On April 11, the 30-year Treasury yield crossed 5%.
Briefly.

How did anyone in the markets actually believe the two assumptions listed here? It mystifies me that people keep rationalising the actions of someone who clearly has no rationality.

Yesterday was #EqualPayDay and for every $1 white men make:
Asian women: 94 cents
White women: 80 cents
Black women: 66 cents
Native and Latina women: 58 cents
Women get paid less, but across racial lines the pay is even LOWER. This is #TheDoubleTax.

Prem might be the most important journalist in America right now, the only person covering this story with the urgency it needs. Absurd that there isn't wall to wall coverage of this.
SCOOP—Emails obtained by @zeteo.com show Mahmoud Khalil reached out for help from the Columbia administration *one day before* ICE detained him.
He said he couldn't sleep from threats he was receiving.
He even wrote that he feared ICE "might come to my home."

SCOOP: Emails Show Mahmoud Khalil Asked Columbia for Protection a Day Before He Was Detained
"I haven’t been able to sleep, fearing that ICE or a dangerous individual might come to my home. I urge you to intervene and provide the necessary protections to prevent further harm."

Don't EVER tell a man to be a good person or he'll join a death cult and campaign for your extinction
If progressives want to win back young men, then they must talk to them and address their needs, instead of constant scolding. All the finger wagging just drives them to Rogan, Peterson, and the Tate brothers. And they DO talk to young men.

I saw a Rednote video about “visual mixing” of paint, also called glazing, and have been using GenAI as a teacher to learn the technique. Such a simple but mind-blowing idea to use thin layers so that the light bounces through each layer and your eye does the mixing!
