A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.
“Sometimes public service requires standing firm in the face of threats, which is what this unambiguously is”
How did the banker dude get here before the leaders of every self-mythologizing media organization or even Congress
You did not see this kind of statement from the Turkish central bank before Erdogan staffed it with sycophants because he had carefully laid the groundwork to do so without resistance over the course of 15 or so years. And then once he did do it, inflation went from 10% to 86% in two years.
WHAT LAW

the best evidence that the shooter was a right-winger is that the shot actually hit and then they got away
the cross-section of leftists who are crazy enough to do this and actually capable of planning and executing a successful military operation is at most like 3 people
An American flag flies above a street in Vilnius as police outriders surround hearses transporting the bodies of the US servicemen. 100s of locals are seen lining the street.
Incredibly moving. 1000s of Lithuanians lined the streets of the capital Vilnius yesterday to honor the four US soldiers killed on their soil.
As their bodies are repatriated to the US, their President will be nowhere to be seen, except on a Florida golf course.

Nintendo just delayed the Switch 2 preorders
tariffs weren't priced in, gamer riots start next week
However, your older videos hit that YouTube algorithm itch, so they still end up getting recommended a lot despite how old they are. It might be some weird broad audience impact idk 🤷
I like your new videos since they focus on Europe in a way that isn't sensational. These ended up being great starting points for me to understand European politics better, and they led me down literature rabbit holes.
I want a god damn apology from every single person that suggested I overreacted to the TD Cowen report and that Microsoft wasn't actually pulling back on anything

This looks like a "win probability" graph from a game where a team builds a huge lead then blows it in the last few seconds
The relative silence of America’s corporate leadership on all this tariff business stands out.
Fitch Ratings on Trump tariffs: “This is a game changer, not only for the US economy but for the global economy. Many countries will likely end up in a recession. You can throw most forecasts out the door, if this tariff rate stays on for an extended period of time."
Piper Sandler: “The tariffs came in higher/worse than we’d expected, so we are lowering our 2Q real GDP estimate from 0% to -1%. And given where the big tariff hikes are concentrated -- China, Vietnam, Taiwan, etc.-- the risks to consumer inflation are much higher than initially thought.”
someone on twitter cracked how they came up with these numbers: it's the US trade deficit divided by their exports
They used ChatGPT to do the calculations.
Trump is imposing a 10% tariff on the Heard and McDonald Islands.
The Heard and McDonald Islands are uninhabited.
Assuming we actually follow through? Manufacturing ~nonexistent. Food prices basically 30% higher. Unemployment in low teens
Big day for the type of guy who thinks "stock market is not the real economy" and "your line going up is meaningless"as their points are about to be thoroughly tested.
tim apple on suicide watch. You can't even use the vietnam or india factories because those got tariffs too lmao
I hope you are right. I hope our neighbors can stay strong and keep their jobs. I hope there isn’t any pain caused by the instability. I lost all hope on November 5th however
