Gold and German bunds, instead of US Treasury bonds, are now the safe asset. Return of bond vigilantes, and “I want to be reincarnated as the bond market” (Carville). End of the unipolar moment.

The attack on Josh Shapiro and his family during the first night of Passover is chilling, tbh. Maybe it has nothing to do with them being Jewish. But we don’t know that right now. The historical echoes are bad, either way.

Most TV we watch is soccer so we don't see tons of commercials and we mute those, but the last set of halftime commercials I saw were Gambling Beer Trump PAC lying (saving us money) Gambling Trump PAC lying (Biden destroyed the economy) Wondering why the US has so many "low information voters?"

Many things could be said here and were the first time this paragraph went around. As far as black is concerned, I've never capitalized the B myself. The have been zero difficulties arising from this choice. A lot of this amounts to people thinking their own cowardice is a grand social problem.

A huge honor to get to write something with my hero @naomiaklein.bsky.social. We wish it was a happier topic, but it's an urgent one. We dove deep into the apocalyptic fervor of the far right to issue a warning about the rise of End Times Fascism. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Simultaneously decimating the US federal government's state capacity and doing stuff like this does not strike me as a great move, so much so that I checked it was real (it is: economictimes.indiatimes.com/nri/latest-u...) - just reiterating that I now will not be recommending grad school in the US.

One President wildly exceeded his authority by forgiving some student loans; a different President barely scratched the surface of his authority by disappearing anyone he pleases without trial to a foreign gulag. Constitutional law is a serious intellectual enterprise.
