This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.
Jerome Powell: "This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions—or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation."

Sorry to be a broken record but it's nuts to me that the New York Times would write an entire article summarizing a court ruling and refuse to provide a link to said ruling. This is a disservice to readers. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/01/n...

Here's the ruling: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

A lot of people fixate on this admittedly badass line from DISCO ELYSIUM, but forget that the Deserter is a villain. He's a weird old incel whose delusions led to a murder and got union members killed. The bourgeois ARE human, but thrive off an inhuman system. Recognizing that humanity is crucial.
