Assuming that votes in congress goes as it appears, Sen. Schumer should resign. Immediately. Gov. Hochul could appoint A. Delgado to fill the vacancy.

The point of the Trump tariffs is for Trump and/or his family to grift. Everything he does is about getting his cut from “the deal.”

When taxes are paid to the federal government, the Money is destroyed. The idea that the government has to collect taxes to spend is a misunderstanding of government finance. It would be helpful if you would get it straight.

If you read one book in the next 12 months, it should be "The Deficit Myth" by @stephaniekelton.bsky.social (or any other book on Modern Monetary Theory). I promise it will uproot your ideas of how national economies and currencies work.

Somebody,we, must stop this Trump/Vance insanity. They did something many did not believe was possible. They rejected all the allies we have made and nurtured for well over 100 years. Now we are joining the pariah nations of the world.

@warren.senate.gov has anyone suggested filing an 11 USC 303 against DJT and/or his sidekick?

Gov. Hochul, the loss of four NYC deputy mayors is on you. I can’t speak to the significance of their departure, but whatever that is, could have been avoided with the removal of Eric Adams.

I’ll keep reposting, probably until I give up on Bluesky. I have little faith that actual policymakers will ever stop believing that government finances are no different than their personal checkbook.
Trump's Executive Order to Rename Debt and Deficits
Last week, I wrote about Trump’s executive order to begin the process of establishing a sovereign wealth fund (SWF) for the United States.

Kudos to my former colleagues. We need some substantial judicial discipline at the federal level. Yes, there are constitutional issues, which do not diminish the need.

open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p.... This needs to be widely understood, especially by Republicans. Trump won’t understand it. He doesn’t need to as he is being paid handsomely.
Of course it’s a coup

Are Democrats Launching a New Playbook to Fight the Republican Agenda?
open.substack.com/pub/stephani...

I see lots of writing about how Democrats should stand up to MAGA. I’d like to see more recognize the importance of framing their strategies through a MMT lens as explained by Prof Kelton.
Are Democrats Launching a New Playbook to Fight the Republican Agenda?
Yesterday, POLITICO reported that “Democrats are launching a tax-focused group as their newest messaging megaphone in an attempt to counter President Donald Trump on one of his signature issues.”

And so there it is. I won't link to them but CATO has just published a piece saying it is time for Europe to manage its own defense that the USA should leave NATO. No NATO for CATO.

I guess we can add CATO to the President-elects Russia First pantheon.
