This man has a Ph.D. in economics from the University of Pennsylvania and is likely to be the next chair of the Federal Reserve.

He knows exactly what he's saying.
Hassett: "On one of the Sunday shows, the anchor criticized the fact Walmart said the Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper by about $10. Then he said, 'Oh yeah, but they substituted generic stuff,' as if having a generic something is a crime for ordinary folks! It shows how out of touch these people are."

There are less than a 1,000 US based billionaires and the Trump administration works on behalf of a few hundred of them.

Trump doesn’t seem to care or notice the people that voted for him are not on board and suffering so he can give them what he wants.
Lutnik is back bullying the EU on behalf of the Technocrats.

He said “The EU must loosen tech regulations if it wants the US to lower tariffs on its steel and aluminum”

He also said Brussels should “solve” outstanding cases against Google, Microsoft and Amazon.

NEW: ICE has torn up its $180M cap on a proposed immigrant-tracking program and is now guaranteeing private surveillance firms at least $7.5M each, with potential payouts reaching $281M per vendor. The change signals a shift from “pilot” to full-scale outsourcing of street-level investigative work.

there's that now-famous internet line about how climate change means watching clips of climate disasters on people's phones until you're the one filming it, and it feels like there's some parallel about watching fascist deportation goon squad videos until it's filmed on the streets you recognize

If you are on BBC live, you know what to do

(I don't even think this statement would be controversial among experts. He's openly monetizing the office and making literally billions of dollars!)
NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history."

BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

Trump’s Fury at BBC Gets Unnerving Results with Pro-MAGA Edit Stunner
First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

BREAKING: new emails CONFIRM my reporting that there are TRAINING VIDEOS instructing FBI personnel on how to review the Epstein Files. Plus, a lot more…
The emails reveal the special training given to FBI personnel working on what it called the “Epstein Transparency Project.” In some instances they referred to it as the “Special Redaction Project.” The training entailed PowerPoint slide presentations and video instruction on how to review the files.

The stock market's gains are being overwhelmingly driven by seven Big Tech companies who have invested heavily in AI, which has made tech oligarchs even wealthier.

But when that AI bubble bursts, the rest of us will be stuck holding the bag.

For Celia Monreal, a former Trump voter, one Senate vote can mean the difference between keeping health coverage or going uninsured.

“Considering the bills and everything else, we wouldn’t be able to afford a $1,500 a month increase for health insurance,” Monreal told journalist Chris Vazquez.
