Trump is reportedly set to relax U.S. ban on land mines
President Trump will announce as early as Friday that he will undo restrictions on using or acquiring land mines enacted by former President Barack Obama in 2014, two U.S. officials tell Reuters. Obama had moved to stop all U.S. production and acquisition of anti-personnel mines, including to replace degraded stockpiles. The U.S. is not among the more than 160 signatories to the 1997 Mine Ban Treaty, but it adheres to many of its provisions and prohibits the use of anti-personnel mines outside of the Korean peninsula, Reuters says. "The resumption of the use of anti-personnel land mines and continued stockpiling and production of these indiscriminate weapons is militarily unnecessary and dangerous," said Daryl Kimball at the Arms Control Association. The U.S. hasn't used land mines since a single anti-personnel mine in Afghanistan in 2002, Kimball's group says, and the last time the U.S. military used mines in any significant way was in the 1991 Gulf War.

A little-known trucking company surges nearly 58% after Volkswagen makes a surprise offer to buy
Hardly a household name, truck manufacturer Navistar’s stock rose to sudden popularity Thursday, continuing into Friday’s pre-market trading. Shares surged as much as 57.7% Friday after Volkswagen’s trucking arm, Traton, made an unsolicited offer to buy the company for $US2.9 billion, or $US35 per share, Thursday. Volkswagen, which already owns a 16.76% stake in Navistar, said it would pay entirely in cash. The two companies are some of the biggest in the truck-making industry. But to make the acquisition, Volkswagen will have to get the blessing of activist investor Carl Icahn: The billionaire’s fund owns about 17% of Navistar’s outstanding stock, making Icahn Navistar’s single largest shareholder. The offer comes at a time when the broader trucking manufacturing industry is in a slump, with new orders in decline, The Wall Street Journal previously reported. In its most recent earnings, Navistar’s fourth quarter revenue declined versus the year prior. The stock started the year sliding downwards after it trailed…

The EU’s Risky Green Taxonomy
European Union member states and the European Parliament are soon expected to adopt a so-called “taxonomy” for classifying green investments, after reaching an agreement last month on a list of “sustainable” economic activities. Once the new system enters into force, most likely this year, the European Commission will use this list to determine which financial assets and products are sustainable. This taxonomy is the backbone of the Commission’s regulatory package on sustainable finance, which has the ambitious goal of “reorient[ing] capital flows towards sustainable investment, in order to achieve sustainable and inclusive growth.” The Commission hopes that the new labelling scheme will address the problem of market players “greenwashing” non-sustainable financial products and serve as the basis for policy incentives to promote sustainable investment. To be fit for purpose, however, the taxonomy must address three important questions. Unfortunately, the EU’s one-dimensional approach disregards two of the three…

Phony Ppl – “Fkn Around” (Feat. Megan Thee Stallion)
Megan Thee Stallion played a Tiny Desk Concert backed by the Brooklyn neo-soul band Phony Ppl last month. During the performance, they debuted a brand new collaboration called "Fkn Around." Today, they're finally sharing the studio version of the song, and as you might be able to guess from the title, "Fkn Around" is a smoothly funky jam about fucking around: "You got a man, but you're fuckin' around/ Riskin' it all, baby, just to get down." "We have some overlapping people on our teams," Phony Ppl singer Elbee Thrie tells NPR, explaining how the collab came to be. "One of them brought the song to her with a disclaimer, 'I know you don't usually do this.' But she gave it an organic listen and was feelin' it. And with the topic being what it was, having a woman on the song who could pen a great verse was what we wanted. And that's exactly what she did." Listen to "Fkn Around" below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STpRa2JPFA0

Drake & Future – “Desires”
A few weeks ago, Drake and Future resumed their longtime partnership — highlighted by the 2015 collaborative album What A Time To Be Alive — with a new collaborative single called "Life Is Good." The song debuted at #2, becoming Future's biggest chart hit ever and giving Drake the record for most Hot 100 entries. Despite being credited to Future with Drake as a featured artist, "Life Is Good" fueled rumors of a new collaborative release from the superstar duo. Now another Drake and Future track is out, so those rumors are not likely to go away. Whereas "Life Is Good" was essentially a Drake song and a Future song stitched together with an awkward faux-"Sicko Mode" beat switch, the new "Desires" is basically a Drake song that Future lurks through for a few seconds. Produced by d.hill, it's one of those soft and airy songs in which Drake sweetly sings bitter words at a woman he's contentiously involved with. One memorable extremely Drake sequence: "How the fuck you keep so many secrets
