China is an engineering state that values construction projects and technological primacy, Dan Wang argues, "whereas the United States is a lawyerly society, obsessed with protecting wealth by making rules rather than producing material goods."
While China Builds, America Litigates

Imagine if Joe Biden, newly in office, had launched a company with Hunter Biden and used his social media to recruit financial backers.
Then promised the most generous among them would earn an invitation to a private dinner with him ... Trump just did that.

Trump Just Did the Most Corrupt Thing Any President Has Ever Done
He’s using the White House to get rich from anonymous investors—and it’s hardly even a news story.

1) Fox News is for real not showing stock-market ticker during this week's collapse.
2) Its economic news is "strong jobs report."
3) Every time I've checked in today, the coverage has been "illegal immigrants committing new crimes."
This is state propaganda, on a par with North Korea or PRC.

We just watched Trump & Vance do Putin’s bidding in the Oval Office & it was horrific. Not even two months into this administration & it’s a disaster for the free world.

No, the meeting did not go badly for Ukraine. It exposed in the most undeniable, unequivocal way possible the pro-Putin commitments of the president and vice president. That was information Americans and allies needed to have clear before them.

While watching that horrifying, globe-shifting exchange with Zelenkskyy, I couldn't help but think about what a deliberately staged reality-TV moment it was, with two people ganging up on one and screaming a classic, totally petulant reality-TV accusation: They hadn't been thanked enough.

President Trump announces kleptocracy is here.
Trump: "We're gonna be selling a gold card. You have a green card, this is a gold card. We're gonna put a price on that card of about $5 million and that's going to give you green card privileges, plus. It's gonna be a route to citizenship, and wealthy people will be coming into our country."
