The Fed relies on data and objective reality. Kevin Warsh’s refusal to acknowledge the 2020 election shows he’s more interested in politics than facts.

Elon Musk has been summoned to Paris, where investigators are looking into allegations of misconduct related to the social media platform X, including the spread of child sexual abuse material and deepfake content.
Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet.
This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.

“Michigan’s elections are safe and secure, and any attempt to suggest otherwise is an attempt to take away Michiganders’ constitutional right to vote"
The shortest verse in the Bible is “Jesus wept”
It’s as if the Iran war was fought to sustain the Russian economy. Lifting sanctions for Russians does nothing for Americans. It just makes it easier for Russia to continue its war in Ukraine.
More insane corruption that no one in this DOJ will do anything about.
To adapt the FDA language...

NEW: Republicans (and Fetterman) just BLOCKED a war powers resolution in the Senate. Rand Paul voted with all Democrats. Senate Republicans (and Fetterman) are now on record in support of this illegal war.
NEW on MS NOW: Rep. Jamie Raskin has introduced a bill that seeks to kickstart the removal of Trump through the 25th Amendment — a longshot effort that, while unlikely to succeed, aims to put renewed focus on the president's mental fitness and recent rhetoric.
Turned on NBC. They talked about “President tipping a DoorDash driver $100”.
This woman participated in GOP ads before playing other roles. There is no DoorDash deliveries to the Oval Office. Please exercise proper judgement when consuming news.

‼️ Zelenskyy: “The future is here on the battlefield, and Ukraine is creating it. For the first time in this war, an enemy position was captured exclusively by unmanned ground robotic systems and drones. The occupiers surrendered, and this operation was completed without any infantry involvement.”

Hey Rep. Tony Gonzales, what’s the delay?
Swalwell has announced his resignation from Congress. It’s impossible not to ask why Texas Republican Tony Gonzales hasn’t done the same. And why the GOP doesn’t insist the Epstein files, which repeatedly mention the head of their party, be fully released.
Trump as pope.
Trump on a mission from God.
Trump as gold statue.

Peter Magyar’s Tisza, which scored a landslide win over Viktor Orban's Fidesz, shot to prominence following a controversial presidential pardon in a child sex abuse case.
It’s like Hungarians didn’t even *read* Hillbilly Elegy.
The end of Viktor Orbán’s autocratic regime is a victory not just for Hungary, but for people who value democracy around the world. Congratulations to Tisza, to incoming leader Péter Magyar, and to Hungarians everywhere.
May Victor Orbán simply be the first in a string of countries engaging in overdue housecleaning by kicking their authoritarian leaders to the curb.
