest aides repeatedly made unwelcome advances and crude, misogynistic remarks in the office about other female colleagues and potential female hires after he was promoted to a supervisory role, according to POLITICO.

      In a subsequent resignation email which was obtained by POLITICO, the woman claimed she was leaving her post because of how “poorly the investigation and post-investigation,” into the matter was handled.

      “Your office chose to go against your public belief that women shouldn’t accept sexual harassment in any form and portrayed my experience as a misinterpretation instead of what it actually was: harassment and ultimately, intimidation,” the woman wrote, according to POLITICO.

      The correspondence appears to have been sent to the senator’s personal email account on the staffer’s final day – less than three weeks after she reported the alleged harassment.

      ABC News has not spoken directly with the woman nor verified the email.

      Gillibrand issued a statement to ABC News defending her office’s handling of both the sexual misconduct allegations and the subsequent investigation into the matter.

      “These are challenges that affect all of our nation’s workplaces, including mine, and the question is whether or not they are taken seriously. As I have long said, when allegations are made in the workplace, we must believe women so that serious investigations can actually take place, we can learn the facts, and there can be appropriate accountability. That’s exactly what happened at every step of this case last year. I told her that we loved her at the time and the same is true today,” Gillibrand said.

      Gillibrand’s office said the male staffer was fired last week after additional “troubling comments” he allegedly made were revealed.

      “Recently, we learned of never-before-reported and deeply troubling comments allegedly made by this same individual. The office immediately began another investigation and interviewed relevant witnesses, which has led to the office terminating the employee from staff last week,” Brennan said in a statement.

      She added: “Senator Gillibrand is committed to ensuring allegations are handled seriously, investigated, and followed by appropriate punishment, which is why she helped pass stronger sexual harassment protections in Congress and prioritizes proper harassment training to better prevent these occurrences and encourage future reporting.”

      ABC News’ John Verhovek contributed to this report.

      Pollution, much like wealth, is not distributed equally in the United States.

      Scientists and policymakers have long known that black and Hispanic Americans tend to live in neighborhoods with more pollution of all kinds, than white Americans. And because pollution exposure can cause a range of health problems, this inequity could be a driver of unequal health outcomes across the U.S.

      A study published Monday in the journal PNAS adds a new twist to the pollution problem by looking at consumption. While we tend to think of factories or power plants as the source of pollution, those polluters wouldn’t exist without consumer demand for their products.

      The researchers found that air pollution is disproportionately caused by white Americans’ consumption of goods and services, but disproportionately inhaled by black and Hispanic Americans.

      “This paper is exciting and really quite novel,” says Anjum Hajat, an epidemiologist at the University of Washington who was not involved in the study. “Inequity in exposure to air pollution is well documented, but this study brings in the consumption angle.”

      Hajat says the study reveals an inherent unfairness: “If you’re contributing less to the problem, why do you have to suffer more from it?”

      The study, led by engineering professor Jason Hill at the University of Minnesota, took over six years to complete. According to the paper’s first author Christopher Tessum, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Washington, the idea stemmed from a question at a conference.

      Tessum presented earlier research on how blacks and Hispanics are often more exposed to air pollutants than whites. After he finished, someone asked “if it would be possible to connect exposure to air pollution to who is doing the actual consuming,” says Tessum. According to Tessum, no one had ever tried to answer that question.

      It’s a big, complicated issue, but studying it could address a fundamental question: Are those who produce pollution, through their consumption of goods and services, fairly sharing in the costs?

      What kind of data could even answer such a multifaceted question? Let’s break it down:

      For any given area in the U.S., the researchers would need to know how polluted the air was, what communities were exposed to pollution, and the health effects of that level of exposure.

      Then, for the same area the researchers would need to identify the sources of that exposure (coal plants, factories, agriculture to name a few), and get a sense of what goods and services stem from those emissions (electricity, transportation, food).

      Finally, whose consumption of goods and services drives those sectors of the economy?

      “The different kinds of data, by themselves, aren’t that complicated,” says Tessum. “It’s linking them where things get a little trickier.”

      The most relevant air pollutant metric for human health is “particulate matter 2.5” or PM2.5. It represents the largest environmental health risk factor in the United States with higher levels linked to more cardiovascular problems, respiratory illness, diabetes and even birth defects. PM2.5 pollution is mostly caused by human activities, like burning fossil fuels or agriculture.

      The EPA collects these data through the National Emissions Inventory, which collates emissions from specific emitters, like coal plants or factories, measures of mobile polluters like cars or planes, and natural events like wildfires, painting a detailed picture of pollution across the U.S.

      The researchers generated maps of where different emitters, like agriculture or construction, caused PM2.5 pollution. Coal plants produced pockets of pollution in West Virginia and Pennsylvania, while agricultural emissions were concentrated in the Midwest and California’s central valley. “We then tied in census data to understand where different racial-ethnic groups live to understand exposure patterns,” says Hill.

      Tessum then used previous research on the health effects of different exposure levels to estimate how many premature deaths per year (out of an estimated 102,000 from domestic human-caused emissions) could be linked to each emitter.

      “We wanted to take this study further by ascribing responsibility of these premature deaths to different sectors [of the economy], and ultimately to the consumers, and maybe consumers of different racial and ethnic groups,” says Hill.

      To do that, the researchers actually worked backwards, following consumer spending to different sectors of the economy, and then ultimately to the main emitters of air pollution.

      Consider one major contributor to emissions: agriculture. Consumer expenditure surveys from the Bureau of Labor Statistics provide detailed data on how much money households spend in various sectors of the economy, including food.

      These data gave the researchers an idea of how much blacks, Hispanics, and whites spend on food per year. Other expenditures, like energy or entertainment, are also measured. Taken together these data represent the consumption patterns of the three groups.

      To translate dollars spent on food into air pollution levels, the researchers traced money through the economy. Using data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the researchers can estimate, for example, how much grocery stores or restaurants spend on food. Eventually, these dollars are linked back to the primary emitters — the farms growing the food or the fuel that farmers buy to run their tractors.

      The researchers have now completed the causal chain, from dollars spent at the grocery story, to the amount of pollution emitted into the atmosphere. Completing this chain for each source of pollution revealed whose consumption drives air pollution, and who suffers from it.

      After accounting for population size differences, whites experience about 17 percent less air pollution than they produce, through consumption, while blacks and Hispanics bear 56 and 63 percent more air pollution, respectively, than they cause by their consumption, according to the study.

      “These patterns didn’t seem to be driven by different kinds of consumption,” says Tessum, “but different overall levels.” In other words, whites were just consuming disproportionately more of the same kinds of goods and services resulting in air pollution than minority communities.

      “These results, as striking as they are, aren’t really surprising,” says Ana Diez Roux, an epidemiologist at Drexel University who was not involved in the study. “But it’s really interesting to see consumption patterns rigorously documented suggesting that minority communities are exposed to pollution that they bear less responsibility for.”

      Diez Roux thinks this is a good first step. “They certainly make assumptions in their analysis that might be questioned down the line, but I doubt that the overall pattern they found will change,” she says.

      Tessum points to some hopeful results from the study. PM2.5 exposure by all groups has fallen by about 50 percent from 2002 to 2015, driven in part by regulation and population movement away from polluted areas. But the inequity remains mostly unchanged.

      While more research is needed to fully understand these differences, the results of this study raise questions about how to address these inequities.

      Tessum stresses that “we’re not saying that we should take away white people’s money, or that people shouldn’t be able to spend money.” He suggests continuing to strive to make economic activity and consumption less polluting could be a way to manage and lessen the inequities.

      Diez Roux thinks that stronger measures may be necessary.

      “If want to ameliorate this inequity, we may need to rethink how we build our cities and how they grow, our dependence on automobile transportation,” says Diez Roux. “These are hard things we have to consider.”

      Nancy Pelosi: ‘Not worth it’ to impeach Trump – AOL
      Nancy Pelosi: ‘Not worth it’ to impeach Trump – AOL

      House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said that barring “overwhelming” new evidence she would not pursue impeachment against President Trump because it would be too divisive and “he’s just not worth it.”

      “I’m not for impeachment,” said Pelosi in an interview with the Washington Post published Monday. “This is news. I’m going to give you some news right now because I haven’t said this to any press person before. But since you asked, and I’ve been thinking about this: Impeachment is so divisive to the country that unless there’s something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan, I don’t think we should go down that path, because it divides the country. And he’s just not worth it.”

      Impeachment by the House of Representatives, which Democrats control, can be accomplished by a simple majority. But to remove Trump from office would require a two-thirds majority vote in the Republican-led Senate.

      Pelosi’s comments echo those by House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-NY, in an interview with Politico publisher earlier Monday.

      “You don’t want to divide the country, so you have to think you have such a case that once the case is finished being presented, enough people understand you had to do it,” said Nadler.

      A poll of Iowa Democrats released over the weekend found only 22 percent of respondents saying they cared “a lot” about impeachment, far lower than issues like health care (81 percent), climate change (80 percent) or income inequality (67 percent).

      Other Democrats are more enthusiastic. Freshman Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., made headlines in January for saying of the president “We’re going to impeach this mother***er” at a MoveOn event in Washington, D.C. Rep. Brad Sherman, D-Cal., first introduced articles of impeachment against Trump for obstruction of justice in July 2017.

      MUST WATCH

      (CNN)Passengers do not have many options if they are booked on flights in the United States and learn that they will be on the same model of aircraft, the 737 MAX 8, that crashed in Ethiopia over the weekend. While passengers can always choose not to get on a plane if they feel unsafe, the two major US airlines that have 737 MAX 8 planes are not grounding those aircraft or changing their standard flight cancellation, change or refund policies.

      Trump broke his promise to fix the debt. He’ll blame Congress in 2020. – NBC News
      Trump broke his promise to fix the debt. He’ll blame Congress in 2020. – NBC News

      WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s budget is the confession of a broken promise.

      As a candidate, Trump famously vowed to eliminate the national debt in eight years.

      But under the spending blueprint he released Monday — which has “promises kept” in its title — the federal government wouldn’t start paying down debt for 15 years. Until then, even under the rosy projections of Trump’s budget-writers, Washington would run annual deficits adding to a red-ink total that already stands at more than $22 trillion.

      Of course, Trump’s initial promise was fantastical. But his tax cuts and defense buildup ushered in a new era of trillion-dollar annual deficits. His own budget projects that next year’s deficit will weigh in at $1.1 trillion.

      That’s despite calling for massive cuts to entitlement programs, headlined by a plan to force recipients of Medicaid, food stamps and federal housing subsidies to work or otherwise engage in their communities.

      There was no way, given the state of the national debt or of his preferred policies, that Trump could begin to entertain the idea that he would be able to campaign in 2020 on having kept the promise that he would eliminate the national debt.

      Instead, what he’s setting up to do with this budget is fight with — and blame — members of Congress as he frames his re-election message. The fiscal failure is their fault because they didn’t follow his lead, his allies say.

      “Congress just hasn’t been willing to play ball,” Russ Vought, the deputy director of the Office of Management and Budget, said Monday at a White House press conference. The deficits in Trump’s early years in office were necessary, Vought said, “to get the economy going,” which was essentially the reasoning for the deficit-financed Obama stimulus plan a decade ago.

      Now, administration officials and Trump allies say, it’s time for Congress to make trade-offs that reflect Trump’s priorities.

      Democrats say he’s asking them to harm the poor and the middle-class to maintain low tax rates for individuals and corporations and to continue building up the Pentagon at the expense of non-defense agencies, which would see a 5 percent cut in discretionary spending.

      “The cruel and shortsighted cuts in President Trump’s budget request are a roadmap to a sicker, weaker America,” Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said in a statement. “House Democrats will reject this toxic, destructive budget request which would hollow out our national strength and fail to meet the needs of the American people.”

      Trump “is committed” to cutting deficits and eliminating the debt, said Michael Caputo, who worked on his 2016 campaign. “I think he’s now accustomed to the unfortunate reality of the situation, which is neither side has any interest in proper stewardship of the taxpayers’ money.”

      That means hammering lawmakers on both sides of the aisle for blocking his proposals to eliminate federal programs and even spending requests — like the $8.6 billion he wants for a wall along the U.S. border with Mexico — that would add to the expenditure side of the ledger.

      Already, he’s getting pushback from members of his own party on specific provisions. For example, Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, dashed out a press release vowing to fight Trump’s proposal to slash funding for the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative by 90 percent.

      On a more global level, lawmakers are also sure to refuse his calls to make massive cuts to entitlement programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, where his budget envisions reaping savings from kicking the poor and elderly off social insurance programs if those aid recipients don’t work.

      And Democrats say his request for more wall money — in the midst of a fight with Congress over whether he can shift previously appropriated money around for that purpose — is a non-starter. Moreover, they say he’s pinching the poor and middle class through programmatic cuts for what Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass., the vice chairman of the House Budget Committee and a possible 2020 presidential candidate, called “narrow personal political priorities” like tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans and the border wall.

      “The president’s budget is a chance to challenge the country to think big,” said Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass., the vice chairman of the House Budget Committee and a potential 2020 presidential candidate. “President Trump just delivered a budget that challenges America to look backwards to a 1970s economic vision and a 5th century national security vision with a silly wall.”

      Even if Congress enacted every line of Trump’s budget — and make no mistake, it’s actually headed straight for a waste bin in Pelosi’s Capitol office — he would start next year’s campaign stretch run having added trillions of dollars to the debt he promised to eliminate.

      More than that, he has now shown he has no plan for the budget being balanced in any single year until he’s been out of office for at least a decade.

      He can blame Congress all he wants. But the numbers — even the optimistic figures pumped out by his budget office — don’t lie. Trump didn’t just break his promise to eliminate debt; he reversed it.
