Inflation Falls
Alan Reynolds beat me to it, with an excellent analysis of the latest inflation numbers. Alan notes that “CNBC, like others, reported that ‘The consumer price index accelerated 8.3% in April.'” No it didn’t. It rose by 8.3 percent from the same time last year. But the CPI rose by 0.33 percent in April. Compare […] The post Inflation Falls appeared first on Econlib. read more

The Biden DOJ response to Abortion insurrection
Amber Athey: ... The Biden Department of Justice, which recently announced new “climate cops” to police pollution, created a threat tag for parents who organized recalls of local school board members, and sought to “make an example” of a non-violent January 6 protester with a four-plus year sentence, had lain dormant in the face of a blatant attempt to undermine the judicial process. There has been no indication they will assist in attempts to find the leaker of the draft opinion, nor are there flyers at every bus stop seeking identification of the pro-abortion protesters rallyi... read more
Will Supreme Court Let Bayer-Monsanto Off the Hook for Cancer-Causing Glyphosate Herbicide Roundup?
In June of 2020 it was announced that Bayer-Monsanto had reached the "largest settlement in pharma history" by agreeing to pay $10 Billion to settle about 125,000 lawsuits by people who died or came down with cancer from glyphosate poisoning, the main ingredient in Roundup, the world's most heavily used herbicide (weed killer) that is found in most food today. But there is one lawsuit that Bayer has contested, where plaintiff Edwin Hardeman was awarded $80 million in damages due to having non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), a known side effect to too much exposure with glyphosate. The tri... read more

The Russian retreat from Ukraine
Streiff: ... As I’ve pointed out many times, the Russians attempt to do too much with too few assets. This diffusion of effort results in their inability to muster overwhelming force at the critical point on the battlefield. Even now, with Russia on the glideslope to technical and numerical inferiority, we see four separate operations underway. There is one operation centered on Kharkiv, one on northern Donbas, a third on southern Donbas, a fourth around Kherson, and politicians pushing for a fifth campaign to take Odesa and create a land bridge that connects Russia to Donbas, ... read more

Democrats finally get their FTC majority back
Federal Trade Commission chair Lina Khan. | Graeme Jennings/AFP via Getty Images With the confirmation of Alvaro Bedoya, FTC chair Lina Khan is free to carry out her vision. It took eight months of hearings, nominations, health-related delays, and a tie-breaking vote from the vice president, but the Senate has confirmed Alvaro Bedoya as the Federal Trade Commission’s fifth commissioner. More importantly — and almost certainly why his confirmation was such a drawn-out and contentious process — he’s its third Democrat, and soon will likely be a deciding vote himself.

Senate vote fails to ratify Dems' abortion policy
Washington Examiner: Senate Democrats’ effort to codify *Roe v. Wade *into federal law failed Wednesday. An unprecedented *leak of a draft opinion* from the Supreme Court last week suggested that the court may soon strike down its own 1973 decision in *Roe* that legalized abortion nationwide. In response, Senate Democrats brought legislation to the floor they said would codify the standard set by the decision into federal law. But the effort was doomed from the start, as they did not have the votes to meet the 60-vote filibuster threshold to clear a procedural vote to advance t... read more

Labour's Electoral Discomfort
Last Thursday's local elections were bad for the Conservatives. *Very bad*.

Gains, in case folks stopped paying attention, that got more modest as the weekend wore on.

World Peace And Relief For Ukrainians Must Guide Early Resolution Of Crisis
For most people worldwide, the most obvious aspect of the new crisis that has gripped our already deeply troubled planet is that the war should end immediately. Such a strong feeling is based on concerns of world peace as well on reducing the distress of people of Ukraine. At the same time the wider and longer-term aspects of the crisis cannot be ignored. Eminent academic Richard Falk, Professor Emeritus of International Law at Princeton University has suggested very rightly that the Ukraine crisis should be seen to be consisting of not one but three wars at three levels— Russia-... read more

Obama And Liberals Killed Abortion Rights
On May 2, 2022, a memo written by Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was leaked to Politico.com .
