She has until this afternoon to decide if — and under what terms — she’ll testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee next week. Meanwhile, a Guardian exposé says Kavanaugh’s female clerk applicants needed to “look like models.” Recently considered assured, his confirmation now seems imperiled, with opinion polls showing more Americans oppose than favor Kavanaugh’s placement on the high court.

In his first appearance at the meeting last year, he shocked his peers with a threat to “totally destroy” North Korea. This year, he plans to focus on Iran in the wake of his unilateral withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear agreement — and this time, he controls the agenda.

It raises myriad thorny issues like Northern Ireland going without currently Irish-supplied electricity and a cutoff of diabetics’ EU-produced insulin supply. Amid such uncertainty, companies are preparing for the worst — even to the point of stockpiling medicine and nonperishable food.

In response, Taiwan is preparing to provide incentives, like relaxing land-use regulations and expanding tax breaks, to lure its China-based companies back home. Although U.S. tariffs on $200 billion of Chinese exports will kick in shortly, analysts aren’t expecting a huge impact on Taiwan — yet. That is, unless the trade war begins targeting consumer electronic products, which are Taiwan’s bread and butter.
