Last week, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced a $20 billion package to rescue the Argentinian economy.

When the open letter from univ prez against Trump over-reach was released on Tues morning, it had 180 signers. By Tues evening, over 270.
Through the day Wed (yesterday) it went into mid-300s.
This morning, Thurs, starts at more than 400.

Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.
