Politicians who later become congressional leaders trade stocks like everyone else ... until they ascend to power.

After ascension, their portfolios beat peers by 47 (!!!) percentage points a year through trades timed around bills and firms that later get government contracts.

A theme from May’s CPI: price cuts across the board on things that consumers can skimp on, ie clothes, electronics, personal care, recreation goods and services.

Forget OER and primary rents, let’s talk about something more interesting: men’s underwear — or the lack thereof —of inflation. Biggest price cuts in 6 months.

Meanwhile, men’s suits — biggest price inflation since spring 2022.

Do men not need to buy underwear with their suits when they go to interviews or with in office?

@wangzhian8848 具备浪漫主义基础的婚姻在西方也就几百年的历史，大多数人类婚配在现在看来都是极其违反人权的。但这并不妨碍在如今的文明世界把贩卖人口作为重罪，更不会因为是流行民风而放弃法治。按王局的观点，中国应该尊重民风不反缠足，美国应该尊重南方蓄奴

A statement from the BBC on what happened to me in Shanghai last night while doing my job.

I understand at least one local national was arrested after trying to stop the police from beating me.

Thanks very much for the kind words and messages of concern.

@andrei_mntn They must have been super proud of their skills in dealing with domestic censorship to pull the same tricks everywhere. I guess even censorship needs sort of competition or feedbacks otherwise the quality just goes down and down
