Republican lawmakers said that China won’t begin purchasing US agricultural products anytime soon after a closed-door briefing. As part of the fallout from Trump’s trade war, China has yet to book a single shipment of US soybeans this season, fueling anxiety among farmers as this year’s harvest moves ahead. China is the world’s largest soybean importer. BBG
US trade representative Jamieson Greer has warned that Washington will continue to hit its trading partners with tariffs even if some are ruled illegal by the Supreme Court later this year. The Supreme Court is set to hear cases brought by businesses challenging Trump’s use of emergency powers to impose tariffs in the first week of Nov. FT
Taiwan pushed back on a US request to move chip production stateside to cover half of America’s demand. BBG
Japan’s business sentiment among large manufacturers improved for a second straight quarter, according to the Tankan survey. South Korea’s adjusted exports fell 6.1% year on year in September. BBG

Eurozone inflation for Sept is right inline with expectations, including headline at +2.2% (up from +2% in Aug) and core at +2.3% (same as Aug), a development that’s a modest relief given the German CPI on Tues ran ahead of expectations. BBG
Fed’s Logan (2026 voter) said the Fed will be cautious in any further reductions and that the US may need additional labour market slack to reach the 2% inflation target. She noted resilient consumption and business investment show policy is only modestly restrictive, adding that inflation expectations cannot be taken for granted and that financial conditions are now a tailwind, further evidence that policy is modestly restrictive. Logan said it is unclear how much further the Fed can cut before hitting neutral and warned that even excluding tariff impacts, inflation may be as high as 2.4%, driven by non-housing services, according to Reuters.

Whoa - Loomer just discovered the founder of an ICE tracking app is also employed at the US Army Research Lab
How can someone be entrusted with our national security when they’re directly undermining federal law enforcement operations?
I’d say that’s worthy of an investigation

EXCLUSIVE:
🚨Lead Scientist For Human-Guided Machine Learning At The U.S. Army Research Laboratory in Maryland is the founder of an ICE Tracking App that helps illegal aliens evade ICE🚨
Meet Nicholas Waytowich @NickWaytowich, he is the Lead Scientist for the Human-Guided
Machine Learning Branch at the US Army Research Lab in Maryland.
He is also the founder of an app called “Red Dot”, which is an ICE tracking app that helps illegal aliens evade detection from
@ICEgov
. This app is currently available in the app stores.
@Apple
, despite the fact that law enforcement has confirmed violent, Leftist radicals are using these apps to locate ICE agents and shoot them. This happened in Dallas, Texas last week.
In the App Store, Red Dot says it was created by Binary Brains, LLC, a company registered out of Florida, according to SunBiz records. Florida’s SunBiz business registry lists Nicholas Waytowich as the CEO of Binary Brains, LLC. I have blurred the addresses out so I am not accused of doxxing. But, I am happy to give the original documents to
@SecWar
@SecArmy
@DHSgov
and
@FBI
.

@AGJamesUthmeier
@GovRonDeSantis
According to the SunBiz records, the CEO’s address, the mailing address and the principal address for Binary Brains LLC is the same address listed as Nicholas Waytowich’s personal residence, which he listed on his most up to date resume on his website, in which he lists himself as the Lead Scientist for the Human-Guided Machine Learning Branch at the US Army Research Lab in Maryland, where he has been working for the last 10 years.
On his website, Nicholas Waytowich says in addition to working at the
@USArmy
Research Lab, he is an “Adjunct Professor at both the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC)
@UMBC
and Anne Arundel Community College (AACC)
@AnneArundelCC
” where he “teaches Introduction to Machine Learning as well as other engineering and computer science courses.”
It’s completely unacceptable for the founder of an ICE tracking app to be employed at the US Army Research Lab, the U.S. Army's primary foundational research laboratory, responsible for driving scientific discovery and developing innovative technologies to meet the Army's future operational needs.
Not only should Nicholas Waytowich be investigated for endangering the lives of
@ICEgov
agents, but he should be FIRED from the US Army Research lab.
