New York CNN — Some of the last cargo ships carrying Chinese goods without crippling tariffs are currently drifting into US ports. Come next week, though, that will change. Cargo on ships from China loaded after April 9 will carry with them the 145% tariff President Donald Trump slapped on goods from that nation last month. Next week, those goods will arrive, but there will be fewer ships at sea and they will be carrying less cargo. For many importers, it is too expensive to do business with China. Yet China is still one of America’s most important trading partners.…
CNN — In the space of a few hours, Donald Trump went from hailing America’s new “golden age” to warning parents their kids would have fewer toys — and they’d cost more. The president’s dizzying switch this week epitomized the hype surrounding his “Make America wealthy again” promise and the pain it might take to get there.

CNN — President Donald Trump’s drive to deport immigrants and block new arrivals could chip away at Social Security’s finances at a time when the program is already on shaky financial footing, experts say. In addition to Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s push for more removals, the Trump administration is also trying to convince certain immigrants to “self-deport.” The efforts include entering more than 6,000 immigrants’ names into the Social Security Administration’s database used to track dead people, which effectively cuts them off from being able to work, access financial services and receive public benefits. The move targets those who may…
CNN — The United States and Ukraine have signed an “economic partnership agreement” that will give Washington access to Kyiv’s rare earth minerals in exchange for establishing an investment fund in Ukraine. The US and Ukraine have been trying to hammer out the natural resources agreement since US President Donald Trump returned to the White House in January. The deal comes after weeks of intense negotiations that at times turned bitter and temporarily derailed Washington’s aid to Ukraine. Speaking Wednesday in a call with NewsNation, Trump said he told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during their weekend meeting on the sidelines…
Seoul, South Korea CNN — The world is arming itself at the fastest rate since near the end of the Cold War, according to a new report, as major wars rage in Ukraine and Gaza and military tensions spike from Europe to Asia.

A new means of prostate cancer screening could emerge as an alternative to the PSA test, which has long been the first-line option.Using machine learning, a form of artificial intelligence, Swedish researchers analyzed urine samples from more than 2,000 men with prostate cancer, along with a control group.They determined that the simple, non-invasive urine test was able to detect biomarkers of prostate cancer with a high degree of accuracy — and could also determine the grade (stage) of the disease.The results were published in the journal Cancer Research.PROSTATE CANCER DRUG NOW AVAILABLE TO MORE PATIENTS WITH AGGRESSIVE FORM OF DISEASE”Prostate…
