Everything looks to be going China’s way: Beijing has a stranglehold on the world’s critical minerals, and its high-tech manufacturing has rapidly become world-leading.

The truth is a little more nuanced than that. ⁠ ⁠ Soumaya Keynes speaks to Jessica Chen Weiss, director of the Institute for America, China, and the Future of Global Affairs at Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in our bio to listen to the full podcast. ⁠

Iran and Israel signaled on Monday that they were ready to wind down a military escalation that briefly shattered a fragile two-month cease-fire and brought the Middle East back to the precipice of full-blown war. Iran’s military said that it was ceasing its attacks for now. But it warned that if Israel resumed its own strikes, including in southern Lebanon, “much harsher and more forceful actions than before will follow.” Read our live coverage on the Middle East at the link in our bio.

In December 2024, Rob Field — then a top aide to Dem New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy — swiped right on the dating app profile of a woman who identified herself as Leah Andrews. After months of texting, he thought she might be his “forever person.” But around five months after they met, recorded videos of their dates and calls were posted online by conservative influencer Steven Crowder. The woman was not Leah Andrews, according to a lawsuit filed this week by Field, but a Florida woman named Alysia Gamble. According to public records and online videos we reviewed, Gamble was a former QAnon organizer, and her pursuit of Field wasn’t an isolated project. We identified at least three other instances in which Gamble went undercover to court men in an attempt to capture viral content later published online by Crowder or conservative activist James O’Keefe. Crowder’s media company did not return our request for comment, and O’Keefe, who is not named in the lawsuit, declined to comment. Read the full exclusive story from our @d.han at the link in bio.

President Trump was loudly booed by NBA Finals fans at Madison Square Garden and Bryant Park when he appeared on the big screens during the national anthem and again after halftime.⁠ ⁠ “He’s welcome to be here,” NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said on ABC’s pregame coverage. “I think that’s what makes sports so special, especially when there’s so much that divides people, is it’s something that we have in common.”⁠ ⁠ Heavy security blanketed the area around the arena, with many people waiting in long lines to enter. Trump sat in a suite with Knicks owner James Dolan, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy and his granddaughter Kai Trump. Silver also was spotted in the suite.⁠ ⁠ The home team was defeated by the San Antonio Spurs 115-111, ending a 13-game winning streak.⁠ ⁠ Read more at the link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ Photo: Saul Loeb/Agence France-Presse/Getty Images

The MAHA moms who helped elect Trump are out of patience. Many among the group of vaccine skeptics and healthy food crusaders say their vote is up for grabs in the midterms after a string of perceived losses on pesticides and chemical regulations, disappointing leadership picks, and an unpopular war in Iran.
