As Chief Justice John Roberts administered an oath of “impartial justice” to senators, the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office said President Donald Trump broke the law when he withheld U.S. aid to Ukraine. Meanwhile, an indicted associate of Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani forked over fresh evidence implicating the president in Giuliani’s efforts to pressure Kyiv for political help. What’s unique about these proceedings? The trial is not only occurring during an election year — raising the stakes for both parties — but four of the senators acting as jurors are running for president. SOURCES: [AP]( / [NYT]( 2 [US Reveals Troops Hurt in Iran Attacks]( Defense Department officials said yesterday that 11 American troops were being screened for traumatic brain injuries after the Jan. 8 missile strikes by Iran on two military bases in Iraq. At the time, the Pentagon revealed only that there weren’t any deaths. Meanwhile, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei led Friday prayers in Tehran for the first time in years as public anger mounts over the country’s downing of a Ukrainian airliner last week. Where is the U.S.-Iran conflict heading? According to [OZY columnist and former CIA Deputy Director John McLaughlin](, the absence of channels for de-escalation means a “volatile stalemate” marked by low-level violence is likely.

But it’s not all bad news: Fourth-quarter growth remained steady from the previous three months, while industrial output, investment and retail sales all ticked up in December. What’s next? To prevent a further slowdown, and to hit the Communist Party’s target of becoming a “moderately prosperous” nation, officials will likely continue with a delicate stimulus policy.

Mathews, a former military reservist, had been under investigation for his links to white supremacists when he reportedly slipped into Minnesota last August to train Base members. How lethal is the group? The Base, the English translation of al-Qaida, is [an international terror cell]( linked to several murders in the U.S., and the FBI says it has evidence of the group plotting terror attacks online.

Ride the Rails]( It may not have the same prestige as it used to, but railway work is a good bet for young Americans looking for steady employment with great benefits, [OZY reports](. While union membership is dropping across other industries, decent health coverage and other perks can still be found working on U.S. train and subway systems. In fact, 81 percent of workers are unionized thanks to decades of hard-fought battles. What kind of opportunities are available?

That includes all emissions from the company’s energy use and its supply chain going back to 1975. But Microsoft, which went carbon neutral in 2012, says that ambitious goal will require new technologies. That’s why it launched a $1 billion Climate Innovation Fund. Why does it matter?

Still, the country’s overall population bumped up to 1.4 billion, according to the National Bureau of Statistics, and 64 percent are within the working age range of 16 to 59. Are these numbers reliable? Some experts say China’s birth statistics are “very sloppy and [highly influenced by politics](,” noting discrepancies in local reporting as officials manipulate data to meet targets. SOURCES: [SCMP]( 4 [French Director Charged With Underage Assault]( Christophe Ruggia was indicted Thursday on charges of sexually assaulting French actress Adèle Haenel when she was a minor. Haenel, now 31, filed a formal complaint against the 55-year-old director in November, accusing him of touching and kissing her while filming The Devils in 2002, beginning when she was just 12. Ruggia initially denied the allegations but has since asked Haenel for forgiveness. What’s the bigger picture?
