    Euro 2024: Netherlands gets a lift from Wout Weghorst
    Netherlands forward Wout Weghorst’s return to major tournament action Sunday was a happy event — scoring late off the bench and this time decisively in a 2-1 win over Poland to begin a European Championship group that includes title favorite France.
    The imposing striker struck with a low left-foot shot in the 83rd minute with his first touch after coming on to replace Memphis Depay, who had missed several shooting chances as the Dutch appeared sure to waste a winning opportunity.

    Trump’s very bad idea on trade, taxes
    Former president Donald Trump just can’t let a bad idea go. On Thursday, while meeting with Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill, Trump reportedly raised the idea of swapping higher taxes on imports for lower income taxes. It’s a tax scheme that makes little sense from virtually any perspective it is considered.
    “President Trump says ‘this is an idea, but I’d love to raise tariffs’ and then he said, ‘and maybe even no income taxes on Americans.’ Ev

    Americans concerned about the U.S. Supreme Court’s views on abortion may have been confused on Thursday when the court issued a unanimous ruling that maintained access to the abortion drug mifepristone. After all, this is the same court that overturned Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 ruling that blocked states from banning abortion in the early months of pregnancy.
