1/ The U.S., Mexico, and Canada reached a deal to revise the North American Free Trade Agreement, which will be known as the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. Trump called the agreement “historic news,� “an extraordinary agreement,� and “a new dawn,� claiming that it “solves the many deficiencies and mistakes in NAFTA� and that it’s “the most important� trade deal ever agreed to by the U.S. The new trade deal leaves much of the old NAFTA deal intact.

Smyth, high school friends of Kavanaugh’s; Leland Keyser, a high school friend of Christine Blasey Ford; and Deborah Ramirez, another of the accusers.
