Part of a GALLUP report. A large percentage of Americans are changing their drinking habits. If you click on the link, you can read the rest of the report. Briefly, the opinion appears to be changing as many more are saying that even drinking in moderation or “one or two drinks a day” is bad […]
– by New Deal democrat In my note yesterday about the July CPI, I noted the transition from the trend where overall inflation ex-shelter was low, and shelter was high but disinflating, to a trend where inflation ex-shelter while still low was increasing, as shelter contributed the most to disinflation. The question was, and will be […]
Having lived near Ann Arbor, I know of University of Michigan, History Prof. Juan Cole. WE did exchange a few emails in the past. I was looking to talk with him and perhaps write about him in Angry Bear. It never came to pass. He is a trustworthy source of information if you are looking […]
Washington D. C. Mayor Muriel Bowser: “While this action today is unsettling and unprecedented, I can’t say that given some of the rhetoric of the past, that we’re totally surprised. I can say to D.C. residents that we will continue to operate our government in a way that makes you proud.” Fact checking Tr__P’s claim […]

When Fujichrome first appeared, I tried it, but the pictures always turned out with a green-blue cast. Kodachrome and Ektachrome ruled. The […]
This is another way to look at the market similar t what New Deal democrat does in his daily reports. Typically this only goes to customers of an investment firm I have my retirement funds with at this time. For those concerned about a c&p, the firm suggests we pass this report along to our […]
TR__p appears to be scrambling in any direction he can to deter any review of the Epstein files which Pam Bondi says his name appears there. Crime in Washington appears to be one avenue. After all, one of the DOGE guys met up with a bunch of young teens who took him to task. It […]

Trump is pissed at Krugman for criticizing Trump’s tariff policy and firing of the BLS person. “Claiming that economic data you don’t like is fraud perpetrated by a deep state conspiracy has been standard practice on the right […]
