Luke Fountain reveals Trump's trade chief just revealed major cash gains after leaving big law. U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer's 2025 disclosure shows $1.17 million to $3.75 million in assets, including a sharp rise in bank holdings and $652,610 from King & Spalding. An unreported $10,000 honorarium from Coupang in 2024, followed by a trade meeting in 2025, raises ethics questions. This highlights how private-sector pay can follow officials into public roles, showing strong disclosure rules matter, yet gray areas remain. Read the full story for the complete financial picture. Kudos to Luke Fountain for this thorough reporting.

Global trade tensions surge! Jamieson Greer and the US Trade Representative's office report only Mexico and Argentina supported America's push to address industrial overcapacity at the recent G20 meeting in Milwaukee. This defiance from the vast majority of nations follows the Trump administration's tariffs on 59 countries and the EU, highlighting deep global divisions on trade policy. Protectionist actions risk isolating the U.S. and hindering international cooperation on critical economic issues. Discover why many G20 nations rejected the US stance.

Kevin Breuninger reports Trump's latest global tariffs are already facing a major court showdown. President Trump's near-global tariff policy, affecting 86 countries, is challenged in federal court by small businesses and Democratic-led states. Plaintiffs argue the forced-labor justification is a pretext to revive a previously struck-down tariff regime, citing lack of required country-specific findings. This case highlights tensions between executive trade power and legal limits. Read the full story to understand this critical legal battle. Breuninger delivers a sharp and timely analysis of this critical legal battle. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/09/30/trump-tariffs-trade-lawsuit.html #TrumpTariffs #TradePolicy #USCourts

Michael Wayland reports that the looming meeting between President Trump and President Xi Jinping has ignited a firestorm of concern regarding Chinese vehicles flooding American roads. As U.S. automakers and dozens of lawmakers urge for maintained restrictions, experts warn that an influx of subsidized competitors could devastate domestic manufacturing sectors. Protecting our industrial base is essential for economic security rather than a partisan issue. Read the full analysis at https://www.cnbc.com/2026/09/23/trump-xi-chinese-automakers-us-access.html.

Paul Krugman explores why President Trump's tariffs, despite avoiding recession and failing to revive manufacturing as predicted, ultimately raised import prices and garnered little political support beyond his core base. This surprising outcome highlights the limitations of protectionism in delivering broad economic or electoral gains. The analysis offers key insights into trade policy challenges. Readers can explore the full piece at the link below. Paul Krugman delivers another thoughtful breakdown worth considering. https://paulkrugman.substack.com/p/why-does-everyone-hate-trumps-tariffs #Economics #TradePolicy #USPolitics

Michael Wayland reports on a bold move by the auto industry to protect American manufacturing from unfair competition. Leaders of six major trade groups, including those representing domestic firms and Tesla, signed a letter urging President Trump to maintain strict barriers against Chinese automakers entering the U.S. market. This unified stance highlights critical concerns regarding national security and the economic impact of heavily subsidized imports. Protecting local production remains vital for long-term stability.
