Cop: "How many beers have you had, Ben?" Me: "Just the one, officer" Meredith, from the other room: "Are you talking to a make-believe police officer in there? Are you drunk?" Me: "Yes...and yes"

If you didn’t know that he’s an insane racist, you’d think that Stephen Miller was proudly describing the best thing about America

A question I would like answered is whether Larry Summers blew a billion-dollar hole in Harvard's endowment with an interest rate swap trade in 2006 because he thought it was a good idea, or because his very good friend Jeffrey Epstein, who was dabbling in rates at the time, did

A wild plot twist I was not aware of until today: JE's redemption from Bear Stearns High-Grade Structure Credit Strategies Enhanced Leverage fund (real heads know this one) due to his impending arrest might have, uh, actually been the proximal cause of the GFC?
