Start your day smarter with a dossier on the most important world news, rounded
off with a shot of intriguing and offbeat stories. Like the president, you
deserve no less.

Mar 03, 2022


TODAY

Ukraine’s first city has fallen, officials confirmed this morning, and more than
1 million people have fled the country. Crypto exchanges will likely not ban
Russians from their platforms even after urgent requests from the Ukrainian
government. The White House outlined its COVID-19 strategy moving forward in an
optimistic document. And the Federal Reserve plans to conduct business as usual,
despite growing economic uncertainty. All this and more in today’s PDB.


IMPORTANT

Russia’s War

UKRAINE CONFIRMS FIRST MAJOR CITY HAS FALLEN

The port city of Kherson is the first key city to fall to the Russians and the
coastal city of Mariupol remains under siege. Russian troops continue to gain
ground in the south, threatening Black Sea access, and a convoy of hundreds of
Russian tanks appears to be stalled 16 miles from Kyiv. Kharkiv, Ukraine’s
second-largest city, endured another aerial bombardment last night. A
humanitarian crisis is well underway as more than 1 million people have been
forced to flee Ukraine since the start of the war. A second round of talks
between the warring nations is expected later today. (Sources: BBC, AP, NYT)

Crypto Battlefields

CRYPTOCURRENCY EXCHANGE BOSS RULES OUT TOTAL RUSSIAN BAN

Changpeng Zhao, the founder and CEO of Binance, the world’s largest
cryptocurrency exchange, has refused Ukraine’s request to block all Russian
accounts from the platform. Zhao argued that his company will ban the Russian
individuals on the international sanction list, but banning all Russians would
“fly in the face” of the spirit of cryptocurrencies and their promise of greater
financial freedom across the globe. Many governments imposing sanctions fear
Russian oligarchs will use crypto to bypass their restrictions, saying the
decentralized digital currencies are Putin’s secret financial weapon. (Source:
BBC)

The Way Forward

WHITE HOUSE RELEASES NEW STRATEGY FOR A CHANGING PANDEMIC

The 96-page document released yesterday emphasizes that President Joe Biden’s
administration is seeking to establish a new normal as the latest wave of the
pandemic eases. The plan’s four pillars are to prevent and treat COVID-19 cases,
prepare for new variants, prevent school and business closures, and distribute
vaccines globally. In the long term, officials aim to research a vaccine that
could treat all variants, and establish institutions for treating long COVID. It
remains unclear how the administration intends to fund the initiative, although
Biden has briefed congressional leaders on the need for short-term purchases.

Hike It Up

FED CHAIRMAN JEROME POWELL STILL PLANS TO RAISE INTEREST RATES

Many thought Powell would reconsider his game plan for 2022 given Russia’s
invasion of Ukraine and the financial instability it has caused across global
markets, but the Fed chairman reconfirmed his views on Wednesday. Speaking
before House and Senate committees, Powell said he plans to implement several
quarter-percentage-point increases in the near future, and possibly more
aggressive increases if inflation persists. But that’s unlikely, in Powell’s
view, because he expects inflation to decelerate throughout the year as global
supply chain issues are cleared up. Powell also noted a “tight” labor market and
strong wage gains for lower earners and minorities. (Source: NBC News)

THE CARLOS WATSON SHOW, SEASON 4!





INTRIGUING

Rock-Solid Hunch

NEW RESEARCH SUGGESTS STONEHENGE IS PROBABLY A SOLAR CALENDAR

The giant stone circle built around 2500 B.C. in Wiltshire, England, has
bewildered scientists for centuries. Though theories abound, no one knows where
it came from or how it was built. But now Timothy Darvill, a professor at
Bournemouth University, has offered a sound analysis of the ring’s purpose. The
stones, say Darvill, act as a solar calendar, measuring a solar year of 365.25
days. Each of the 30 stones represents a day of the month and the rings are
divided into three weeks composed of 10 days. The elegant design makes for a
deceptively simple and impressively accurate calendar. (Source: BBC)

Ford for the Future

US AUTO GIANT RESTRUCTURES FOR AN ELECTRIC WORLD

Ford has already generated positive buzz over its F-150 Lightning and Mustang
Mach E — electric versions of its most popular cars. Now the company will split
itself into two separate units to foster its vision for an electric future: Ford
Blue will continue to manufacture traditional vehicles and Ford Model E will
focus on creating new electric models. Some analysts had been pushing Ford to
spin off its electric vehicles into a separate company, but CEO Jim Farley said
it makes more sense for Model E to benefit from Blue’s technology and cash flow
rather than go it alone. (Source: NPR)

Antisocial Media

FORMER US PRESIDENT’S SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM FALLS FLAT

You may remember former President Donald Trump’s frequent boasts that his
platform Truth Social would be a space where free speech could flourish. But on
launch day, most potential users looking to download the app were waitlisted
instead. Now, 10 days later, most are still waiting. The app fell from No. 1 on
the Apple App Store to No. 57, just behind Planet Fitness Workouts. And,
tellingly, its founder and chairman has yet to post anything to the platform.
Trump continues to comment on radio and TV, with nary a word on his own
floundering social media outlet. (Source: Axios)

Gender Justice

MARYLAND HOUSE COMMITTEE VOTES DOWN TRANSGENDER STUDENT SPORTS BAN

The state House Ways and Means Committee defeated the Save Women’s Sports Act
this week, a bill proposed by Republican state Delegate Kathy Szeliga that would
have required intramural and interscholastic sports teams to be “expressly
designated” based on “biological sex.” While it’s a big win for trans rights in
Maryland, other state legislatures are pushing their own versions of the bill.
The governors of both Indiana and Georgia are expected to sign bans in the near
future, and South Dakota has already passed its rendition. More than 50 such
bills have been introduced in state legislatures this year. (Source: The Hill)

Heavy Charges for Heavyweight

FORMER UFC CHAMP CHARGED WITH ATTEMPTED PREMEDITATED MURDER

Two-time heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez also faces multiple gun assault
charges in relation to a shooting earlier this week in San Jose, California.
Velasquez, 39, is accused of targeting Harry Eugene Goularte, who was charged
with molesting a child under the age of 10 — a relative of Velasquez. The UFC
fighter allegedly chased Goularte by car for 11 miles before ramming his truck
and firing a 40-caliber handgun multiple times into it. Velasquez, considered
one of the best heavyweight fighters of all time, will face over 20 years in
jail if convicted. (Source: ESPN)
