Now facing the worst oil crisis in history, Trump is calling on other nations, including France, Japan, South Korea and Britain, to work together to secure the strait. To persuade China, Trump is exerting additional pressure. CNN also reported that Iran is considering allowing some tankers through the strait if the oil is traded in Chinese yuan. China, one of Iran’s most important strategic partners and the biggest purchaser of its oil, has even less reason to side with Trump. China is relatively insulated from the oil crisis, but it is not immune to its widening effects on energy prices.

Forbes wrote that Kalder had a $35 million valuation and brought in $1.5 million in revenue in 2024. Despite Güven’s exaggerations, her employees did have a service to sell to clients, which is not always a given for 30 Under 30 alumni. They added her to the so-called Forbes 30 Under 30 pipeline to prison, a reference to the pattern of young founders who make the list and, often within years, face indictments. “The 30 Under 30 list is, by definition, future-facing, and not even Warren Buffett can predict with 100 percent accuracy.”Founded in 2011, the Forbes 30 Under 30 is perhaps the magazine’s second-best-well-known product behind its live count of the richest people in the world. This year’s Forbes 30 Under 30 list was published a few months back with close to 10 percent of those honored coming from UC Berkeley.

The Trump administration is stepping up its ambitious effort to replace about $1.6 trillion in lost tariff revenue that was eliminated by the Supreme Court’s decision to strike down a range of the president’s import taxes. It could be months or more before it is clear how much revenue the replacement tariffs will yield. Some of Trump’s import taxes remain place, including previous tariffs on China and Canada that were imposed after earlier 301 investigations. The administration’s efforts also are unusual because they reflect an overreliance on tariffs to bring in more government revenue. “If we want to raise revenue through tariffs, then Congress should impose a broad based tariff.”Rugaber writes for the Associated Press.

So, she was relieved when a mobile street medicine van from St. John’s Community Health pulled up near her encampment last month. Most of an estimated $1 billion in annual revenue generated would be used to protect safety-net health care at community clinics, hospitals, and schools. Advocates and health care experts say finding new revenue is the only way to avoid a crisis in California’s health care system. “This new reality is that we have to do our work with less money going into the future,” said Hector Flores, president-elect of the Los Angeles County Medical Association. Last month, for example, L.A. County’s Department of Public Health announced it was closing seven clinics due to $50 million in federal, state, and local funding cuts.
