I just called my #NewMexico Senators to tell them to reject any so-called deal that does not firmly protect tax credits for health insurance now. Pls call if you live in NM, and leave messages making the point.

@jef I said exactly this to @paco earlier. Charlie Brown with the football. Republicans are 100% liars and will always be bad faith negotiators.

"Senators near deal to reopen government as key Democrats signal willingness to fall for the same old trick once again."

Have you heard about this?

"As the govt shutdown drags on, buildings at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center (HQ for the Webb telescope among other missions) are being emptied without notice. Highly specialized equipment is at risk of being thrown away like trash."

Any promises made by the Senate GOP when the government is shut down are null and void once it reopens.

Scientists have discovered that it is possible to just do something, without making a podcast about it

@jonburkeUK You can’t afford a coal mine. You can’t afford a gas turbine. You can’t afford an oil rig. Only fossil fuel states and billionaires can. But you can afford a solar power station on your roof. Now, ask yourself why you encounter so much anti-renewable energy propaganda.

Three years ago, I decided to quit Twitter and install a Mastodon server to see if it can replace it for me. It worked better than expected and I discoered so many new amazing people along the way.

A satirical poster at a London bus stop on Nutfield Close features a bold message reading, “IMAGINE HAVING A TRILLION DOLLARS AND STILL BEING THE WORLD’S BIGGEST LOSER,” above an image of a man making a sarcastic expression. A red double-decker bus with the destination “Waltham Cross 279” passes by on the street, and autumn trees line the background. Created by the anonymous artist collective everyonehateselon_, this piece humorously critiques billionaire culture and public perception of extreme wealth.

Private sector data confirm US slowdown Since the government isn't publishing any data, I decided to create a composite index of what time series we do have from the private sector. It is composed of the whole economy ISM and PMI indices, the University of Michigan's consumer sentiment index, the logistics managers' index, ADP job changes and Challenger job losses (inverted). The pattern is familiar--I've talked about it before. A nascent recovery through 2024 in response to rate cuts stops dead in its tracks when Trump starts his tariff follies, then rallies a little because the tariff effects are lagged, but starts declining again as tariffs (and deportations and welfare cuts and healthcare) really start to bite. This indicator suggests that, at best, the economy is somewhat worse this year than last. But if current trends continue, it will be substantially weaker over the next few months, year on year. Can Fed rate cuts help? Yes, eventually. But economies lag changes in interest rates by 12 to 18 months. Current rate cuts won't undo the damage caused by Trump's policies until late 2026.
