Patti Domm, CBC: Trump and Xi meet Saturday — If it goes poorly, the global economy could teeter into recession
* The outcome of the G-20 meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and China President Xi Jinping could be a watershed moment that could impact the course of markets and the global economy for the second half of the year.
* The G-20 summit in Osaka could end in a ‘feel good’ moment for markets, but the thorny issues in U.S.-Chinese trade talks are unlikely to be resolved and tariffs are expected to continue.
* The meeting between President Trump and President Xi Saturday could lead to improved negotiations but the drag on the economy from tariffs and weakened sentiment is expected to continue until there is a real deal.
* One economist said if the talks fail and the trade war escalates, the world is at risk of a recession.
Stocks are likely to see a temporary relief rally and bonds could sell off if there is a ‘ceasefire’ declared in the trade wars by the U.S. and China this weekend, but the damage to the global economy could continue until a tariff-ending deal is struck.
Wall Street has been handicapping the outcome of the much anticipated meeting between President Donald Trump and President Xi Jinping, and many investors believe the two will likely agree to hold off on new tariffs and restart negotiations, but existing tariffs would not be rolled back by much, if at all.

Judge says Democrats can begin collecting Trump financial records in emoluments suit
This was done before by Democrats who were hailed as heroes in both instances.
Panting and very pathetic panting at that.

If the US were to drop CO2 levels to zero, or if we just disappeared into thin air it would only drop world wide CO2 levels to some where around 2005-07 numbers...makes you wonder where all the CO2 is coming from.
Can they attach them to the Steele dossier just so we know they are verified...
I believe you mean CO; Cabon Monoxide not Carbon Dioxide. However; if it's CO2; that comes from making Beer 🍻
Have a drink 😁
