- Trump will travel to Iowa, seeking to shore up political support in a state critical to his rural coalition, as mounting stress in the farm economy and delays on biofuel policy test the patience of farmers and renewable-fuel producers.
- One year after its launch, Trump's Golden Dome missile-defense initiative has made little visible progress, bogged down by technical disputes and concerns over space‑based components that have delayed the release of billions of dollars and stalled one of his most ambitious national security projects.

Four Starbucks CEOs over five years have blamed lost sales on its struggle to keep its thousands of US stores reliably stocked with coffeehouse essentials like milk, pastries, and cup lids. Current CEO Brian Niccol has made fixing the shortages a main measure of his turnaround campaign. But shortages at Starbucks are a more deeply rooted problem than has been publicly reported. And Niccol's ongoing efforts to keep shelves stocked have so far met with limited success as he encounters outdated technology and a splintered network of suppliers, according to Reuters interviews with 10 current and former Starbucks corporate employees, including senior managers. |
