Popped back into finregland to write about an important debate right now: Will changes to bank supervision make oversight better or worse? politico.com/newsletters/mo…
NEWS: White House is *eliminating* protections for gov’t workers who blow the whistle about illegal acts, per Reuters Translation: Trump can fire federal employees who point out that he’s broken the law. That’s pretty damn dark.
Lost in legitimately major news this weekend is just how inhumane and aggressive ICE's first operations in Charlotte were. Raiding a church, sending folks fleeing into a forest, and leaving kids crying?? thebulwark.com/p/trumps-epste…
"But they're only going after the criminals!"
🚨BREAKING: ICE and Border Patrol agents are already assaulting U.S. citizens in Charlotte, NC… and pretending it’s “routine.” A man was stopped TWICE by agents. He showed his ID the first time, and they left. Then ANOTHER group rolled up, smashed his window, ripped him out…
I like immigrants. I like their food. I like their work ethic. I like it they are different from me. I can’t be the only American who feels this way.
Like clockwork, ICE is already assaulting citizens of Charlotte. I was assured ICE agents were professional and respected citizens x.com/TheJFreakinC/s…
My guy, you are full of shit. Every video ever posted by you lunatics of ICE 'assaulting' citizens show people obstructing their vehicles, obstructing their activity, assaulting the agents etc. Every fucking one of them. You are a victim of propaganda.
Conservative keep assuring me that citizens are safe

News: In written answers to senator Qs obtained by @Semafor, Trump’s FDIC nom says offices created last year to address rampant misconduct at the agency — which he called “the biggest piece of the cultural transformation” in his hearing — are staffed at 40% under his leadership.
This is true, I think there’s also a difference between “transients” (living in DC/NYC/SF/LA for a few years before settling down) and transplants (people who go onto buy houses and raise families which is easier to do in Charlanta/etc).
Another reason that “hot” areas like North Carolina keep getting hotter, while affordable areas like Cleveland struggle to get traction, is more migration -> more transplants -> easier to make friends with other transplants. As opposed to a closed community.
The "stablecoins will destroy bank lending" narrative ignores reality. U.S. banks are sitting on trillions in reserves—they have plenty of liquidity. Meanwhile, most stablecoin demand comes from outside the U.S., expanding dollar dominance globally, not competing with your local…
This is such a despicable lie. From conspiracy theories encouraging people to reject aid, to then cutting off federal matching, there is one side that didn't care for the victims of Helene. Aid got cut off when NC elected a democratic gov and hasn't resumed from feds.
I HAVE HAD IT!!! These same Democrats that are posting all day long about how "outraged" they are over Trump's White House renovation project... ...did not say a DAMN THING about Americans whose home WASHED AWAY in Hurricane Helene and WERE LIVING IN TENTS! I'm done with you.
"In one meeting during the 2024 campaign, Trump said that if it was up to Miller there would be only 100 million people in this country, and they would all look like Miller." nytimes.com/2025/01/16/us/… via @NYTimes
Lord of the Rings bank, founded/funded by Trump allies, receives conditional approval from the OCC in just 126 days.
The Trump administration is preparing a crackdown on liberal political groups — including the funding arm of the Democratic Party — that will utilize the FBI, DHS, IRS and Treasury and Justice departments reuters.com/legal/governme…
A senior White House official accusing a federal judge — appointed by his own boss — of “insurrection” for ruling on a case isn’t just reckless. It’s authoritarian propaganda, plain and simple. Stephen Miller should be fired.
Legal insurrection. The President is the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces, not an Oregon judge. Portland and Oregon law enforcement, at the direction of local leaders, have refused to aid ICE officers facing relentless terrorist assault and threats to life. (There are more…
“Dozens of federal agents raiding an entire apartment building with kids in it just to see what they can find. It’s the most egregious abuse of our basic rights as Americans I've seen in a long time, maybe in my lifetime,” says Chris Hayes. youtube.com/watch?v=vOXOWA…

‘F--- them kids’: ICE agents drag children out of bed, ransack...
🚨What @DHSGov pulled in Chicago on Tuesday is insanely unconstitutional. They raided an apartment building, smashed down every door and dragged entire families into the street, and detained everyone for hours ("Kavanaugh stops"). One U.S. citizen was held for FIVE HOURS.
This is the text that workers at the Small Business Administration are being asked to make their out-of-office message for the duration of the shutdown, the Prospect has learned. Some are refusing.
Senior Appropriator Rep. Steve Womack, a Republican from Arkansas: Why would Dems negotiate on funding if you know it’s “going to be subject to the knife pulled out by Russ Vought?” @JAscholtes politi.co/3KkE0j
🚨 FULL TEXT OF DELETED 2024 DOJ STUDY THAT SHOWS DOMESTIC TERRORISTS ARE LARGLY RIGHT WING. - Trump’s DOJ deleted a DOJ STUDY from 2024 that showed domestic terrorists are mostly right wing. I wonder why Trump DOJ wouldn’t want this out there…. web.archive.org/web/2025091116…
