USA Reaches Women's Ice Hockey Final as Trump Slams California Governor Over Green Energy Deal

The US women's ice hockey team is one step closer to Olympic gold after a dominant 5-0 victory over Sweden in the semi-finals on Monday. The team, which is being hailed as one of the best ever assembled, will face either Switzerland or Canada in the final on Thursday.

The Americans' victory was a far cry from their shocking loss to Sweden 20 years ago, when the Swedish team stunned them in a shootout in Torino. This time around, there was no such upset, with the US team brushing aside their opponents with ease.

"We're exactly where we expected to be," said US coach [Coach's Name]. "We've worked hard all season, and we're ready for whatever comes next."

Meanwhile, back in the US, President Trump is embroiled in a war of words with California Governor Gavin Newsom over a new green energy deal with the UK. The deal, which aims to scale up green technologies and strengthen ties between the two countries, has sparked a furious response from the President.

"The UK's got enough trouble without getting involved with Gavin Newscum," Trump said in an interview with Politico. "Gavin is a loser. Everything he's touched turns to garbage. His state has gone to hell, and his environmental work is a disaster."

Newsom, who is seen as a likely future Democratic presidential candidate, has been a vocal critic of Trump's environmental policies. The governor has been a strong advocate for renewable energy and has implemented a number of initiatives aimed at reducing California's carbon footprint.

The green energy deal with the UK is just the latest example of Newsom's commitment to environmental issues. The deal aims to promote the development and deployment of clean energy technologies, including solar, wind, and hydrogen power.

"This deal is a major step forward for our state and our country," Newsom said in a statement. "We're proud to be working with the UK to drive innovation and reduce our reliance on fossil fuels."

The deal has been welcomed by environmental groups, who see it as an important step towards reducing carbon emissions and mitigating the impacts of climate change.

"This deal is a win-win for both countries," said [Environmental Group Spokesperson]. "It will help to drive innovation, create jobs, and reduce our reliance on fossil fuels. We applaud Governor Newsom and the UK government for their leadership on this issue."

As the US women's ice hockey team prepares for their final showdown, the war of words between Trump and Newsom continues to escalate. But for now, the focus is on the ice, where the Americans are looking to bring home their seventh Olympic gold medal.

The final is set to take place on Thursday, with the US team facing off against either Switzerland or Canada. The Canadians, who have won four of the last five Olympic gold medals, will be looking to continue their dominance in the sport. But the US team is confident that they have what it takes to bring home the gold.

"We're ready for whatever comes next," said US forward [Player's Name]. "We've worked hard all season, and we're excited to see what the final brings."
