Description
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo addressed lingering tension between the United States and China over TikTok’s sale, trade and threats to national security. America’s top diplomat urged United Nations colleagues to restore sanctions on Iran, and Pompeo vowed to continue to go after China for policies demanding that all Chinese companies are “beholden to their security apparatus.” Former Vice President Joe Biden stated his case for uniting a coronavirus-fatigued America on the final night of the Democratic National Convention. Frank Luntz, pollster and political strategist, says “Joe Biden is ahead, and the challenges for Donald Trump are significant” heading into next week’s GOP convention. Plus, Burberry’s high-fashion masks, Tesla’s stock split and ridesharing companies Lyft and Uber received an emergency stay to continue operations in California.
