It took four years longer than Trump planned, but the January 6th insurrection ultimately succeeded after all. This was due to three main reasons: the cowardice of feckless Republicans in Congress; the greed of all-powerful billionaires; and disinformation fed to voters by Fox News and social media.

Simply amazing that Taylor Swift gave $197 million in bonuses to everyone who helped her pull off the 149 shows across five continents.

In case anyone was wondering, that goes for National Secrets as well.

A federal judge just blocked Kroger's $24.6B acquisition of Albertsons.
Four corporations control 70% of retail grocery sales in America. Kroger and Albertsons are two of those corporations.
Less competition means more opportunity to price gouge.
This deal was a rotten egg.

The NY Attorney General has REJECTED Trump's bid to dismiss his $500M civil fraud judgment post-election. The AG stated that Trump's presidency doesn't shield him from civil litigation over non-official conduct, per the Constitution and multiple court precedents.

This is a baffling article, seeing a contradiction where none exists. Immigrants appear to be complements, not substitutes for native-born workers. So deporting many of them drives up the wages of the remaining immigrants, but reduces real wages for the native-born 1/ www.ft.com/content/2bb6...
Economists need to get their story straight on immigration
Focusing on the impact on the wages or employment levels of native workers is too narrow
