I don't consider myself an expert, but certainly seems to be a test of NATO's limits, and/or effort to reframe the war more broadly at home in Russia.

1. More Americans work at the Cheesecake Factory than in the entire coal industry, and that won't change. It's because of automation, not snooty libs.

2. Coal energy is now more expensive than wind and solar.

3. So this means: higher energy prices, more pollution, no jobs benefit. Genius!

I so wish this would happen. At a minimum, can states start taxing based on weight and height of vehicles? User fees that reflect actual costs. Maybe that would help deter while national policies get worked through

This is an INSANE decision by the E.U.

“By signing up to mutual recognition of vehicle standards with the U.S., the E.U. has waved the white flag on road safety. This is not a technical detail – it is a political choice that puts trade convenience ahead of saving lives.”

This will kill people.

Were people expects to be a “quick fix”? There are no quick fixes people!

Biden bears the bulk of the blame.

EU member states need to face the fact that further integration is needed in this increasingly hostile and competitive international environment. The EU focus on "simplifying" legislation is just rearranging the furniture while major renovations are needed. Let's hope leadership asserts itself.

What opponents of the EU-US trade deal get wrong Internal reform matters more than external trade

Have to agree with this. Rather than focusing on what America is doing wrong, the EU should look closer to home. Member states are stymieing reform... Almost a year since the Draghi report, barely any of its recommendations have been acted on. www.economist.com/leaders/2025...

The EU still treats US demands as a trade matter. But Maga aren't really interested in trade. They see trade as a coercive weapon to win an ultraconservative and libertarian insurgency against the EU and the Brussels Effect. Hence Trump's repeated bad faith. Where does it end, Ursula?
