  1. Without starting a new topic, I suppose this is the best place for this info. Everything you wanted to know (and probably way more) about trade deficits and what they actually mean about our economy. Here's the summary from the end of the piece (titled "Things Everyone Should Know About Trade Deficits"): So, trade deficits don’t hurt jobs or growth, aren’t trade or economic scoreboards (especially bilateral ones), and can’t be fixed by things like tariffs or subsidies. They’re not a drag on growth, and they don’t represent lost American wealth or a debt we must repay. Trade balances can tell us stuff about an economy—but much less about a nation’s trade policy and much more about its citizens spending and saving, as well as the economic and noneconomic forces affecting those millions of individual decisions. In the United States, much of the stuff our trade deficit reflects isn’t a problem and, in the case of our attractiveness as a global investment destination or the U.S. dollar’s importance in international commerce, is decidedly a good thing. And outside of a recession or the world ditching the dollar, government efforts to shrink the trade deficit will fail unless they fundamentally change Americans’ savings and investment decisions or unless Washington finally gets its fiscal house in order. Indeed, if policymakers and wonks—despite all the above—still feel compelled to reduce the U.S. trade deficit, eliminating our bloated federal deficits would be the most straightforward and benign way to do it. Funny how none of the trade deficit worriers ever mention that.
  2. Some options White House reporter Jennifer Jacobs said are still available: impose sanctions on all Russian banks, sanctions on Chinese banks that are working with Russia, and additional oil sanctions
  3. The constant whipsaw is so exhausting, but we seem to be on the positive side of it for now. Trump threatens new sanctions and tariffs on Russia to force peace talks https://www.axios.com/2025/03/07/trump-tariffs-russia-ukraine-war-cease-fire-deal
  4. Some info here I haven't seen elsewhere https://kyivindependent.com/ukraine-war-latest-ukraine-us-delegations-to-meet-next-week-zelensky-announces/
  5. We should have a good idea about how this is all going to go by early next week. Will Europe stand up or lie down like the US?
  6. This is what happens when honor and dishonor personified meet.
  7. My first loss ever.
  8. The center right seems poised to form a government in Germany. The far right AfD also received a significant boost in support, but fortunately the center right (and pretty much everyone else) refuses to work with AfD. The most relevant quote for Ukraine from the Kyiv Independent article referencing Merz, likely the new German chancellor: https://kyivindependent.com/cdu-wins-german-election-friedrich-merz-raises-nato-concerns/
