@heidirediker.bsky.social and I wrote this for @alphaville.ft.com - US intervention in Argentina sends a worrying signal about politicizing US financial firepower. Are Fed swap lines next? IMF quotas should be increased to prepare for the next crisis. on.ft.com/4pPdCOz

My take in @usnews.com on the opportunity for a third party to change American politics, if it can deny either party a majority in the House and act as king-maker.

My piece on tariffs for @brookings.edu from December in which I argued Trump threats should be taken seriously and warned of the likely negative impacts to the US and global economy. It’s even worse than I predicted. www.brookings.edu/articles/the...

In Bipartisan Appeal, Obama Praises McCain and Powell In a major bipartisan appeal on the eve of his inauguration, Barack Obama called John McCain a hero and praised his history as someone who had sought common ground.

Flashback: On the eve of his first inauguration 16 years ago tonight, Obama attended a bipartisan dinner honoring his defeated rival McCain. archive.nytimes.com/thecaucus.bl...

President Biden claiming Japan's investment in an American steel company is a threat to national security is a pathetic and craven cave to special interests that will make America less prosperous and safe. I'm sorry to see him betraying our allies while abusing the law.

Trump Wanted Shutdown to Happen on Biden’s Watch, Not His The president-elect was eager to evade responsibility for the consequences of a potential shutdown even as he blew up a bipartisan deal that would have kept the government open.

Trump blew up the initial bipartisan spending deal and then tried to blame Biden. But it didn't work. Instead, dozens of House Republicans blocked his bid to avoid having to raise the debt ceiling in his early months in office. Michael Shear Maggie Haberman www.nytimes.com/2024/12/20/u...

A good read by @davidjlynch.bsky.social on Trump's economic saber rattling aimed at protecting the US dollar from a threat that doesn't exist.
