Trump’s Dilemma: A Trade War That Threatens Every Other Negotiation With China President Trump is staking everything on winning by imposing tariffs on China. But the fight threatens to choke off negotiations about other issues like Taiwan, fentanyl, TikTok and more.

Law Firm Bends in Face of Trump Demands Paul, Weiss — one of three law firms targeted by President Trump as part of his retribution campaign — said it resolved the conflict by agreeing to a range of commitments.

This is one of the saddest capitulations I have ever seen. A law firm honored for its bravery has more than bent the knee and kissed the ring: it has paid the ransom demanded by Trump.

Chinese Companies Use Legal Threats to Halt Foreign Research Think tanks and universities have helped expose problematic Chinese business practices. Now, those businesses are accusing them of defamation.

It's unfortunate that Georgetown U is only willing to stand by Anna Puglisi AFTER she made it public. Pusillanimous university leaders across the world who bow to money right and left is why academic freedom is in jeopardy. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/11/t...

After backing Trump, low-income voters hope he doesn’t slash their benefits Voters in the struggling Pennsylvania city of New Castle backed Donald Trump hoping he’d curb inflation. But he’ll be under pressure to cut federal spending.

Probably just a coincidence, but everyone described or photographed in this WaPo story (about low-income voters who are sure Trump doesn't mean taking benefits away from *them*) appears to be white.

Very unlikely. Wolf warrior statements are a convenient, low-cost way to demonstrate loyalty.
