What can history teach us about what happens when a populist strongman with an idiosyncratic taste for low interest rates undermines central bank independence?

Let’s see, Venezuela take over, and wanting to take Greenland and at home he’s storming states with shock troops. Clearly we have an idiot in office that will kill us all.

This is what my drawing was like when I was a 20-yr-old. I still have these and other examples done when living in Portsmouth UK in the late '60s, early '70s, travelling by bus to draw in woods and fields around the Hampshire Downs.

Tillis is spot on. The Senate can't confirm a Trump toady to succeed Powell at the Fed. The rest of the game is now out in the open, and it doesn't end well.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
