I’d been looking forward all week to going to the Yankees game tonite. Not so much now, but I’ll go. I wish that asshole would just leave us alone today. It’s a sacred day here. He doesn’t belong, especially to just put on his act to bogart a tragedy on the anniversary of 9/11 for some attention.

In some capacities, I’m well past civility. If a young adult making a living playing social discord & political division as a firebrand, influencer or proxy for the worst bad actors in this Trumpian hellscape we’re living through, you’re wasting your life for nothing. And risking it. For nothing.

It is this very hour on this day every year that just cuts me open again. It never gets easier & in many ways gets worse the further removed we are from it. As it should be, I suppose. I miss my friends who had to leave too soon today years ago.

Political violence disproportionately hurts people with less power, not people with more power. Political violence will disproportionately hurt people of color and women and LGBTQ people. It’s not fair, but that’s the way it works. Celebrating political violence means at best indifference to that.

Claiming he’s too lazy & stupid to draw something creative or write out something that doesn’t drip with attacks on basic grammar, then have the wit to sign it as if the scribbles are pubic hair is legitimate advocacy for him, as I see it. Not to say they aren’t lying (they are), but well played.

Let’s be blunt: right now there’s more than 1/2 dozen red state AGs who are touching themselves in excitement over filing an emergency relief brief to a bespoke single-Trump appointed-judge district court in their state, then to SCOTUS to keep their Orange Ape in play after a Dem is elected in 2028

Burisma hired Hunter Biden to help it develop Ukraine’s own gas reserves. Instead, Rick Perry pressured Ukraine to buy expensive LNG and put his Texas buddies on the board of Naftogaz, a state company. Marie Yovanovitch, the US ambassador, was ousted because she supported Naftogaz against corruption
Kobolyev declined to comment on many recent events that have vaulted Naftogaz and Ukraine into the news. He wouldn’t air any views on why Giuliani’s associates — Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman — tried to replace him with a different CEO. Lawyers for Parnas and Fruman also declined to comment.
Nor would Kobolyev comment on U.S. Energy Secretary Rick Perry’s efforts to shake up Naftogaz’s supervisory board, as first reported by the Associated Press and confirmed to The Post by people familiar with the matter, who said Perry lobbied Ukraine to install new board members during a May visit to Kyiv. The Department of Energy didn’t respond to requests for comment.

https://wapo.st/4mX9HxEQ  What is Naftogaz?

A  It is the gas monopoly that is owned by the Government of Ukraine.

Q  Has it had some corruption issues in the past, to your knowledge?

A  It has. You know, it's really cleaned up its act. I mean, we consider it to be one of the success stories in Ukraine. But that doesn't mean it's done. I mean, there's still issues going forward.

Q  Did the act cleaning up occur in conjunction with the fact that they added a supervisory board to the company?

A  I think that was important. I think the most important thing, though, was actually the head of Naftogaz, a guy by the name of Andrei Kobalyev, who is, you know, as clean as they come, and was fearless and determined to sort of shake everything up and really made some amazing steps forward, I mean, from a country that was getting the vast majority, something like 93 percent, of its gas from Russia to importing zero from Russia.

So, I mean, if you think about that from a security standpoint, huge steps forward.

Early gut read: Chris Murphy is filling the decaf kinda socially progressive but absolutely moderate economic lane in the Democrat party & that makes him electable. Murphy vs. [fill in any garden variety Trump ass kisser] in 2028 is an easy win. The real question is will Dem voters nominate him?

Tooze questions his own vision of a "polycrisis" and comes to the conclusion that talk of a bond-market correction disciplining Trump is liberal wish-casting. www.ft.com/content/8b41...
And this backdrop also puts into perspective the wistful talk about bond vigilantes and the US Treasury market. In the liberal version of the world, the Treasury market is the naturalised power that serves as the backstop of hegemony. It defines the order and punishes transgression. If, faced with Trump’s multiple code violations, the market were to start responding violently, though painful, it would come as a tonic. Faced with a populist as aggressive as Trump 2.0, progressive liberals all too readily agree with Andrew Mellon, Treasury secretary to Herbert Hoover, that a massive sell-off would “purge the rottenness out of the system”. 

But what if there is no crisis? What if the markets merely shrug? Some investors may cheer. But anyone attached to the before times will know that the game is really up. A crisis, after all, is a sign that the patient is not dead yet.

When not on Guard duty, the guardsman who was patrolling DC's subway stop is a police officer in Jackson, Miss. Jackson last year had a murder rate about three times higher than DC's. If it's not the deadliest U.S. city, it's close. And its police staffing per-capita is less than half of DC's.

Oh, I’m sure of it. Circus freaks, clowns, barkers, organ grinders & tin cup chimps always show out good numbers. Let’s get real: economic growth hasn’t disappeared yet, but it is modestly nominal in the best case scenario this year. Recessions take time to build, we’re still 9-12 mos. out now.

A periodic reminder that ACB is no less a monster because she’s less overtly a loud and proud monster than Roberts, Alito, Thomas & Gorsuch. Also a periodic reminder that Andrew Jackson appointed SIX to justices SCOTUS during his term, led to 2+ decades of the insipid Taney Court & the Civil War.

It is also notable that mortgage loans are easily discoverable by banks. Even if Cook hadn’t disclosed another property, a title/deed & debt servicing agreement with another bank is easily obtainable by any bank, at any time for any reason. So there’s no bank fraud claim here. This’s silly.
