NEWS: U.S. and China agree to a 90-day pause on new tariffs after shipping to U.S. ports plummeted. Tariffs on Chinese imports will be cut from 145% to 30%. Tariffs on U.S. imports will be cut from 125% to 10%. If tariffs should result in massive job growth and make the U.S. rich, why lower them?

Most Americans frequently use federal science information. But few are concerned that cuts to federal science spending could affect their access to such information, a new poll finds.

No one can predict the future and obviously Trump has no actual plan, but it sure SEEMS like the likelihood of him just reinstating the punitive country-by-country tariffs at the end of the 90 day pause is a very live possibility! #EffThosePenguins
