Trump’s poll numbers are in the toilet, and members of his own party are running from him. There’s not much good news to report, so he’s punishing the press for reporting reality.

Ignoring Trump’s demands, the Federal Reserve just raised interest rates for the first time in three years—hiking its benchmark rate by a quarter point to a target of 3.75% to 4.0% as it battles persistent inflation.
This could mean higher borrowing costs for mortgages, auto loans and credit cards.

Heerlijk essay www.volkskrant.nl/boeken/franc...
Francis ‘End of History’ Fukuyama geldt sinds 9/11 als naïeve wensdenker. Maar had hij niet juist gelijk?
Toen de Twin Towers instortten, werd politicoloog Francis Fukuyama het mikpunt van spot, met zijn theorie over het einde van de geschiedenis in een frictieloze wereld. Toch had hij best een punt.
