Some context around this, from a markets person. Historically in LatAm, leftist victories have led to sharp losses over the ~3 months after an election where the left wins. Stocks also typically underperformed into those victories. But 3y post-election, returns for leftists have been *higher*.
It's very, very telling, I think, that the markets are so concerned about the pro-democracy incumbent winning

It certainly says something™️ when the DSA’s “red line” prohibits association with pro-two state solution groups and does not prohibit supporting Russian imperialism.
At the 2025 DSA national convention, DSA voted to pass Resolution 22, which sets red lines for candidates and members. Candidates who don't support BDS or work with Zionist groups are ineligible for endorsement & members who actively oppose BDS could face expulsion. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

The fact that the president's doctors are giving him the dementia test over and over again -- tracking his decline, most likely -- and that the president keeps bragging about having to take that test should be a five-alarm fire.
Trump: "You know, the first question -- they have a lion, a snake, a giraffe, and a bear. And they say 'which is the snake?' ... by the time you get to number five a lot of people are left out on the road ... I get no credit for it."

The generation that got to buy cheap houses thanks to a postwar construction boom, then blocked new housing construction to juice their asset values is now whining that they have to pay taxes on their unearned wealth. Just breathtaking selfishness.

unfortunately it’s mostly helping young people in rural/conservative communities become hitler
A hill I will die on: people slag off social media (and more generally, the internet), but the way it helps 1) young people esp. in rural/conservative places understand they’re not alone & 2) adults keep their chosen family, friends & support networks with them at all times is massively underrated.
hamilton and burr’s seconds turned their backs so they could say they saw no shots fired under oath. probably relevant here

this means at least one of four things. he doesn’t plan to live much longer, he plans to stay in office longer, he thinks he won’t get prosecuted or the person filing this is a fucking idiot
Trump *himself* filed a financial disclosure form this year that asserted he made over a billion dollars last year. That's not a claim from the fake news, or the crazy liberals. That is Trump's own filing.
