Officials in South Korea say they've reached a trade agreement with the Trump administration. While U.S. trade deals typically try to lower trade barriers, this one actually creates new ones.

The U.S. announced Monday the expulsion of dozens of Russian diplomats in response to the alleged poisoning of an ex-Russian double agent in the U.K., but President Trump's response has been muted.

The president signed a spending bill Friday that, among other things, safeguards workers' tips. It blocks an earlier Trump administration move that may have allowed restaurant owners to pocket them.

Hours earlier, the president had hinted at vetoing the legislation but relented, citing "national security." The threat added suspense to what otherwise would have been a perfunctory signing ceremony.

John Bolton is replacing H.R. McMaster as national security adviser. He's a veteran of multiple Republican administrations and is known for his hawkish foreign policy views.

Trump tweeted that CIA Director Mike Pompeo will take over for Rex Tillerson, who has had a strained relationship with the president. Undersecretary of State Steve Goldstein was also fired.

President Trump's school safety agenda encourages states to adopt "risk protection orders." These allow law enforcement to temporarily seize guns from people judged dangerous to themselves or others.

The White House is endorsing a plan that would allow teachers and other school employees to be armed. It does not call for higher age limits for would-be gun buyers.

A summit with Kim Jong Un also brings with it high risk. As both leaders prepare for the meeting, many are wondering what Trump will bring to the table and what the next steps will be.

President Trump's order includes exceptions for Canada and Mexico for the time being. The plan has prompted fears of a trade war, and GOP leaders have spoken out against it.
