Paris has a way of slowing time and sharpening perspective. Walking these streets reminds me that beauty lives in details, and purpose grows with patience. 🇫🇷✨

"Here are the demands we all need to make: Use the National Guard to protect our citizens. Arrest agents who commit crimes. Charge police, National Guard, and ICE with crimes when they commit or refuse to stop them. . . . Do it now."

I remember @mlheggeness.bsky.social telling me about the idea for this book at an AEA meeting three (?) years ago. Excited to dig in (and not *only* for the Taylor references).

This isn’t just inside baseball. When investors doubt the Fed’s independence, they demand a higher “political risk” premium. That can push borrowing costs up for mortgages, car loans, and small businesses—without a single rate hike.

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

I still can’t get over the logic of “we don’t care what China and Russia do” paired with “we will invade Greenland and destroy NATO in order to stop China and Russia”
Leavitt: "The president was very clear last night. He said he wants to the US acquire Greenland because he feels that if we do not, then it will eventually be acquired or perhaps even hostilely taken over by China or Russia. Perhaps it would be in the best interest of Greenland to be part of the US"

NEW: GoFundMe strictly bans fundraisers for “the legal defense of financial and violent crimes,” yet is currently running one “to help pay for any legal services” for the ICE agent who killed Renee Nicole Good. Its conflict is not even the least bit contestable.
GoFundMe Ignores Own Rules by Hosting a Legal-Defense Fund for the ICE Agent Who Killed Renee Good
The fundraiser for the ICE agent in the Renee Good killing has stayed online in seeming breach of GoFundMe’s own terms of service, prompting questions about selective enforcement.

Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.
