Today in a post on Truth Social, Trump cited the framework of a future deal reached with NATO. Now, the post followed a meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte at the World Economic Forum in Davos. Afterwards, Trump spoke with reporters.
It's a long-term deal. It's the ultimate long-term deal. I think it puts everybody in a really good position, especially as it pertains to security and minerals.

What are the implications of the Supreme Court's stance on Fed Governor Lisa Cook?
The Supreme Court seems wary of President Trump's effort to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook over unproven allegations of mortgage fraud. More from Bloomberg's Amy Morris in Washington.
Solicitor General John Sauer argues that Cook isn't fit to serve.
The American people should not have their interest rates determined by someone who was, at best, grossly negligent in obtaining favorable interest rates for herself.
But those allegations are unproven, and the justices seem to acknowledge that firing Cook could upend the Fed's independence. Justice Brent Kavanaugh expressed skepticism of there being no judicial review of the actions of the president.
very low bar for cause that the president alone determines, I mean, that would weaken, if not shatter, the independence of the Federal Reserve.
Fed Governor Cook released a statement saying that as long as she serves at the Federal Reserve, she will uphold the principle of political independence. In Washington, Amy Morris, Bloomberg Radio.

How is Congress moving to regulate AI chip sales to China?
But for Kevin Hassett, the director of the National Economic Council, The Fed crossed the line of being independent when Chair Powell warned about the impact of President Trump's tariffs.

Kevin Hassett speaking there to Bloomberg on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Congress is one step closer to gaining the authority to review AI chip sales to China. Today, a House committee focused on foreign affairs approved bipartisan legislation calling for congressional oversight of advanced AI chip exports. Now, this move is likely to open a rift with the Trump administration over plans to allow NVIDIA to sell its powerful H200 processors to the Chinese market.
