Pretty remarkable that Trump has installed someone on the Saudi dole — Jared Kushner collects millions in fees from the Saudis every year — in a key role for America's most sensitive and consequential foreign policy negotiations (Gaza, Ukraine), and it is largely TREATED AS A NON-STORY

'Trevor McFur in the Crescent Galaxy' released on this day in 1993.
One of the Atari Jaguar's two games available at launch, serving as a decidedly unspectacular showcase for the console's capabilities. A lack of in-game music foretold a consistent trend in the system library.

Yeah, "Trump crashes the dollar" has haunted me more than "Trump launches the nukes" for the past 10 months, because I think the former is more likely to occur and the destruction will be multi-generational, probably unrecoverable.
The end of dollar hegemony will transform U.S. debt from a fiscal drag into a high-yield fusion bomb.
For decades dollarization has generated structural demand for U.S. treasuries, depressing the interest rates the U.S. needs to offer to service its debt.

one thing that I think we really don't think about is if Trump fucks up America's macro privileges or role in the international system and Americans are forced to end up dealing with a economic system that doesn't allow for the same old fiscal fixes as before
