Editorial Roundup: United States

Editorials say the GOP is weakening health coverage, the Iran war could widen security and economic fallout, and nuclear rivalry is intensifying.

  • To avoid an Iranian assassination attempt, President Donald Trump traveled on an Air Force C-32A hidden in a catering container during a secret flight from Turkey last month.
  • As arms-control treaties lapse, South Korea and Japan are openly considering nuclear weapons to achieve parity with China and North Korea, with the Doomsday Clock at 85 seconds to midnight.
  • Federal agents fatally shot food-delivery driver Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero in Biddeford, Maine, and construction worker Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston, yet agencies have refused to answer public questions about the shootings.
  • President Trump and Republicans enacted cuts to Affordable Care Act subsidies, causing three million people to lose health insurance this year and erasing half the law's gains by 2034.
  • Economic stability faces pressure as Japan's yen slides toward 160 to the dollar, complicating efforts to manage US treasury sales while analysts warn diplomatic spats should not disrupt nuclear communication lines.
