Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin agreed that Russia would supply diesel to the United States and global markets.

The US Treasury temporarily authorized sales of Russian diesel despite existing sanctions, through April 7, 2027.

Trump announced an initial 300,000 tonnes, followed by 500,000 tonnes in November and more later, with the total amount depending partly on Russian refinery capacity.

He said the deal would help lower fuel prices, which have risen sharply during the war involving Iran.

A new AP-NORC poll found most Americans think Trump is profiting from the presidency in unethical or illegal ways.

About 6 in 10 U.S. adults said he is either profiting illegally or acting unethically without breaking the law.

The poll also found that many believe Trump is more focused on personal wealth than helping the country since returning to the White House.

The findings come as his family's businesses have expanded in real estate and entered cryptocurrency ventures.

Researchers say muscle and liver cells can retain signs of past exercise even after someone stops training.

In studies using mice, animals that exercised, took a break and trained again grew larger muscles than mice with no training history.

Their muscle cells also matched energy production to demand more effectively, and this ability remained during inactivity.

The researchers say liver cells also store exercise memories and release enzymes that help supply fuel to working muscles.
