Best way to stop the conquest of Greenland is to point out the likelihood of two additional Democratic senators.

The FT writes: Jamie Dimon warns Trump administration’s attacks on Fed could boost inflation Sounds like many of these people thought they could get a dragon elected and then control the dragon. But it turns out (as one could know from history, literature, myths) that dragons can’t be controlled.

First Amendment does not protect protesters but it does protect CSAM social media apps.

I have a new paper w Andrea Prat & Jake Spitz. We show that Republican appointed Supreme Court Justices vote in favor of the richer party by over 70% today, as compared to D’s at 30%. In the 1950s and both were at 50%. This strong trend may contribute to rising inequality. www.nber.org/papers/w34643

"Looking at the share of a justice's decisions that favor the wealthy over the course of our analysis period, we see that the court becomes more and more polarized along partisan lines." www.nber.org/papers/w34643 American democracy is truly in dire straits...

After this, the EU should absolutely proceed on the assumption that Trump meant what he said about Greenland. Nothing is off the table anymore.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

Skiing, an activity that Paul calls outdated, fixes this.

MAGA: Sweden is in the midst of civil war, on the cusp of civilisational erasure Swedes: on your paid holiday, please borrow some free skates so you can enjoy our public rink in the middle of the idyllic square in the heart of our walkable city.

I'm watching his speech and it's wild he has no idea what's going on in the country. 54% of Americans say they won't be able to pay for health care next year. 25% skipped a meal because they couldn't afford it. The economy is good for billionaires. That's all he cares about.

The brilliant Kate Ho has passed away. She was an amazing economist and a genuinely kind human being. Her work shaped how we think about healthcare markets and her generosity touched everyone lucky enough to know her. The profession and the world are poorer without her.

Just generally I wish there was more enforcement around scams and fraud. Maybe it’s a drop in the bucket, but enforcing the laws that protect our most vulnerable Americans from financial ruin seems like it’s always a good idea.

FIFA awarding a "peace prize" to Trump would be so absolutely on-brand, a truly genius innovation.

Can lawyers tell me if regular people are allowed to fight unidentified muggers if they do not know whether they are CBP or criminals?

It's been a few days since Trump announced his "deal" with Xi. It's now clear that Trump got fleeced. America gave up lots and got nothing. It's a story you should know bc few things matter more than the U.S.-China relationship. 1/ So here's a🧵

I wonder which position in the Trump Administration Andrew will now pick?

The Netherlands finished burying all of its telecom and low/medium voltage power lines more than 20 years ago. When you look out at a Dutch street your view is not obstructed by overhead crap. Why is America still a primitive mess and why aren’t Americans even trying to fix it

Whoever is the next Democratic presidential candidate should vow to tear down the hideous ballroom and rebuild the Rose Garden, I bet there are a lot of votes in that

Reforming the GOP is indeed the best way out of America's crisis in the long term. The scary thing is that no one has even the outlines of a credible plan for how to do that

The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.

Why are Starbucks tea bags made of plastic? Am I right about this? It seems so and I don’t want to be drinking microplastics. Who could fix this?

Biofuels are a bad climate solution and a huge waste of land, food and millions in subsidies. Burning crops for fuel only pushes us further away from our climate goals. But biofuel production is only growing across the planet. 4/

Should the New York Times be sold to Pennysaver and its editors sent to work in Amazon warehouses? It depends on who you ask.

What people can do right now: cancel their Disney+ streaming subscriptions. Disney is making an economic calculation here. Thus far -- they see only the benefits from cancelling Kimmel. We the media-consuming people have the power to make them see the costs.

“It could put loyalties at risk” says Bloomberg. Really? American farmers and Republicans are like Carlie Brown and the proverbial football. They always come back so they can always be exploited.
