The Trump administration has reacted to a small scale lone wolf attack by in DC announcing a sweeping collective punishment, using the organs of government to heap blame on partisan rivals, and potentially dissuading anyone from collaborating with US forces abroad for a generation.

Putin says a U.S. delegation will visit Moscow next week to talk, called parts of the peace plan “laughable.” He denied plans to attack Europe, floated nuclear test talks, and declared direct legal talks with Ukraine “impossible.”

Oh, and Kyiv must hold a referendum on giving up land.

Opponents also warn that deregulation, just two years after the collapse of several mid-sized US lenders, could encourage excessive risk-taking by banks, expose their customers to more wrongdoing and losses, and even lay the groundwork for the next financial meltdown.

Further reforms are yet to be presented in detail — but critics are wary. Analysts say that deregulation will free up almost $2.6tn in lending capacity and boost profitability, prompting bankers around the world to lobby their own regulators for a loosening of rules in a risky “race to the bottom”.

What would bank deregulation actually mean? After 2008, banks were forced to dramatically increase the amount of capital allocated to loans on their balance sheets. Initial reforms are focused on loosening rules around these capital buffers, potentially giving US lenders a powerful global advantage.

This is the woman driving US bank deregulation. Her name is Michelle Bowman — or Miki — and she’s the Fed's Trump-appointed vice-chair of supervision. She’s also in the running to succeed Fed chair Jay Powell. If anyone can drive through the most significant policy reversals in decades, it’s Miki.

The US Federal Reserve is on a mission to lighten much of the regulatory burden placed on banks after the 2008 financial crisis. The reforms would be seriously profitable for some of Wall Street’s biggest institutions, but could they also sow the seeds of the next financial crisis?
