Clausing, Grinberg, and Kysar bring a significant amount of international tax experience to the Treasury
In-house tax directors at large multinational companies and their advisors are expecting revisions to certain measures under the TCJA, including increasing the corporate tax rate and global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI) rate, following key appointments to the US Treasury. Faster developments on pillar one and two at the OECD are also expected.
Former IMF director David Lipton will serve as a senior counsel to Yellen on tax policy, according to reports from Reuters. Alongside Lipton’s appointment on February 2, Deputy Assistant Secretaries Kimberly Clausing, Itai Grinberg, and Tom West, as well as Counsel to the Assistant Secretary Rebecca Kysar, were selected by the Biden administration to direct and shape domestic and international tax policy at the Treasury.

The undermanned Blazers dispatched the Washington Wizards with relative, but not complete, ease. Facing the Philadelphia 76ers is a whole other task. Doc Rivers has transformed Philadelphia into a force to be reckoned with, holding the first seed in the east and a 10-1 record at Wells Fargo Arena. The odds are against Portland, especially if more players are sidelined Anfernee Simons being plagued by a tweaked hamstring and Damian Lillard is just generally banged up.

The selection of the former England Under-20s team-mates on opposing sides provides a delightful subplot to the Six Nations opener and the two rookies have been cast in key roles.
Lawrence makes his first championship start and also his first appearance at inside centre for England as Eddie Jones, the head coach, once again tweaks his midfield as the search continues to find his best balance in the continued absence of Manu Tuilagi.
Redpath, son of former Scotland captain Bryan, will make his Scottish debut just a month after declaring for the land of his father despite having represented England at both Under-18s and Under-20s.

In the summer of 2019, Liberty Ballers drafted ten teams of five players to come up with the top 50 players in the NBA for the upcoming 2019-20 season. While all top-50 lists are arbitrary, by having writers draft players they want on their teams, we hoped to give more context to the issue of ranking star players on bad teams versus elite role players. We also acknowledged drawbacks to this method, most significantly the fact that teams’ previous picks influence later suggestions. Still, it was a unique look at the league’s top players.
