Trump attacks ‘woke' Jaguar as carmaker names first Indian chief
Jaguar Land Rover has appointed its first Indian chief executive as Donald Trump accused the company of being in 'absolute turmoil' following a 'woke' marketing campaign. PB Balaji, chief financial officer at the the carmaker's Indian owners, Tata Motors, is to take up the post in November as Jaguar deals with the fallout of a rebrand in which it ditched its big cat logo and embraced a new hot pink aesthetic. On Monday, the US president contrasted the fortunes of Britain's Jaguar with American Eagle, a US clothing brand that recently saw its share price surge after debuting an advertising campaign with actress Sydney Sweeney. Mr Trump wrote on his Truth Social social media platform: 'Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the 'HOTTEST' ad out there. It's for American Eagle, and the jeans are 'flying off the shelves.' Go get 'em Sydney! 'On the other side of the ledger, Jaguar did a stupid, and seriously WOKE advertisement, THAT IS A TOTAL DISASTER! The CEO just resigned in disgrace, and the company is in absolute turmoil. Who wants to buy a Jaguar after looking at that disgraceful ad.' It comes days after Adrian Mardell, the 64-year-old boss of Jaguar Land Rover, announced his intention to retire. Under Mr Mardell, the car company sought to shake off its traditional image as a brand for 'Jag Men' and instead target a younger demographic. As part of plans to relaunch the brand, Jaguar last year debuted an advertising campaign depicting a bright pink, Mars-like landscape and catwalk models wearing unusual, brightly coloured clothing – but no car. The clip was widely mocked online. Jaguar has also ditched its jumping cat logo and last December debuted a 'Barbie pink' concept car at Miami Art Week. Credit: Jaguar Critics have accused Jaguar of abandoning its core customers. Nigel Farage, the Reform UK leader, accusing Jaguar of going 'absolutely bonkers … showing a bunch of weirdos'. He predicted that the carmaker would 'now go bust. And you know what? They deserve to'. The appointment of Mr Balaji marks the first time Tata Motors has appointed a Jaguar Land Rover leader from within its own ranks since buying the two distinguished British brands from Ford at the height of the financial crisis. Mr Balaji, a mechanical engineering graduate, has worked at Tata Motors for almost eight years and has overseen a turnaround at JLR's parent company. The company has long been a dominant player in the Indian car market but was loss-making when he arrived. Tata Motor's share price has soared around 270pc since he arrived. At Jaguar, Mr Balaji must oversee a make-or-break relaunch of the brand. New Jaguars are currently unavailable in the UK as the carmaker prepares to launch an all-electric range next year. On Monday, Mr Trump said that Jaguar should have 'learned a lesson from Bud Lite, which went Woke and essentially destroyed, in a short campaign, the Company.' Two years ago, Bud Lite enraged Right-wingers in America and saw its sales plummet after it used transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney in its marketing. Mr Trump said on Truth Social: 'The tide has seriously turned – Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be.' His comments also came after it emerged that Ms Sweeney was a registered Republican. Records uncovered over the weekend show she registered with the party in June last year. Shares in American Eagle jumped 17pc after the president's endorsement. Jaguar Land Rover's sales dipped to £25.2bn for the year to March 31, down from £25.7bn a year earlier. The company said this was driven by 'the prioritisation of higher margin vehicles'. More recently, the company's business has been hugely disrupted by US tariffs. JLR's sales to the US were temporarily paused in April after Mr Trump announced a 25pc tariff on car imports. The British carmaker sells around 100,000 vehicles each year in the US and the trade war put some £6.5bn in sales at risk. The US-UK trade deal secured a 10pc tariff for the first 100,000 British vehicles exported, seen as predominantly benefitting JLR. Aston Martin has pushed for rules to stop the system becoming 'a JLR tariff agreement'. Last week, the company said: 'Adrian Mardell has expressed his desire to retire from JLR after three years as CEO and 35 years with the company.' Jaguar Land Rover has been approached for comment.

Milwaukee to host Young Republicans National Convention three years after RNC
MADISON – Milwaukee will host the Young Republican National Convention in August 2027, the announcement coming a little over a year after the city hosted the 2024 Republican National Convention. The Young Republican National Federation expects the convention to draw more that 1,200 attendees to Milwaukee, generating close to $1 million in economic activity for city, the organization estimated. 'Once again, Wisconsin will be in the national spotlight as Young Republicans from across the country gather in Milwaukee to organize, energize, and help elect Republicans up and down the ballot,' Kyle Schroeder, chairman of the Wisconsin Young Republicans, said in an Aug. 3 press release. The 2024 RNC drew an estimated 50,000 delegates and other visitors to Milwaukee and had a total economic impact of $321.5 million on the city and the greater state, according to a Tourism Economics report published in May. In Wisconsin, the youth vote holds weight, with both parties looking to mobilize Gen Z voters ahead of the 2024 presidential election through on-campus events and social media influencers. In 2020 and 2016, Wisconsin was decided by 20,000 votes — roughly 1% of the vote and a mere fraction of the more than 160,000 four-year students attending University of Wisconsin System campuses and Marquette University at the start of the 2024-25 academic year. The Young Republican National Federation hopes that bringing the national convention to Milwaukee will be a "testament to the strength and commitment" of young Republicans in Wisconsin. 'Their tireless efforts to grow the party and win elections made hosting this exciting convention in Milwaukee possible," Vice Chairman of the Young Republican National Federation Nik Rettinger said. In 2024, young voters as a whole favored former Vice President Kamala Harris over President Donald Trump 52% to 46%, according to Tuffs University's Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement. While the young voter bloc, defined as ages 18-29, were the age group with the highest support for the Democratic candidate in 2024, Trump saw a 10-point jump in youth support compared to 2020 data. Republicans made inroads in campus-heavy voting wards in 2024, a Journal Sentinel analysis found. A spokesperson for the Democratic Party of Wisconsin was not immediately available for comment.

Trump set to announce replacement for Fed Gov Kugler this week. The Fed chair in waiting?
President Trump said he plans to name a replacement this week for Federal Reserve governor Adriana Kugler, whose unexpected resignation set for this Friday offers the president an opportunity to put in place a successor for Fed Chair Jerome Powell. 'I have a couple of people in mind,' President Trump told reporters Sunday night. 'I'll be announcing that probably over the next couple of days.' Kugler's term as a governor was set to expire on Jan. 31. She has served as a Fed governor since Sept. 13, 2023, and will return to Georgetown University as a professor this fall. Kevin Warsh, a former Fed governor, and Kevin Hassett, the current chair of the President's Council of Economic Advisors, are thought to be at the top of the list for the next Fed chair and thus possible nominees to replace Kugler. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who is leading the search for Powell's replacement and is also a potential contender, has already sketched out a scenario where the White House appoints someone to fill Kugler's seat who can then be in the running to succeed Powell next May. The White House also hopes that Powell decides to leave the Fed Board of Governors when his chairmanship is up, which would open up a second seat that Trump can fill. Powell has not yet said whether he intends to do that; his term as a Fed governor is not up until 2028. Read more: How much control does the president have over the Fed and interest rates? Warsh already has a lot of experience navigating the central bank. He served as Fed governor from 2006 until 2011 and became former Fed Chair Ben Bernanke's liaison to Wall Street during the chaos of the 2008 financial crisis. He is also a known figure to Trump, who interviewed him for the Fed chair post eight years ago before deciding on Powell. Trump appointed Powell to be Fed chair in 2018 at the direction of then-Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin. Former President Joe Biden reappointed Powell in 2022. Warsh has been critical of the Fed as of late. He has suggested that the Fed could look through increases in inflation from tariffs because it would be a one-time increase in prices. He's also argued that the costs involved in renovating the Fed's headquarters represent one of several examples of how the Fed "has lost its way" and that the American people "need a reformer to fix" the institution and rebuild its credibility. "Frankly, it's about breaking some heads," he said on Fox Business last month, calling for "regime change." Back in April, Warsh gave a speech in Washington, D.C., in which he said that the Fed's "current wounds are largely self-inflicted" and called for a "strategic reset" to ease a loss of credibility and damage to the Fed's standing. Hassett, meanwhile, already has a close relationship with Trump, given that he advises the president on economic policy and also served in the first Trump administration. Read more: How jobs, inflation, and the Fed are all related Earlier in the year, Hassett said he was more focused on the 10-year Treasury yield (^TNX) than on any quick monetary policy changes at the Federal Reserve. While the Fed can influence short-term bond yields and long-term bond yields, longer-term bond yields are influenced by many factors outside the Fed, and it is the yield on the 10-year Treasury that influences mortgage rates. But lately, Hassett has been more blatant, saying there's no reason why the Fed shouldn't be cutting rates now, something the president has repeatedly hammered the central bank to do. The president will likely watch whoever he appoints to the open Fed governor position to see how they perform and whether they'd be a successor for Powell, whose term ends next May. Though Fed governors Chris Waller and Michelle Bowman are also jockeying for the position of Fed chair, in part by dissenting at last week's Fed policy meeting in favor of cutting rates by 25 basis points, rather than holding rates steady. The opportunity for the White House to fill Kugler's seat earlier than expected comes as Trump applies pressure on Powell and the Fed board to lower rates by as many as 3 percentage points. Whoever the president appoints, it is the Federal Open Market Committee, which is composed of 19 members, that makes the decision, not just the Fed chair, and the new chair will have to contend with the committee.
