Made my tight connection in Amsterdam! I was worried about the EU's new digital Entry/Exit System, but I think landing at 530am local time meant the lines were minimal. Next stop, Prague!

Off to Europe! Starting with a few days exploring Prague, Vienna, and Budapest before heading to the EARIE conference in Germany to present some of my research. Looking forward to good food, lots of walking, seeing some new places, and eventually presenting some very interesting work!

False. However, you are the only country stupid enough to elect a convicted felon and accused pedophile, whose only claim to fame is that as a third rate reality TV star.

I'm sick of "funny" phone news articles and announcements. The world is crazy enough now, everything is believable. What if Trump announces he is using nukes on Iran. Should we believe him?

I knew the state-level report was going away, but I thought the national would still be published. I used this data for my introductory macroeconomics course. It would be a shame (for much bigger reasons) if it's no longer available!

If this were true, then the Fed should be raising interest rates to combat inflation and prevent the economy from overheating (AD>AS). Any genuine economist would know this... Instead the administration is pushing for lower rates. I leave figuring out the discrepancy as an exercise for the reader.

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality. I don't know how to yell any louder.

The more this settles in, the more its danger and gravity becomes clear. 1. This was a crime, whether under domestic law enforcement, international law or war law. 2. By its very logic, there is nothing preventing them from doing the same within the US. 3. They are bragging about it.

When African Americans applied to segregated southern universities, white officials would routinely dig into their personal lives to find any semblance of dirt that they could play up to pretend they were criminals and therefore unfit to attend the school.

Not even remotely true. According to the Fed, the median and average sales prices for a home peaked in mid-2022 and have been slowly falling — despite several million migrants arriving. But due to high interest rates, the Home Price Index is still slowly rising.
Chart shows average and median home sales prices, dating back a decade. Both average and median are relatively flat, if rising slightly, from 2015 to 2020. Then they spike in 2020 until mid-2022, when average and median began to slowly drop. This diverges from the trend of the separate S&P CaseLogic Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index, which continues to rise, albeit more slowly, after mid-2022.

If you want to put back statues and memorials and names of Confederate traitors while tearing down museum exhibitions on slavery because they don't show the greatness of the nation... the nation whose history you're celebrating is whiteness. The kind of nationalist you are is a white nationalist.

If politics corrupts economic data, it stops being useful. Businesses won’t trust it. Voters can’t hold leaders accountable. The value of data lies in the truths it reveals — lose that, and you lose everything.
