Warsh Ties Himself in Knots to Please Trump. It Can’t Last Would-be Federal Reserve chair Kevin Warsh dismissed concerns that President Donald Trump was trying to undermine the central bank’s independence at his Senate confirmation hearing on Tuesday. Trump has weaponized the Justice Department against the central bank’s leadership and used his social media account to demand lower interest rates and lob schoolyard insults. But to hear Warsh tell it, the greater threat to independence is the Fed itself, which has supposedly lost credibility through so-ca

Would-be Fed chair Kevin Warsh blames the Fed, rather than Trump, for the threat to its independence. That's a convoluted argument (via Bloomberg Opinion)

Phillies need to get things turned around quickly.

This Isn't Trading. It's Theft from Your Retirement. Someone keeps making perfectly-timed bets right before the President speaks. The victims are your pension, your 401(k), and the country I took an oath to defend.

I don't know that it's the primary reason but Leo turning down Trump/ Vance literal engraved invitation to join them in US & instead prioritizing visiting African - in DJT words 'shit hole counties'- & esp going to Lampedusa on July 4 primed the pump of Trump reaction IMO.

I know they won't get rid of the weekly shows entirely, but they've *at least* got to get rid of the show/rankings heading into conference championship weekend.

Trump's DOJ is moving to wipe out the J6 convictions for 12 Proud Boys & Oath Keepers, including the founder sentenced to 18 years. Erasing accountability, one motion at a time. I break this all down and more in my Week In Review video on my YouTube page: youtu.be/hsI_hxHLNWo?...

Pro tip: Everytime there is a massive event using public transit at the sports complex (e.g. concert & Phillies playoff game the same night), SEPTA Patterson Av subway station gets slammed when the event finishes and they often just let everyone thru for free.
They just got AirBnb to pay for it. 🤠

Faculty Defect From Texas Publics, Citing Censorship Fed up with the state’s censoring of Plato, Joan of Arc and Romeo and Juliet, humanities professors are leaving Texas public institutions in pursuit of academic freedom.
