route in response. The U.S. military struck targets along Iran's coast. The renewed fighting is jeopardizing the already tenuous ceasefire. Dominic Tierney is a professor at Swarthmore
College. He says reaching a peace deal is always difficult.
Arguably, the single most difficult task that an American President can face is extricating the U.S. from one of these failed wars. The U.S. was negotiating for two years to get out of the Korean War. It took five years to negotiate a way out of the Vietnam War. We spent three months in Vietnam, just negotiating the shape of the table around which we would negotiate. And, similarly, it took years to get out of Afghanistan. So,

Some researchers say they're devastated by the Trump administration's recent changes to enforcement of the Endangered Species Act. This comes after the administration finalized to rule Friday that eliminates a major protection for wildlife against logging, oil drilling and other activities. KQVD's Lashmysera reports from Berkeley. The change to the Endangered Species Act allows for development on wildlife habitats,

His lab studies the Endangered Devils Hole Pub Fish, found in Death Valley National Park in California and Nevada.
