Remarkable how Trump dealt himself the worst possible hand to negotiate w/ China. 1st card: Enacted tariffs that threaten to tank the economy 2nd: Backs China into a corner. 3rd: Makes fed incapable of responding 4th: Tanks markets, bonds and the dollar 5th: no end game, no plan

Very proud that my wife, Martina, has been appointed to be Director of the ESRI. My father, Chris, worked at the ESRI for almost all his career. He passed away in 2022 but I know he would have been incredibly proud as would my mother, Yvonne, who we lost in January.

The first official sign that Trump is already slowing the global economy: OECD has just downgraded both the US and global growth forecasts - and raised its inflation forecasts - for 2025 and 2026. Org primarily blames rising uncertainty and trade wars.

Rubio's gutting of USAID is illegal and unconstitutional. There is no form of democracy anywhere of any kind that would allow the executive branch to unilaterally cancel budgets and programs passed by the legislative branch and signed into law. It's utter lawlessness.

From AEI: âDespite Trumpâs aggressive resort to tariffs, our trade deficit will widen under his watch as it did in his first term. It will do so because tariffs are being accompanied by a far-reaching program of tax cuts that will increase the budget deficit andâŠreduce our countryâs savings levelâ
