***This episode is not edited as it was recorded directly after Donald Trump's speech***Donald Trump went on primetime television to tell the country that America's elections are compromised. A few hours earlier, Stephen Miller gave a much quieter speech at the State Department that was far more alarming. While Trump ranted about voter fraud, voting machines, China, mail ballots and election “security,” Miller laid out a federal counterterrorism strategy aimed directly at the political left.In this episode, Robin breaks down both speeches, what NSPM-7 actually does, and why the administration's plan for the 2026 midterms goes far beyond campaign messaging. The language is already in place: disrupt, identify, defund, debank, arrest and prosecute.Trump's address got the live blogs, cable coverage and instant fact-checks. He repeated unsupported claims about noncitizen voters, Chinese interference, stolen voter data and compromised election machines. He also announced plans to involve federal agencies in state election systems, remove people from voter rolls and investigate officials tied to the alleged fraud.But while everyone was watching Trump, Stephen Miller was explaining what comes next.Speaking to foreign security officials at a State Department ministerial, Miller described the political left as a terrorism threat and defended NSPM-7, a national security directive that gives federal agencies a broad mandate to target organizations, activists and financial networks.And the scope does not stop with people accused of violence. It can reach donors, organizers, lawyers, bail funds, nonprofits and anyone the administration decides is supporting the wrong movement.The speech also went somewhere even darker. Miller attacked civil liberties, complained about juries refusing to convict people accused of assaulting ICE agents, and told the room that leftists do not look “normal” because their appearance reflects what is supposedly inside them.That language is not random. Robin traces its historical roots and explains why authoritarian movements so often describe political opponents as diseased, deformed, dangerous or visibly different. Once the enemy is defined by who they are instead of what they have done, there is no way to behave your way out of the category.Trump provides the spectacle. Miller provides the machinery and framework for what's to come. Together, the two speeches point toward a broader strategy for the 2026 midterms:• Destroy confidence in election results before voting begins• Push federal agencies deeper into state election systems• Purge voter rolls in the name of election security• Threaten media outlets that refuse to cooperate• Treat protest networks and organizers as terrorism infrastructure• Intimidate donors, lawyers, nonprofits and bail funds• Use financial pressure and debanking without waiting for criminal convictions• Export the framework through international intelligence sharingThis episode separates what the administration has actually done from what it has merely claimed.The franework is real. The evidence being used to justify it often is not.Trump's speech was the distraction. Stephen Miller's speech was the blueprint.The loud speech told America what to fear. The quiet speech explained what the government plans to do about it.Topics include Donald Trump, Stephen Miller, NSPM-7, the 2026 midterm elections, voter purges, election security, left-wing terrorism, debanking, civil liberties, ICE protests, jury trials, political repression, authoritarianism, fascism, voter fraud claims, media license threats and federal intervention in state elections.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-unfiltered-political-analysis--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilRobin's Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/robin_wstdTwitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.TikTok: tiktok.com/@wesawthedevilpolitics

Le esportazioni della Cina hanno raggiunto a giugno il valore record di 412,39 miliardi di dollari, con una crescita del 27% rispetto allo stesso mese del 2025. Lo riferiscono i dati diffusi dall Amministrazione generale delle Dogane. L aumento è nettamente superiore alle attese degli analisti, che prevedevano un incremento del 18,2%, e rappresenta l espansione più sostenuta da febbraio. Nei primi sei mesi dell anno le esportazioni cinesi hanno raggiunto complessivamente 2.120 miliardi di dollari, in crescita del 17,6% rispetto allo stesso periodo del 2025. La Cina ha registrato anche un surplus commerciale record di 125,62 miliardi di dollari, in aumento rispetto ai 113,89 miliardi dello stesso mese del 2025 e anche in questo caso oltre le attese degli analisti, ferme a 121 miliardi. Lo rendono noto i dati diffusi oggi dall Amministrazione generale delle Dogane. Sempre secondo i dati ufficiali dell Amministrazione generale delle dogane, il mese scorso le esportazioni cinesi verso gli Stati Uniti sono aumentate del 13,9% su base annua. Le esportazioni verso gli Usa hanno raggiunto i 43,5 miliardi di dollari, portando il surplus commerciale della Cina con gli Stati Uniti a 28,9 miliardi di dollari. Ne abbiamo parlato con Giuliano Noci, Prorettore del Polo territoriale cinese del Politecnico di Milano. Dal 2011 è dell'Ateneo milanese.Trump su Hormuz: «Vogliamo rimborsi»Il presidente ha anche annunciato che gli Stati Uniti introdurranno un pedaggio del 20% sulle navi cargo che passeranno dallo Stretto, come compensazione per il ruolo americano di garante della sicurezza nell'area. Secondo Trump, Hormuz "è aperto e resterà aperto, con o senza l'Iran" e Washington manterrà operativa la rotta come un "Guardiano dello Stretto". Va ricordato che non esistevano problemi di sicurezza a Hormuz prima che gli Stati Uniti attaccassero l Iran, senza capire che il regime di Teheran avrebbe reagito bloccando lo Stretto. Da allora sono passati oltre cinque mesi e l amministrazione Trump si è rivelata incapace di allentare la presa di Teheran su quel braccio di mare strategico per il petrolio: il Pentagono avrebbe i mezzi, ovvio; ma solo con un operazione navale e di terra così rischiosa, in termini di vite di soldati americani, che la Casa Bianca non osa. Di conseguenza, l Iran capisce che può usare il controllo e possibili pedaggi sul transito da Hormuz come leva per imporre il suo predominio sull area. Del resto l amministrazione americana stessa ha accettato una formula ambigua, nel Memorandum d intesa con Teheran in giugno, che non chiude a questa possibilità. Approfondiamo il tema con Stefano Zunarelli, docente di diritto della navigazione presso l Università di Bologna e titolare dello Studio Legale Zunarelli, studio specializzato da oltre 30 anni in diritto della navigazione, dei trasporti e commerciale.Euro digitale: Bce seleziona 36 provider per progetto pilota, otto italianiLa Banca centrale europea ha selezionato 36 banche e payment service provider per il progetto pilota dell euro digitale che partirà nella seconda metà del 2027 e durerà 12 mesi.

Bei den Allergen-Grenzwerten ist weiterhin viel in Bewegung – oder werden es am Ende doch nur Orientierungswerte? Arno Langbehn spricht in dieser Folge mit Jürgen Schlösser (Lebensmitteltechnologe, Schloesser Consult, Gründungsmitglied des Runden Tisches Allergenmanagement) über den Stand der Codex-Alimentarius-Arbeiten zur Allergenspuren-Deklaration, über die quantitative Spurenberechnung und über die noch immer uneinheitlichen Grenzwerte in der EU. Denn solange Tschechien, die Niederlande, Spanien oder England unterschiedliche Regeln anwenden, wird jede mehrsprachige Verpackung zum Risiko – bis hin zum öffentlichen Rückruf. Für alle, die in Qualitätssicherung, Produktentwicklung und Export tätig sind, gibt Jürgen Schlösser eine Einschätzung, was bis zur erwarteten Harmonisierung gilt und warum ein Leitfaden zur Risikobewertung nach HACCP-Vorbild dringend nötig wäre. Die wichtigsten Themen dieser Folge: Codex-Arbeiten seit 2019: Warum die Expertengruppe seit sieben Jahren an Regeln für die Allergenspuren-Deklaration arbeitet und nun in die Schlussphase geht. Grenzwerte oder Orientierungswerte: Der Vorschlag, aus starren Grenzwerten Orientierungswerte zu machen – und bei Überschreitung statt eines öffentlichen Rückrufs zunächst ein Behörden-Audit des Allergenmanagementsystems durchzuführen. Grenzen der quantitativen Berechnung: Praxisbeispiele, in denen eine quantitative Spurenberechnung schlicht nicht möglich ist, sowie die Fehleranfälligkeit der Analytik (u. a. bei der Glutenbestimmung). Leitfaden zur Risikobewertung: Warum der HACCP-Leitfaden 2022/C 355 mit seinen drei Anhängen – inklusive Beschreibung der behördlichen Überprüfung – ein Vorbild für das Allergenmanagement sein sollte. Flickenteppich EU: Unterschiedliche Regeln in Tschechien, den Niederlanden, Spanien, Dänemark und England, das Problem mehrsprachiger Verpackungen und die Gefahr der Verbrauchertäuschung. Zeitplan der Harmonisierung: Kommissionsvorschlag bis Jahresende, anschließende Anhörungsphase – realistisch wird eine einheitliche Regelung eher bis Ende 2028. Timestamps für Schnellhörer: 02:19 – Codex Alimentarius: Stand der Arbeiten zur Allergenspuren-Deklaration seit 2019. 04:42 – Grenzwert oder Orientierungswert?

Het was me het beursdagje weer wel. Zo beschuldigt Apple OpenAI van diefstal en spant het een rechtszaak aan. AkzoNobel zit op zijn beurt dan weer niet te wachten op wéér een overnamebod van wéér het Japanse Nippon Paint. Deze aflevering hebben we het over die twee bijzondere zaken. Maar ook uitgebreid over de omzetcijfers van TSMC, de grootste chipmaker van de wereld. Dat stunt terwijl de lat al zo hoog ligt. We kijken wat dat betekent voor de kwartaalcijfers van ASML. Dat verkoopt namelijk veel aan TSMC, gaan we dat terugzien in hun kwartaalcijfers? Ook gaat het over de goede verkoopcijfers van autobouwer Stellantis. Dat heeft een rampjaar achter de rug. Vorig jaar een recordverlies van dik 22 miljard. Maar er schijnt licht aan het einde van de autotunnel! De verkopen in Europa trekken aan, maar het zijn vooral de verkopen in de VS die gunstig stemmen. Daar doet Stellantis het opvallend goed. Verder hoor je ook meer over Disney. Wells Fargo zegt dat het mediabedrijf zijn streamingtak moet afsplitsen. Dan zou het aandeel met 40 (!) procent stijgen.

Can governments decide who gets access to advanced AI models? Are third-party breaches becoming impossible to control? And why are so many CISOs reaching burnout? In this special Cybersecurity Today Month in Review Panel, host Jim Love is joined by cybersecurity experts Laura Payne, David Shipley, and Mike Kim (Mycroft) to examine the biggest cybersecurity stories and trends from June 2026. The panel explores the controversy over U.S. export controls on Anthropic's Mythos and Fable AI models, what they reveal about digital sovereignty, and whether governments should be able to restrict access to frontier AI. They also discuss the continuing wave of third-party breaches, including Salesforce ecosystem compromises and the Clue breach, and why organizations must move beyond compliance toward practical risk management. The conversation examines FortiBleed, exposed administrator portals, credential reuse, and the difficult balance between software flaws, operational mistakes, and secure-by-default design. The panel also tackles one of cybersecurity's biggest human challenges: CISO burnout, executive accountability, organizational culture, and what separates successful security leaders from those set up to fail. The episode concludes with encouraging developments in international cybercrime enforcement, including Operation Riptide, and why better intelligence sharing and improved operational security are making it harder for cybercriminals to hide. Whether you're a CISO, security practitioner, IT leader, or simply interested in the rapidly changing cybersecurity landscape, this discussion offers practical insight into the trends shaping the industry.

Host: Lalo Solorzano Published: July 10, 2026 Length: ~12 minutes Presented by: Global Training Center Summary This week, Lalo Solorzano steps in behind the microphone while Cindy Allen enjoys a well-earned vacation—and instead of Taylor Swift, he's drawing inspiration from Metallica's "Sad But True." The title fits. Across CBP, the Department of Commerce, and the FTC, one message is becoming increasingly clear: trade compliance is becoming more data-driven, more electronic, and more demanding. From modernization initiatives and export controls to de minimis implementation and "Made in USA" enforcement, organizations are being expected to prove more, document more, and know more about every transaction. Rather than focusing on a single headline, this episode connects the dots between several regulatory developments to highlight a broader trend shaping the future of international trade. This Week in Trade CBP continues modernizing trade processes through expanded electronic filing initiatives, including e-bonds, export manifests, and vessel entry modernization. Rulemaking continues following the end of de minimis treatment, with new electronic filing requirements for informal entries and international mail shipments. CBP is evaluating additional importer identity verification requirements for customs brokers. The Department of Commerce continues advancing work on Section 232 actions, AD/CVD proceedings, and export control regulations. The FTC issued warning letters to companies regarding potentially improper "Made in USA" claims. Main Topic Although this week's news covers multiple agencies and regulatory actions, the underlying story is much larger than any one announcement. Lalo explains how CBP, Commerce, and the FTC are all moving toward the same objective: greater visibility into international trade through better data, stronger documentation, and increased accountability. Whether companies are filing customs entries, managing exports, making country-of-origin claims, or relying on e-commerce fulfillment models, compliance is becoming less about reacting to problems and more about demonstrating that internal controls, documentation, and processes are already in place. As Lalo puts it throughout the episode—"Sad but true." Key Takeaways Electronic filing and automation continue replacing paper-based trade processes. The post–de minimis environment requires greater attention to entry data and importer responsibilities. Companies should routinely evaluate potential AD/CVD exposure rather than relying solely on tariff classifications. Export compliance continues expanding into advanced technologies, software, AI, semiconductors, and biotechnology. "Made in USA" claims should be treated as compliance statements—not marketing slogans. Strong documentation and cross-functional collaboration are becoming competitive advantages.

Russia's Energy Chokepoint and the Shifting Global Oil Map. Michael Bernstam. Ukrainian drone strikes on major Russian refineries have triggered a severe fuel crisis, forcing export bans on diesel and gasoline. Meanwhile, Gulf states are building massive pipelines to bypass the Strait of Hormuz. These developments are neutralizing Iran's "golden weapon" and shifting global oil transit maps away from traditional naval chokepoints. (9)
On today's episode of the AgNet News Hour, California Walnut Commission and Board CEO and Executive Director Robert Verloop shared an optimistic outlook for the state's walnut industry, highlighting strong export demand, improving trade conditions, and what growers can expect as the 2026 harvest approaches. Verloop said the 2025 crop benefited from favorable growing conditions that resulted in exceptional quality and minimal losses during processing. While the large crop initially created abundant supplies, strong domestic and international demand has steadily reduced inventories, leaving the industry in a favorable position heading into the new season. California remains the dominant producer of walnuts in the United States, accounting for approximately 99% of the nation's commercial walnut production. The industry includes roughly 3,700 growers farming about 375,000 bearing acres throughout the Central Valley and surrounding production regions. International trade continues to be a major driver for the industry, with about two-thirds of California walnuts exported worldwide. Verloop highlighted recent progress in trade negotiations with the European Union, where reduced tariffs are expected to strengthen California's position in one of its largest export markets. He also pointed to India as one of the industry's biggest long-term opportunities. California walnuts currently face a 100% tariff entering India, but negotiations continue between U.S. trade officials and the Indian government. Verloop said lowering those barriers could significantly expand demand, calling India one of the most promising growth markets for California walnuts. Other export destinations, including Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, Morocco, and Southeast Asia, have also contributed to stronger international shipments over the past year. Verloop noted that while competition from countries such as Chile and China remains part of the global marketplace, California continues to distinguish itself through consistent quality, flavor, and reliability. Beyond exports, the California Walnut Commission is also working to increase domestic consumption. One major focus has been repositioning walnuts in grocery stores from the baking aisle into the produce department, emphasizing that walnuts are a fresh agricultural product grown on trees. The organization is also expanding efforts with chefs and restaurants to encourage more menu applications beyond traditional salads and baked goods. Looking toward harvest, Verloop said growers are closely monitoring weather conditions as orchards move through the critical nut-filling stage. An early harvest is possible if favorable conditions continue, although producers will continue watching for any late-season heat or rainfall that could affect harvest timing and quality. Throughout the conversation, Verloop emphasized that California's walnut growers remain focused on producing a high-quality crop while continuing to expand markets around the world.

Deze aflevering hebben we het over banken! Over ABN Amro en over Unicredit (en daarmee automatisch over Commerzbank). ABN wordt hard op de vingers getikt, Unicredit kan gewoon zijn gang gaan. ABN moet een boete betalen, Unicredit blijft juist miljoenen uitgeven aan een overname waar de andere bank niet op zit te wachten. We hebben het over die boete van ABN. Die is er omdat ze (alweer) steken laten vallen met de controle op witwassen. Er zijn erge fouten gemaakt, zegt toezichthouder DNB. Alleen beleggers maken zich er totaal niet druk om. Is dat terecht? Hoor je ook over Unicredit. Dat heeft inmiddels 48 procent van Commerzbank in handen. Waarmee ze in feite alle macht hebben op aandeelhoudersvergaderingen. We kijken wanneer de overname er is. Ook of we nu een overnamegolf in bankenland kunnen verwachten. Verder gaat het ook nog over het massaontslag bij Volkswagen. Het was vandaag erop of eronder voor de ceo. Hij moet dat immense ontslag proberen te verkopen bij de kritische raad van commissarissen.

China cannot sell as much as it used to in the United States. That trade has to go somewhere, and somewhere might be Europe.In this week's VoxTalk, Tim Phillips asks Pol Antràs (Harvard) and Beata Javorcik (EBRD, Oxford) what this means for European producers and consumers.Antràs and Andrea Presbitero have mapped which countries and sectors face the sharpest competition from redirected Chinese exports, and which stand to gain. Does cheap Chinese tech ease Europe's energy cost crisis, or squeeze European manufacturers of wind turbines and electric cars?If Europe decides to take the gains where consumers and firms can get them, and compensate the producers who are legitimately hurt, how do they go about it? And can raising tariffs in a world of global value chains protecting one sector without damaging others?New episode, recorded at the PSE-CEPR Policy Forum 2026 in Paris.The research behind this episode:Antràs, Pol, and Andrea F. Presbitero. 2026. "The Remains of the Trade: The U.S.-China Trade War and its Aftermath." Preliminary versionTo cite this episode:Phillips, Tim, Pol Antràs, and Beata Javorcik. 2026. "Europe in the Middle." VoxTalks Economics (podcast). About the guests:Pol Antras is Robert G. Ory Professor of Economics at Harvard University, a Research Associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research, and a Research Affiliate at the Centre for Economic Policy Research. His research spans global value chains, the organisation of multinational firms, and, most recently, the intersection of trade policy and geopolitics.Beata Javorcik is Chief Economist of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, on leave from her position as Professor of Economics at the University of Oxford and Fellow of All Souls College. She is Director of the International Trade Programme at the Centre for Economic Policy Research. Her research spans foreign direct investment, industrial policy, and, increasingly, the economics of geopolitical fragmentation.Research cited in this episode:The Great Reallocation is the term coined by Laura Alfaro and Davin Chor for the reorganisation of United States sourcing away from direct imports from China and toward alternative suppliers such as Vietnam, Mexico, and Taiwan. Antrà s and Presbitero's paper extends this idea to third countries, showing that Chinese exports displaced from the American market are increasingly landing in Europe and Asia rather than disappearing.Geopolitical externality is a concept developed by Laura Alfaro, Maggie Chen, and Beata Javorcik in their working paper "The Battle over Knowledge: Multinationals, Diffusion, and Governance." It describes how knowledge transferred abroad by multinational firms can strengthen a rival state's strategic capability in ways the firm never intended and the market never prices, which is why governments increasingly restrict flows of codified, tacit, and organisational knowledge that would once have passed unremarked.Voluntary export restraints were the mechanism used to defuse the United States' trade conflict with Japanese carmakers in the 1980s. Rather than imposing tariffs, Japan agreed to limit its car exports, and Japanese manufacturers responded by building plants directly in the United States. Javorcik cites this as the precedent for how the current standoff over Chinese electric vehicles and knowledge transfer might eventually be resolved.The Draghi report on European competitiveness, published by the European Commission in September 2024, recommended conditioning Chinese investment in the European electric vehicle sector on mandatory knowledge transfer. Javorcik notes the difficulty of calibrating such requirements: demand too little and Europe gains nothing from the technology; demand too much and Chinese investors have no reason to come at all."Industrial Policies for Multi-stage Production: The Battle for Battery-powered Vehicles," by Keith Head, Thierry Mayer, Marc Melitz, and Chenying Yang, models how tariffs and subsidies reshape the location of battery and vehicle assembly plants across a multi-stage supply chain. Antrà s cites the paper's finding that protecting the electric vehicle sector through tariffs can produce worse outcomes than the problem it was meant to solve.Export controls and innovation, discussed by Javorcik with reference to Chinese firms such as DeepSeek and Huawei, illustrate a pattern in which restricting a country's access to a technology, in this case advanced semiconductors, can accelerate that country's innovation in adjacent areas rather than simply constraining it. She draws a parallel with rare earth export restrictions, which have historically spurred substitute technologies rather than suppressing them.More VoxTalks Economics episodes:In a conversation recorded at the CEPR Annual Forum in Paris called "What should Europe do about Trump?" Tim Phillips spoke to Beatrice Weder di Mauro and Ugo Panizza of the Graduate Institute Geneva, about how Europe should respond to the second Trump administration's trade policies.Listeners interested in how firms navigate geopolitical trade disruption should also hear "Trading around geopolitics," in which Giancarlo Corsetti, Banu Demir, and Beata Javorcik discuss how Turkish exporters filled the gap left by sanctions on Russia.Related reading on VoxEU:"An update on the great reallocation in US supply chain trade" uses detailed United States import data through 2025 to track the scope and pace of the reallocation discussed in this episode."From tariffs to trade flows: Diversion effects and China's exports to the EU" examines the evidence for and against the trade deflection story that Antras and Javorcik discuss, and finds the picture more mixed than a simple diversion narrative suggests."China shock 2.0 and the euro area: Cheaper imports, tougher competition" decomposes the recent surge in Chinese exports to the euro area and argues that structural forces within China, rather than diversion from the American market, explain most of it."The impact of trade wars on firms in third countries" proposes a model of how bilateral trade shocks spill over to bystander economies, applying it to Italian firms during the 2018 to 2019 trade war.
Unilever ziet een van zijn grote aandeelhouders weglopen. Een die al meer dan 15 jaar trouw was aan het bedrijf. Het gaat om fondsbeheerder Terry Smith. Die hard uithaalt naar de directie. Tegen de Financial Times zegt hij misleid te zijn door de directie. Unilever beloofde hem (net na de afsplitsing van de ijstak in 2025) geen grote onderdelen meer te verkopen. Maar ze deden het toch. De voedingstak ging eruit. Volgens Smith neemt niet de directie de grote beslissingen, maar activistische aandeelhouder Nelson Peltz. Hij zou achter de schermen de touwtjes in handen hebben. Deze aflevering kijken we wat dat voor jou als beleggers betekent. Is het nu een voordeel of toch een nadeel? Gaat het ook weer over het bezoek van handelsminister Sjoerd Sjoerdsma aan China. Hij was zelf optimistisch over zijn bezoek, maar daar denkt zijn Chinese college toch anders over. Hij zet Sjoerdsma gelijk aan het werk. Het is ook de aflevering waarin we het meerdere keren over Apple hebben. Het gaat over een Chinese chip die ze in China aan het testen zijn. In eigen land pleasen ze ondertussen het Witte Huis met een andere deal.

New Zealand Apples and Pears says trading with India is about getting money back in the pockets of growers. Sign off on the Free Trade Agreement is still making its way through Parliament, but Prime Minister Christopher Luxon says exporters are already laying the groundwork. India's grown from being our seventh largest market for apples, to the fourth – and the number of Indian tourists is also up. Apples and Pears CEO Danielle Adsett told Mike Hosking it's important to start allocating some quota towards the Indian market. She says exports have increased in anticipation of the agreement, and the industry is excited for the season ahead. Adsett told Hosking the agreement's potential is untold, but growth should continue. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
