A esquerda apparatchik dizia que a Selic alta era conspiração de Campos Neto. Agora, com novo presidente do BC nomeado por Lula, a Selic vai a 14,75% — maior em 20 anos. E o que fazem? Atacam Campos Neto por ir ao setor privado. Hipocrisia pura. A decisão é técnica, sempre foi.

ICE officers are now reportedly required to meet arrest quotas each day, from a few hundred to between 1,200 and 1,500 nationwide. Jonathan Blitzer reports on the mystery of the agency’s unidentifiable arrests.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Latam has been spared. Tariffs on many countries—especially Asia—are significantly higher. Those targeting Latam remain relatively low, hovering around 10%. Whether this reflects strategic priorities or political influence, it’s clear the region has been treated with relative leniency.

Lula says he's chosen his new institutional relations minister because she's a "pretty woman". Trying to defend Lula, Hoffmann argues that Bolsonaro was much worse, a real misogynist. Sure, but - can't we do better than either of them? www1.folha.uol.com.br/poder/2025/0...

Tarcísio, reagindo à denúncia contra Bolsonaro: nega envolvimento do ex-presidente em plano golpista e afirma: "estamos juntos". E tem quem ainda considere Tarcísio um democrata, um centrista razoável, um bom gestor, uma boa alternativa. Boa sorte.

Should Denmark buy California? A new petition says 'ja,' and proposes a price tag
The man behind the push, Xavier Dutoit, started the 'Denmarkification' website to make the pitch that the Scandinavian state should buy the Golden one for $1 trillion.

O chapéu estilo panamá do Lula é bonito, mas não combina com o terno - está bizarro. O chapéu é de palha e de cor clara. É informal. Deveria ser usado com camisa, sem paletó, de preferência de cor clara. Ou com terno claro. Com esse terno, Lula deveria usar chapéu estilo fedora, de cor escura.
