ECP NetHappenings The Economy Today

The economy today is rigged against working people and young people.

National debt surpasses $34 trillion for the first time ever.

SEC schedules meetings today with New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq, & Cboe to finalize comments on Spot #Bitcoin ETFs, Fox Business reports.

Bernie Sanders has said:

The Boomer generation needed just 306 hours of minimum wage work to pay for four years of public college.

Millennials need 4,459. 

 

Yesterday two trump republicans judges ruled that Texas doctors aren’t obligated to perform emergency abortions even to save a woman’s life.

When Democrats voted twice to restore Roe v Wade every single republican in Congress voted no and invited this vicious cruelty to women.

“Barbara Fried’s die-hard determinist materialism.
In her own work as recently as circa 2013, these beliefs led Fried to the perverse conclusion that no human should be morally blamed for their bad actions. The irony is, yeah, obvious.
Determinist and rationalist ideas were clearly passed on to Sam, in a near-systematic way. They are upstream from the “consequentialist” ethics that ultimately led Sam to EA, and that led him to believe there was no ethical justification for not lying and stealing.”

Bill Barr’s Father Donald Barr (August 8, 1921 – February 5, 2004)
was an American educator, writer, and Office of Strategic Services (OSS) officer. He was an administrator at Columbia University before serving as headmaster at the Dalton School in New York City and the Hackley School in Tarrytown, New York.
“Donald Barr would hire young people, and not necessarily young people who had a lot of credentials,” Semel says. Epstein was 21 when he started teaching at the school and had no college degree. Donald Barr, father of U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr, hired Jeffrey Epstein as a teacher, served as his mentor, and wrote a novel about men raping teenage girls. … Donald Barr was headmaster of Dalton School in New York City until the summer of 1974. In September 1974, Jeffrey Epstein began working as a maths and physics professor at the school.

“Disgraced Wall Streeter Jeffrey Epstein was arrested last week for his alleged involvement in the sex trafficking of minors. Epstein’s past, and how he made his money, remains murky, but details have continued to emerge about his history. We do know that Epstein briefly taught at the Dalton School, a private co-educational school on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, in the early 1970s. Students in his classes at the time, who wished to remain anonymous, described Epstein to Yahoo Finance as a young man who “dressed flamboyantly,” with a “thick New York accent” who was “very high energy and dynamic.”
Donald Barr, Dalton’s headmaster and father of Attorney General Bill Barr, hired Epstein to teach math and science.

“What we’ve all been wondering,” one of Epstein’s former students said, “is how did this guy get his job in the first place, without a degree.”

A Trump campaign adviser has been INDICTED in DC on information for failing to register as a Foreign Agent for Qatar. DoJ launched the probe in 2021. “Information” can mean cooperation or a plea deal.
Barry Bennett, who was an unpaid advisor, lunched a group called Yemen Crisis Watch to embarrass Qatar’s rivals. He also launched Avenue Strategies to sell access to Trump. Doug Watts, another veteran of Ben Carson’s 2016 campaign and ally of Barry Benett, has also been charged with FARA-related violations.

BOOM: Audio involving Senator Ron Johnson is being investigated by prosecutors.
Prosecutors in Michigan, Nevada and Wisconsin are investigating new evidence (audio below) that implicates Ron Johnson in Donald’s fake elector scheme. The best part: Donald can NEVER pardon him.
Trump attorney Kenneth Chesebro is now cooperating with investigators

Black Robe Regiment pastor Bill Cook shared a stage w/ convicted Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes, Mike Flynn, & other far right Christian leaders during the pro-Trump “Jericho March” rally on 12/12/20. Cook wore an Oath Keepers shirt. This is MILITANT Christian Nationalism.
@RightWingWatch
Christian nationalist Bill Cook declares that the separation of church and state is “tyranny” and asserts that Christians should not accept it, insisting that there is no “country on Earth that is contrary to the Kingdom of God.”
TRANSLATION:
Do it-even if it’s WRONG! Because “god” says so…

The Christian Nationalist Church is already subsidized by not paying taxes, even though they are a political arm of the GQP.

How much more before we finally expel @SenatorMenendez?

Tether founder Brock Pierce defaults, loses hotel, sues partner
Brock Pierce, the co-founder of controversial ‘stablecoin’ Tether, is suing his former business partner Joseph Lipsey III over control of the W resort in Puerto Rico, according to reporting from Bloomberg.
Pierce originally acquired a majority stake in the hotel in 2021. He then took a line of credit from Lipsey III, who made his fortune in trucking, to buy out the other owners.

Tether executives have brushed shoulders with crime since its inception

  1. Breaking: A pattern is emerging. Other funds registered as securities already trading on the NASDAQ are amending their prospectuses that they can now expose 15-50% of their AUM to Bitcoin, through the Spot Bitcoin ETFs.
    @saylor called it.

  2. BREAKING: Billionaires and centimillionaires held $8.5 TRILLION in untaxed, unrealized capital gains in 2022.
    Unrealized gains are the largest source of income for the ultra-rich—but they’re completely UNTAXED under our tax code.
    This is why we need a billionaire income tax
    Billionaires and centimillionaires now hold 700% of the amount of unrealized gains they held in 1989.
    https://twitter.com/4TaxFairness/status/1742622022973157782

    Today, over half of billionaire and centimillionaire wealth is made up of these untaxed gains, with each centimillionaire holding an average $132 MILLION.
    That’s about 3,000x more than is held by the median American household.

    In fact, billionaires and centimillionaires now hold as much in unrealized capital gains as the entire bottom 84% of American society—roughly 110 MILLION households. But it gets even more unequal.

    Most of the capital gains held by the median American household is in their PRIMARY RESIDENCE—upon which they DO pay annual property taxes.

    Meanwhile, less than 4% of unrealized capital gains held by the ultra-wealthy is in real estate.
