"The results of the full admission of Bulgaria and Romania to Schengen are not a one-off effect but will intensify with deeper economic integration between European countries, which means that each successive postponement will cause greater lost benefits for both the Bulgarian and the European economy," Nikolov said, as quoted by Euractiv.

Vice President Kamala Harris is gunning for businesses with a plan to hike taxes. As part of her presidential campaign, Harris is pushing to hike the corporate tax rate to 28 percent, a move that critics say could hit the economy hard just as the country tries to steady itself. Harris campaign spokesman James Singer confirmed the plan to NBC News, claiming—without evidence— that the tax increase is "a fiscally responsible way to put money back in the pockets of working people and ensure billionaires and big corporations pay their fair share." Contrary to Singer's claim, raising taxes on businesses does not put money back in the pockets of working people.

PARIS — All of the world's worst people must have loved JD Vance's speech Wednesday at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee and must be taking great comfort in the plan to push America into a new and profoundly isolationist direction. If the U.S., as Vance proposes, retracts from Europe and much of its traditional activities abroad and, not to mention, erects new barriers to commerce and the free exchange of ideas, it would create a vacuum ready to be filled.

Now, however, we're seeing all that soft power and oil-backed loans fizzle out as various think tanks note that China is increasingly choosing Arab oil over African crude. .
