Physicist discovers ‘paradox-free’ time travel is theoretically possible
17 December 2023
..  "Classical dynamics says if you know the state of a system at a particular time, this can tell us the entire history of the system," Tobar explained back in 2020. "However, Einstein's theory of general relativity predicts the existence of time loops or time travel – where an event can be both in the past and future of itself – theoretically turning the study of dynamics on its head. "What the calculations show is that space-time can potentially adapt itself to avoid paradoxes.  ..

"The story is about the idea that this father of the family is ahead in time, so he can look back and see what's going to happen in England, and it's not good. He's trying to get a message back to his family to warn them that the impending disaster is coming.  ..

La audaz teoría de un "antiuniverso" donde el tiempo corre hacia atrás (y cómo resuelve varios enigmas del cosmos)
9 mayo 2022
..  Según la propuesta de Boyle y sus colegas, el Big Bang es como un espejo que no solo invierte la imagen, sino también la dirección del tiempo. En ambos lados del universo el tiempo avanza alejándose del Big Bang, solamente que en un lado la flecha del tiempo va hacia la derecha, y en el otro va hacia la izquierda. ..        .. "Desde nuestra perspectiva, en el antiverso el tiempo avanza hacia atrás, pero para ellos somos nosotros los que vamos al revés". Esa idea de Boyle encierra otra posibilidad alucinante: quizás seamos nosotros quienes estemos en el antiuniverso y no lo sepamos. ..       .. El estudio de Boyle, sin embargo, ofrece una repuesta "más económica" al enigma de la materia oscura.  ..

Michio Kaku has some news about simulation theory

 
Could a new law of physics support the idea we're living in a computer simulation?
October 9, 2023
 
 
¡No Elon we are NOT in a simulation, here's how we'd know...

The simulation hypothesis is the idea that everything we experience, including our memories and consciousness could be an advanced digital simulation created by a technologically advanced civilization. It's so advanced that it’s indistinguishable from reality. Supporters believe that even the complexity of a character’s simulated brain would be enough to make it sentient. But since we as characters would be oblivious to this, we would not know if we are in one. How much computing power this would require? Hans Morovec and expert in AI, calculates that this would require about 10^14 operations per second, based on computer modelling of neurons. Other experts calculate the number to be up to 10^21 operations per second. This could make the simulated beings conscious because they would have the same brain capability as real humans. We don't have this computing power now, but many people like futurist Ray Kurzweil believe the technology is 20 years away. K. Eric Drexler, from MIT outlined a design for a system the size of a sugar cube that could perform 10^21 operations per second. Robert Bradbury, has conceptualized a computing megastructure, a Matryoshka brain, based on a planet sized Dyson sphere with computing power of 10^42 operations per second. Based on the highest number needed to simulate a brain, 10^21, a total computing power of 10^31 would simulate the brains of every person on earth. We would only need to simulate the brain and nothing else because all human perception resides in the brain. A structure the size of the Empire state building could easily simulate millions of universes.  ..

The holographic secret of black holes
December 19, 2023
 
As weird as it might sound, black holes appear to be holograms. …         .. This is the line of reasoning behind the holographic principle, and a statement containing no more than three words that completely and utterly decimates our understanding of space, time, matter, and energy: we live in a hologram. The next, and perhaps the last, gravitational revolution is upon us. It starts with the observation that black holes are regions of maximum entropy in the universe, and that their consumption of information content causes their surface areas, not their volumes, to grow in proportion. And it ends with a completely new understanding of gravity.

.. The storm caused significant interference to the United States power grid.[8] Substantial communications blackouts occurred. The burst caused shortwave radio interference, including the disruption of radio signals from Radio Free Europe into Russia. ..         .. Because of serious concerns that utilities have failed to set protection standards and are unprepared for a severe solar storm such as the Carrington Event, in 2013, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) ordered the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) to create standards that would require power grids to be somewhat protected from solar storms and equipment to be continuously tested for possible effects of solar storms.[18][19] After a technical conference and public comment, the final rule utilities must use for testing equipment and directing future research was published in September, 2016.[20] ..
 
 
 
The dog days or dog days of summer are the hot, sultry days of summer.

They are now taken to be the hottest, most uncomfortable part of summer in the Northern Hemisphere. ..

They sample it so much times but none of them is my favorite. The reason why I say that is they know how to contact me. They know I live in the U.S. and nobody try to contact me to do it in person. They always sample the tune. If they had contacted me and I would do it for them live then I would have a favorite."[1]

,4-26-21

Rock a Little is the third solo studio album by American singer and songwriter Stevie Nicks, released on November 18, 1985, by Modern Records. ..
 .. Jimmy Iovine was originally brought in to produce the album and work on the demo recordings in 1984. However, he parted ways with Nicks midway through the recording sessions, claiming he did not like the direction in which Nicks wanted to take the album. It was later revealed that the two had been in a relationship for several years. Nicks' subsequent relationship with Eagles member Joe Walsh produced the ballad "Has Anyone Ever Written Anything for You". Keith Olsen, Rick Nowels and Nicks herself took over production duties after Iovine's departure. Upon its release in November 1985, Rock a Little received very mixed reviews. Combined with Nicks' growing addiction to cocaine at the time which hampered her tour performances (she would infamously check into the Betty Ford Clinic at the tour's conclusion), the album did not achieve sales or chart positions expected of Nicks at that time. ..

Sweet Jane by The Velvet Underground, lyrics meaning - the anthem of paradox and simple complexities
April 25, 2024
.. The song’s protagonists, Jack and Jane, are portrayed as ordinary individuals caught in the web of societal norms. Jack’s occupation as a banker and Jane’s clerical work symbolize the cookie-cutter life that was the American dream of the time. Yet, there’s a nuance to their existence, a hint that perhaps their spirits aren’t caged by the mundanity of their routines.  ..        .. The Velvet Underground does not shy away from exposing life’s ironic truths: the idea that appearances can be deceiving, children are the harbingers of sincerity, and ultimately that everyone seeks to love without destruction. ..

Seneca was born in Córdoba in Hispania, and raised in Rome, where he was trained in rhetoric and philosophy. His father was Seneca the Elder, his elder brother was Lucius Junius Gallio Annaeanus, and his nephew was the poet Lucan. In AD 41, Seneca was exiled to the island of Corsica under emperor Claudius,[2] but was allowed to return in 49 to become a tutor to Nero. When Nero became emperor in 54, Seneca became his advisor and, together with the praetorian prefect Sextus Afranius Burrus, provided competent government for the first five years of Nero's reign. Seneca's influence over Nero declined with time, and in 65 Seneca was forced to take his own life for alleged complicity in the Pisonian conspiracy to assassinate Nero, of which he was probably innocent.[3] His stoic and calm suicide has become the subject of numerous paintings…

Beyond Gaza: How Yemen’s Houthis gain from attacking Red Sea ships
22 Dec 2023
..  Their attacks on commercial and military ships potentially connected to Israel are, according to Houthi officials, aimed at pressuring Israel to end its war on Gaza. The Houthi attacks have been popular domestically in Yemen, allowing the group to recruit new fighters.  ..      .. The Red Sea and Suez Canal account for 30 percent of the world’s container ship traffic.  ..       .. “This was underestimated by the international community over the past few years.” ..        ..  At least 12 shipping companies have suspended transit through the Red Sea over the attacks, among them some of the world’s largest: the Italian-Swiss giant Mediterranean Shipping Company, France’s CMA CGM and Denmark’s AP Moller-Maersk.  ..      .. Many companies are instead travelling around the southern tip of Africa, extending their journey by about nine days and costs by at least 15 percent.  ..       .. “They have some shared goals with Tehran but we shouldn’t overestimate the leverage Iran has on the Houthis,” Eleonora Ardemagni, a senior associate research fellow at the Italian Institute for International Political Studies (ISPI), told Al Jazeera. “They have their own agenda.” ..       .. Tensions in the Red Sea and potential disruptions to oil trade hurt most regional economies, of which Saudi Arabia is the biggest. ..      .. Currently, the US coalition is more intent on defending ships passing through the Red Sea by intercepting Houthi attacks. “The US doesn’t want to escalate this crisis” either, Brew, the Eurasia Group analyst, said.   ..

‘A Nazi travels to Palestine’: A swastika and star of David on one coin
01.21.18


Ralph Schoenman - The hidden history of Zionism, chapter 6
.. Consequently, the Zionists brought Baron Von Mildenstein of the SS Security Service to Palestine for a six-month visit in support of Zionism. This visit led to a twelve-part report by Joseph Goebbels, Hitler’s Minister of Propaganda, in Der Angriff (The Assault) in 1934 praising Zionism. Goebbels ordered a medallion struck with the Swastika on one side, and on the other, the Zionist Star of David. In May 1935, Reinhardt Heydrich, the chief of the SS Security Service, wrote an article in which he separated Jews into “two categories.” The Jews he favored were the Zionists: “Our good wishes together with our official good will go with them.“ [82] In 1937, the Labor “socialist” Zionist militia, the Haganah (founded by Jabotinsky) sent an agent (Feivel Polkes) to Berlin offering to spy for the SS Security Service in exchange for the release of Jewish wealth for Zionist colonization. Adolf Eichmann was invited to Palestine as the guest of the Haganah.  ..

Trump will attend today's Kennedy Center board meeting as its new chair
March 17, 2025
President Trump is expected to tour the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts today, where he will also preside over a board meeting as the Center's new chair. ..         .. President Trump named an all-new board that, in an unprecedented move, elected him as the new Kennedy Center Board Chair. ..         .. Since 1978, The Kennedy Center Honors have recognized the lifetime artistic achievements of people and institutions like Queen Latifah, Dolly Parton and the Apollo Theater. During his first term, Trump declined to attend the annual awards ceremony in Washington, D.C. In 2017, he attended a Fourth of July concert at the Kennedy Center hosted by First Baptist Church Dallas. During the event, the church's choir and orchestra performed a new song that included Trump's "Make America Great Again" campaign slogan in its lyrics. During the concert, President Trump spoke in support of "religious liberty" and against "fake media." But in recent months, Trump has criticized the Kennedy Center's programming for being "woke" and has vowed to change that moving forward. "We have to straighten it out," he told reporters on Air Force One Sunday after spending the weekend in Florida.   ..

September 19, 2023
https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2023/09/19/the-biggest-problems-and-greatest-strengths-of-the-u-s-political-system/
 
The public sees a number of specific problems with American politics. Partisan fighting, the high cost of political campaigns, and the outsize influence of special interests and lobbyists are each seen as characteristic of the U.S. political system by at least 84% of Americans.
Yet 63% also say that “ordinary Americans care about making the political system work well” is a good description of U.S. politics today. Still, when asked to describe a strength of the political system in their own words, more than half either say “nothing” (22%) or decline to give an answer (34%).   ..
Nearly seven-in-ten adults express frustration with the availability of unbiased information about politics: 68% say the statement “it is easy to find unbiased information about what is happening in politics” is not a good description of the political system.

US economy grew at a shocking pace in the fourth quarter
January 25, 2024
 
.. Americans are still opening their wallets and US consumer sentiment is soaring, mostly thanks to slowing inflation. That’s on top of a rallying US stock market beefing up Americans’ retirement accounts. ..      .. Economists and Fed officials widely expect the US economy to run at a slower pace this year compared to 2023, but not contract. That means the Fed still has a decent shot at defeating inflation without mass job losses, known as a soft landing. ..       .. Still, Fed officials have said they likely need to see “below-trend growth” to be assured that inflation is sustainably under control. The Fed’s mechanism of slowing inflation is by deliberately cooling the economy through higher interest rates, which are currently nestled at a 23-year high.  ..

See where inflation is the highest and lowest in America
July 28, 2024
.. The Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater region in Florida recently saw the lowest inflation rate among 23 metropolitan areas across the country — 1.8% in the 12 months that ended in May, according to data from the Consumer Price Index. That’s a stunning reversal from last year when it was one of the highest. The Honolulu metro area in Hawaii, meanwhile, saw the nation’s highest annual inflation rate in May, at 5.2%. Nationwide, inflation is running at 3% annually, the latest CPI showed.
 
Economic development and residential construction have been booming in the fast-growing Tampa Bay region. Housing costs have therefore eased over the past year, tugging inflation overall much lower. A jump in homebuilding has also largely contributed to Houston, Minneapolis and Denver having the nation’s lowest inflation rates, according to economists.  ..        .. But such growth came with growing pains: Housing costs in many parts of Florida, including Tampa, have soared in recent years as new residents snatched up homes. Annual inflation in the Tampa metro area surged to an all-time high of 11.3% in 2022, and the region continued to have one of the highest inflation rates the following year. But unlike in Miami, which is still struggling with inflation higher than the national rate, developers have stepped on the gas in Tampa.  ..       .. In addition to more new homes, Adcock said downtown Tampa has had “an incredible metamorphosis” due to the wide-ranging flurry of economic development across the region.  ..       .. But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. Florida residents still must contend with surging home insurance costs as the state deals with more devastating hurricanes and an exodus of insurers.   ..       .. Hawaii’s high cost of living is partly due to its isolation in the Pacific Ocean — nearly 2,500 miles from the West Coast — making the transportation of goods and materials to the state an extra cost that’s factored into prices. The state’s housing market is also extremely tight because there just aren’t enough available homes. The housing shortage is due to a confluence of factors such as the state’s small size by surface area, inefficient zoning laws and intense opposition to development, economists and homebuilders told CNN.   ..

Strong services fan US producer inflation in April
May 14, 2024

.. A 0.6% jump in services accounted for nearly three-quarters of the increase in the PPI. April's rise was the largest since July 2023 and followed a 0.1% dip in March. In the 12 months through April, the PPI increased 2.2% after climbing 1.8% in March.   ..     .. Economists had largely attributed the rise to a combination of businesses raising prices at the start of the year and providers of services like motor vehicle insurance catching up to higher costs. They are optimistic that inflation will resume its downward trend this quarter as the labor market is cooling.  ..     .. The cost of hotel and motel rooms rebounded 2.4% after falling 1.4% in March. The cost of transporting freight by road also rose. But wholesale airline passenger fares dropped 3.8% after increasing 1.7% in March. Health and medical insurance costs rose 0.2% after posting a similar gain in March.  ..     .. "Inflation pressures are still substantial and the momentum that built up over the last few years is still rolling along," said Bill Adams, chief economist at Comerica Bank.

As big supermarkets pursue profits, new research shows growing exploitation of shrimp farmers
September 30, 2024
BANGKOK (AP) — Indonesian shrimp farmer Yulius Cahyonugroho operated more than two dozen ponds only a few years ago, employing seven people and making more than enough to support his family.
Since then, the 39-year-old says the prices he gets from purchasers have fallen by half and he’s had to scale back to four workers and about one-third the ponds, some months not even breaking even. His wife has had to take a job at a watermelon farm to help support their two children.   ..


Lost in the supermarket (1979) - The Clash
 
.. The song's lyrics describe someone struggling to deal with an increasingly commercialised world and rampant consumerism. The song opens with Strummer's autobiographical memories of his parents' home in suburban Warlingham, with a hedge "over which I never could see." With lines such as "I came in here for that special offer – guaranteed personality", the protagonist bemoans the depersonalisation of the world around him. The song speaks of numbness from suburban alienation and the feelings of disillusionment that come through youth in modern society.[9][10]  ..
 
 
 
Yankee stadium area is hurting, and baseball’s return won’t help
Sept. 8, 2020
 
..  Merchants and residents of the blocks that surround the stadium have been staggered by the toll the pandemic has taken on their community, which sits in the country’s poorest congressional district.  ..      .. The same goes for his commercial neighbors, most of whom have not been able to pay rent for months because they have done little or no business since the city shut down in March.  ..      ..  the community district surrounding the stadium is 65 percent Hispanic and 29 percent Black — includes many more Dominicans. The median household income is $33,400 in the district, where about one-third of the residents live in poverty.  ..      .. The neighborhood around the stadium is one of the poorest in the country, and many businesses depend heavily on fans spending money during the baseball season. .. .. The Yankees, worth an estimated $5 billion, pay no property taxes, Mr. Goodman wrote, but if they did, some of the proceeds could go to help their neighbors.  ..     .. The bulk of the money the city has dispensed to small businesses in the Bronx — $500,000 — was donated by SOMOS Community Care, a network of health care providers led by Dr. Ramon Tallaj.  ..

Why the federal government should stop spending billions on private sports stadiums
September 8, 2016
 
When the New York Yankees completed the new Yankee Stadium in 2009, the final construction bill was an estimated $2.5 billion. Of that, nearly $1.7 billion was financed by tax-exempt municipal bonds issued by the city of New York.  ..       ..  The Yankees, of course, aren’t the only team to finance their stadium using tax-exempt municipal bonds. Since 2000, 35 other professional sports stadiums have also been financed with tax-exempt bonds.   ..      .. Indeed, there is little evidence that stadiums provide even local economic benefits. Decades of academic studies consistently find no discernible positive relationship between sports facilities and local economic development, income growth, or job creation.  ..     ..  Until the early 1950s, most professional sports stadiums were privately built. That changed in 1953 when the Boston Braves were lured to Milwaukee by a new stadium built with public money. Since then, public funding of stadiums has been the norm.  ..

Peca de simplón sobre la complejidad regional e histórica ...  Si los hutíes en realidad son la causa de las muertes en Yemen, ¿entonces Israel no los aplaudiría ?  Desde 2015 han estado en guerra civil, donde Arabia Saudí es la cabeza externa visible...  El salafista Estado Islámico también los ha atacado, pero nunca a Israel, ¿a qué se debe asere ? Lo mismo sobre Sudán, donde pululan yihadistas como Boko Haram y Ansaru, muy ligados a Occidente y monarquías…  En Siria, tales bandas azotaron (y azotan) a la población. Israel reciente se retiró del Consejo de Derechos Humanos, aunque el organismo también ha denunciado las violaciones en esos conflictos

Why the U.S. might not win the global economy without Canada and Mexico
October 11, 2022
.. But in a forthcoming book, The Globalization Myth: Why Regions Matter, author Shannon O'Neil argues that it's a huge mistake for the United States to turn against free trade and try to go it alone in the global economy. Instead, she argues, for the nation to become more globally competitive and create good jobs, we must find a middle ground on trade, embracing Canada and Mexico and working with them to beef up regional supply chains and our collective productive capacity.  ..      .. O'Neil writes that the average import from Mexico is "40 percent US made," meaning that 40 percent of the parts that go into the end product are still produced in the US. The average Canadian import, meanwhile, is 25 percent made in the US. "As for a product coming in from China? Just 4 percent of it was made in the USA," she writes. It's a big reason why, she argues, studies have found trade with China killed millions of American jobs and destroyed towns in the industrial heartland, yet studies of trade with Mexico and Canada "have found limited effects on jobs and communities."  ..

Los secretos del misterioso proyecto soviético del pozo superprofundo de Kola: por qué le dicen “la puerta de entrada al infierno”
22 Ene, 2025
En plena Guerra Fría, la rivalidad entre las dos grandes potencias se libraba tanto en el espacio exterior, como también bajo la superficie terrestre. En este contexto, la Unión Soviética emprendió un proyecto científico sin precedentes: el Pozo Superprofundo de Kola, el agujero más profundo jamás excavado por el ser humano, que alcanzó una profundidad récord de 12.262 metros en 1989. Este ambicioso esfuerzo dejó un legado científico invaluable y desafíos que todavía hoy sorprenden a los geólogos.  ..          .. Este proyecto científico de la Unión Soviética surgió como una respuesta al Proyecto Mohole de Estados Unidos, que había intentado perforar el lecho marino del océano Pacífico en los años 60 pero fue cancelado en 1966 debido a problemas de financiación.  ..        .. Según el investigador alemán Ulrich Harms, los hallazgos del pozo ofrecen información valiosa sobre la composición de la corteza terrestre y el flujo de fluidos en su interior.   ..

..  Now let’s consider a totally different kind of global conflict. The growing division between the democratic West and the arc of authoritarian states across Eurasia has entered a dangerous new chapter. Neither side wants to risk outright war, but there is a possibility that destroying satellite communications will undermine the military and economic capability of the other side. Without warning, the West’s satellite communication ­system is attacked and massive damage is done to its commercial and military electronic networks.  ..       .. The sad reality is that our understanding of why wars occur has so far contributed little to setting warfare aside as an enduring element in human affairs.

IMPERIALISMO Y CRISIS DEL MEGACAPITALISMO OCCIDENTAL GLOBALIZADO


In Vladimir Lenin’s 1916 book : Imperialism, the highest stage of capitalism ,

he cites an 1895 letter by Cecil Rhodes  (English magnate, founder of the diamond company De Beers, politician, and whose last name was coined as Rhodesia to the present country of Zimbabwe)   to his friend, the journalist W. T. Stead :

..  I was in the East End of London (a working-class quarter) yesterday and attended a meeting of the unemployed. I listened to the wild speeches, which were just a cry for ‘bread! bread!’ and on my way home I pondered over the scene and I became more than ever convinced of the importance of imperialism.... My cherished idea is a solution for the social problem, i.e., in order to save the 40,000,000 inhabitants of the United Kingdom from a bloody civil war, we colonial statesmen must acquire new lands to settle the surplus population, to provide new markets for the goods produced in the factories and mines. The Empire, as I have always said, is a bread and butter question. If you want to avoid civil war, you must become imperialists.[4]  .. “

Rhodes, a committed racist, also set up the Rhodes Scholarship, an international postgraduate award for students to study at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom. W. T. Stead perished in the sinking of the RMS Titanic  in April 1912.

Stock market today: Dow drops 600 on weak jobs data as a global sell-off whips back to Wall Street
August 2, 2024
Stocks tumbled Friday on worries the U.S. economy could be cracking under the weight of high interest rates meant to whip inflation. ..       .. Now, worries are rising the Fed may have kept its main interest rate at a two-decade high for too long. A rate cut would make it easier for U.S. households and companies to borrow money and boost the economy, but it could take months to a year for the full effects to filter through.

 
Dow drops 860 points, and Japanese stocks suffer worst crash since 1987 amid U.S. economy worries
August 5, 2024
.. The drops were just the latest in a global sell-off that began last week. Japan’s Nikkei 225 helped start Monday by plunging 12.4% for its worst day since the Black Monday crash of 1987.
It was the first chance for traders in Tokyo to react to Friday’s report showing U.S. employers slowed their hiring last month by much more than economists expected. That was the latest piece of data on the U.S. economy to come in weaker than expected, and it’s all raised fear the Federal Reserve has pressed the brakes on the U.S. economy by too much for too long through high interest rates in hopes of stifling inflation. ..        .. Even gold, which has a reputation for offering safety during tumultuous times, slipped 1%. ..       .. The U.S. economy is still growing, and a recession is far from a certainty. The Fed has been clear about the tightrope it began walking when it started hiking rates sharply in March 2022: Being too aggressive would choke the economy, but going too soft would give inflation more oxygen and hurt everyone. ..       .. Some of Wall Street’s recent declines may also simply be air coming out of a stock market that romped to dozens of all-time highs this year, in part on a frenzy around artificial-intelligence technology and hopes for coming cuts to interest rates. Critics have been saying for a while that the stock market looked expensive after prices rose faster than corporate profits. ..       .. Professional investors also pointed to the Bank of Japan’s move last week to raise its main interest rate from nearly zero. Such a move helps boost the value of the Japanese yen, but it could also force traders to scramble out of deals where they borrowed money for virtually no cost in Japan and invested it elsewhere around the world. ..       .. Worries outside corporate profits, interest rates and the economy are also weighing on the market. The Israel-Hamas war may be worsening, which beyond its human toll could also cause sharp swings for the price of oil. That’s adding to broader worries about potential hotspots around the world, while upcoming U.S. elections could further scramble things. ..       .. The threat of a recession is likely to put Vice President Kamala Harris on the defensive. But slower growth could also further reduce inflation and force former President Donald Trump to pivot from his current focus on higher prices to outlining ways to revive the economy.

.. A year ago, some would have thought it inconceivable that Kennedy — a member of the most storied family in Democratic politics — would work with Trump to keep a Democrat out of the White House.

But the two campaigns have ramped up their compliments to each other and engaged in behind-the-scenes discussions in recent weeks, according to those familiar with the efforts. Both campaigns have spent months accusing Democrats of weaponizing the legal system for their own benefit.

The decision will almost certainly be challenged by Smith’s team of prosecutors at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit, where the matter may eventually land at the desks of the Supreme Court. Cannon based her decision largely around Justice Clarence Thomas’ recent concurrence that cast doubt on the legality of special counsel appointments. ..       ..  Legal experts, and Trump’s team themselves, had long considered the classified document case to be the strongest of the four criminal cases against him—largely because his alleged crimes took place explicitly after he’d left the White House and likely could not argue for presidential immunity.  ..

✔  En el "debate" anoche ambos tuvieron aciertos y desaciertos. Un ejemplo, el trompo acusó a Kamala de ser marxista y educada como tal  🤣 , pero en otra ocasión (creo cuando hablaban de los aranceles) él dijo que ella copiaba de su "filosofía exitosa"...  Por cierto, en sus propiedades él ha preferido usar acero chino, menos costoso…      ◺

 
Rob J :
 
 Tiene muchas politicas socialistas la señora (implementadas durante el gobierno del senil Biden) y la señora empezó a copiar las politicas que Trump había implementado porque era insostenible si no lo hacía, como empresario y negociante obviamente va a buscar la opción más económica y si Biden/Harris no habían subido aranceles a la importación del acero chino ¿por que no lo aprovecharía Trump u otros empresarios?

 
✔  Trump la acusó de marxista, no de socialista, pero para él ambos son la misma cosa. Fíjate, qué tan comunista puede ser ella sin comulgar con Kim Jong-un mientras que Trump alega que Kim y otros en cambio lo respetan a él… Alternativamente acusa a los demócratas de políticas izquierdistas fallidas, pero luego se voltea bembeteando que bajo el dormilón Biden más inmigrantes cruzan la frontera ! Vaya, van de un comunismo a otro ! La realidad es que con Biden han habido más deportaciones aunque más cruces debido a las sanciones a varios países.. Los ciclos comerciales en   🇺🇸   devienen en su mayoría esté quien esté en la Casa Blanca. Los aranceles a mercancías chinas hubieran subido estando él o Hillary, por ello Biden los mantuvo. Trump MIENTE al alegar que no tienen un efecto inflacionario, y de hecho cuando le conviene inserta falsamente que la inflación bajo Biden es la más alta en décadas. Trump no subió los aranceles por amor a la industria  🇺🇸  , sino que debido a sus recortes de impuestos a las corporaciones en 2017, eso causaría un aumento del déficit o la deuda pública, y por algún lado había que suplirla.
 
En reiteradas ocasiones ha dicho que el déficit comercial con China bajo Biden es el más alto e insostenible, más de un billón (trillion en inglés). Eso es FALSO. En 2023-24 fue menor que durante su administración. Desde entonces, la balanza comercial   🇺🇸  aumentó de manera negativa con respecto a otros países, y aumentó exportando en el sector de servicios...
Donaldo  además MIENTE en que en 3 años y medio no se han creado empleos (todo lo contrario, el desempleo disminuyó mucho..).   Pero en general reitero, ambos candidatos anoche, ninguno ofrece algo novedoso.       
      

Rob J :
 
 Trump es mercantilista y negocía cpn China tanto como cuañquier otro país del mundo, sólo que las sanciones los limita, Biden/Harris han aplicado politicas de tipo socialista más no quiere decir que hayan cruzado la línea a esa corriente, no les conviene, recuerde que perdonaron créditos estudiantiles y con respecto a los migrantes, bajo el mandato Biden/Harris en efecto han recibido incentivos económicos y por eso la orda de migrantes que buscan ese beneficio lo cual daña más a los norteamericanos que a las dictaduras de donde proceden las personas. Con la inflación las mismas sanciones de Biden/Harris les han reventado en la cara, hasta tuvieron que permitir a empresas privadas negociar con Venezuela por su petroleo financiando la dictadura, porque era insostenible mantenerse con el crudo gringo nada más. Adicional los billones que se envían a los países en conflicto bélico que ha provocado la impresión de mas moneda y esa burbuja está hiperinflada y si revienta nos perjudica a todos... acá el problema es que Harris está en el cargo y plantea soluciones de problemas que la misma aministración a la que ella pertenece han provocado, me explico, si sabe como solucionarlos porque no se ha reunido Biden y le ha pmanteado las "soluciones". Gracias por la nutrida explicación que expuso, muy interesante. 
 
 
Trump’s vow of 100% tariffs on nations that snub the dollar is a lose-lose for China and U.S., economist says
Sep 9 2024
..  “The U.S. dollar is a sort of privilege that the U.S. economy has been enjoying, and it’s sort of a liquidity tax on the rest of the globe, so I’m not surprised to see this kind of threat,” Hong said.  ..         ..

Would Trump's tariffs trigger a global trade war? Experts weigh in.

In response, the Trump administration paid billions of dollars in direct aid to farmers to make up for the losses.  ..

 

Here are our fact checks from the vice-presidential debate.

Oct. 1, 2024
.. Economists and real estate experts say that while migration, including illegal immigration, has contributed to population growth and thus demand for housing, it is not a main driver of the country’s housing affordability crisis. A lack of supply is the primary culprit, they said.  ..      .. Inflation jumped amid pandemic-spurred lockdowns that left goods in short supply, and was exacerbated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Studies have found that the size of U.S. federal spending did worsen the inflation — some even find large effects — but inflation took off globally, not just in the United States, in a sign that other factors were also at play.  ..


Jack Rasmus –  the first vice-presidential debate
October 4, 2024
.. debate between Republican J.D. Vance and Democrat Tim Walz might have been called the ‘First Presidential Debate of 2028’. Based on the reasonable debate performances by both, Vance and Walz are clearly now the front runners as presidential candidates for their parties in the next 2028 national election.  ..
.. Vance could have rebutted claims of Biden-Harris job creation by noting most new jobs the past two years have been part time and gig work. ..       .. Vance’s answer to the lack of housing affordability was to argue the 25 million illegal immigrants were driving up housing costs—a not convincing argument that alleges somehow immigrant demand for home ownership is largely responsible for runaway home and mortgage prices. But illegal immigrants excess demand for home ownership is clearly not driving up shelter inflation.   ..

Cómo Estados Unidos se convirtió en la primera potencia mundial
,15-11-24
Impulsados por el convencimiento de que su pueblo era superior al resto, los primeros líderes de una de las naciones más jóvenes del planeta expandieron sus dominios por América del Norte. Pero luego, a diferencia de Imperios como el Espanol o el Británico, los presidentes estadounidenses renunciaron a conquistar y administrar colonias lejos de sus fronteras. Su expansión fue más económica y política que geográfica; presentándose como el país salvador de la democracia y las libertades en el mundo, Estados Unidos liberó a Europa Occidental de Hitler y de Stalin, pero también trabajó para debilitar al Gobierno democrático de Salvador Allende en Chile y desbarató el orden político de Oriente Medio invadiendo Irak con falsos pretextos. Hoy, aunque Estados Unidos sigue siendo la primera potencia militar del mundo, tras décadas sin rivales, la China de Xi Jinping se ha propuesto arrebatarle ese poder.   ..

What often gets forgotten about the origin story of this term is that Gibson wasn’t just talking the future of computers, but of a world where tech corporations rule every aspect of our lives.  ..        .. Of course, fantasy and science fiction have tackled economics before. The original Blade Runner is a nightmare about endless recession, and Isaac Asimov’s celebrated 1950s Foundation series was partly about saving the galaxy with sound economic programs.   ..       .. But a new urgency infused the genre in the wake of the 2008–09 financial crisis. This crisis has become a powerful symbol for creators, almost the same way the atomic bomb was for science-fiction writers in the 1950s.  ..        .. In these kinds of stories, set in worlds ripped apart by starvation and war, characters are less concerned with markets than they are with basic survival. Nevertheless, this kind of “dark” science fiction, Levy said, deals with “the foundation of economics, which is scarcity.” ..         ..

EE.UU. Elecciones y cifras de la economía
 

  
✔  Según mi leído esta victoria de Trump y republicanos al Senado o al Congreso tiene 4 motivos principales :
 
° Primer, la economía, ergo la inflación. Esta deriva de varios factores, en sí ciclos comerciales.
En concreto, efectos de la pandemia, disminución del desempleo, tasas de intereses, impuestos, regulaciones, valor del dólar USD en el mercado de divisas…  Las acciones en la bolsa de valores de NY hoy 06/11/24  reaccionaron alcistas, a excepción de los bonos (por miedo a mayores aranceles y recortes de impuestos). Anteriormente Trump ha dicho que nominará a Elon Musk para disminuir el presupuesto estatal, el tamaño del Estado pue’.. Bueno, ahí un modelo de moda a seguir con Javier Milei en  🇦🇷 , y la desatención estatal exacerbante de tantas muertes con la DANA o gota fría en Valencia y otras provincias en España…
La política externa (hacia otros países) juega un rol menor a la hora del estadounidense medio decidir.

° Segundo, la percepción entre gente de a pie de un aumento del crimen callejero. Aunque está por debajo a otras décadas, la gente se olvida, y la campaña Trump capitalizó en marketing vinculándolo falsamente a “inmigrantes ilegales”. Si recuerdan en el debate vice-presidencial, JD Vance alegó que los costos altos de la vivienda se debían al flujo de inmigrantes !! Realidad es que la administración Biden deportó más que la de Trump… pero a la vez el flujo a U$A con Biden fue mayor...
La mayoría de opioides que entran a U$A es a través de contenedores, no por mulas eh.

° Tercero, la abstención o participación electoral baja entre sectores de menor ingreso.
Trump ganó en el condado de Nassau (en el estado demócrata de Nueva York) por casi 5 puntos, y sacó casi ⅔ del voto en Staten Island.
La candidata a la gobernación de Puerto Rico, la estadista o anexionista a   🇺🇸  , Jenniffer González por el Partido Nuevo Progresista (PNP), ganó en las elecciones el 5 de noviembre, frente al independentista Juan Dalmau (del PIP) quien obtuvo el segundo lugar, un precedente para el independentismo en la isla… En una papeleta simbólica (en la isla, por ley no pueden votar por el presidente de  🇺🇸  ), los puertorriqueños votaron 73% a favor de la demócrata Kamala Harris sobre Trump.

° Cuarto, Kamala Harris fue puesta de reemplazo a Joe Biden sin tiempo de elegir a otro candidato / ta..  
Donaldo tendrá ahora más inmunidad frente a los juicios en su contra… ¿Desatará una cacería de brujas  contra sus detractores ?
De un partido o el otro al ejecutivo, cuatro años cruciales más, dentro y fuera del Norte revuelto y brutal (cita de carta inconclusa de José Martí a Manuel Mercado en mayo 1895), en un mapa geopolítico con potencias emergentes.        ◺



✔  Lo siguiente lo puse ayer, 23-3-25, en WhatsApp, con un comentario...          ◺






✔  En este clip el VP   🇺🇸 , autor, abogado, veterano de los Marines (como periodista), JD Vance, apunta hacia los supuestos males de la globalización, conforme a la narrativa de moda MAGA, populachera, sobre un “capitalismo nacionalista, industrial, progresista”. Como si los gobernantes y empresarios fueran tontos sin idea de lo que hacían. Hace una distinción ficticia entre el diseño y la fabricación. Pretende no percibir, que es una sine qua non  en el capitalismo, la búsqueda de mayor ganancia, intrínseco en la división internacional del trabajo... Desde el inicio de esta globalización en los 1970’s (y fin del patrón oro), la tasa de rentabilidad corporativa aumentó dramáticamente.

Vance y compañía predican una fórmula mágica de mayores aranceles, inexorable de deudas (al reducir los impuestos corporativos), poco crecimiento, quiebras (al tampoco haber regulaciones), y a guerras como ocurrió en la I y II guerras mundiales, la guerra civil  🇺🇸 …   JDV vuelve a contradecirse al decir que la mano de obra barata es un impedimento a la innovación… Pero, ¿acaso no dijo previo y luego que en países recipientes del offshoring, llegaron a ser más competitivos en precios e innovación? Yes, en esos donde la mano de obra es más barata…         ◺

What the data says about immigrants in the U.S.
September 27, 2024
.. Mexico is the top country of birth for U.S. immigrants. In 2022, roughly 10.6 million immigrants living in the U.S. were born there, making up 23% of all U.S. immigrants. The next largest origin groups were those from India (6%), China (5%), the Philippines (4%) and El Salvador (3%).  ..       .. Today, Mexico remains the largest origin country for U.S. immigrants. However, immigration from Mexico has slowed since 2007 and the Mexican-born population in the U.S. has dropped. The Mexican share of the U.S. immigrant population dropped from 29% in 2010 to 23% in 2022. ..        .. Most immigrants (77%) are in the country legally. As of 2022: ..       .. In addition, about 500,000 immigrants arrived in the U.S. by the end of 2023 under programs created for Ukrainians (U4U or Uniting for Ukraine) and people from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela (CHNV parole). These immigrants mainly arrived too late to be counted in the 2022 estimates but may be included in future estimates. ..       .. In 2022, most of the nation’s 46.1 million immigrants lived in four states: California (10.4 million or 23% of the national total), Texas (5.2 million or 11%), Florida (4.8 million or 10%) and New York (4.5 million or 10%). ..       .. In 2022, over 30 million immigrants were in the U.S. workforce. Lawful immigrants made up the majority of the immigrant workforce, at 22.2 million. An additional 8.3 million immigrant workers are unauthorized. This is a notable increase over 2019 but about the same as in 2007.  ..

     ..  Truth Social has hired two Mexican programmers through a third-party firm, according to ProPublica. That fact has reportedly roiled the tiny, Florida-based company, which touts on its homepage that it is “Proudly made in the United States of America. 🇺🇸”   ..        .. The former president has, in fact, leaned on foreign investors and patrons for decades: Russian backers reportedly swooped in to save Trump Hotels when the brand faced collapse in the early 2000s, and Trump has done millions of dollars of business with the governments of China, Saudi Arabia, India, Qatar, and Kuwait—some of it while in office.  ..

Candace Owens shuts down her critics in viral moment


✔  Every topic should be taken as a whole, in context, not dissected merely as a short or an extract as she herself claims, that is if one is serious about underlying issues, actions, given the time, and not sectarian political agendas or commercial gains. This short of hers is edited to make her look good and persecuted as a victim, that’s my opinion.
 
As per elements in the clip, the congressional hearing took place in April 2019, regarding hate crimes and White nationalism or extremism. Hitler did described himself and the Nazis as the “National Socialist German Workers' Party”, so now right-wingers opportunistically twist that into meaning “socialists”, without going into history that the Nazis hatched the Reichstag fire in 1933 and blamed the Communists, violently suppressing the Communist party and others, and shredded the Weimar Constitution. The Nazis in fact saw the treatment of Indians & Blacks by the Anglos (Britain & U.S.) as an inspiration for their Holocaust on Jews and others. Nationalists can and do kill, jail, expel, suppress, their own people if deemed fit, as Mr. Trump has called for expelling (and from jobs, universities) those “unpatriotic Americans”, Marxists, socialists… Or when he (the orangy avenger) paid for ads in newspapers back in 1989 calling for the death penalty on the Black kids of the Central Park jogger case. All innocent by the way. Rafael Trujillo in D.R. was a nationalist, yet killed many Dominicans, and thousands of Haitians, OK candid Candace ! The Prager University or PragerU she worked for is a right-wing think tank spouting conservative = capitalist agendas. Other members of PU (pew !) include : Ben Shapiro, Tucker Carlson, Michelle Malkin, etc. All polemicists with ties also to Fox News, Newsmax TV, and down the rabbit hole. Candace has a spot now in The Daily Wire, another conservative media outfit.
 
At the particular congressional hearing she dodges the inquiry whereas the shooter who killed 51 people at 2 mosques in Christchurch in New Zealand (March 2019), had mentioned Owens in his 74-page manifesto… Textually, he, the shooter (Brenton Tarrant, a personal trainer at a gym..) praised : “..Yes, the person that has influenced me above all was Candace Owens.. Each time she spoke I was stunned by her insights and her own views helped push me further..“ Yikes! “Keep pushing me over the borderline” - Madonna ! In her constant search for “the man’s approval”, she dismisses that White supremacists committed 54% of domestic "extremist-related" murders in the past decade, and 78% of such murders in the U.S. in 2018…

 
Guys, goyim, Candace is not a liberal or a democrat (those have their own sets of bias). If you Wikipedia or in other sites her background, you’ll see she’s pretty much conservative, “religious”, capitalist-touting, reactionary. She’s against the theory or fact of evolution (the explanation for biodiversity, extinctions), a denier of fossils, dinosaurs (The Flintstones left that impression on her), and swore that in the U.S. there’s a conspiracy against Jesus Christ or Christians... According to her, this is all the work of Satanists! Has she read John 10: 34, Psalm 82: 6, Genesis 11: 5-7 ? She lashes against government (except for law enforcement, border patrols, etc), “woke-feminism”, and that Brigitte Macron (the French president’s wife) is a trans.. It comes with the package that C.O. is also a climate-change denier, really all kinds of “Nationalist”, Christian-nationalist, crackpot conspiracies. In April 2020, Owens said COVID-19 deaths were overcounted; health experts said that it was otherwise, rather undercounted. In June 2020 she declared "under no circumstances will she be getting any coronavirus vaccine, no matter what”. Referring also to Bill Gates as a "vaccine-criminal", and tagging the World Health Organization (WHO) as using African & Indian tribal children to experiment with non-FDA approved drug vaccines. As you can see, with most of these illuminatis, they’re all over the place, contradicting themselves is no biggie, whichever the political & economic grifter winds blow. Case in point, in 2015 Owens ran a marketing agency on a variety of topics, including a blog where she criticized conservative Republicans and the Tea Party ! In 2016, she launched SocialAutopsy.com, a website she said would expose bullies on the Internet. Both conservatives and progressives though condemned the website as public harassment and doxing. Consequently, by late 2017, Owens started churning pro-Trump material..switching” over to conservatism...
 
Probably she’s one of the reasons why Trump & MAGA politicians captured more votes from Black & Hispanic voters this time around in 2024-25. Interesting yet troubling times.       
 
 
 
 
 


✔ Addition to text above : 
In corporate media, “social media”, much has been said about the financier and child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, and clearly the likes of Owens’ reaction to it reaches new heights. Spinning, mixing truth and conjecture which cater to the MAGA crowds. As far as I know, she hasn’t linked Trump to Epstein, but instead she’s linked Bill Clinton to him... Both ex-presidents knew Jeffrey, socially & business-wise, flight logs show them boarding J.E.’s plane multiple times, though Trump has denied it… But there’s no record of either going to Jiffy Jeff’s island (Little St. James). Candace instead has claimed that P. Diddy’s abuse scandals are even bigger than Jeffrey’s… I dunno how she came up with that scenario...

A look at how Trump’s plan to increase tariffs would affect U.S. workers and consumers
Sep 11, 2024

 
Why Trump’s tariffs could raise grocery prices
November 19, 2024
.. Shoppers have been faced with record high inflation. The COVID-19 pandemic, combined with global conflicts like the war in Ukraine, caused major supply chain disruptions and higher prices—with grocery store prices in 2024 almost 25% higher than pre-pandemic prices, according to Consumer Price Index data. And 6 in 10 voters who said they were “very concerned” about the economy cast their ballots for Trump, according to an AP VoteCast survey.  ..
     .. And there’s another way tariffs could affect costs for taxpayers: imposing them can provoke other countries to implement retaliatory tariffs. After the first Trump Administration placed a series of tariffs on China in 2018, China retaliated by placing tariffs on soybean imports. The U.S. government compensated for losses with a $28 billion aid package for farmers that relied on taxpayer funding.  ..

“.. Si vemos que Alemania está ganando, debemos ayudar a Rusia, y si Rusia está ganando, debemos ayudar a Alemania, y de esa manera dejamos que se maten lo más posible; aunque no quiero ver a Hitler victorioso bajo ninguna circunstancia. Ninguno de los dos piensa nada de su palabra prometida.. ”

LIVE | Trump's surprise World War III speech after Putin's nuclear order

Times Of India
,11-18-24
U.S President Elect Donald Trump's speech on preventing World War 3 as Russia's Putin changes nuclear doctrine after Biden's nod for Ukraine to use US long range missiles to strike deep inside Russia. "We have never been closer to a nuclear WWIII than we are right now," says Trump.


.. We’ve never been closer to WW3.. under Joe Biden.. proxy battle in Ukraine.. all shooting has to stop.. Fire the deep-staters.. put America first.. The lie that Russia represents our greatest threat.. The greatest threat.. more than anything else.. the abolition of our national borders.. failure to police our own cities.. collapse of the nuclear family.. It’s the Marxists.. have us become a godless nation.. The globalist class that has made us totally dependent on China and other foreign countries that basically hate us.. These forces are doing more damage to America than Russia and China could ever have dreamed.. I’m the only one who can do it, I’m the only one that can get the job done ..

What the polls can tell us about the early days of Trump's second term: From the Politics Desk
Feb. 10, 2025
.. Polling broadly shows support for some of Trump’s major priorities. Majorities across multiple polls say they back widespread deportations (59% in a recent CBS News/YouGov poll). And pre-inauguration polling found support for prioritizing domestic problems over international ones and for banning transgender women from playing women’s sports.  ..        .. His decision to pardon those who were convicted of violent crimes related to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol is clearly unpopular, as polls from Pew and The Economist/YouGov show. YouGov polling with both CBS and The Economist found Trump’s proposed tariffs on Mexico and Canada are unpopular, too, and that under one-quarter of those polled want billionaire Elon Musk to have a lot of influence on the Trump administration. And while Trump told “Meet the Press” in December, “I won on the border and I won on groceries,” 66% of Americans said in the CBS News/YouGov poll that the administration isn’t focusing enough on “lowering the prices of goods and services,” despite the economy topping the list of most urgent issues in a recent Quinnipiac University poll. And 51% of Americans in the CBS News/YouGov poll say Trump’s policies will make grocery prices increase, while only 28% think they’ll push prices down. Bottom line: It’s all a reminder that despite Trump claiming a sweeping mandate after an election that put Republicans in full control of Washington, we’re still living in the same divided country we were before Election Day. When Pew asked Americans whether Trump would make government better or worse, 41% said better, 42% said worse ..

How immigrants living in U.S. illegally help finance Social Security benefits
Jan. 19, 2025
This group paid an estimated $25.7 billion in Social Security taxes in 2022, according to a recent analysis from the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy, a left-leaning tax research group. Because workers living in the country illegally cannot collect retirement and other Social Security benefits without a change to their immigration status, the billions they pour into the program effectively act as a subsidy for American beneficiaries.  ..       .. But if the White House does follow through, economists project a broad drag on the economy — and it could cost Social Security roughly $20 billion in cash flow annually, according to actuaries at the Social Security Administration, which sends benefits to 68 million Americans each month, totaling $1.5 trillion last year. ..       .. Workers living in the country illegally are still required to pay taxes on any income earned in the United States, and it’s estimated that at least half of them file federal tax returns. But even if they have contributed to payroll taxes, they are not permitted to collect any Social Security benefits and many other credits, including the earned-income tax credit, which requires that all tax filers and their dependents have valid Social Security numbers. ..        .. But when they file their tax returns, they use another number: the individual taxpayer identification number, also nine digits and known as ITINs. The IRS created them in 1996 to enable people who are ineligible or who do not have Social Security numbers to legally file tax returns and comply with tax laws — say, a student visa holder or certain spouses of people with employment visas. ..

The EU data included record high trade deficits with two members, Germany and Ireland, that Trump advisers complain benefit unfairly from the EU’s value-added tax system.

The US economy is heading for recession
Mar 9 2025
 
 
Donald Trump’s policy agenda is sapping American animal spirits
.. The argument has two components. First, even before US President Donald Trump’s inauguration, the US economy was weaker than many appreciated. I outlined why in an opinion column in August and in an earlier edition of this newsletter, “Debunking American exceptionalism”.   ..
 
 
Are we heading into a recession? Here's what the data shows
Warning signs are flashing. What experts say you should watch for.
March 17, 2025
Trade tensions have torn into the markets. With stocks sliding into correction territory in the last week, a question emerges: Is a recession next? Traders on prediction markets — where people wager on such events as the likelihood of a recession — are increasingly betting on an economic downturn. Polymarket, for example, currently places the odds on a recession in 2025 at 40% — a sharp jump of nearly 20 percentage points in under a month.  ..        .. Consumer spending represents approximately 70% of the country’s gross domestic product. Jeffrey Frankel, an economist at the Harvard Kennedy School and one of the experts who called recessions for the National Bureau of Economic Research, emphasized that consumer spending is one of the earliest and most direct indicators of economic downturn.  ..

 
 
'Deep sense of outrage and betrayal': House Democrats react to Schumer announcement
March 14, 2025
When Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer announced his plans to provide one of the key Democratic votes Republicans need to advance a partisan spending bill, the decision hit like a shockwave among House Democrats. "I think there is a deep sense of outrage and betrayal and this is not just progressive Democrats — this is across the board, the entire party," New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told reporters Thursday night at a party retreat in Leesburg, Va. "I think it is a huge slap in the face," she said.  ..

They voted for Trump. here’s why they feel betrayed
Two-thirds of people in California’s 22nd Congressional district rely on Medicaid. But the majority of the district also voted to elect President Trump in 2024. We went to talk to residents to see what they think about Trump’s proposed cuts to Medicaid. One Trump voter told us: “I feel like they're stabbing us in the back, you know?”

 
Trump up, Dems down in new polls
Mar 16, 2025
More registered voters say the U.S. is heading in the right direction (44%) than at any point since early 2004, though a majority (54%) still say the country is on the wrong track, according to an NBC News poll out this morning. Why it matters: PresidentTrump has enjoyed some of his highest approval ratings in the early days of his second term — though the specifics of his aggressive policies have begun to irk Americans in recent polling.  ..
 

NBC News poll shows the largest number of Americans believe the country is headed in the right direction since 2004

Los aranceles de Trump vuelven a hundir bolsa en tiempo récord
En el episodio de hoy analizamos el impacto real y directo que están teniendo las nuevas amenazas arancelarias de Trump. Mientras él promete una supuesta “liberación económica”, el mercado ya está respondiendo con desplomes, pérdidas de confianza y señales claras de crisis interna. Profundizamos en cómo este movimiento no solo sacude a Wall Street, sino que también acelera la búsqueda global por liberarse de la hegemonía del dólar. Países como China, India y Arabia Saudita están tomando decisiones concretas para evitar depender de un socio tan impredecible. Además, explicamos paso a paso cómo estas decisiones afectan a millones de personas en América Latina, desde los precios de exportación hasta la estabilidad del comercio bilateral. Este episodio va más allá del titular: conecta la geopolítica con tu economía real.

Anger might enhance creative performance
January 27, 2025
.. Overall, the researchers found a weak positive association between anger and creative performance. In other words, angry participants tended to perform slightly better on creative tasks. However, the strength of this association varied significantly both within and between studies. Further analysis revealed that the positive association between anger and creative performance was somewhat stronger in studies conducted on participants from Eastern countries, while it was almost nonexistent in studies on participants from Western countries. More recent studies also showed a stronger association between anger and creative performance compared to older studies. Anger was more strongly associated with malevolent creativity than with general creativity. ..


Trump’s envoy lets loose on the Panama Canal and ‘imminent’ change in Cuba
February 12, 2025
.. In stints at the Treasury Department and National Security Council during Trump’s first term, Claver-Catone took a no-holds-barred approach to diplomacy, backing tougher sanctions on Cuba and organizing an abortive effort to oust Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. As president of the Inter-American Development Bank — where he was ejected in 2022 over misconduct charges that he denied — Claver-Carone also became a fierce opponent of China’s presence in the hemisphere. ..         .. “This is a non-imperialistic expansionism,” he said, even as he went on to hint that the administration would get “very creative” in pushing change inside Cuba.  ..


Western Union anuncia suspensión de remesas a Cuba tras sanciones del gobierno de Trump a la isla
10 Feb 2025
.. Desde marzo del 2023, ORBIT S.A. era la compañía encargada de gestionar una porción de las remesas enviadas a través de Western Union hacia Cuba, aunque el volumen de sus transacciones había disminuido significativamente, debido a la preferencia de los cubanos a recibir los envíos en dólares por el mercado negro o vías alternativas. De hecho, muchos depositan el dinero en Miami y otras ciudades de Estados Unidos, y pocos minutos después sus familiares lo reciben en la isla. ..

These countries could lose the most, if U.S. stops aid
Feb. 26, 2025
The U.S. Agency for International Development, Washington's primary humanitarian aid agency, has been a top target of a government reduction program spearheaded by billionaire and Trump ally Elon Musk since President Donald Trump took office on January 20.   ..         .. The effects of shutting foreign aid down permanently could have impacts globally, especially for countries in Africa and the Middle East. The U.S. has contributed the largest foreign assistance among countries, according to the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development.  ..         .. The majority of USAID programs across the world are non-military in nature. Nearly one-third of all disbursements were for programs in the health sector. Aiding communities living with HIV or AIDS, providing sustainable access to drinking water and sanitation services, improving maternal and child health were among the top programs.  ..         .. After Afghanistan, Ukraine has received the most foreign assistance from the U.S. However, unlike Afghanistan, Ukraine received the majority of its aid from 2022. Before Russia invaded Ukraine, the country had received just over $4 billion between 2014 and 2021. However, since 2022, this figure increased by over nine times. From 2022, it has received nearly $40 billion from the U.S. for all sectors. Now with aid frozen, non-military programs are severely affected as a lot of them depend on the U.S. for its finances.

“Trump ha mentido sobre Zelensky. EEUU impulsó la guerra con la entrada en la OTAN de Ucrania”


✔  1:02 Concuerdo con Eduardo Olier en que Trump erra en acusar a Zelensky de ser culpable de la guerra (en 2024 también lo hizo) en   🇺🇦   sin nombrar a EEUU…  En la mezcla del mal también debe incluirse a Europa.
 
El periódico ucraniano Ukrayinska Pravda  en 2022  reportó en aquel entonces que el primer ministro   🇬🇧   Boris Johnson forzó a Zelensky en abandonar las negociaciones de paz…  Una de las promesas de campaña del desguazado cómico Zelensky (antecediendo al Trump...), y por la cual ganó con aplastante mayoría en 2019, era que terminaría la guerra en el este.
 
11:04   Como dice E.O., Emmanuel Macron (ex-banquero Rothschild) tiene una popularidad bajísima; pero además, disolvió a la Asamblea Nacional  tras su partido recibir una paliza en las parlamentarias a la  🇪🇺  (Unión Europea) en 2024. Discrepo con Eduardo sobre el monto de “ayuda” entre U$A y Europa, pienso que el primero prestó más.  6:40   Claro que en Europa no son niños, pero la mayoría de sus líderes son serviles, solo ver cómo sus economías han decaído al romper relaciones con Rusia por orden del jefe, y calladitos sobre la voladura a los gasoductos Nord Stream 1-2.  Ahora con la oferta de Trump a Ucrania (y posiblemente Rusia) para adquirir tierras raras, temen que los dejen en desventaja, y ahora de nuevo el tanteo de los aranceles   🇺🇸   hacia Europa...

Ukraine officials say terms of major minerals deal with US agreed
02/25/25
.. Media reports say Washington has dropped initial demands for a right to $500bn (£395bn) in potential revenue from utilising the natural resources, but has not given firm security guarantees to war-torn Ukraine - a key Ukrainian demand.   ..        .. On Tuesday, RussianPresident Vladimir Putin said he was open to offering the US accessto rare minerals, including from Russian-occupied regions of Ukraine.   ..        .. There is concern in Kyiv and across Europe that they might be excluded from any negotiations aimed at ending the war, and that the continent's future security as a whole could be decided behind their backs.


ZELENSKI Y TRUMP | La discusión ÍNTEGRA en la reunión sobre Ucrania en la Casa Blanca

✔  Humo y espejos entre caimanes... 1:41 - 3:18 El pobre reprendido Zelensky borra de su bicoca, que tan temprano como 2008, Bush Junior 🇺🇸  en Rumania anunció planes para meter Ucrania y Georgia en la OTAN…  La misma Angela Merkel en diciembre 2022 ( en el periódico semanal Die Zeit ) y Francois Hollande ( al diario ucraniano Kyiv Independent ) admitieron que ambos acuerdos de Minsk (2014, 2015) se llevaron a cabo para darles tiempo a ellos (la OTAN) en rearmar a Ucrania...

7:41 – 8:06 Trump en cambio exaltó que en su primer mandato le entregó misiles antitanques (FGM-148 Javelin) a Ucrania mientras que Obama solo les brindó sábanas… Bueno, a Puerto Rico tras el huracán María el gozón guasón les tiró toallas de papel en 2017

Como sospechamos, el trumpismo coquetea con Rusia para apartarla de China, a la vez que arremete en este hemisferio contra la influencia china (e.g. caso Canal de Panamá, búsqueda de recursos en Groenlandia y el Ártico, anexión o aranceles contra Canadá, la Unión Europea ). Dentro de U$A, más plusvalía para la oligarquía y recortes gubernamentales en agencias sociales (Seguro Social, Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP), educativas, científicas, al correo, servicio de impuestos (IRS), menos regulaciones a corporaciones, y mayores presupuestos para agencias policiales, y sin oposición por el partido demócrata...         ◺


 
Bernie Sanders says calls for Zelenskyy to resign are ‘horrific’
In an exclusive interview with Meet the Press, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) says many Americans are “embarrassed or ashamed” of President Trump’s hostile meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.


✔  0:44    .. I think Kristen Welker and Colonel Sanders  here miss some points.  
Why insist on that western talking point branding Putin as a dictator, when in fact he won elections (even viewed by international observers) against other parties ?   Hey Vern !, the U.S. does not have a monopoly over the concept of democracy OK.  Like it or not Bern, although still positive, Zelensky’s favorability in Ukraine since February 2022 has decreased considerablyApproval for Vladimir Putin in Russia is also higher than Zelensky’s. On February 24th 2025 the United Nations’ General Assembly passed two resolutions (non-binding) reaffirming Ukraine’s sovereignty & territorial integrity, on the need to end the war, but they differed on how to best achieve it, invariably all want an end to hostilities... If you really cared for root causes, most of the world’s population & leaders historically do not view Russia as the sole aggressorBern’, to extrapolate, Israel has received more condemnations in the United Nations than any other, yet the genocide hasn’t stopped, and no sanctions placed on Israel… The U.S. engaged in various invasions, coup d'états, using pretenses, i.e. Yugoslavia, Iraq, Libya, Grenada, Dominican Republic, Vietnam, too many to enumerate, all without U.N. approval and with more civilian deaths than in Ukraine. So again, the West (the U.S.) has a monopoly, carte blanche, over democracy and aggression ?  MOST of the civilian casualties in Ukraine came at the hands of Ukrainian fascists and not Russia...  In any crime one looks for a motive (s). It’s a fact that for decades to now, NATO has moved to the east while Russia has not moved towards the west!  Russia doesn’t need Ukraine’s resources nor Europe’s, but the West sure yearns, maneuvers, for Russia’s and weaken China...  A few precedents, like the 1917-1925 allied invasion in the Russian Civil War...
 
The U.S. does not recognize Taiwan as an independent state, yet despite China’s objections it still provides weapons to itWhy the western double standard when it comes to backing Ukraine as an innocent victim and not Palestine against nuclear Israel ?  Are you gonna deny there’s MASS CORRUPTION on the ‘aid’ funneled / laundered to Ukraine ?   Will you deny there’s been rampant meddling in foreign elections & media by the USAID & NED ?  U.S. politicos (both brands) pontificate on a “rules-based order”, yet for decades at that U.N., the General Assembly votes consistently for lifting the blockade on Cuba, but almighty Uncle $am and pit bull Israel vote against that majority!
 
Step up bro’,  OK  2:23  agreed 100% regarding the Defense Dept, audits, waste. 4:34 on Social Security also agree with cha.  But in all, you Democrats are more outspoken about Trump’s alleged closeness to Russia than you are about his attacks on the public sector & social programs...        ◺

Pete Hegseth opening remarks at the 26th Iteration of the Ukraine Defense Contact Group (transcript-video)
12 February 2025

🤔

On February 12th 2025 at a NATO reunion in Brussels, the  🇺🇸  Secretary of Defense, Peter Brian Hegseth, recites   :   “..Part of this is speaking frankly with your people about how this threat can only be met by spending more on defense. Two percent is not enough; President Trump has called for 5%, and I agree. Increasing your commitment to your own security is a down payment for the future, a down payment, as you said Mr. Secretary, of "peace through strength..         ..We're also here today to directly and unambiguously express that stark strategic realities prevent the United States of America from being primarily focused on the security of Europe. The United States faces consequential threats to our homeland. We must -- and we are -- focusing on security of our own borders. We also face a peer competitor in the Communist Chinese with the capability and intent to threaten our homeland and core national interests in the Indo-Pacific. The U.S. is prioritizing deterring war with China in the Pacific, recognizing the reality of scarcity, and making the resourcing tradeoffs to ensure deterrence does not fail. Deterrence cannot fail -- for all of our sakes..

China responds as US military trains sights on Pacific
Feb 19, 2025
.. "Pivot to Asia" became U.S. foreign policy under the Obama administration, in which the U.S. focused its military, economic and diplomatic resources on Asia to address China's threat. The Biden administration revived and modernized it as the Indo-Pacific Strategy. The Chinese Foreign Ministry's remarks came after U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's speech at the Ukraine Defense Contact Group meeting last week, in which he demanded European allies lead Europe's security as the U.S. "prioritizes its attention" to threats. ..


 
In 1973, CIA analyst Pat Price gave a folder of “UFO bases” he claimed to remote view to Hal Puthoff. A decade later, the Army corroborated the existence of four subterranean, ancient sites — but didn’t report findings over fear of ridicule. I obtained this file, which was previously held offline.

Alien bases in the mountains! The remarkable remote viewing revelations of Pat Price
March 7, 2024
.. Many who are skeptical
It would appear, then, that Pat Price was accurate in what he witnessed during his remote viewing sessions regarding alien bases in mountain locations around the world. However, although many believe Price’s remote viewing information to be accurate and credible, many people are highly critical of both his information and methods. Perhaps of more concern, at least to some, is how similar the information offered by Price is to that found in the book by L. Ron Hubbard, Scientology: A History Of Man. In it, for example, Hubbard highlighted the same locations, offering that each contained “ancient alien bases” that had been operational for thousands of years. To some, this was proof of where Price had obtained his information. To others, it was simply a case of two individuals arriving at the same conclusions, similar to how the subsequent remote viewers had seemingly done. It is perhaps also worth mentioning that Hubbard also made claims of subaquatic alien bases which were also thousands of years old. When we consider that it is widely agreed there is a very real connection between UFOs and the seas and oceans of the planet, we might ask if this is further evidence of Hubbard’s, and indeed Price’s, accuracy.  ..


Decades-old CIA documents on Ark of the Covenant resurface amid classified group text spat
