Large swaths of Trump's agenda are bad for capital, yet despite strong incentives to collectively mobilize AND significant power to exert their will, we have seen very little resistance from big business interests. Why?

Below, five non-mutually exclusive possibilities that have occurred to me:

"My inescapable conclusion has become that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people."

Written by an Ivy League professor who studies the Holocaust; who served in the IDF.

www.nytimes.com/2025/07/15/o...
My inescapable conclusion has become that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people. Having grown up in a Zionist home, lived the first half of my life in Israel, served in the I.D.F. as a soldier and officer and spent most of my career researching and writing on war crimes and the Holocaust, this was a painful conclusion to reach, and one that I resisted as long as I could. But I have been teaching classes on genocide for a quarter of a century. I can recognize one when I see one.

Speculation in crypto, in & of itself, isn't a financial stability problem. What makes it so is that deregulation + large global capital inflows + large banks speculating with that capital will trigger a 2008-style systemic banking crisis. This is a regular, predictable pattern across space & time.

I wasn't able to pick up the award in person, hence the picture of me holding it next to a tree looking pleased.

An excellent combination Matt! I would just add that the book is very flexible: pairs well with all known liquids. Thanks for your outstanding contribution! It is consistent with your much appreciated dedication to the project that you have gotten ahead of the editors on the promotion! :)

If climate finance only flows to what’s bankable, how do we fund what's actually necessary? My research contributes to the boon in evidence showing how derisking locks governments into private finance-oriented & ineffective transitions - leaving essential but unbankable sectors behind

#Britain’s populist surge isn’t born of rage, but neglect. What #ReformUK reaps in the local elections is not rebellion, but inheritance—from towns where policy forgot to tread and hope was for long left to rot.

Unhappy to confirm that the entire Historical Advisory Committee at the State Department received termination notices this afternoon (myself included). The HAC, set up by Congress, oversees the office that produces the FRUS series. history.state.gov/about/hac/in... 1/

I could be wrong about this but I really think most Americans do not want to be forced to “do their own research” about food & drug & product safety and would rather that the government agencies that have been sorting that all out for them for decades not be obliterated in the name of “efficiency.”

I had been doubtful that we were going to have a "this is the crisis moment" with Trump, as opposed to "everything about this is a destructive catastrophe."

But the Abrego Garcia case is the crisis moment.
