On Wednesday, Treasury announced a $6 billion buyback of long-dated bonds.⁣
⁣
Markets responded by… pushing long-term interest rates higher.⁣
⁣
$6B is like trying to cool a furnace with an ice cube. We're gonna need more than that.

Trump now shouting his childlike insecurity and bottomless need for affirmation from the Kennedy Center rooftop. https://t.co/0hlp7FvlkA

[Amy Siskind @Amy_Siskind]

Looks like Trump and the GOP will defer to King Charles to be the grown up in this time of crisis, and convene US companies:

"the king will convene leaders from companies including Nvidia, Google, DeepMind, OpenAI and Anthropic, as well as government officials and others, “to discuss how A.I. can be developed and deployed in ways that benefit society.”"

Thanks you Mr King Charles for stepping up.

“The world is moving to a post-American order because of affirmative choices made by Donald Trump and the Republican Party. None of this was caused by external events or dialectical forces.”

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

Trump is a very sick sociopath endangering America and the entire world

[John Harwood @JohnJHarwood]

trusting Donald Trump is the dumbest thing a person could do

The degree to which Russia has compromised the Republican Party
is the great under-reported story of our time.

[John Harwood @JohnJHarwood]

some Democrats cheer Ossoff by saying he's moving past "when they go low, we go high"

but he isn't going low

he's just telling the truth

the Trump administration IS an obscenity, and saying so plainly is precisely what needs to be done

[Annie @AnnieForTruth]

I agree…

Under Obama, the US created 11.5 million jobs.
The Dow rose by 150%.
The percentage of Americans without health insurance fell by almost half.
Under Obama, Iran peacefully surrendered 98% of its enriched uranium and agreed to constant inspection.
