In Part One, Javers introduces readers to the new, conservative economic populism gaining ground among Republicans close to former President Donald Trump. Senator Republican Marco Rubio gives a speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Orlando, Florida, February 25, 2022. Cass counts among his allies several well respected conservative economic thinkers. "It's economic policy that emerges not from good economics, but from politics and the culture war and what your base wants," he said.

Shares in the merged company could begin publicly trading this week under the ticker symbol DJT, Trump's initials.

They met in the 1990s, at an event about the North American Free Trade Agreement, where they were the only people arguing against it. He was a conservative trade lawyer who filed anti-dumping cases on behalf of American steel companies and predicted that the treaty would hurt American jobs. Her worry was that NAFTA’s rules would hurt working people and override U.S. legal standards on food safety and the environment. She hailed from Wausau, Wis., where her family had run a scrapyard. After that first meeting, they kept in touch, swapping notes on how to throw sand in the gears of a free trade machine that seemed unstoppable.

After serving in the Trump administration for four years, former Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin is keeping his distance from the Republican former president and his campaign, according to people familiar with the matter. "Mnuchin has not been in the room," said Stephen Moore, a conservative economist who is advising Trump. A person close to Mnuchin who was granted anonymity in order to recount private conversations, said Mnuchin supports Trump's 2024 run for president. In 2016, Mnuchin was Trump's national finance chairman during his first run for the White House. For now, Mnuchin's private equity firm, Liberty Strategic Capital, takes up most of his time, people close to the former secretary told CNBC.

Republicans for a Carbon Tax
  + stars: | 2023-11-20 | by ( The Editorial Board | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Images: Reuters/Zuma Press Composite: Mark KellyToo many Republicans these days have lost their economic bearings. Look no further than a GOP Senate bill that would enact a carbon tariff—i.e., a new tax. The Foreign Pollution Fee Act, sponsored by Louisiana’s Bill Cassidy and South Carolina’s Lindsey Graham , could well have been written by the Sierra Club and AFL-CIO. Among the carbon tariff’s biggest advocates is Donald Trump’s former trade adviser Robert Lighthizer , who favors tariffs in principle. So it’s worth deconstructing the misleading arguments that Mr. Cassidy and others are making for climate protectionism.

„Reglementarea Comisiei Europene prin care sunt majorate tarifele asupra exporturilor SUA în spaţiul UE la nivelul de patru miliarde de dolari va fi publicată în Jurnalul Oficial al Uniunii Europene. Organizaţia Mondială a Comerţului a acordat permisiunea formală pe 26 octombrie ca UE să impună măsuri de retorsiune împotriva subvenţiilor acordate ilegal de SUA companiei Boeing. Drepturile de sancţionare primite de UE, în cuantum de 3,99 de miliarde de dolari, sunt mai reduse decât suma de 7,5 miliarde de dolari primită de Statele Unite anul trecut într-un caz separat, intentat împotriva subvenţiilor Airbus, şi mai puţin decât solicitase Bruxellesul, 8,58 miliarde de dolari. După câteva luni, UE a ripostat prin propriul proces, acuzând că Boeing a primit ilegal subvenţii de 23 de miliarde de dolari. Vezi și aceste știri UE a decis blocarea conturilor bancare şi confiscarea unor bunuri ale lui Aleksandr Lukaşenko și ale fiului său Numărul zborurilor din țările UE a scăzut cu 70% în luna octombrie: „Acum, cifrele sunt dramatice” Parlamentul UE cere ca SUA să elimine vizele pentru toți cetățenii europeni
