Why did Trump just cave?

Because when the US borrows money it does so by selling Treasury bonds. Mostly to China, Japan, Europe.

Overnight there was a sudden spike in holders dumping their bonds.

Trump picked a fight with our creditors, and our creditors just won.

The reason that the US is locking up tourists for weeks in hellish detention centers rather than letting them book tickets back home is because the detention centers are owned by corporations. They are charging the taxpayers fortunes to cage these people, and making bonanzas off their suffering.

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

Breaking: Labour’s plan to give millions of workers a pay rise has just passed the Commons. Next Tuesday, 3 million people will receive a £1,400 boost in the national living wage. Let’s have more of this 👏

This is a mission everyone should be able to get behind. Tens of thousands of Ukrainian children have been torn from their families. No effort must be spared to bring them home:https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-administration-halts-program-track-abducted-ukrainian-children-lawmakers-2025-03-18/

This story is horrific and terrifying. Then, near the end, this:

"The reality became clear: Ice detention isn’t just a bureaucratic nightmare. It’s a business. These facilities are privately owned and run for profit."

I’m the Canadian who was detained by Ice for two weeks. It felt like I had been kidnapped
I was stuck in a freezing cell without explanation despite eventually having lawyers and media attention. Yet, compared with others, I was lucky

A good overview of the Russian mind:

"We can't finish until we destroy all the Nazis. Ukraine is our enemy, Poland is our enemy, the Baltic states are the enemy. These are our most important enemies. They are too much against us. Negotiations with them do not work."
