The U.S. Is Not "Winning the Trade War"
Unilaterally raising costs for Americans can harm people in the rest of the world, but not much more than any other policy that reduces the purchasing power of the U.S. private sector.

The best overview so far.
Hopes that Trump's tariff plan might end the uncertainty that has been hanging over the global economy since Inauguration Day are for the birds. His plan is so half-baked that no one knows whether the next move in tariffs is up or down. He has at a stroke destroyed the credibility of US policymaking

It’s 9am TFT time here, and citizens are already gathering to protest Tariffs by the United States. Our plain clothes Officer Penguins are attempting to maintain calm, but unfortunately we keep losing them in the crowd.

Great chart in this terrific piece on how Russia's hand entering into negotiations isn't as strong as Putin would have you think.
Russia's main territorial gains were all at the start of the war, and have since come at enormous cost.
