The economy = weird place where everything costs too much, but every politician insists it’s fine because a chart somewhere is pointing up.

"Tedium Restraints"

Will share presently about the role of reverse-mergers in graft, theft.

Now, I am considering "tedium restraints."

My favorite book introduced me to them.

"Tedium restraints" are your pointless, meaningless, mindless--though very, very focused--ruminations.

How is the PRESIDENT AND SECRETARY OF STATE AT A UFC FIGHT in Miami while war negotiations affecting the world economy are falling apart.

PROBABLY PLAY GOLF tomorrow too.

I know a lot about the law too. I’ve seen every episode of Law and Order.

It is time! Remove him! Then investigate all his handlers and enablers!

Minnesota Kicks Off Legal Battle With Trump Administration to Hold ICE Shooters Accountable With the Trump administration refusing to identify agents or share evidence, the case is a game of constitutional chicken: states’ rights versus federal immunity.

The fight to hold ICE shooters responsible so far is focused on three fatal shootings, but prosecutors in Minneapolis have opened criminal investigations into 14 additional cases of potentially unlawful behavior by federal agents during Operation Metro Surge.

Good morning
Even in uncertain times, the quiet work of showing up still matters.
Democracy isn’t restored all at once; it’s rebuilt in small acts of courage, care, and participation.
Today, let’s take one step that keeps it alive. Choose a focus & do one small thing! It's enough!

Trump's speech for the White House Easter egg roll: "One year ago -- a little bit more -- our country was dead. We had a dead country. We had an administration that didn't know what the hell they were doing. Today we have the hottest country anywhere in the world."

Trump: "The Iranian people will fight back as soon as they know they're not gonna be shot, and as soon as they can get weapons. If they had weapons that were going the other way, Iran would give up in two seconds."

@bluestormcomin1.bsky.social Thank you for including me.

Trump sent guns to Iranian protesters through Kurdish militias — The Telegraph President claims that Kurds must have kept weapons dispatched by US to demonstrators

How strange is this?

Trump casually admitted on Fox on the phone on Easter Sunday that the US secretly sent “a lot of guns” to Iranian protesters through the Kurds who he then says… “kept them”.

Totally normal.

No matter how much the orange felon tries, he’ll never be able to bomb his way out of the Epstein Files or away from the allegations of him raping children.

Never stop talking about the Epstein Files.

All of the major players in this investment ecosystem are vulnerable. Private-equity firms are being squeezed on both ends by generative AI: During the coronavirus pandemic, they bought up software companies, which are now plummeting in value because AI is expected to eat their lunch. Meanwhile, private equity’s new investment strategy, data centers, is also falling apart because of AI. Blackstone, Blue Owl, and the like are sinking huge sums into data-center construction with the assumption that lease payments from tech companies will pay for their debt. In order to pay for their investments, private-equity companies raised money from major financial institutions—but now the viability of those lease payments is coming into question as the hyperscalers’ cash flow is strained. “There’s a reason to think we’re seeing some of the same 2008 dynamics now,” Brad Lipton, a former senior adviser at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and now the director of corporate power and financial regulation at the Roosevelt Institute, told us. “Everyone’s getting tied up together. Banks are lending money to private credit, which in turn lends it elsewhere. That amps up the risk.”
