Dear Larry: China threatens American preeminence and President Trump is right to worry about it. But you’re going about it the wrong way, and your approach will produce results very different from what you expect or want. The world isn’t lining up with us. It’s lining up against US. China and its One Belt, One Road economic sphere—stretching from Turkey to the Philippines—represents the world’s fastest-growing consumer market. China will open its market selectively, bribing our erstwhile friends and allies. It might take a minor hit to growth (between 0.5% and 1% of GDP growth per year, according to most estimates), but it will survive a trade war with the US with an expanded Asian market.

After decades of implementation, it's clear that the Endangered Species Act (ESA) has a sad record of identifying and recovering endangered species while it's been used to stymie economic growth and trample on private property rights.
This week, the U.S. House will vote on an anti-carbon tax resolution, introduced earlier this year by Reps. Steve Scalise (R-LA) and David McKinley (R-WV), “expressing the sense of Congress that a carbon tax would be detrimental to the United States economy.” Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI) energy and environmental policy experts said the following about H.Con.Res 119. Carbon taxes are not a solution to anything except increasing government revenues and control over people. Carbon taxes will raise the cost of electricity, motor fuels, airfares, manufactured products, transporting freight, food, and anything else that uses energy. Nearly every proposed carbon tax proposal includes an automatic escalator, which means even if the tax starts small it will go up every year—ever increasing tax revenues without having to vote for them.

The Ninth Circuit Protects Gun Rights and Stops Confiscation
Every now and then the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals — arguably the nation’s most progressive federal circuit — can offer up a legal surprise. Yesterday, it gave us a legal shock, when a divided panel of its judges affirmed last year’s federal district-court injunction temporarily blocking enforcement of California’s confiscatory ban on so-called large-capacity magazines.

She met with Donald Trump Jr. and lived with a Republican consultant. Where will this investigation lead? Amid the sprawling scandal over Russian interference with the 2016 election, there’s long been an odd subplot over Russian ties to, of all groups, the National Rifle Association — ties that, according to McClatchy, have been investigated by the FBI. Now the arrest of 29-year-old Russian national Maria Butina on charges of conspiracy and acting as an agent of a foreign government has put those questions about the famous gun rights group on center stage. But despite the new indictment (which is not part of special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe), the full extent of what happened here remains mysterious.
