Everything is coming in two weeks

From overhauling the tax code to releasing an infrastructure package to making decisions on Nafta and the Paris climate agreement, President Trump has a common refrain: A big announcement is coming in just “two weeks.” It rarely does. Trump’s habit of imposing–then missing–two-week deadlines for major announcements has become a staple of his administration as it’s struggled to amass policy wins.

With just two days left before the U.K. general election, Conservative Prime Minister Theresa May dispatched her foreign secretary Boris Johnson to northeast England to get the most out of traditional Labour strongholds that supported Brexit. Forget projections putting Labour within spitting distance of Conservatives in the June 8 election. Privately, officials and candidates in the U.K.’s main opposition party are preparing to lose dozens of seats.

Trump backed the Saudi-led diplomatic isolation of Qatar. In a series of tweets, he called it just punishment for the country’s financial support for Islamic extremists.

Several dozen countries have privatized air traffic control, something the White House is pressing to do. For passengers, though, the paramount question is obvious: Would a private system be any less safe?

What you need to earn to send your kid to college. When comparing tuition versus cost of living in the U.S., Hawaii requires a salary higher than any other to live comfortably while paying tuition, and Indiana the lowest, according to a study. Of course college is not particularly affordable in the U.S. Even in Indiana, the required salary was well above the state's median household income of $49,255.

Business class is replacing first on many airplanes and routes—it’s simply a less expensive, less expansive version of first class that still features lie-flat beds, multicourse menus created by celebrity chefs, and amenity kits. It makes room for more seats, which means more money to be made. And the seats in business class are getting technological and ergonomic updates.
