Chinese leader Xi Jinping’s government is promising to drag the economy out of a crisis of confidence aggravated by tensions with Washington, wilting exports, job losses and anxiety among foreign companies about an expanded anti-spying law BEIJING -- The Fangbiaogan Real Estate Agency in the southern city of Nanning is still waiting for China’s post-COVID rebound. Home sales are 30-40% below last year's depressed level after the economy barely grew in the latest quarter, according to the owner, who would give only his surname, Cai. He has cut staff by 80% to 40 employees.

The Tennessee teacher’s association has filed a federal lawsuit against the state education department’s restrictions on curriculum regarding race in public schools. A teachers association in Tennessee has filed a federal lawsuit against the state education department's restrictions on curriculum regarding race and gender in public schools. The Tennessee Education Association and five Tennessee public school educators behind the lawsuit believe the Tennessee policy that bans certain concepts from being included in curriculum, programs or supplemental materials complicates how students learn about "controversial" subjects such as slavery, the Holocaust, 9/11 and more. “There is no group of individuals more passionate and committed to ensuring Tennessee students receive a high-quality Education than public school educators,” said Tanya T. Coats, a Knox County educator and Tennessee Education Association President. “This law interferes with Tennessee teachers’ job to prov...

Trump, DeSantis and four other candidates, but not Pence, seem to have qualified for the first Republican primary debate, on Aug. 23 in Milwaukee Donald Trump, Ron DeSantis, Tim Scott, Vivek Ramaswamy, Nikki Haley and Chris Christie all appear to have met the qualifications to attend the first GOP primary debate next month in Milwaukee, after having reached the polling thresholds set by the Republican National Committee and -- the candidates say -- the fundraising requirements, too. Missing from that list, so far, is former Vice President Mike Pence, though Pence insists he will have enough donors to make the debate and has already drawn enough support in early polls. The RNC announced criteria in June that the candidates must meet on polling, fundraising, status and pledging in order to earn a spot on stage on Aug. 23. Candidates have until 48 hours before the debate to qualify, per the RNC. The party has not yet publicly confirmed which candidates have qualified, though officials hav...

Spain's general election Sunday could make the country the latest European Union member to shift to the political right MADRID -- Voters in Spain go to the polls Sunday in an election that could make the country the latest European Union member to swing to the populist right, a shift that would represent a major upheaval after five years under a left-wing government. Here's what you need to know about the vote. ___ WHAT IS AT STAKE? Opinion polls indicate the political right has the edge going into the election , and that raises the possibility a neo-fascist party will be part of Spain's next government. The extreme right has not been in power in Spain since the transition to democracy following the death of former dictator Francisco Franco in 1975. With no party expected to win an absolute majority, the choice for voters is basically between another leftist governing coalition or one between the right and the far right. The right-of-center Popular Party, the front-runne...
