Noted.

On @BBCRadio4 Start the Week at 9am tomorrow morning with Tom Sutcliffe, alongside @Jeremy_Hunt and @PatrickFoulis. I'll be talking about my new book The Common Good Economy, how economics lacks a coherent theory of the common good, and why that matters for how we design an economy that works for people and planet.

Tune in at 9am on @BBCRadio4. Link in replies.

@PDM1236810 @ronmortgageguy Rooming houses would violate many, many municipal residential codes. Why? Would you want to live next to one?

Amazing spin. She's squeezing through a very dubious hole here.

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

Pam Bondi's opening statement on her mishandling of the Epstein files blames her replacement, Acting AG Todd Blanche:

"I did not lead every aspect of this effort or conduct that document review myself. I delegated oversight over this process to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche."

Yorkshire terriers were also recruited to control trench rats.

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

It's estimated that hundreds of thousands of cats were deployed in the trenches in WWI, aboard war ships and during WWII.

They served as ratters and gas detectors but above all they were the mascots of the troops, giving comfort, reminding soldiers of home, family, and love.

"jumping the v" his how Harry Litman describes Trump's lawsuit against the IRS for damages.

Essentially, the plaintiff is in bed with the defendant, ergo there is no adversity, which is a fundamental attribute of any legal case.

Canada: 10 provinces

I thought the horse was going to illustrate the raised-hoof/step trick.—

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

The practical intelligence of this horse that was tired of being kicked.

Yanis Varoufakis on Scott Bessent:

"He is a poacher turned gamekeeper."

@RealRickRule @mtnscrambler1 Oh, ok. Please explain how the St. Lawrence Seaway was financed. Or the two world wars.—

[Toad @MrToad5]

@yanisvaroufakis What difference does it make?

The sort of difference that a crack in a minor plumbing pipe makes, no?

UAE is the 8th largest oil extractor in the world (per Wiki).

It's resignation from OPEC makes a difference.

Like, how can you disagree?

[Toad @MrToad5]

High praise from an ideological opponent.🤔

[Scott Robertson @sarobertson_]

Erin O'Toole: "I think the Prime Minister has a very good handle on international business negotiations and I do think compared to PM Trudeau, PM Carney really has reset the tone of relations between Canada and the US."

[Toad @MrToad5]

@ntqrt @liberal_party @NDP High praise from an ideological counterpart.

[Toad @MrToad5]

@wbmosler Thank you. I just slapped myself in the forehead.

[Toad @MrToad5]

@RealRickRule free lunch = Pierre Poilievre humiliatingly losing his seat and then 2nd chancing in safest PC riding going, in Alberta, thousands of kms from home. And you have a problem with free lunches?

Give me a break.—

Idiocracy.

If Trump's GOP isn't thoroughly repudiated this November, the U.S.A is over.

🔥🚨HARD NEWS: Here is lost footage of Donald Trump’s 2004 SNl Sketch titled “Donald Trump’s House of Wings.” This sketch is still missing from all SNL DVDs and streams.

@RealRickRule Yes. Many Americans go to Mexico for cheaper and effective govt-subsidized treatments.
