Our flags are lowered at half-mast in memory of Pope Francis. His legacy will always inspire us toward justice, peace, and compassion

Incredibly saddened to read of Pope Francis’ death. He always struck me as a gentle, humble man whose faith and love for humanity shone through. Such people are the best examples for their faith. RIP gentle Francis.

Goldman Sachs has just put out a warning about a full US-China financial decoupling which would wipe out $2.5 trillion. US investors might be forced to sell $800 billion in Chinese stocks, while China could liquidate $1.7 trillion in US assets, including Treasuries and equities. Boom.

What is the offer here. Presumably it has to be implied insider information which the investment account managers are relayed and trade on. Or is it just bullshit/branding, using no more than the guesses any informed analyst would make about companies that benefit from the tariff policy evolution?

BREAKING: 15 people charged with gambling offences following the gamblegate scandal of the general election, including former Conservative MP and aide to Rishi Sunak, Craig Williams. The sleaze scandal was one of the final nails in the Tory govt’s coffin.

“He made 2.5 million today and he made $900 million. That’s not bad.” Sounds like market manipulation to me. That’s bad.

The tariff policy changes every ten minutes. What a joke. It’s nuclear grade incompetence that would be laughable except they’re ruining people’s lives for sport. Just shameful.
