WHAT IF CHINA AND THE US ACTUALLY GOT ALONG? Following the end of the war of resistance against Japanese aggression in 1945, Chiang Kai-shek, head of the KMT-led nationalist government, invited Mao, head of the Communist forces, to the wartime capital of Chongqing to discuss China’s future and the relationship between the two rival parties. Under the auspices of the US and encouraged by the then Soviet Union, Mao flew to Chongqing for 43 days of talks, known as the Chongqing Negotiations, which led to a peace pact known as the Double Tenth Agreement. Although the two long-time enemies did…
Giuliani has been under pressure to turn over assets to pay a $148m penalty to Georgia election workers he allegedly defamed.A judge in the United States has found Rudy Giuliani, an ally of President-elect Donald Trump, in contempt of court for his failure to fully respond to requests about his assets.

Indeed, when the Ariel Dorfman character confesses his haunted past, insisting he was responsible for Claudio Jimeno’s martyrdom, Adrián assures him that he is wrong. It isn’t true that he died instead of you, Adrián says. Your friend would have died even if you hadn’t changed shifts with him. He wanted to be at La Moneda, would have gone there anyway, regardless of your own actions. They murdered all the president’s advisers. You couldn’t have saved him, just like I, Adrián avers, couldn’t save Allende, even though I was close to him — two meters away — when he died.As…
Even though the Big Apple is the richest city in the U.S., with nearly 350,000 millionaires and 60 billionaires, New York State doesn’t even crack the top 10 when it comes to the usage of private jets, according to data from aviation safety company Argus International.The data, which was analyzed by the travel company Rustic Pathways, calculated the number of private jets in every state per 100,000 residents and found that Alaska was awash in private planes.

A wastewater treatment plant in CaliforniaJustin Sullivan/Getty Images Wastewater treatment facilities are a major source of PFAS contamination in drinking water in the US – they discharge enough of the “forever chemicals” to raise concentrations above safe levels for an estimated 15 million people or more. They can also release long-lasting prescription drugs into the water supply. Even though these plants clean wastewater, they do not destroy all the contaminants added upstream – and the chemicals that remain behind are released back into the same waterways that supply drinking water. “It’s a funnel into the environment,” says Bridger Ruyle at…

Over the last year, Spectrum’s editors have noticed an emerging through line connecting several major stories: the centrality of technology to geopolitics. Last month, our cover story, done in partnership with Foreign Policy magazine, was on the future of submarine warfare. And last October, we focused on how sea drones could bolster Taiwan’s “silicon shield” strategy, which rests on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.’s domination of high-end chip manufacturing. So when I asked the curator of this issue, Senior Editor Samuel K. Moore, what he saw as the major theme as we head into 2025, I wasn’t surprised when he said,…
As expected, the insane Democrats did not get their way, and reason prevailed. The U.S. Congress formally certified President-elect Donald Trump’s November election victory over Vice President Kamala Harris. Biden said he would not allow Trump to take the White House. Jamie Raskin wanted to say that Trump didn’t file a form, and that would stop him from becoming president. All of this outright political hatred gave way to the more typical political Washington civil war, where they will all now try to obstruct everything Trump does, as was their agenda the last time, proving Democracy only exists when they…
