🇺🇳Abolishing #USAID will be the final nail in the coffin of the #UnitedNations Sustainable Development Goals.

🌍I can’t believe this is what the world has come to…

I’m in the @europarl.europa.eu today to listen to the Socialists & Democrats’ solutions to “Capital and Wealth Taxation”

📖I’m truly enjoying @josephestiglitz.bsky.social’s new book.

It’s very elegant in its dissection of the failure of “free” markets and its proposals for a new progressive vision of government’s role in the economy.

Thank you @danpfeiffer.bsky.social
I really needed to hear this today

No one really wants to #TaxTheRich...

In my debut #Opinion piece ( @euobserver.com ) I discuss how the recent failure of the "Tax the Rich" petition shows
current #progressive parties are all bark and no bite.

My favorite #Xmas tradition.

Guests leave just in time for Christmas at the Garden and I’m cracking open a newly gifted book in the commercial break.

Happy #Monday from Brussels!

What are you looking forward to in #December?
December 2, 2024 at 10:19 AM
So let’s get started 🦋

I can’t wait to see what this new platform has to offer.

Thanks for being here!

But why am I here on #Bluesky?

I want to find interesting people doing cool stuff including art, politics, and everything in between.

It was my first #socialmedia job and it has taught me so much, especially how to bridge my passion (Econ/politics) with new skills (journalism/content).
December 2, 2024 at 9:54 AM
I make content for their #personalfinance project and write some of their #podcasts as well
December 2, 2024 at 9:54 AM
I also have a side-job working as an #Economics author for Will Ita, an Italian media company.

Filled to the brim of amazingly passionate individuals.

Since then we’ve grown to have over 70 members from 17 countries. I’ve made some amazing friendships along the way!

When I was a freshman I cofounded EU&U!

A youth association with the goal to close the gap between citizens and #EU institutions.
December 2, 2024 at 9:54 AM
I’m also passionate about the #EuropeanUnion!

Which makes living at the center of it particularly exciting.

I’m addicted to bougie #coffee spots.

Send me your recommendations (any city).

This one was in Copenhagen 🇩🇰

#Brussels and I have a love/hate relationship.

It’s mainly due to the fact I don’t understand it’s weather. But we are starting to get along.

In February I said “Ciao Ciao” to #Italy and moved to #Brussels to start a #PhD in Social and Economic Sciences
December 2, 2024 at 9:54 AM
But everything fell into place after #graduation.

You know I had to get a commemorative picture with Ferdinando.

The last two years were super challenging.

These are my notes from Labor Economics, my favorite class.
