A third of the pledged delegates in the Democratic primary are up for grabs Tuesday as candidates are beginning to end their campaigns with polling showing what appears to be a two-man race .

Step into the best raincoats and spring jackets of the season with these recommendations:
1. Columbia Arcadia
While Columbia has always been a popular brand, recent years have seen more celebrity endorsements like Macklemore, who have kept the brands staying-power where it needs to be.

2. The North Face Woodmont
What do Kendall Jenner and Emily Ratajkowski have in common? They’re always wearing the North Face. Therefore it should come as no surprise that the North Face Women’s Woodmont Rain Jacket is a hot seller.
Easily the most celeb-endorsed jacket on this list, most often people don’t need to be paid to be ambassadors of this brand due to its cultural significance. However, the stylish jacket will keep you dry with a DryVent 2L shell, and an attached & adjustable draw-cord hood.
The North Face is built for durability, and they entrust that with a lifetime warranty to the original buyer.
3. Lululemon Into the Drizzle
Leave it to Lulu to have such a unique name, but this coat is essentially runway ready and because of that, comes at a bit of a higher price point.
You might spot Jessica Alba in her Lululemon jacket, but if you’re looking for something more heavy duty the Into the Drizzle Raincoat will protect you from more than drizzle, ironically.
It’s sneaky with it’s hidden waist cord, and additional zippered chest and back vents. You’ll need those if it gets a bit humid when the rain is heavy.
So, don’t get caught in the rain…or do, because then people will see you wearing this jacket.
4. Daxven’s Active Windbreaker
This affordable rain jacket has become Amazon’s Choice this season sporting features like a detachable hood and sleeve snaps, to ensure the water stays out when necessary, but also can morph into a less bulky piece when required.
Its trench coat style may appear heavy but it’s actually rather lightweight, even with the ability to snap the sleeves in place if you decide it’s too hot and roll them up.
This jacket can really morph into several variations of itself, which is remarkable given how low its price is.
5. Cole Haan Packable Hooded Rain Jacket
Cole Haan is one of those brands that is incredibly upscale, but provides different versions just in case you aren’t Prince Harry (and we know you are not).
The removeable hood and bowtie detail are rather unique, as are the slightly-off color choices.
While you might expect this coat to send you into overdraft, it’s actually quite affordable. It has a very ‘city girl’ vibe with origins of nearly 100 years ago in Manhattan. So, expect to turn some heads because this jacket pulls together most outfits, but it’s less practical than the other items on this list.
For most active wearers, all of these items should keep you dry while running errands and performing other duties. But, you’ll have to choose which style is best for you.
In the end isn’t that the most fun part, though?

thedailycaller--2020-03-02--Huawei Places A Wedge In The US’s Relationship With Britain

Prime Minister Boris Johnson and President Donald Trump may appear to share many similarities .
The two world leaders are bombastic populists who ’ ve made promises to drain the swamps of the Beltway and Brussels , respectively , and echo each other in sentiment and style .
But the largest wedge between the two is currently Huawei , the multi-national Chinese technology company that will have a role in building Britain ’ s 5G mobile network .
The decision Johnson ’ s government made in early February to move forward with Huawei ’ s development made Trump livid , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ intelligence accusations that Huawei is a security risk and aids Chinese intelligence in stealing secrets .
Before the decision was made to collaborate with Huawei , American officials like Secretary of State Mike Pompeo made the U.S. position clear on the subject , reiterating the concern that the use of Huawei ’ s 5G gear could compromise the relationship between the U.S. and U.K. in regards to intelligence sharing .

While Huawei denies the accusations that the company is spying on behalf of the Chinese government , experts remain skeptical , alleging that Huawei could provide back donors for the Chinese government into American networks and that Huawei would not be able to resist any orders made by the Chinese Communist Party , CNBC reported .
“ There is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the [ People ’ s Republic of China ] Government or the Chinese Communist Party to do its bidding in any context , commercial or otherwise , ” Jerome Cohen , a New York University law professor and Council on Foreign Relations adjunct senior fellow , told CNBC .
“ Huawei would have to turn over all requested data and perform whatever other surveillance activities are required.

The Pentagon also banned Huawei from selling phones at U.S. military bases in 2018 .
( RELATED : Why Refusing To Do Business With Huawei Makes Sense ) Trump ’ s focus on China as a universal threat in an economic and militaristic sense has especially cast Britain ’ s decision to work with Huawei as one that is antithetical to the best interest of not only the U.S. , but that of the U.S. and British relationship .
Senior White @ @ @ @ @ @ @ British of the threat Huawei poses .
Weeks after the decision , an American delegation led by acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney met with the prime minister ’ s chief aide Dominic Cummings and were unimpressed with his attempts to persuade the delegation to work together on developing alternatives to Huawei , according to the Guardian .
The night before the meeting , Mulvaney told an audience of students at the Oxford Union that there could be a “ direct and dramatic impact ” on intelligence sharing between the two countries following @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Guardian reported .
Some senior Tories have sought to identify trusted vendors as alternatives .
Iain Duncan Smith expressed in a letter to fellow Tory MPs that high-risk vendors should be ruled out , highlighting data privacy concerns , according to the Guardian .
The rollout of Huawei in Britain could also strain the relationship among the Five Eyes alliance — the five English-speaking countries that have an agreement to share security information , and that includes Australia , Canada , New Zealand , the U.S. and the U.K. Australia and New @ @ @ @ @ @ @ alliance ’ s eyes are now on Britain , which could influence other countries to follow lead and also work with Huawei , the BBC reported .
“ Our view of Huawei has been that putting it in your system creates real risk , ” Pompeo remarked in late January according to the Department of State .
“ This is an extension – an extension of the Chinese Communist Party with a legal requirement to hand over information to the Chinese Communist Party .

Prime Minister Boris Johnson and President Donald Trump may appear to share many similarities. The two world leaders are bombastic populists who’ve made promises to drain the swamps of the Beltway and Brussels, respectively, and echo each other in sentiment and style.

thedailycaller--2020-03-02--7 Things Tom Steyer Could Have Done With The $250 Million He Wasted On His Failed Campaign

California businessman and environmentalist Tom Steyer ended his presidential campaign Saturday night following a third place finish in South Carolina ’ s Democratic primary .
Steyer launched a long-shot campaign in July , becoming one of 29 Democrats to run for president , of which five remain .
Over the course of his nearly eight months in the race , Steyer spent over $ 250 million of his own money , according to Open Secrets .
In other words , Steyer spent roughly 1/6th of his net worth to earn zero delegates .
Steyer has been criticized for spending hundreds @ @ @ @ @ @ @ effort to win the presidency .
“ A lot of Democrats feel as though it ’ s time for Steyer to get out , ” Democratic operative Karen Finney told NBC News .
“ There ’ s a real frustration that his money could be spent helping us win because it ’ s pretty obvious to most people that there ’ s just not a path for him .
And Democrats are becoming increasingly anxious that it ’ s time to start coalescing.
” Former aid to Democratic New York Sen. Chuck Schumer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ told the Daily Caller last week that Steyer ’ s campaign was an “ ego trip , ” echoing criticisms from other liberals that the California billionaire was engaged in a vanity campaign .
So , what else could Steyer have spent his money on ?
School Lunch Debt : While there are varying statistics about school lunch debt , 75 % of American school districts reported lunch debt last year , according to CNN .
The average median lunch debt for a school district in the U.S. is $ 2,500 , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as $ 856,000 .
Steyer could have paid off all that debt , dozens of times over , but decided to run for president instead .
( RELATED : Colleges And Universities Are Creating A Lost Generation Of Americans ) The WNBA : Steyer could have bought the entire WNBA for the money he spent on his campaign .
The WNBA generates roughly $ 60 million a year , and Steyer spent that more than four times over in his failed presidential bid .
( RELATED : Democrats Unanimous As House Passes Bill @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In Girls ’ Sports ) McDonalds : Steyer could have bough a lot of fast food for the money he spent on his campaign .
The average price of a McDonald ’ s Big Mac in the U.S. is $ 3.99 , which means Steyer could have bought more than 62 million big macs with the money he spent on his campaign .
62 million big macs or zero delegates .
Which would you rather have ?
The National Endowment Of The Arts : The National Endowment of the Arts ( NEA ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ years .
The NEA has been a lightning rod for conservative criticism , and its funding has been targeted in several of President Donald Trump ’ s budget proposals .
Liberals frequently defend the NEA ’ s funding against proposed budget cuts , arguing that its important for the federal government to fund arts programs and scholarships .
However , the federal government wouldn ’ t need to fund the NEA if liberal billionaires like Steyer stepped up to the plate instead .
The NEA could be fully funded with just 60 % @ @ @ @ @ @ @ zero delegates in the Democratic primary .
( National Endowment For Arts And Humanities Gives Millions To Universities ) Medical Bills : The average American spends more than $ 10,000 a year on health care , which means that Steyer could have paid off the medical bills of more than 24,000 Americans with the money he spent on his long-shot campaign .
Steyer ’ s campaign website stated that “ Every American has the Right to Health Care , ” and that “ costs are simply too high , ” but it ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s campaign benefited those struggling to pay their medical bills .
The money he spent to fund his campaign sure would have , though .
( RELATED : Latest Budget Deal A Tough Pill To Swallow For Conservatives ) Houses : The median house in the U.S. costs $ 226,800 , according to Business Insider .
This means Steyer could have bought more than 1,100 houses with the money he spent to earn a total of zero delegates in the Democratic primary .
The un-sheltered homeless population in the U.S. is roughly 200,000 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s home state of California .
More than 150,000 of America ’ s homeless reside in California , and Steyer could have sheltered many of them with the money he spent on his presidential bid .
Other Candidates : Finally , if Steyer wanted to fund a presidential campaign , he could have funded one that actually had a chance to win .
The Democratic establishment has been fretting about stopping Independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders , and Steyer ’ s funds would have greatly benefited another candidate , such as former @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s candidacy also likely prevented Biden from finishing with over 50 % of the vote Saturday in South Carolina .
Biden won with a whopping 48.4 % of the vote , but Steyer finished third with over 11 % of the vote .
Steyer ’ s candidacy probably cost Biden a few delegates Saturday night .

California businessman and environmentalist Tom Steyer ended his presidential campaign Saturday night following a third place finish in South Carolina’s Democratic primary.
