This quote, word for word, is a testament to the unselfconscious power of psychological projection.

White House statement tonight: “President Trump does not bluff. He is prepared to unleash hell. Iran should not miscalculate again.” “Iran has been defeated militarily. Any violence beyond this point will be because Iran refused to understand they have already been defeated.”

É plausível supor que o Irã tenha conseguido atingir esse avião dos EUA com ajuda da Rússia.

New image reportedly showing the USAF E-3 Sentry destroyed in an Iranian attack at Prince Sultan Airbase on Friday. Matches 81-0005, an E-3C seen deployed to the base in recent weeks.

Anybody else out there in an editorial board for an Elsevier journal being asked to sign a contract with the company that stipulates a number of obligations and waivers of rights on the editors and obliges Elsevier to nothing? I'm really not inclined to sign.

All of Bangladesh’s fertiliser plants are fully shut — in a country of more than 170 million people to feed.

This image from the @FT shows how the war in Iran could have dramatic effects on global food security. Without natural gas, ammonia and urea—key nitrogen fertilizers—cannot be produced. Without them, crop yields collapse.

@RubaAlHassani @JustaCoinToss No, he was too busy putting up the “open” sign on his shop window.

Did you offer condolences to Iran following the US attack that killed ~200 children, or is empathy selective, based on investments??
Mark Carney@MarkJCarney
Canada shares its condolences with the UAE following the latest Iranian attack that took the lives of two civilians in Abu Dhabi. We strongly condemn Iran’s unprovoked attacks on the UAE and across the region, and reiterate the importance of opening secure access through the Strait of Hormuz. Canada supports efforts to safeguard international shipping and ensure freedom of navigation.

Just walked out of a House Armed Services briefing on Iran. Let me repeat: I will not support troops on the ground in Iran, even more so after this briefing.

The most remarkable feature of economic reality is how neatly it configures itself as homogeneous linear effects of observables on mean outcomes, with all latent heterogeneity and interaction structures reducing themselves to sufficiently well-behaved error terms. 🙄#EconTwitter

When middle powers work together, we can do even more than protect ourselves and our sovereignty — we can build something better, more prosperous, and more just than what came before.

Does the dollar's reserve-currency status lead to US deficits? Short answer: it's complicated. The world economy runs on dollar debt (Treasuries and such) and demand for dollars militates against the correction of US imbalances. Economists and policymakers find comfort in straightforward causal explanations when in fact most problems are overdetermined.

There are many flawed arguments that can be made based on BoP identities, sure. The view that cet. parib. the USD’s reserve status generally supports higher USD valuations for any given US BoP/financial position, making it easier to sustain LT trade deficits, is NOT one of them.
Gita Gopinath@GitaGopinath
The view that the dollar’s reserve currency status is responsible for its deficits is a terribly flawed view.

1/4 I am a little surprised by these comments from the governor of the PBoC. According to Yicai, yesterday he said that "the world’s major deficit countries are the same as 40 years ago because of the inherent flaws in the international monetary system." yicaiglobal.com/news/major-def…
