@daveweigel @RichardRubinDC We are discoursing! https://t.co/trExwPN2eC

[Alex Plitsas 🇺🇸 @alexplitsas]

Iran’s position and unwillingness to give in to U.S. policy red lines on the nuclear issues is a reflection of the fact Tehran believes that’s it’s winning and can wait the U.S. out.

We won’t see a change in behavior until we see a change in perception.

Some sources like below now reporting that the (US strike) that hit the house in Baghdad took out Kata'ib Hizballah Secretary General Hamidawi, but I have yet to see official statement from KH. I have also heard separately that Hamidawi might have been injured and taken to the hospital.

This would be the most significant persona strike taken by the US in Iraq since Qasem Soleimani.

Just a few of the countries which could see tariff rates drop (at least temporarily) from 15% - 10%. Others like Brazil are at higher rates and stand to benefit. 301s etc will come into play to replace over time.

At a recent #ACFrontPage conversation, @USTradeRep Jamieson Greer outlined the administration’s backup plan if the Supreme Court struck down Trump’s tariffs.

Worth watching to learn what may happen next:

This is a very thoughtful exchange between @JasonMBrodsky and @citrinowicz on the options, opportunities, uncertainties, and risks of military strikes on Iran.

Joined @CNN from the corner of a busy room in Davos - where tension is high ahead of Trump's arrival. It's the most significant US-Europe division of his presidency and very few clear off ramps.

Sad day. It ain't what it used to be, but pour one out for the P-G and the people of Pittsburgh. I learned the building blocks of journalism here from @lbeththomas and too many more to name. The newspaper industry is brutal. https://t.co/sLrkN79RvY

🚨 Gold has officially crossed $4,000/oz for the first time ever.

🪙 This historic moment is not only about markets but also about geopolitics and de-dollarization.

Here’s a quick🧵on why this matters

“Two years since the initial trauma of the October 7 massacre, Israel is, in many ways, back living on October 6,” @ACMideast’s @ShalomLipner tells us in today’s edition of our #ACIntel Newsletter.

I am very concerned that Hamas may use the lack of precision in what they’ve agreed to maintain some level of control and try to reign without ruling directly, @rfpalestine’s @afalkhatib tells @CNN’s @jaketapper.

[Atlantic Council @AtlanticCouncil]

“Europe got a really good deal in this trade deal—I know that’s not the popular opinion here,” @USAmbEU @AndyPuzder tells @FredKempe at the Transatlantic Forum on Geoeconomics.

“President @realDonaldTrump got a great deal for the United States,” he adds.

An important point about the Trump tariff appeals court decision today—and you can find all the background you need here: https://t.co/Mx2XrtOPCX

[Josh Lipsky @joshualipsky]

Considering the decision was 7-4 on tariffs and that Trump has back-ups like section 338 (see our tariff tracker legal section for details) I would not take too much comfort in this if you’re a country looking for lower US tariffs in the future.

At 72, Putin has no plans of stepping down.

But he is replacing other key figures with a younger generation, writes @zygaro in the latest @ACEurasia 🇷🇺 #RussiaTomorrow report.

Meet the next generation of Kremlin leaders. 🧵
