Justin Wolfers@justinwolfers.bsky.social · 2mo agoTrump ripped up NAFTA, replaced it with USMCA, then ripped that up too. Markets have little reason to trust this president's signature. So Canada should judge any deal by whether it serves their interests now. https://newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/should-canada-answer-trumps-tariffs
Once again, Canadian wildfire smoke has illegally crossed the US border, causing whiny foot-stomping by US politicians. Resident Canadian cheerleader @todmaffin.com responds in the most un-Canadian* of ways. 🤣🇨🇦🙄 youtube.com/shorts/zB2ZH... *Only applies if you've never actually met a Canadian.
Canada is burning, and America is complaining about the view.

I report on Russian terrorist attacks against civilians every day. It seems to me that because the casualty numbers of individual attacks are not "shocking" on their own, people and news outlets just look the other way. But let’s count together how many people Russia killed today alone:

"Figures don't lie, but liars figure" There is no inherent neutrality in the stock market at the moment. Momentum investing: Cloak worn by groups of market dominant insider factions, driving direction. Each round increasingly fuels the next gambit. A presidential trumpet sure helps the grift.
Uplifting news clip from the battlefield frontline of Ukraine. 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 🇺🇦
Anton Gerashchenko@antongerashchenko.bsky.social · 5mo agoI can’t let go of this story - and these photos. A dog and a cat were evacuated from the front line by Ukrainian Defenders using a drone. The animals flew more than 12 km and are now safe. If they made it, then we can do so much more - and we will.

When we import phosphorus, we get 98% of it from PERU. Not Iran. So the reason we've had trouble getting those is TARIFFS. farmdocdaily.illinois.edu/2025/07/us-f...

The Dow was at 43,488 when Trump took office. It just hit 50,000. So if you had invested $43,488 in the US, you would now have $50,000. But if you had invested the same amount in the rest of the world, you would now be worth $60,000. Lemme do a expla-youtube-nation www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYL5...
"Dow 50,000" Sound Nice. Until Justin Wolfers Shows You That U.S. Markets Are Coming 21st Out of 23.
What does “Dow 50,000” actually tell you—anything about the economy, or just that a number got bigger? Dow 50,000 is a milestone, not a measurement. The level of the Dow is basically arbitrary: it’s…
