Ketanji Brown Jackson absolutely embarrassed in the Court’s majority opinion: “We will not dwell on Justice Jackson’s argument, which is at odds with more than two centuries worth of precedent, not to mention the Constitution itself.”
I have to agree with Danielle on her recent interview comments that it is now very clear that Powell is more concerned about trying to set up Trump to fail by keeping interest rates too high based on the data. At this point, this must be the only conclusion.
Wow this is stunning!
How should people discern through the noise of media manipulation? In a 2012 interview with @CatholicNewsSvc, Pope Leo XIV (then Robert Cardinal Prevost) addresses the how some in the media manipulate narratives, and form people’s opinions for them. His solution:

A very good point.
I am not the guy to tell you what Epstein was. Or whether he killed himself. Or what the "Clielnt list" was. Becaause, like you, I don't actually know about any of those things. And I have never claimed that I do. I am going to tell you with 100% absolute certainty that Epstein…

Never thought I’d EVER agree with this guy but here we are.
Somehow I doubt the developments of the past week will increase private investment in Los Angeles.
They should allow volunteers to pay to use the pepper ball guns and water cannons.
Breaking: DHS police just fired endless rounds of crowd control munitions at Antifa rioters in Seattle. Several arrests have been made after Antifa launched an attack on the federal building.

Nate Silver’s latest blog post notes that conservatives are up 31 points among those with self-described excellent mental health, and down 26 among those with poor mental health. Democrats have turned themselves into the party of the neurotic, the unstable, and the miserable.…

Trump tariffs. Where are the powers coming from? Well, he has a menu of tariff options. It's the only tax that the president can incur without congress. For Reciprocal Tariffs, he used the International Emergency Economics Power Act (IEEPA), which has an advantage of SPEED and…
Trump trade authorities come from 3 sources: 1) International Emergency Economics Power Act (IEEPA) to give the president the power to declare a national emergency & impose tariffs. He did this w/ fentanyl for Mexico & Canada + Reciprocal tariffs. 2) Section 232 Tariffs that…
Argentina just did what most countries are too scared to do- they sank a Chinese boat that was stealing their fish. The Chinese trawler was fishing illegally in Argentina’s waters. @Jay83214566 @ChongJaIan
Of course - China would say it didn’t care that there was an embargo on Chinese goods by it’s #1 customer but a 1trn surplus country with manufacturing share of GDP key to investment and consumption & indirect sector like services would care. Why? Factories shut first (impact on…

What a weekend! Ceasefire between India and Pakistan Putin ready for closure with Ukraine Major movement on trade with China Edan Alexander is coming home When America deals from a position of strength, the world benefits
MOFCOM just published the deal: 1. Original 34% tariff remains, but 90 day pause for 24%; 2. All retaliatory tariffs are gone. What remains: 1. 10% tariffs from Apr 2; 2. 20% Fentanyl tariff; 3. 25% Trump 1 tariff. That's the same China would've got had it not retaliated.
I agree with most of the points made by @BaldingsWorld in this thread, except that I'd expect China to eventually cave in and start negotiating with the US, latest within 2 months or even sooner.
The US will maintain the original Trump 25% as well. So tariffs on china are aprox 50% in Total.
US to lower to 30% for 90days and China to lower to 10% for 90-days. Major de-escalation from embargo-level trade for both the US and China and that is good news for the rest of Asia and the world.
