The Trump administration is now threatening Europe for … enforcing its own tech laws. Apparently, if the EU fines Elon Musk, the U.S. responds like a mob boss. Totally normal stuff.

Context you rarely hear: global stocks are up about 30% over the past year. U.S. stocks? Around 18%. That means American investors underperformed the world by about 12 percentage points, even while headlines called it a “fantastic year.”

⚡ Zelenskyy: China shows no readiness to join peace efforts.

Instead of pressuring Russia, China has increased imports of Russian energy — money that Moscow then uses to fund its war against Ukraine, the president said.
