this is an obvious bluff that will still probably work on Dem leadership (derogatory)
But Republicans have been daring Democrats to enter a political fight over the issue of military pay. “If the Democrats want to go to court and challenge troops being paid, bring it,” Speaker Mike Johnson said at a news conference on Tuesday.

Another factor is the institutional money has been (more or less) leaving the market and the influx of money is from retail investors, the exact sort of petty bourgeois element with extra cash and a pro-Trump media diet.
There’s also another important factor at work. While writing at my publication Notes on the Crises this year, I have argued that stock markets are “conventional wisdom processors.” What this means is that traders do not simply buy and sell on new information but on how they believe this new information fits into their compatriots’ views of the world. This may not seem like a major distinction, but it is. A Trump win last November was anticipated to be “good” for stocks by their conventional wisdom, and indeed, the stock market went up after his election. These “conventional wisdoms” can be surprisingly sturdy in the face of events that seem explosive to us outsiders.

They don't even bother to have a roof on their car, it's really amazing to see. The whole family can climb in. Jed, my friend Jed, has to carry his rifle just to leave the house.

This is an insane loan, good god.
xAi is offering to pay 12.5% yield on $3 billion in bonds, said the source who asked for anonymity to disclose non-public information. Previously, sources told Reuters the company had offered a 12% yield.

UK Labour moment
Nigel Farage's Reform UK has secured victory by six votes over Labour in Runcorn and Helsby as Sir Keir Starmer failed his first by-election test as Prime Minister. The narrow victory for new MP Sarah Pochin saw Reform taking a constituency which Labour won with a majority of almost 14,700 less than 12 months ago. The result came as Reform made gains against both Labour and the Conservatives across England in local contests, with Mr Farage claiming a "big moment" was taking place in politics. The by-election was triggered when former Labour MP Mike Amesbury quit after admitting punching a constituent.
