Why are they still trying so hard to get Trump to like them? It's a pointless endeavor, possibly even harmful.

Probably once again a scheme to enrich MAGA elites at the expense of everyone else.
The amount of possibilities when you don't have a working judicial system anymore ...

"Meine Damen und Herren, bitte erschrecken sie nicht. Wir erreichen Köln Hbf zwei Minuten früher als geplant." 🥳
Fünf Minuten später steht die Bahn 10 minuten auf der Brücke, wegen eines defekten Signals 🙈
Interesting piece on interest parity and US government debt:
"... at almost all maturities, markets are exacting higher borrowing costs on the US government despite demand for the dollar."

5. Die CDU hat ein Ideologieproblem. Die CDU ist nicht pragmatisch, sondern agiert ideologiegetrieben. Diese Politik der CDU auf Bundesebene ist genau das, was ihr in BaWü geschadet hat, weil es Wechselwähler vertreibt und Lager vereint. #lifestyleteilzeit #teuer-heizen-gesetz #zahnersatz (6/x)

Neoclassical economics emphasizes that international trade acts like an improvement in technology that is mutually beneficial. Tariffs are a tax on this trading technology, from Ralph Ossa and @reddingecon.bsky.social www.nber.org/papers/w34915
"If confirmed, a Green win would mark a striking victory for the party and its candidate Cem Özdemir, who would be well placed to become the first German state premier of Turkish descent in a coalition with the CDU."

Disinformation joining in globally together with war, famine, pestilence and death..
Russia and the Trump administration turned #disinformation into a global reality.
The truth is just optional..
Das Problem ist, dass in den Städten schneller ausgezählt wird als auf dem Land (warum weiß ich nicht mehr).
Da die CDU auf dem Land stärker ist gewinnt sie leider im Laufe des Abends gegenüber den Grünen meistens noch etwas...
My Ukrainian friend Ivan from Kyiv gifted me these colorful socks made in Ukraine by the Lviv Socks Cooperative. If you can navigate its website in Ukrainian, you too can be the proud owner. Buying products made in Ukraine helps Ukraine win.

Stop the count! 🙈
Allerdings ist das Ding noch nicht in trockenen Tüchern. Die CDU hat, glaube ich mich zu erinnern, auch bei der letzten Wahl hinten raus mehr zugelegt.
Wow, phänomenales Ergebnis für die Grünen und Cem Özdemir!
Allerdings auch nicht ganz überraschend nach dem Momentum der letzten Wochen.
Und 17,7 Prozent für die AfD in einem westdeutschen Land ist schon alarmierend/schockierend.
"US Treasuries are losing their status as the world’s go-to asset in times of crisis — the result, investors say, of erratic geopolitical and economic policy and the erosion of institutions under Trump."

Alles war früher besser:
Wohnfläche pro Person:
1960er: ca. 23 m²
1970er: ca. 26 m²
1990er: ca. 37 m²
Heute: ca. 49 m²
Und ja, unterschiedliche Quellen und Berechnungsmethoden machen vergleiche manchmal schwer, aber es ist Fakt, dass Leute heute wesentlich mehr Wohnfläche haben.
Most policy makers wouldn't design such legislation in the first place.
Right-wing extremism is actual the original cancel-culture.
Wokism is actually just a way to cancel right-wing cancel-culture.
Excellent piece!

"While the Trump administration has repeatedly told Europeans that it wants them to shoulder the bulk of the continent's conventional defense, the U.S. doesn't want that to come at the expense of American defense firms."
"European bourses have benefited from big investors’ desire to diversify away from Wall Street and its massive technology sector, which has been buffeted this year by concerns over a potential AI bubble."

"restaurants and other businesses that cater to low-income Americans are experiencing reduced sales as their customers increasingly struggle to make ends meet, while businesses that cater to affluent consumers enjoy resilient spending bolstered by booming stock markets."
Rubio sagt bei der #MSC inhaltlich nichts anderes als Trump, aber in freundlichere Worte verpackt.
Die Reaktion darauf zeigt, wie groß der Wunsch ist, dass im transatlantischen Verhältnis einfach wieder alles wird, wie es mal war. So wird das mit der europäischen Souveränität nichts.
The fact that large parts of the German media landscape “reported” on this White nationalist fever dream of a speech by Rubio as merely reaffirming the transatlantic alliance is so far removed from reality that it truly makes me speechless.
Valid point 🙈
What happened to #FreeSpeech?

"Contrary to what some may say, woke, decadent Europe is not facing civilisational erasure. In fact, people still want to join our club and not just fellow Europeans. In Canada, I was told over 40% of Canadians have an interest in joining the EU"
