Given the new dimensions of influence campaign (see Elon Musk) - probably time to tackle ALL donations from legal persons. And simply ban them. /8 @lobbycontrol.bsky.social

There could not be a more compelling metaphor than cementing over the Rose Garden and then calling it a rose garden and then making part of the People's House a private club for rich men who tell the weak little flower of an emperor his clothes are beautiful. #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace

En direct, incendie dans l’Aude : le gigantesque feu est toujours actif, une enquête a été ouverte pour connaître son origine
Le plus gros incendie de l’été en France a « parcouru 12 000 hectares et traversé 15 communes », rapportait la préfecture ce matin. Une personne est morte dans sa maison, et neuf autres ont été blessées, dont une « en urgence absolue », et un disparu.

I can tell you what the models show -- they show an increase because that is pretty much by design. The reality would be more complicated because it depends on the fiscal and monetary response to job loss. I would say the net is small.

I guess manufacturing jobs are not the only kinds of jobs. Do you know the net effect of trade on jobs?

"fantastical to think that productivity growth and a shift to service[s] cost us 40% of manufacturing jobs in [the 2000s] when the trade deficit exploded, but not in decades before or [after], when employment...has been on a modest upward trend" @deanbaker13.bsky.social

Interesting that this week's two big theatrical releases both feature billionaire villains who I'm sure are not supposed to represent anyone in real life but just happen to be in the self-driving electric car and private rocket ship businesses. #TheNakedGun #badguys2

Why does risky coastal real estate keep selling despite rising seas, flooding, and insurance chaos?
It’s not just denial — it's debt, disaster aid, and disconnection.

BREAKING: There has just been a huge argument between Zelenskyy, Trump & Vance in the Oval Office.

Trump calls Zelenskyy disrespectful and says he “is no position to dictate” to the US.

Trump raises his voice to Zelenskyy. He can’t stand someone standing up to him.

This is unbelievable.
