Now is a good time to start worrying about Fed dollar swap lines. on.ft.com/4pPdCOz

@heidirediker.bsky.social and I wrote this for @alphaville.ft.com - US intervention in Argentina sends a worrying signal about politicizing US financial firepower. Are Fed swap lines next? IMF quotas should be increased to prepare for the next crisis. on.ft.com/4pPdCOz

U.S. support is crucial for Ukraine, and it is also a great opportunity for the U.S. in its self-interest. Fabulous piece by @heidirediker.bsky.social - The Art of a Good Deal: Ukraine’s Strategic Economic Opportunity for the United States on.cfr.org/4g8e5W5 via @CFR_org

Flashback: On the eve of his first inauguration 16 years ago tonight, Obama attended a bipartisan dinner honoring his defeated rival McCain. archive.nytimes.com/thecaucus.bl...

President Biden claiming Japan's investment in an American steel company is a threat to national security is a pathetic and craven cave to special interests that will make America less prosperous and safe. I'm sorry to see him betraying our allies while abusing the law.

Trump blew up the initial bipartisan spending deal and then tried to blame Biden. But it didn't work. Instead, dozens of House Republicans blocked his bid to avoid having to raise the debt ceiling in his early months in office. Michael Shear Maggie Haberman www.nytimes.com/2024/12/20/u...

My @bloomberglp.bsky.social Surveillance appearance this am, where AMH and I discussed dynamics around government shutdown, tariffs and European LNG (after Trump threatened tariffs). Great fun and a nice way to end the year before the holidays. Thanks @bloomberg.com youtu.be/GGzXp5dnu_E?...

My just released @brookings.edu post on Trump tariffs and why, when he says “tariffs are my favorite word and are costless” the threat needs to be taken seriously. www.brookings.edu/articles/the...

A good read by @davidjlynch.bsky.social on Trump's economic saber rattling aimed at protecting the US dollar from a threat that doesn't exist. Quoted here alongside Eswar Prasad, @marcmakingsense.bsky.social, Brad Setser, @dougrediker.bsky.social
