Budget office says Trump's tax law will add $3.4 trillion to deficits, leave 10 million uninsured
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump's tax and spending law will add $3.4 trillion to federal deficits through 2034, the Congressional Budget Office reported Monday, a slight increase in the projection that takes into account the final tweaks that Republicans made before getting the legislation over the finish line. More than 10 million people will be uninsured under the law in 2034 because of the law, CBO found, an improvement from an earlier projection that found 11.8 million people losing coverage over the decade. The release of the CBO analysis Monday comes at the end of a grueling legislative fight, but at the start of a longer political struggle to come as the two parties clash over the law's impact on the economy, healthcare and government programs. Republicans are touting the bill as a tax cut for all Americans, yet a recent AP-NORC poll found about two-thirds of U.S. adults expect the new tax law will help the rich as Democrats attack the legislation. The bill Trump signed into law on July 4 extended current tax rates for individuals that were set to expire at the end of this year and temporarily created new tax deductions for tips, overtime and auto interest loans for new vehicles assembled in the U.S. Republicans also used the bill to cut future spending on Medicaid and food assistance, and to phase out certain clean energy tax credits more quickly. Democrats were quick to highlight the CBO's findings. 'Today's report reminds us of something: facts are stubborn and the facts are clear,' said Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer. 'The big, ugly betrayal is a loser for the country and will be a loser for the Republicans." Republicans say the bill was critical to ensure most Americans didn't experience a significant tax increase next year. Trump and Republicans have also insisted that economic growth will exceed the CBO's projections for the next decade, erasing the projected deficits as more revenue comes into the Treasury than anticipated. Nonpartisan fiscal watchdogs also highlighted the CBO's latest projection. Maya MacGuineas, president of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, said there will be a shorter-term 'sugar high' as stimulus makes its way through the economy. But modelers from across the ideological spectrum agree that any sustained economic changes are likely to be modestly beneficial, or negative. 'And not one serious estimate claims this bill will improve our fiscal situation,' MacGuineas said. 'Rather, positive growth effects are likely to be swamped by the effects of higher debt and interest rates.' The CBO said more than $1 trillion in deficit savings is generated through the health portions of the bill, which includes new work requirements for certain Medicaid beneficiaries in states that expanded the program through the Affordable Care Act. Some late changes on Medicaid were made to the bill to win over holdouts. One of those changes added a $50 billion fund for rural hospitals. __ Associated Press writer Mary Clare Jalonick contributed to this report.

OPM keen on using AI to increase ‘efficiency' of jobs — as federal agency cuts staff by one-third
WASHINGTON — The Office of Public Management is interested in using AI to increase 'efficiency' of jobs in its quest to downsize the US government, the agency's new director told reporters Monday. Scott Kupor, a former venture capitalist, said he has a 'Silicon Valley' mentality when it comes to motivating employees and maximizing performance, and is looking to integrate AI into some of the agency's tasks. 'I view AI as probably the most significant disinflationary technology that I think we have seen yet today,' Kupor told The Post in a meeting with reporters. Advertisement 'What I mean by that is basically AI, however you deploy it, it's not gonna replace everybody's jobs, but I think AI can massively increase the efficiency of a lot of jobs, and certainly, as we know, it'll probably create new job opportunities as well.' 3 Scott Kupor, Director of the Office of Personnel Management, hopes to integrate AI into the federal agency. AP While AI won't be used to cut jobs outright, the agency has been working to drastically downsize its number of employees. Advertisement OPM is on track to cut one-third of its staff by Dec. 31, largely through voluntary departures, from 3,110 employees to around 2,000. The number of contractors used by OPM is also set to be slashed from 1,200 to about 600, the agency said. Kupor mentioned customer service and information combing — like going through the tens of thousands of comments the agency gets — as some of the tasks potentially fit for artificial technology. While the hard writing of OPM is not what he's looking to change with AI, Kupor said its 'hard to imagine' that in a few years we won't be able to 'significantly increase the efficiency' of the comment reading process 'by at least having some of that summarization, some of the kind of information gathering, information dissemination being enhanced by AI.' Advertisement 3 The Theodore Roosevelt Federal Building headquarters of the US Office of Personnel Management in Washington, DC. Getty Images As the agency's new head, he said he wants OPM employees to be 'prepared' for work in an AI 'forward way' — as President Trump has made clear he wants the US to be the global leader in AI innovation. 'I think it's a good bet that the types of jobs that we will need five or 10 years from now will be different. The types of skills we will need will be different. And I'd like to make sure that as we think about … the recruitment and talent pipeline for government,' he said. Kupor wouldn't reveal which AI companies he was most keen on using in the US government, as it's an ongoing conversation with his team. Advertisement Other government agencies have also been using AI to be more cost-efficient, especially after the Trump administration came out with policies eliminating barriers for agencies to use the technology. The Department of Veterans Affairs uses the tech to standardize care, while the Department of Justice uses it to analyze the drug market, according to a White House readout published in April. 3 Kupor said OPM will work with DOGE as much as it benefits the agency. United States Office of Personnel Management Kupor said he hopes that the OPM mindset of government efficiency transcends to other federal agencies, and that the Department of Government Efficiency was the 'catalyst' for some of the movements towards downsizing. 'To the extent that they're helpful in like the overall goals and objectives we have, then we're happy to partner with people, but we're going to ultimately make the decisions that we think are in the best interests of OPM,' Kupor said of the agency working with DOGE after Elon Musk's departure. On AI, he said he wants 'to change the mindset here' and 'we'll see if other people across the government agree where we ought to be willing to experiment with some things in a contained area with contained risk.'

Ex-SMBC Nikko Managers Face Verdicts in Market Manipulation Case
Five former executives at Japanese brokerage SMBC Nikko Securities Inc. are about to hear verdicts in a long-running stock market manipulation case, marking the culmination of a scandal that rocked Japan's financial industry.

Prosecutors are seeking multi-year prison terms for their alleged role in trying to support stock prices ahead of so-called block trades. The five defendants have denied wrongdoing.
