President Donald Trump said Sunday the United States is “low keying” its approach to Iran, signaling he is prepared for now to let mounting economic pressure squeeze Tehran rather than launch another major military offensive. “We are low keying it,” Trump said in a brief phone interview with Axios. “We are only semi-negotiating with them.

In a landmark decision made last year, the UK Supreme Court ruled that categories such as women refer to biology, not gender, when concerned with matters of the law, meaning that biological males who identified as women could not claim the special benefits society denotes specifically to biological women. As a result of the ruling, public-facing institutions, including government branches…
