Welcome back! We've returned from our August recess to discuss the trial against former President Joseph Kabila in the Congo, Israel's rapidly deteriorating public diplomacy strategies, and, yes, the reactions of European nations to the end of the U.S. de minimis tax benefit and the start of 15% tariffs. With some countries halting shipping to the U.S., how will the U.S. government respond? Has the Trump administration worked with global shipping companies to explain the changes? How will this impact U.S. consumers and small and medium-sized businesses in Europe? We're covering all of this in under 15 minutes.
