Posted: 07 Nov 2018 02:15 PM PST

Against the backdrop of a strong economy, Republicans avoided blowout losses in the key US midterm vote but President Trump's economic agenda will be sharply curtailed by Democratic gains. With a divided Congress starting next year, and the 2020 race for the White House now under way, the polarization in Washington means major economic legislation is highly unlikely, analysts said following Tuesday's nationwide elections. Despite the prospect of partisan deadlock in the new Congress, Wall Street rallied Wednesday as investors put the elections' uncertainty behind them.

Best gifts for your girlfriend: Gift ideas for your number one girl

Posted: 06 Nov 2018 02:00 AM PST

Getting your girlfriend a gift that she really loves is an awesome feeling. (Nothing like seeing your girl's face light up when she finds out what you got her, amirite?) But the process of figuring out what gift to get can be a tricky one. You want to end up with a gift that shows your girlfriend how much you care. Duh. But there are *so* many factors that go into picking the right gift, which can sometimes get overwhelming. For example, the length of time you've been together is definitely going to play a role in what gift you get (you don't want to go with something too fancy for someone you've only been seeing a few weeks, but you'll probably want to step it up for someone you've been seeing for a long time.) There's also the originality factor. You want to avoid getting her something generic, but you also want to make sure you get her something she actually likes. (Just because she's a cat person does not mean she wants that cat onesie you saw online. Or maybe she does — in that case, go here.) Don't fret. To make your decision process a *whole* lot easier, we've compiled a list of the best gifts for girlfriends that are sure to help you nail the gifting game no matter what.

Sri Lanka has suffered a 'coup without guns': parliament speaker

Posted: 06 Nov 2018 06:49 AM PST

The Trump administration is seeking the conservative-leaning Supreme Court's endorsement to kill the "Dreamers" program, which protects about 1.8 million undocumented immigrants who arrived in the United States as children. Late Monday the Justice Department announced it was bypassing regional appellate benches and going straight to the high court to gain support for its effort to end the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. Solicitor General Noel Francisco said injunctions by three lower courts have prevented the administration from ending the program, which the Trump administration says has only encouraged people to try to enter the United States illegally.
