Finance, markets, EVs. Spending 10% less to help start a consumer-led recession, to cause stocks to fall and stop Trump.

Miscarriage Is Increasingly Dangerous for Women in Texas, Our Analysis Shows. Here’s How We Did It. Using seven years of hospital discharge data, we found that the number of blood transfusions during emergency room visits for first-trimester miscarriage shot up by 54% since Texas banned abortion.

Our analysis, which shows that more women nearly bled to death during miscarriage after Texas banned abortion, adds to a growing body of reporting revealing that maternal outcomes have gotten worse under bans.

5/ And on the Strait of Hormuz, they had NO PLAN. I can't go into more detail about how Iran gums up the Strait, but suffice it say, right now, they don't know how to get it safely back open.

Which is unforgiveable, because this part of the disaster was 100% foreseeable.

4/ Ok, so what ARE the goals? It seems, primarily, destroying lots of missiles and boats and drone factories.

But the question that stumped them: what happens when you stop bombing and they restart production?

They hinted at more bombing. Which is, of course, endless war.

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.

I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.

Two decades later, retained 3rd graders were less likely to graduate and earned less money as young adults. A Texas analysis finds a short-term test-score boost after third grade retention, followed by fading gains and worse outcomes in adulthood. It’s a warning at a time when more states expand retention l...

New: There's a lot of enthusiasm for tough early-grade retention policies, modeled after Mississippi. And there's some good reason for this.

But a new study complicates matters: In Texas, retained third graders were far less likely to finish HS as a result.

Kinda surprised oil is only at an $87 handle. After all the lying by the administration, the markets seem to believe Trump can still save them.

You have to wonder if Trump and all gave a single thought of how badly this war would affect their midterm elections.

β€œThe risk of attacks are too high”. So, even the US Navy is too chicken to go through the Strait. Good luck to oil tankers.

You could read it as:

β€œPlease don’t mine the Strait because we really don’t have a way to stop you, and that would be bad for our gas guzzling economy”
