- (ASSOCIATED PRESS) — The U.S. and Canada have ramped up their trade war, hitting each other with steep new tit-for-tat tariffs. Despite the bravado coming from both sides of the border, though, analysts suspect the longtime allies will eventually strike a deal to end a conflict neither really wants.
The prospects for compromise looked bleak Tuesday, with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney reacting to new 50% U.S. tariffs on certain Canadian goods by responding in kind on about $20 billion worth of American imports, including steel, dairy products, appliances and farm equipment.
“You’re at war when you get attacked. We got attacked,’' Carney, who came to power last year on the promise that he’d stand up to U.S. President Donald Trump, said over the weekend.
Doug Ford, Ontario’s populist premier, told The Associated Press on Monday that he was ready to escalate even further by cutting off his province’s shipments of electricity ...

- A Houston County judge denied bond for the teenager accused of shooting a person at Warner Robins high school this month, pointing to previous cases of bringing fake weapons to school and finding he's a risk to re-offend.
The hearing also revealed that 14-year-old Denzelle Willis allegedly shot his friend during the bathroom argument, according to Houston County District Attorney Eric Edwards.
"He's a danger to every young person in this community doing the right thing by going to school, learning, making something of themselves in a place where parents trust that where they'd learn in a safe environment and not having the threat of firearms going off in the bathroom," Edwards said.
The shooting happened on Aug. 12, when a fight between a group of boys erupted into violence. Prosecutors say Willis opened fire, then fled the school.. Officers found him hiding in a children's slide.

- (ASSOCIATED PRESS) — U.S. Sen. Darline Graham won the Republican nomination to replace her late brother on South Carolina’s general election ballot, notching another win for President Donald Trump after he threw his support behind the political novice.
Graham defeated U.S. Rep. Ralph Norman in Tuesday’s special Republican primary runoff, two weeks after they were the top two finishers in a 10-way primary.
Despite being a political unknown, Graham bested some of South Carolina’s top political names in the special election spun up after Lindsey Graham’s sudden death last month. She was appointed by Gov. Henry McMaster to serve out the remaining months of her late brother’s current term and swiftly won an endorsement from Trump, who encouraged her to enter the race for a full term and campaigned for her in the state last week.
Graham got emotional while addressing her supporters Tuesday night, saying she misses her brother every day...

- (ASSOCIATED PRESS) — Canada has pledged to roll out “dollar-for-dollar” countertariffs on scores of U.S. goods next month in response to President Donald Trump’s latest import taxes, which have plunged the North American neighbors deeper into a bitter trade war.
Ottawa released a list of more than 700 targets Tuesday. Starting Sept. 8, Canada’s government says it will impose steeper import taxes on goods ranging from fish and cheese to smartphones and steel imported from the United States.
Canada said it was focusing its retaliation on products “most affected by U.S. tariffs.” The levies will be set at 15%, 25% or 50% — rates that the government said would match U.S. tariffs on goods targeted in Washington’s latest round as well as products covered by previously imposed sectoral duties.
Tuesday’s announcement came just days after the Trump administration’s 50% tariffs on roughly $20 billion of Canadian goods, ranging fr...
