Obamas Fire Up Democrats, Slam Trump at DNC | Bloomberg The Pulse 08/21/24

Barack and Michelle Obama delivered blistering critiques of Republican nominee Donald Trump while painting Vice President Kamala Harris as the heir of their historic political legacy in addresses that capped the second night of the Democratic National Convention. They said the groundbreaking candidacy of the first woman of color to lead a major party presidential ticket had returned joy and hope to national politics. Meanwhile, Walmart Inc. raised about $3.6 billion by selling its stake in Chinese e-commerce firm JD.com Inc., winding down an eight-year partnership that appears to be paying diminishing returns amid a challenging landscape for Chinese tech giants.

I love how Bloomberg has 24/7 coverage of Monkeypox. Must be a lot of libertines in their demographic. Maybe you could squeeze in time for a political economist or two, sometime, maybe?

The left wing and the right wing belongs to the same bird. Love is the absence of controlling another. It is antigovernment. It does respect others boundaries. Sheep will allow others who don't serve as president. - prophecy of Daniel Speights aka the Jesus. With all the evidence an educated person needs to accept.
