Home - CBSNews.com | The Iran war's economic hit could linger through 2026, economists say AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. In the eight weeks since the Iran war began, the conflict has pushed U.S. gasoline prices above $4 a gallon, driven Brent crude up 44% to $105 a barrel, and lifted inflation to its highest level in nearly two years, prompting economists to warn of lingering economic damage. Disruption of oil flow through the Strait of Hormuz has raised energy costs, which are expected to stay above pre‑war levels throughout 2026, dampening consumer purchasing power, inflating grocery and travel expenses, and potentially trimming U.S. GDP growth by about 0.3 percentage points this year. While higher‑income households have kept spending resilient, broader economic headwinds—rising energy prices, AI‑related job cuts, and ongoing tariff uncertainty—are likely to keep inflation elevated and strain the broader economy for months to come.

Sweden Herald - Latest Sweden News | After scandal rumblings: Third Trump secretary leaves by Sweden Herald AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. U.S. Labor Secretary Lori Chávez‑DeRemer announced she is leaving the Labor Department for the private sector amid a whistleblower‑initiated internal investigation and a Senate Judiciary Committee probe into allegations that she had an extramarital affair with a security staffer, took private trips and stayed in luxury hotels at taxpayers’ expense, drank alcohol while on duty and sent inappropriate texts to younger colleagues; her husband, Shawn DeRemer, has also been barred from the department after multiple female employees accused him of sexual harassment. Though no formal misconduct charges have been filed and President Donald Trump has called the accusations “baseless,” Deputy Labor Secretary Keith Sonderling will assume an acting role, making Chávez‑DeRemer the third Trump‑appointed secretary to depart in a short span after Attorney General Pam Bondi and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem were forced out earlier in the year.

The Daily Beast Latest Articles | Trump’s Personal Vendetta Now Costing America $1 Billion by Catherine Bouris Kevin Lamarque/ReutersThe Trump administration will pay an energy company almost $1 billion to not build offshore wind farms in the U.S. as part of the president’s vendetta against clean energy. Reversing a deal made during the Biden administration, the White House will pay TotalEnergies $928 million to abandon its plans to build wind farms off the coast of New York and North Carolina, reimbursing the French multinational the amount it paid for the leases during Biden’s presidency. TotalEnergies will then invest the reimbursed funds in oil and gas projects in the U.S., including a facility in Texas, and pledge to increase oil production in the Gulf of Mexico.

Trump says that his team has been talking with an Iranian leader about a deal to end the war. Iran says no negotiation have been held, with Iranian parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf posting on X: "fakenews is used to manipulate the financial and oil markets.” Meanwhile Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says his army will continue to strike Iran and Lebanon, regardless of any deal between the U.S. and Iran.

The first sign of what was to come from Trump 2.0 may have been in the North Idaho town of Coeur d’Alene, where barely a month after the inauguration, black-clad private security officers violently dragged protestor Teresa Borrenpohl from a Republican town hall. For @motherjonesmag@flipboard.com, Michael Edison Hayden writes about how extremists conquered the area, and the growing group in Coeur d’Alene that have become fed up with being seen as a hub of hate. https://flip.it/X6ePm0 #TrumpAdministration #Idaho #Extremism #USPolitics
