THINGS TRUMP'S GOT YOU SAYING

North KoreaThe Story
Yesterday, President Trump RSVP'd

'yes'  to a meeting invite from North Korea leader Kim Jong Un.
Wait, back up.
For years, North Korea has been

building up its nuclear program . And freaking out countries in the process. This week, South Korean officials met with their neighbors to talk peace. And it seems the two countries have made some diplomatic headway. 
I'm listening.
Earlier this week, the South said that Kim wants to meet up with the US to chat. And that he might be down to give up his nuke program - if he gets things like normal diplomatic ties and security guarantees. Big deal since Kim's been low-key obsessed with testing out his arsenal. The White House says Trump's on board for the talks - which are supposed to go down by May.

If this happens, it'll be the first time a sitting US president has met with a North Korea leader. Ever.

their trade agreement.  And the rest of the world has the option to pick up the phone and negotiate their way out of this. A big change from the 'no exception rule' Trump talked about when these were first announced. The tariffs go into effect in 15 days.
What are people saying?

This tariff idea was a bold move that PO'd the international community and fellow Republicans. TBD if they turn into a trade war or a useful negotiation tactic.

$52 billion  to buy Express Scripts. This deal would combine one of the country's biggest health insurance companies with the country's biggest pharmacy benefit manager. Aka a company that negotiates drug prices for insurers and employers. But it's not the first deal of its kind (looking at you,

a pay bump.  You read that right. They're signing a petition to make the gov take the cash money from their raises and put it toward things like paying nurses more and get patients more access to certain services. It may or may not be the most Canadian thing ever.

Central African Republic. Yesterday, Doctors Without Borders said that 
http://click.morning7.theskimm.com/?qs=2da103df7c53c936fb1113235259b7a7c84769fa8a78bfdd19cfb3b2e6f81b7f5e458e48365edc35459aafc8ae2d76c4c2ba18f03ce58154 
hundreds of women  have been treated as rape victims in the country since the beginning of the year. Central African Republic has been unstable for years. In 2013, a mostly Muslim rebel group ousted the president. Ever since, those rebels have been fighting against mostly Christian militia groups. Cue chaos. The UN sent in thousands of peacekeepers but that hasn't fixed the problem. Now, Doctors Without Borders is saying a group of women were attacked by militia fighters last month. But didn't specify which militia group was behind this. Some women reportedly waited weeks to get treatment because they were afraid of the rape stigma in their communities. Unclear when the violence will stop.

most restrictive abortion bill  in the country. The state's law already bans abortions after 20 weeks into a pregnancy. This new law cuts that down to 15. It doesn't apply to women whose health is at risk or if the babies couldn't survive out of the womb at full-term. But the bill would apply to women who are raped. The governor said he wants to make his state "the safest place" for unborn babies. He's expected to sign off on this next week.

SKIMM MD: REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH

We've spent this week Skimm'ng some areas of

women's reproductive health . Stay tuned for more on things like mental health and breast health later this year. Yesterday, we got into

what it's like having a baby . Today, we're in

recovery mode . Here are some things to know...

Parental leave: First things first. There are different norms all around the world.

Here's your Skimm. 

The swelling: You might've just pushed a body out of your body. There could be swelling and soreness. Maybe stitches. It takes weeks to physically recover from childbirth.

The bleeding: Your body's getting rid of excess blood and tissue from the uterus. You might have trouble peeing. And leak a bit when you cough or laugh. Fun.

The baby blues: This is pretty common in the days after birth. Your hormones are on a rollercoaster and you're tired AF. It should go away in a week or two. If it's more extreme it might be postpartum depression. This is more common than you think - more than half of Skimm'rs say they know someone who has gone through postpartum.

There's more Skimm...
