PM Carney will do a slow bleed sell-off coordinated with other countries in Europe. The US will have to increase the interest rates on their bonds to keep countries holding them. Trump has never called Carney 'Governor' because Carney knows his economic power 🇨🇦 #CarneyForCanada #CdnPoli #ElbowsUp

Looks like the evidence for this weird chemical abundance in an exoplanet atmosphere has gotten stronger with new JWST data: www.nytimes.com/2025/04/16/s...
Is it really a sign of life? That’s still not clear; lots of analysis left to do. But it’ll be interesting to see how it all pans out! 🧪 🔭
