Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Corva Coleman. President Trump leaves this afternoon for the World Economic Forum in Switzerland. The overriding topic is expected to be Greenland.
Chapter 2: What are President Trump's plans for the World Economic Forum?
Trump is demanding control of Greenland for national security reasons. Now he's threatening to impose initial 10 percent tariffs on eight NATO countries if they don't back his efforts. NPR's Eleanor Beardsley reports.
European Parliament member Bernard Guetta says Trump's inflammatory threat to slap tariffs on any country that tries to stop him from taking Greenland went too far.
All the countries and all the political forces were so shocked, deeply shocked by this incredible attitude.
Actually, Mr. Trump is making the European unity much stronger every day.
Guetta says Europe has been taking it from the Trump administration because it can't afford to lose U.S. support on Ukraine, but there are limits. He says the EU is ready to apply counter-sanctions and more. Eleanor Beardsley, NPR News, Paris.
President Trump is expected to say more this week about his plans for reducing home prices. It could include banning corporate landlords from buying more single-family homes. NPR's Jennifer Ludden reports the idea is popular, but it's proven difficult to pass such laws.
One cap on investor landlords did just take effect in Fishers, Indiana. Mayor Scott Fadness says the idea is to protect local homeownership.
It's been a source of generational wealth in our country, particularly in the middle class, and I hate to see that go away.
But in state after state, such proposals have failed. Economist Lori Goodman at the Urban Institute says the main driver of high prices is a housing shortage, and some investors are actually helping that by building homes to rent out.

There's a lot of things to worry about when it comes to AI and medicine. privacy, accuracy, misinformation, but there's also a lot to be optimistic about, says Dr. Robert Watcher at the University of California, San Francisco, like that AI can quickly read lengthy patient history.
So the idea that I, in the two minutes I have before I see you, I'm going to read 600 pages and not miss anything is ludicrous. And so we, part of the reason I'm now pretty optimistic about AI in healthcare is the problems we're trying to solve are absolutely unsolvable with if all we can count on is humans.
