While President Donald Trump sends his lawyers hither-and-yon to try to overturn the election, President-elect Joe Biden has been busy filling Cabinet slots. HuffPost reports Biden named John Kerry on Monday as his special envoy on climate. He's tasked the former secretary of state with steering a 180-degree turn in US diplomacy on the issue. Kerry will also be advising the incoming Biden administration on the security challenges a warming planet poses. America will soon have a government that treats the climate crisis as the urgent national security threat it is. Kerry will represent the US at a moment that scholars increasingly see as a period of American imperial decline amid unprecedented planetary changes.
Mutual funds and exchange-traded funds, or ETFs, are valuable parts of a long-term investment stock portfolio. Managed by professionals, they allow you to buy into companies and securities that you may not have been able to on your own. But while both mutual funds and ETFs are considered low-cost investment products, they do cost money. So before you sign up for any of them, the most important thing to look at is the expense ratio--an umbrella term that covers all sorts of costs and fees. It's usually a percentage of the annual net assets in the fund and is deducted directly from the fund's gross assets. Even a small difference in a fund's expense ratios can result in significantly more fees paid or saved over time. For example, take $20,000 invested for twenty years at a 5% rate of annual, compounded growth. A fund with an expense ratio of 0.25% would return $50,595 at the end of twenty years. But a fund with an expense ratio of 1% would return just $43,822!

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the overwhelming favorite in her reelection race in New York's 14th Congressional district. Her Republican opponent, John Cummings has still raised $9.6 million — seemingly a sign of how keen conservatives are to challenge her. "I guarantee you 75% of his contributors don't know anything about him," a Republican strategist told The New York Times. More then $30 million has flowed into the campaign, most of it going to Ocasio-Cortez and Cummings.
