This is the best speech, just from a pure rhetoric perspective - its sophistication and persuasiveness - that I've seen a politician deliver in a good long while. Really recommend watching or reading the whole thing.

Just another reason why the President of the United States must not be “involved” in decisions about approving megamergers.
It’s simple: Any review needs to be based on the law and facts — not Donald Trump’s political opinions and personal investments.

Trump promised his tariffs would bring manufacturing “roaring back.” Instead, factory jobs have fallen nearly every month since April, as higher input costs and uncertainty hit U.S. producers. This article explains why.
Trump’s promised manufacturing boom is a bust so far
Manufacturing employment has declined every month since April, when the president said tariffs would bring factories “roaring back.”

It’s four years since I wrote my love letter-cum-elegy to Hong Kong, after almost three decades in this extraordinary city, and two years before leaving permanently. Looking back, I still pretty much like the look of it.

Another old Cambridge street watercolour, done sitting on the low wall at the front of St John's. This is Bridge Street with autumn coming on. Someone wearing a gown is cycing along. Sold a while ago and scanned from a film photo of the original.

Don’t you think they’ll bomb people on the way to vote in that so-called “referendum”? One would be delusional to think otherwise.

Yeah I've been worried about that. Unless it's all mail-in but not sure how well that works in the middle of war. Otherwise in-person voting is like setting up a bunch of targets imho.

Ezio Mauro è un commentatore di provata fede progressista. È misurato nei toni ed equilibrato nelle posizioni. Il suo editoriale di oggi dovrebbe togliere il sonno ai leader della sinistra italiana, e ad Elly Schlein in particolare. Che invece dorme della grossa.
