My Grandmother was a complete badass. Stuck up in the Barrens on a trap line with my Grandfather and Great Grandfather, she was raising two sons, making friends with her neighbours and providing for her family. I wish I was able to meet her and hear her stories. 1/2

I can't tell you how many interviews I've done where I've been asked: If Trump's policies are so problematic, why are U.S. stocks rising so rapidly.

A bit of international context illustrates the real issue here.

U.S. stocks have dramatically underperformed other advanced economies.

New study: Right-wing adherents tend to show stronger commitment to consuming meat and animal products, partly due to beliefs in human superiority over animals and resistance to the perceived threat that veganism/vegetarianism poses to traditional food norms

Italian Senator Carlo Calenda left Jeffrey Sachs literally speechless and shocked by calling him a liar and someone who repeats Russian propaganda narratives.

I believe this is exactly how public accountability should work - when a liar is called a liar.

Yes indeed! What do you do when you're covering a lying, bloviating politician who revels in attention, good or bad? Ignoring him or covering him neutrally or even covering him critically doesn't work. You've got to try something different! Clip and save this chart:

Kokenut taloustoimittaja Jan Hurri tylyttää:
"Vaikutusarvioiden ja -laskelmien tekemättä tai puutteellisiksi jättäminen on sikäli uskomatonta, että se viittaa hallituksen tehneen miljardimittojen sopeutustoimiaan osittain sokkona."

Kommentti: Valtiovarainministeriö tuli paljastaneeksi jotain uskomatonta hallituksen miljardileikkauksista
Talouspolitiikan kiristysten haittoja on vaikea ennalta arvioida – mutta ehkä pitäisi edes yrittää, kirjoittaa erikoistoimittaja Jan Hurri.

Le fait qu'il s'agit d'une politicienne centriste accroit encore la portée de son message.
Elle montre qu'il n'est pas besoin d'être "d'extrême gauche" pour s'opposer au programme mortifère, raciste et rabougri, de l'extrême-droite.
Il suffit d'avoir une colonne vertébrale politique.
S'opposer au fascisme, à l'extrême-droite, nécessite une clarté absolue sur le fond et la forme. Pas de "oui mais il faut écouter les autres" quand il s'agit de l'ED.
Cette parlementaire européenne (parti centriste, Suède) le fait parfaitement.
Pas un mot à ajouter.

Has anyone considered the possibility that the Trumpers think stagflation means there will be a lot more stag-parties? It would explain why they welcome it.

The Fed has announced that “stagflation” is here. It’s a word economists fear.

"diesel brought perhaps the only successful example of automotive digitalisation in Germany: Diesel test defeat devices have had a glorious decade"
Diesel is disappearing from our roads, even the German ones. The diesel fairy tale will come to an end. We will have a long, healthy and happy life ever after.

But today, let's send our thoughts and prayers to Diesel Dieter.

Basically this chart says we should encourage Trump to raise tariffs even more since that will lower prices for the rest of the world.
