With JW on the technical side of this, as would be anyone who understands the plumbing
Relatedly, if Fed wants to target rates, it has to pay interest on XS reserves somehow
I am a longtime Siegel fan. He is not just a stopped clock, prescient. However, he seems increasingly unhinged

I used to commute into Manhattan. I now work from home. And it is leaf blower hell here in stupid Westport CT.

There is no point in calling on the corporate media to act more honorably. It is hopeless. And as mentioned, just raises their prestige.
They must be discredited and replaced. That, not reform, should be the focus of people interested in securing a more informed public.

I am a broken record on this issue, but that is because I think it is an important one
When you imply that there is some breech of a free speech right that does not exists you create a false impression that the MSM MIGHT in some contexts be informative

I admire you.
You know it is not about YOU.

I am inclined to forgive those who recognize the errors of their ways. Michael Cohen, yes. Your typical slow learning never Trumper, no. Bill Kristol in particular should just stop speaking.
Away from that, Michael Cohen gave us Ben Stiller doing Michael Cohen. I will never not appreciate that.

This is quite the coincidence.
It was your very own self who just this very day mocked the idea of flailing right after encountering criticism from the left
Were you sub-posting this POS?
Either way, it sure does fit

I used AI or whatever I am supposed to call it for creating images that make fun of Trump.
This has become more difficult.
It now has its own form of PC.
From the right, as always.

And sorry to rant, but these are "public" funds. People who do not pay taxes still have a voice.
