Russia Strikes Ukrainian Power Plant After Trump Claims Energy Ceasefire (r/worldnews)
- Somhlth: Assuming the American public gets their collective heads out of their asses, and hands all things Republican the defeat they deserve, it will take decades for the US to regain any kind of respect on the world stage. And it this point, it’s still a toss up about their collective heads.
- wirerc: Trump has disgraced and debased America so thoroughly, pimping it for a tiny hit of diesel fuel that won’t make any difference. It’s equivalent to 2 days of US exports (not even consumption) spread over months. Diesel is up because oil is up, because of his Iran war.
- Otherwise-4PM: Donald meant a ceasefire for Ukraine only, Russia is still allowed to attack.
Trump announces partial ceasefire in Ukraine war as Zelenskyy says deal is ‘news to me’ (r/worldnews)
- x_gesso: The USA is such an embarrassment.
- Nifey-spoony: I like watching Trump destroy himself.
- canigetanorderlyline: Reminder. Donald Trump is a rapist.
Milei’s economic bloodletting: Argentina loses 32,300 companies and 437,000 jobs since his rise to power (r/Economics)
- HesitantInvestor0: No one in their right mind could have thought Argentina could get their inflation rate down from the triple digits without some kind of trade off. Not saying it’s worth it, probably depends person to person. But you don’t get to fix a major problem without affecting something else.
- RudeAndInsensitive: According to the libertarians I talked to on reddit at the time of his rise his policies would take time to bare fruit. You can’t just reshape entrenched economic systems of partisan favors, nepotism and welfare in a year after all. Now those people never had an answer for how long it would take but my speculation is probably one generation minimum. So good luck Argentinians.
- Clear-Role6880: Pre milei - 200% inflation
Post milei - 30% inflation
US consumer sentiment near record low as frustration over economy mounts (r/Economics)
- handsoapdispenser: Consumer sentiment is very strongly tied to politics. Sentiment by party affiliation flipped almost instantly over the last two elections. That’s why it’s called “sentiment”. Actually spending numbers have been pretty steady outside of the pandemic.
- Little-Somewhere6076: > Sentiment deteriorated sharply this month among lower-income consumers and those with smaller stock portfolios, the University of Michigan said on Friday
There isn’t an even distribution. The headline is misleading - Whaddduptho: Consumer sentiment isn’t something I care about. We’re at a point where we can check how much is in your bank account, if you carry debt, if you’re delinquent, and we can look at how retail sales are doing, so what is the point?
US threatens to block arms for Ukraine over attacks on Russian refineries (r/UkrainianConflict)
- Vladx35: Every week, Trump proves he’s a bigger piece of shit than everyone had already thought. Quite impressive really.
- Mariopa: Trump does not have good cards anymore. They cut so much support so far and Ukraine has adopted. I wish him to reap what he sowed.
- Lopsided-Buy-3437: “The US does not make contributions to the fund”
So how exactly do you threaten to revoke arms sales that you don’t finance? All this will do is give European arms makers more clout.
Maybe figure out how to end the mess you started in the Middle East that caused the price spike.
