We're nearing 5 years of hikes/higher rates and inflation remains well above target. We had nearly a decade of ZIRP and inflation stuck to the floor the entire time.

Hate MMT all you want, but this is precisely what MMTers have been arguing would happen the entire time.

Since Trump’s election:
-Musk got $696 billion richer
-Musk became the 1st trillionaire
-SpaceX got $10 billion in Pentagon contracts
-Tesla & SpaceX paid $0 in federal income taxes
-Grok’s AI models were integrated into DoD

Musk’s better off than he was 2 years ago. Are you?

It’s true, and is the most significant, overlooked part of Haaretz probe in run up to Oct 7. And it’s not just Netanyahu who wanted war and rejected hostage release. It was entire govt and security apparatus. Not just b/c they wanted war but b/c they were in shock and chaos

Ms. Rachel on Gaza: “We all know what’s happening and it’s been ruled a genocide by all the big human rights organizations. I’ve read two genocide reports by the UN commissions and the last report was that they target kids. I’m always so confused why we can’t say Palestinians should be free. We all want to be free. Nobody should live in apartheid, nobody should not be able to leave where they’re from, nobody should be trapped, nobody should have different rights than others. It’s so important to say genocide right now because saying it will help move the world hopefully to stop it”

if progressive candidates believed i was antisemitic, they wouldn't campaign with me. if a progressive or socialist candidate was courting antisemites, i wouldn't support them. criticism of israel isn't antisemitic. warning that the false conflation between jews & israel endangers jews isn't antisemitic. its simply true.

[Evan Roth Smith @TheRealERS]

I am appalled and aghast at the unfair and bigoted vitriol being directed at Mayor Mamdani around 9/11. He was one of a million kids in New York who spent that day terrified, and who carries that experience with him today. I know because I was with him, and we were terrified together. None of the attacks on the Mayor or others like Ramzi Kassem survive even the slightest scrutiny beyond dredging the bottom of the barrel of anti-Muslim slander.

I disagree with the Mayor on many things, and have made those disagreements known publicly and privately. But there is absolutely no room for accusing a New Yorker who lived through those attacks of sympathy with the people who perpetrated them. End of story.

Now Lander responds to the comment: “We named our son after Marek Edelman, a leader of the Warsaw ghetto uprising. That’s how seriously I take the legacy of Jews who fought Nazis. I don’t know where Bruce Blakeman went to Hebrew school, but I was taught that ‘Never Again!’ means never again to anyone. Standing up for Palestinian human rights doesn’t make me any less proud to be Jewish, or any less serious about fighting antisemitism. New Yorkers, including Jewish New Yorkers, will resoundingly reject Blakeman’s far-right MAGA bigotry this November.”

James Dolan invited his friend Donald Trump to watch Game 3. In order to do that, they have to ban the organic, historically joyous parties happening outside MSG for fans who can't afford to be inside. Modern sports in a nutshell

[David Dennis Jr. @DavidDTSS]

This the quintessential story of how sports reflects the state of the world. Thousands of fans have waited for Game 3 their whole lives and now they’re priced out of entering the game and can’t even celebrate outside because one billionaire gets to attend the game for free.

3) In a story about Mayor Mamdani's relationship with Jewish New Yorkers, the Times utterly fails to mention that-- despite a budget deficit -- he fulfilled his campaign promise to increase hate crime prevention funding by over 800%.
