Hard to beat this discussant slide by force-of-nature @mushfiq-econ.bsky.social after I spoke at the IMF last Friday

This is a crucial point. Still relatively few economists are explicitly trained on this point, and too many econ papers show it.
Heading home after a great conference in Luxembourg! Many thanks to the organizers and the inspiring keynote speakers @marimendola.bsky.social @essobecker.bsky.social
Don't miss it next year!
What a lovely event with so many outstanding scholars!! There is beauty everywhere..if you only look (cit.)❣️🌷💛

Well there it is. I received this yesterday.
Data paid for and owned by the US public, now impounded and inaccessible—illegally, arbitrarily, indefinitely.
Anyone seeking ‘efficiency’ would at most seek an alternative data host.
Anyone seeking to suppress academic speech would… do this.
📌Call for applications out! 👀👀

Many of the world's best and brightest young people once came to study in the United States, fueling our global innovation powerhouse.
They now know that if they come, they can be seized by secret police off the street, at any moment—without charges, trial, or appeal, with absolute discretion.
What the fuck
"Tariffs alone will not reduce the trade deficit or restore manufacturing jobs."
"Even worse, tariff threats distract us from the true sources of America's social problems and the policies that could help."

This is an illegal action by the US Administration. USAID is Congressionally mandated as an independent agency. It is not a small office of the State Department.
Those now choosing to ignore their duty to our laws, whether Conservative or Liberal, will miss them when they have lost meaning.

It’s a model that could scale to other groups or countries facing similar challenges. 🌍
