| Trump's Apple ache Posted: 14 Jan 2020 06:52 PM PST QuickTake Tonight | Greetings, QuickTake readers! In this edition: Disney+ dominates rivals, Grindr gets a Norwegian call-out, and Spike Lee picks up a history-making gig.  Apple, U.S. reignite privacy fight President Trump called on Apple to "step up to the plate" Tuesday, suggesting the company unlock iPhones used by the Florida naval base shooter last month, in return for helping Apple "all of the time on trade." His tweet followed AG William Barr's assertion Monday that Apple hadn't given any "substantive assistance" to the FBI — a claim the company countered, saying it had turned over "gigabytes" of data from cloud-based backups of the devices. Apple has long-refused to help authorities unlock iPhones, while also improving the device's encryption, arguing "there is no such thing as a backdoor just for the good guys." More: - The U.S. government doesn't need Apple to break into the phones and could instead use third-party tools to analyze their contents.
- In 2016, Apple refused to unlock an iPhone belonging to the San Bernardino shooter by building a software backdoor, which Tim Cook called the "software equivalent of cancer."
$ignificant figures 41 million. How many times Disney+ has been downloaded since its release two months ago, generating almost $100 million and far outpacing rival streaming services. 304. The number of human rights activists killed in 2019, mostly in Latin America, while defending indigenous land, LGBTQ+ rights and free speech, a report said. 40. How many adults and children were treated for skin irritation after a Delta jet dumped fuel over a California elementary school while making an emergency return to LAX. Highly quotable "The entire world will be watching." Iran's President Hassan Rouhani said several people were arrested over the Jan. 8 downing of a Ukrainian jet and vowed a full investigation of the disaster. "Insane violation of EU privacy rights." Grindr is sharing users' data, including age, gender, location and sexual orientation, with thousands of ad partners, a Norwegian study found. "Idiots." What a Boeing employee called Lion Air officials when they asked for 737 Max simulator training a year before 189 people died when one plunged into the Java Sea. This is not normal Out of breath. Tennis players were forced off the court during qualifying matches at the Australian Open hours after Melbourne's air quality dipped to "hazardous levels" due to smoke from the catastrophic bushfires.  The future is now High-tech feat. A paralyzed man in South Carolina set a world record for the fastest marathon time in an exoskeleton suit when he finished the 2020 Charleston Marathon in 33 hours, 50 minutes and 23 seconds.  What's good "Shocked, happy and proud." Filmmaker Spike Lee was named jury president for the 73rd Cannes Film Festival, overseeing its official selection in May, making him the first-ever black person to hold the post.

| BREAKING NEWS: House Dems release new impeachment evidence related to indicted Giuliani associate Posted: 14 Jan 2020 02:52 PM PST The House Intelligence Committee released new evidence related to the impeachment inquiry of President Donald Trump, including information turned over by Lev Parnas, an indicted former associate of Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani. The material also includes a previously undisclosed May 2019 letter from Giuliani to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. In the letter, Giuliani asked for a meeting with Zelensky as the former New York City mayor was pursuing investigations targeting former Vice President Joe Biden. The transmission, which reflects the unfinished nature of the House's impeachment inquiry, comes ahead of an expected House vote on Wednesday to formally send the impeachment articles to the Senate for a trial.

| BlackRock will be your climate leader now Posted: 14 Jan 2020 02:11 PM PST Bloomberg Opinion Today Follow Us   | | This is Bloomberg Opinion Today, a bombe Alaska of Bloomberg Opinion's opinions. Sign up here. Today's Agenda  Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock, and now in charge of climate because nobody else is doing it. Photographer: Bloomberg/Bloomberg A Tale of Two Climate Letters With Australia just always on fire now and the oceans hotter than ever in recorded history, the world is overdue for climate leadership. For now we'll have to settle for getting it from somebody most people have never heard of — though he happens to have $7 trillion of our money. Larry Fink is the founder of BlackRock Inc., the world's biggest money manager. In an annual letter to CEOs, he bemoaned climate change and listed ways his company planned to respond, including banishing coal investments from its actively managed portfolios. The "actively" part is the rub here: Most of what BlackRock manages is passive money, notes Mark Gilbert. It invests in funds that blindly mirror indexes, which could include coal miners, oil drillers and other climate menaces. Still, BlackRock has enough influence to push for, say, better governance at America's energy firms, writes Liam Denning. That could help curb some of their less-climate-friendly practices. More broadly, even if only at the margins, somebody with $7 trillion to invest can over time bend corporate behavior and investor preferences to its will, writes Matt Levine. Fink's epiphany followed months of hounding by climate protesters. Compare and contrast his reaction to that of Siemens CEO Joe Kaeser. He has also drawn public ire, for his company's investment in a coal project — in Australia; which, as we mentioned, is always on fire now. Rather than seeing the light, Kaeser wrote an epic, anguished letter explaining why it must go ahead, no matter how terribly he and various koalas might feel about it. But the project is bad from a business sense and just bad optics, writes David Fickling. A better leader would have recognized that. We might not need to care so much about what Larry Fink or Joe Kaeser do about climate change if our politicians did more. Though its contribution to global emissions is relatively small and shrinking, the U.S. can still boost its moral leadership and persuade other countries to follow, writes Noah Smith. Shutting down coal plants, upgrading the power grid, seeding the country with car-charging stations, making industry and buildings more energy-efficient: All would go further than even the most strongly worded letter. Boeing Keeps Hitting Itself Running Boeing Co. can't be easy. You've got to get the 737 Max back in the air. You've got to deal with daily info-dumps of embarrassing material; the latest batch shows employees mocking Indonesia's Lion Air for wanting more 737 Max training, just before the deadly Lion Air crash in 2018. But new Boeing CEO David Calhoun, crowned yesterday, will have plenty of cash incentives, notes Brooke Sutherland. Far too many incentives, in fact: Not only will he get a $1.4 million salary and long-term, just-because bonuses of $7 million and $10 million in stock, he'll also get $7 million if he hits certain milestones this year, such as getting the 737 Max flying again. He'll even get a (smaller) bonus if he fails to get the Max back in the air this year. Given the importance of the Max to Boeing's future, you'd think it would be the main part of Calhoun's job, requiring no bonus. As Brooke puts it, "a mechanism already exists that compensates executives for doing what's expected of them in their job. It's called a salary." Dangling a huge bonus just gives Calhoun even more incentive to hurry the Max back into service as quickly as possible. It certainly sends a terrible signal, especially when you remember Calhoun has been on Boeing's board for this whole debacle. Read the whole thing. Soleimani's Killing: The Memos In the days since killing top Iranian commander Qassem Soleimani, Trump and his deputies have struggled to stick to a rationale. One story was that it was to stop an "imminent" threat to American lives, but there's been no evidence of that, and occasionally they've tossed the whole "imminent" thing. Memos written by an adviser to former Trump national security chief John Bolton suggest the administration considered killing Soleimani for months, writes Eli Lake, who got the memos from a source. Those documents suggest it was part of a broader plan by some administration officials to disrupt Iran's regime. It may be working. Telltale Charts JPMorgan Chase & Co. just turned in the best quarter ever for an American bank. The problem, Brian Chappatta notes, is what it does for an encore.  Investment banking is a rapidly shrinking industry — except in China, where American banks are bulking up, notes Nisha Gopalan. Need a job? Maybe brush up on your Mandarin.

| Larry Ellison loves Tesla Posted: 14 Jan 2020 01:46 PM PST Evening Briefing | As Tesla shorts continue to cook, it seems Oracle Chairman Larry Ellison's faith in his friend Elon Musk has paid off, earning him a cool $600 million. Before joining Tesla's board in late 2018, Ellison bought 3 million shares of the electric-vehicle maker worth $1 billion; now they're worth more than $1.6 billion, thanks to a 25% surge this year. —David E. Rovella Here are today's top stories The Trump administration plans to restrict the media's ability to prepare advance stories on market-moving economic data, possibly creating an opportunity for high-speed traders to get the numbers first and profit off the information, raising questions about fairness in the financial markets. Boeing employees called Lion Air officials "idiots" when the Indonesian carrier asked for simulator training in Boeing's new 737 Max. The U.S. company persuaded the airline that it wasn't necessary. The next year, 189 people died when a Lion Air 737 Max plunged into the Java Sea. Existing tariffs on billions of dollars of Chinese goods coming into the U.S. are likely to stay in place until after this year's presidential election. Investors expected the biggest bond-trading desks to bounce back from 2018's disastrous end. The two top banks more than delivered. But while the glasses clink on the trading floor, American workers continue to suffer. As Tyler Cowen notes in Bloomberg Opinion, real wages in America are barely better than they were in the 1970s. There are now four Republican senators who want a vote on whether new evidence and testimony should be heard at President Donald Trump's coming impeachment trial over his attempt to have Ukraine interfere in the 2020 election campaign. Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren wants to ease federal student loan debt by executive order, a policy aimed at attracting young voters as Senator Bernie Sanders tops a pre-Iowa poll. What's Joe Weisenthal thinking about? The Bloomberg news director said that the skyrocketing stock market seems designed to punish the prudent, inflicting pain on anyone who is still playing it safe.

| Oscars so yikes Posted: 14 Jan 2020 05:13 AM PST An important Democratic debate, Apple won't unlock a shooter's phone, the Queen will let Harry and Meghan move  THE BIG STORY
What to watch for in the last Democratic presidential debate before people start voting Tonight's debate will be the smallest stage we've seen so far, featuring only Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Pete Buttigieg, Amy Klobuchar, and Tom Steyer. Andrew Yang just missed qualifying. Cory Booker just dropped out.
Here's why the debate is a big deal: it's the last big, scheduled moment before people actually start voting in the Democratic presidential primaries – Iowa votes in just a few weeks.
Some of the big themes to look for:
👉Sanders vs. Warren. The two senators have had something of a truce, but that seems to be ending dramatically. First, volunteers for Sanders reportedly had a script to tell voters Warren is "bringing no new bases" into the party. Then a bigger story: Warren said Sanders told her in a private meeting in 2018 that he did not believe a woman could win the presidency in 2020. He denied making the comment.
👉Buttigieg vs. Biden. Buttigieg's candidacy, like that of many others, has always appeared to hinge on Biden slipping. Both candidates are pushing a more centrist politics and they appeal to similar sets of voters. Can Buttigieg upstage Biden?
👉The unity candidate. All candidates will be making the pitch that they'll be able to bring all the Democratic voters home, in ways the other candidates can't.
Here's everything else to look for in tonight's debate.

Mitt's great power comes with great responsibility. In today's episode: Mitt Romney is cast as the great hope to show Trump doesn't completely own the Republicans. Does that check out? Listen and subscribe. STAYING ON TOP OF THIS The deadly Pensacola military base shooting was an act of terrorism, the attorney general says
Attorney General William Barr said the shooting at the Naval Air Base in Pensacola, Florida that left three sailors dead was an act of terrorism.
The man who opened fire, Mohammed Alshamrani, a second lieutenant in the Royal Saudi Air Force, had expressed anti-American and anti-Israeli views on social media, hours before the Dec. 6 attack, Barr said.
Alshamrani was one of several Saudi Arabian citizens training at the base, a practice that has operated between the two allies for years.
Barr said investigating the shooting revealed more than a dozen other Saudi Arabian students at the base held anti-US or jihadist views.
The attorney general asked Apple to unlock two phones belonging to the gunman, who died in a shootout with security officers. The company said it is helping in the investigation, but it will not unlock the shooter's phones.
BY ROYAL DECREE The Queen announced she will let Prince Harry and Meghan Markle live in Canada
After a dramatic week, the Queen said she and the royal family are "entirely supportive" of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's decision to step back from public life. In a statement, she said she gave her permission for the couple to split their time between Canada and the UK.
Harry and Meghan's announcement last week was reportedly made without consulting the rest of the royal family, and since the announcement, reports have flowed in of tensions inside the family.
Several UK newspaper outlets have published articles based on a story in the Times of London hinting at claims of bullying between Prince William and Prince Harry. The two brothers released a joint statement calling the story "offensive and harmful."
If you're looking to understand why Harry and Meghan might want to step back from public life, we put together these headlines that compare the UK media's coverage of Kate Middleton and Meghan.
DREAM ACHIEVED This man has become the first person with HIV to fly a commercial plane Two years ago, James Bushe told us he had been blocked from accepting his place on a pilot training course because of Britain's Civil Aviation Authority's interpretation of the rules concerning HIV-positive applicants — as laid down by its European regulator — forbade it.
After year of fighting with the CAA successfully overturning a policy widely regarded as discriminatory — and nearly two years of intense training, Bushe, 31, became the first person with HIV to gain a commercial pilot's license and fly a commercial flight.

| News Alert: France, Britain and Germany launch process to hold Iran accountable for violating nuclear deal, opening way for sanctions Posted: 14 Jan 2020 03:36 AM PST By activating the 2015 nuclear deal's dispute resolution mechanism, the European nations are indicating they reject Iran's withdrawal from the restrictions on its nuclear program. Following the U.S. withdrawal from the agreement and reimposition of sanctions, Iran has gradually reduced its compliance.

| The ultimate proxy conflict Posted: 14 Jan 2020 03:29 AM PST Balance of Power | | From  | | | | | Once again, a U.S.-backed toppling of a longstanding dictator has led to a power vacuum and widespread violence that's been exploited by a revolving door of militant groups. The scenario that unfolded in Iraq after the 2003 U.S. invasion is replaying in Libya, where warring factions are battling for control of the capital, Tripoli. The conflict has killed more than 2,000 people, forced tens of thousands to flee and opened up the oil-rich country to traffickers of African migrants to Europe. It's been a mess since NATO helped oust dictator Moammar Qaddafi in 2011. The latest attempt to secure a negotiated end to the war — by Russia and Turkey, which back opposing sides — failed when military commander Khalifa Haftar left Moscow yesterday without signing a deal. It comes at a delicate moment for mainly Muslim areas of north and west Africa. Fighters allied to Islamic State and al-Qaeda are moving through Libya to carry out attacks in a wide area. French and UN forces have been unable to stem the tide. With anti-French sentiment growing, President Emmanuel Macron yesterday coaxed West African leaders into publicly backing his nation's intervention. But as long as the fighting in Libya continues, militants there can use it as a staging post to spread violence across ever greater swathes of Africa. — Karl Maier |  | | A woman uses a shoe to beat against a photo of Haftar during a demonstration in Tripoli. Read more here on how the battle for Libya has left the country in perpetual turmoil. | | Photographer: Mahmud Turkia//AFP | | | Global Headlines | | Iowa debate | The stage will be smaller, the spotlight brighter and the stakes higher for the seventh Democratic presidential debate tonight in Des Moines — the last before the Iowa caucuses next month. Six candidates — Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, Pete Buttigieg, Tom Steyer and Amy Klobuchar — will gather for a televised event that comes amid growing rifts between and within the party's moderate and progressive flanks. - Cory Booker announced yesterday he was ending his campaign, vowing in a text message to supporters to "never abandon my faith in what we can accomplish when we join together."
Making nice | Donald Trump's administration has lifted its designation of China as a currency cheat, saying the nation has made "enforceable commitments" not to devalue the yuan and has agreed to publish exchange-rate information. It follows a bruising three years of tit-for-tat tariffs and comes as the U.S. and China are set to sign a phase-one trade agreement tomorrow that's expected to include a commitment from Beijing to respect American intellectual property.
Trial prep | With his impeachment trial expected to begin next week, Trump has yet to settle on either his defense strategy or the team that will represent him in the Senate. The president has sent conflicting signals about key aspects of the trial, including how long it should last and whether witnesses should testify, Jordan Fabian and Josh Wingrove report. The House is likely to vote tomorrow on impeachment managers named by Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
Huawei decision | Prime Minister Boris Johnson hinted his government will let Chinese tech giant Huawei supply some equipment for the U.K.'s 5G broadband networks, even in the face of strong pressure for a ban from the U.S. While Washington says intelligence-sharing could be at risk, British officials argue there's nothing the U.S. knows about the company that Britain does not. Despite Trump's backlisting, Huawei broke into the top 10 recipients of U.S. patents last year, helping propel China to the fourth spot.
Rivals circling | Angela Merkel is batting away the next generation of German conservatives as they vie for the spotlight toward the end of her long chancellorship. But despite speculation she might be forced out early — this time by Markus Soeder, the head of her Bavarian sister party — Merkel is holding firm, and recent polls suggest she's still the most popular politician after 14 years in power, Patrick Donahue and Arne Delfs report.
What to Watch
- Iran has arrested a number of people allegedly linked to the Jan. 8 downing of a Ukrainian passenger jet, and the country's president called on the judiciary to form a special court and fully investigate the disaster.
- Johnson faces his first battle of Brexit's next stage, after the European Commission warned that a trade deal this year must include a fisheries accord.
- The European Union's new trade chief, Phil Hogan, will be in Washington for the next three days and is due to meet U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and other officials amid frayed ties.

And finally ... The former chairman of one of China's bad banks has confessed to taking millions of yuan in bribes which he kept in metal cabinets in a Beijing apartment he nicknamed "the supermarket." Such revelations are becoming more commonplace as President Xi tightens his grip on power, broadening his seven-year corruption crackdown into the nation's boardrooms.

| World Alert: Iran announces arrests over its downing of a Ukrainian passenger plane by an antiaircraft missile Posted: 14 Jan 2020 01:00 AM PST Judiciary spokesman Gholamhossein Esmaili said the arrests of "some individuals" took place after extensive investigations, but he gave no further details. The announcement came after President Hassan Rouhani called for a special court to be set up to probe the downing of the airline and the killing of all 176 aboard, by Iran's elite Revolutionary Guard.                      |
