Donald Trump said he had decided to slap 25 per cent tariffs on imports from the European Union, as he lashed out at the bloc, saying it “was formed to screw the United States”. “We have made a decision and we’ll be announcing it very soon. It’ll be 25 per cent."

The U.S. team can still win, if Mike Pence has the courage.

An amazing resignation letter to Bove from an AUSA who worked on the Adams case. Money quote: “I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.”

Everyone thinks Elon Musk is a brilliant genius until he starts talking about something they know about.

Eggs have done better than crypto under Trump. Just saying. on.ft.com/4b1ylrM

People just have no critical reasoning skills and believe any bit of crap put out by Kremlin bots. Glad Charles isn’t in charge.

Bessent is also the guy that spent all last fall accusing Sec Yellen of manipulating the long end lower by under-issuing duration, then got confirmed and immediately said "yeah okay never mind, more of the same" so disingenuous is probably the right term.

The Go-Go’s “Our Lips Are Sealed” peaks at #20 today in 1981. “That song is really unique in its structure and .. melodically, it’s such a fun song,” said Belinda Carlisle. “And of course, when you get the reaction of the audience to the song when you do it live, it makes it even better.”

Me looking at that first Friday afternoon beer.

For some reason, I cant post the link. But it's on YouTube "how to make money in a new investment landscape, Russell Napier" It's @kevinmuir.bsky.social's fault - he told me to watch it

The 🐿️ has been squatting on this handle for a while but it's time to say hi. Hey, @kevinmuir.bsky.social is this the social thingy where it's ok not to think Musk is some kind of Messiah? Just double checking!
