To be clear, the FBI paid nearly $1M in overtime over a FIVE DAY PERIOD last March. And yes, part of it was to find and redact Trump's name. I spoke to sources who reviewed the files for the FBI and DOJ and wrote about it here: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-epstei...

The UK government’s budget is simply managing decline.

The budget does little to improve living standards or facilitate sustained economic growth.

Can't grow economy by hiking taxes on low/middle income families.

Whatever happened to taxing the rich?

They say that politicians refuse to learn important lessons, but it isn't about that at all. They don't want to learn anything. They don't make mistakes. They make deliberate acts of horror. They don't want to truly change anything. They're fine with the current inhuman society.

Reeves is reactionary in the most literal sense of the word. She is reacting to the demands of the markets, reacting to the fiscal rules inherited from the Tories, reacting to the fear that she may upset big business. There is nothing transformative about this at all

we are told is that “there is no money”, meaning that support must be withdrawn, that public services must be restricted, and that working people must bear the burden of decisions made to protect wealth.

Reeves has surrendered control of the economy to the very interests that caused its decline

Rachel Reeves'

She gave the City what it wanted.

She spent almost nothing on anything that might add value to the country.

She imposed austerity, although she denied it.

She increased some benefits, recognising that in a country where too little is happening, she had no choice but to do so

This is exactly what Neoliberalism doesn't want you to think about
If a government is not constrained by tax revenue, then the question becomes: who benefits from public spending? Who gains from austerity? Who holds power in the economy? That leads directly to the politics of class and distribution

governments cannot hide behind markets. If they cut services, cap benefits, or impose austerity, they do so because they choose to and not because the bond markets made them. As we have seen repeatedly this year, markets are not the grown-ups in the room.

The green transition cannot be financed by the private sector. It requires public direction on a scale never seen in peacetime. MMT explains how to mobilise those resources without pretending that taxes on the wealthy must be collected first.
The government spends first then taxes the money back

You cannot build a caring, sustainable economy while pretending that “there is no money left”. Nor can you do it while basing your economics on myths designed to protect the power of finance.

This incredibly irresponsible alcoholic idiot is calling for 500 additional troops in Washington. Because that won't incite more violence.

Everything about this silly "Secretary of War" is about saber rattling and pretending he is so strong. He really must have been picked on in school.

Whilst feeling a certain amount of sympathy for these residents, a great amount of caution is required before entering into a leasehold contract.
Domestic leasehold has always been a potential booby-trap.

For everyone that says “but 14 years of the Tories” or anyone that has to listen to it👇🏻
When you see "14 years of x" line, it tells you you're dealing with someone who can't analyse politics without a party lens.

Britain's been governed by the same overarching philosophy since 1979, regardless of which party was in power. And without understanding that, you won't understand anything.
How should Labour tackle 14 years of mismanagement? I'd like to hear some realistic alternatives, considering the available resources in law professionals, university places and tutors and physical spaces. All I've read so far here is 'throw money at it' without considering the resource implications
