House Democrats raise concerns about T-Mobile role in 'Trump Mobile' service
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Three Democrats on the House Energy and Commerce Committee raised serious concerns about T-Mobile's involvement in the Trump Organization's self-branded mobile service and a $499 smartphone dubbed Trump Mobile. Representative Frank Pallone, the ranking member of the committee and two other committee members, asked T-Mobile CEO Mike Sievert to answer questions about the company's dealings with the Trump organization. "We are specifically concerned that T-Mobile's business relationship with the Trump Organization — while Donald Trump is serving as President of the United States — presents a conflict of interest that will harm the American people," they wrote in a letter Wednesday.

Hiker survives after being mauled by brown bear in Alaska
A hiker was rescued after reportedly getting attacked by a brown bear along a trail in Alaska, according to the Anchorage Fire Department. On Tuesday at approximately 3 p.m., officials responded to 911 calls from a hiker "reporting they were mauled by a bear and needed help as soon as possible," the fire department said in a statement. The attack occurred about two miles up the Dome Trail in Anchorage, the local police department confirmed to ABC News. The female hiker -- who has not been identified by officials -- reported that she "could not get out" on her own "due to injuries sustained in the mauling," the fire department said. The woman provided directions to her location on the trail and remained on the phone with officials while they scanned the area to locate her, according to police. Firefighters and paramedics responded to the scene, with drones deployed to help find the hiker, according to officials. Once she was located, she was rescued with a helicopter and transported to a local hospital with "what we believe to be non-life-threatening injuries," police said. MORE: 89-year-old man and dog killed in bear attacks in Florida: Officials Police told ABC News the hiker is in stable condition as of Wednesday and that, at this time, they "will not be sharing her name with the public." The brown bear ran off after the incident, the fire department noted in its statement. As of Tuesday night, Alaska Fish & Game was still trying to locate the bear. Officials said hikers in Anchorage are "encouraged to file trip plans with friends or family prior to trekking off into the great outdoors" and recommend people leave a copy of their trip plans underneath their vehicle's windshield. "Information regarding your planned route can be invaluable as we try to locate you in case of an emergency," the fire department said. With both black and brown bears living within the municipality of Anchorage, the local parks and recreation department provides tips to keep in mind while recreating in any park or trail in the area, including to remain in groups, make noise, carry bear spray, leash all dogs and to never run from a bear. "Stop, group up, talk to the bear and let it know you are human," Anchorage Parks and Recreation said on its website. According to the National Park Service, the majority of bear attacks occur not because the animal is hunting a human, but when it feels threatened or is protecting its young. The only exception is if the bear is "suffering from very severe starvation," the NPS said on its website.

Takeaways of US-Japan deal include potential gains for Trump, Ishiba and EU
(Reuters) -An emerging U.S.-Japanese trade deal could unlock major investment, avert a potential shock to the global economy and may deliver political wins for both U.S. President Donald Trump and Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba, though many specifics of the agreement remain unclear. Here's a closer look at the early takeaways: * The deal stabilizes the global trade outlook by imposing a 15% tariff on Japanese goods — down from a threatened 25% — while Japan commits to investing $550 billion in the U.S. economy, a boost to U.S. jobs. It almost certainly averts a worst-case scenario for the Japanese economy. Moreover, if it signals that the balance of U.S. tariff rates are likely to settle in that range, Jefferies Chief Economist and Strategist for Europe Mohit Kumar said: "the world can live with 15% or so tariffs." * Trump gains some political capital ahead of November 2026 midterm elections by reinforcing his 'America First' trade stance and potentially bolstering his influence with industrial and agricultural constituencies while avoiding the market instability that loomed under earlier tariff threats. Still, not every U.S. constituency was happy with the announcement. The decision has angered the Detroit Three automakers, who still face a 25% levy on significant segments of their non-U.S. produced vehicles. * For Ishiba, the deal is a diplomatic and economic win amid domestic political turbulence. Just days earlier, Japan's ruling coalition lost its majority in upper house elections. * Analysts say the deal could serve as a benchmark for other economies negotiating with Washington, including the EU and China, both facing August tariff deadlines. * American exporters could gain broader access to Japan's markets, especially in autos and agriculture — sectors vital to U.S. economic growth. * Global financial markets are rallying led by automakers. Stocks of major Japanese firms surged following the announcement, and capital inflows are expected to continue as investors seek exposure to Japan's innovation-led growth. * Despite the investment commitments, the deal may not significantly reduce the U.S. trade deficit with Japan in the short term. Critics argue that without stronger enforcement mechanisms or structural reforms, the imbalance could persist. * A 15% tariff, though lower than the threatened 25%, still represents a significantly higher import tax for consumer goods, especially for cars and electronics, which are heavily imported to the U.S. from Japan. Yale Budget Lab last week estimated the overall average U.S. tariff rate under Trump's policy shifts has climbed to around 20% from between 2% and 3% prior to his return to the White House in January.
