Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded econ.st/3YbbFjq

Donald Trump has replaced the old certainties that underpinned the world economy with extraordinary levels of volatility and confusion.

Unfortunately, I don't expect "our bad" to be forthcoming.

Brent Neiman says it all.
Trump admin used the results from his paper to justify tariff rates. Except they used the completely wrong number.

On a Sunday show, Howard Lutnick insisted that the tariffs are about national security and bringing back manufacturing, although the administration froze the Inflation Reduction Act funding for the manufacturing Pres. Biden brought to the U.S., overwhelmingly in Republican-dominated districts. SMH

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said today that Trump’s tariffs are “highly likely” to increase inflation and risk throwing people out of work. Economists at JPMorgan now place the odds of global recession at 60% unless the tariffs are ended. I’m tired of all this winning, you?

“Never before has an hour of Presidential rhetoric cost so many people so much,” former treasury secretary Lawrence Summers posted. “The best estimate of the loss from tariff policy is now [close] to $30 trillion or $300,000 per family of four.”

and another super strong opinion by Judge Howell denying Gov's motion to recuse and really calling them out for their false and nasty criticism of her. Very good day from the courts, who are holding steady so far, which is a big and important development.
