#WalterRussellMead provides a context for the world #Biden and we now inhabit.
America’s power to deter other states and terror organizations from taking steps that destabilize the world is fading. That is why so many crises are erupting in so many places. If Biden doesn’t stop the decline, things could get a lot worse very fast. wsj.com/articles/a-wor…

Amen Noah. If China confirms the position that former "USSR Republics" are not now independent nations, then Kazakstan, Kyrgistan and Tajikstan, which share a border with China, will wonder what China's ambitions include.

#Goodnews! What happens next? We see if the case stays on appeal before the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals or if there is a petition for a writ of certiorari to bring review directly to the Supreme Court. #Not_over_yet.

The @federalreserve has, until recently, held interest rates so low that people simply didn't want to save. In turn, that meant not enough robust investment spending those savings.

A statistic that blows my mind every time I see it: In 1970, the median 25-year-old male worker earned $39,400 annually (in 2019 dollars). Almost 50 years later, in 2019, the corresponding figure was $38,000. What explains this incredible stagnation? We still don't fully know.
Some tech replaces us (think factories with few workers) and some tech helps us earn more (think electricity). Hear @DrDaronAcemoglu lay it out at youtube.com/@thepoliticalc…. Let's rebuild #middleclass using the right tech, not the wrong tech.

Wild thought: maybe the voters who are angry about the Trump indictment are committed partisans who always turn out for Republicans?
Pre-election chatter that Trump indictment could juice GOP performance in Wisconsin didn't happen - this showing looks worse than the D margin in the first round Just like back in August when the Mar-a-Lago search didn't appear to help Rs in some House specials later that month

For years, private Medicare insurers have been gouging taxpayers and denying care for seniors and people with disabilities. @CMSGov is making progress, but these delays are a step backward. There is a lot more work to do to curb these abusive practices. nytimes.com/2023/03/31/hea…
I was delighted to visit @NurturyBoston in Mission Hill this week! This early education center delivers for families every day. Congress should pass my bill to help providers like Nurtury and cap child care costs at $10 a day for half of American families.
A lot of good insights in @ezraklein’s latest supply-side progressivism piece: nytimes.com/2023/04/02/opi… But I’m a bit skeptical of this point: A lot of chip manufacturers will absolutely be big fish employers in their states & localities — like Micron in Syracuse, NY
