Bottom Line Up Front
Today’s verdict: Argentina’s quarter-final lands tomorrow in Kansas City, the region’s last stand at the World Cup, as Colombia’s broken handover escalates into a legal fight and the outgoing government files a criminal complaint against a member of the incoming team.
Argentina’s quarter-final tomorrow. The region’s last team face Switzerland in Kansas City on Saturday at 9pm Eastern. France beat Morocco to reach a third straight semi-final.
Colombia’s handover turns legal. The outgoing government filed a criminal complaint against a member of the incoming transition team and asked the public prosecutor to supervise. Joint sessions are suspended.
The tax reform still stands. Despite the rupture, the outgoing government plans to file its tax reform on July 20. That bill, not the political fight, is what touches foreigners’ finances.
