Thanks, Julia. It’s definitely people like you who are the draw to make me keep coming back here

It’s also hard because I spent so many years building trust with my followers on Twitter. Here I feel like a stranger

It just makes me so sad! Journalists should be accessible. We represent our readers, and I don’t like blocking and muting on principle

This is an extremely honest answer, and nothing but respect to this person for telling it like it is.

But…. 🙃

Yes, I’ve found Bluesky to have a much higher proportion of vicious responses (not just to me but in general) that also makes me hesitant to post here

Is it way too early to speculate about AOC's foreign/trade policy as president? Yes!

Is it fun to do it anyway? Absolutely!

Based on her remarks in Europe, I took a shot at it.

And even if you don't care what I had to say, you may still like the partial transcript I provided at the end.

Trump wants the Fed to cut rates. Kevin Warsh has bigger plans. Any turbulence that pushes up longer-term rates would clash with the president’s goal of cutting borrowing costs for the government and lowering mortgage rates.

For more than a decade, Kevin Warsh has advocated reining in the Fed’s pivotal role in the nation’s financial markets.

Now, he may finally get the chance to do it. And Wall Street is obsessed with finding out what comes next.

What Does Trump’s Next Fed Chief Really Believe? A childhood job at a racetrack taught Kevin Warsh more than he realized about how to amass power. If he’s confirmed as Fed chair, he’ll have to place his riskiest bet yet.

The odds seem stacked against Kevin Warsh, but the carefully crafted career path he has traveled up to this point suggests he is perhaps uniquely situated to pull off being Trump’s Fed chair

President Trump is taking his feud with the Fed to the next level as his DOJ launches a criminal investigation into chairman Jerome Powell. @vtg2.bsky.social and Ankush Khardori weigh in on the latest developments.

Can This Man Save the Federal Reserve? Christopher Waller probably won’t be the next Fed chair. Trump’s agenda at the central bank may still depend on him.

Meet the man who is likely to be one of the most important forces within the central bank no matter who the next Fed chief is.

"A reading of the public record suggests the kind of things we’re talking about here is whether Powell lied when he said there were “no rooftop gardens” when there will in fact be “vegetated roof spaces,” according to documents the Fed submitted to the National Capital Planning Commission."

Why Powell Isn't Flinching At Trump's Attack If markets really think the Fed is going to base policy on the president's whims rather than what’s best for the economy, it could cause a financial bloodbath.

Four takeaways from the administration’s investigation of Jay Powell.

Do you think a credit card cap would tank the bond market?

You are strangely confident as a human who presumably lived through 2025

Btw, whatever happens Jan. 20, the White House is being explicit about what President Trump is promising

Not sure I understand this take in the context of the past year

Trump says he will temporarily cap credit card rates He said there would be a one-year cap on credit card rates as of Jan. 20.

🚨 FRIDAY NIGHT NEWS: President Donald Trump on Friday announced that he would put a temporary cap on credit card interest rates with a limit of 10 percent, in line with an idea he floated on the campaign trail.
