'I see everyday #politicians repeat like parrots #economic propositions they don't even start to understand, defending a model that a central #bank admitted was wrong over twelve years ago. ... The #Greens propose actual structural change and get labelled "communist" by people who have never read a balance sheet or a #Lenin text. The heterodox approach #predicted #2008, predicted the #housing #crisis, and predicted the current private #debt trap. The orthodox models predicted none of it ...'
'The orthodox model was declared wrong by the Bank of #England in 2014. Their paper “#Money Creation in the Modern Economy” stated plainly: #banks do not lend out deposited #reserves in a multiplier chain. Banks create #deposits when they make #loans ...'
(NZ's Social Credit Party got a Court to agree five decades earlier.)
'The consequences are not theoretical or academic. When you worship the wrong model, you can’t do anything else than design the wrong #policy. You pretend not to see the #monopoly extracting over 6 billions from a #mortgage market they control 87% of. You don’t see that raising rates shift #income from #borrowers to banks and does not touch the supply of housing stock. You end up believing the #household metaphor is literal — that the Crown pockets are empty — when #NZ’s #Crown debt is 44% of #GDP...'
(The OECD average is about twice that.)

Trump Attacks Nation’s Top Scientific Body Over #Climate Chapter in Manual
The president joined Republican officials who slammed the #NationalAcademiesOfSciences for a chapter about climate science in an educational guide for #judges. The chapter in question provides an overview of climate science, including how #carbondioxide and other gases trap heat in the atmosphere, and how human activity has disturbed that natural cycle.

In 2015, John Oliver discussed the problems created by electing judges during a segment for his program LastWeekTonight.
Oliver discussed how some ads in judicial campaigns fail to make substantive arguments relevant to the campaign, while others can be wildly misleading.
Oliver also discussed how fundraising for judicial campaigns can create conflicts of interest.

Many people are worried about the corrupting influence of money in politics.
Wealthy people, powerful corporations, and well-financed special interests often spend large amounts of money to influence the outcome of important elections.
Candidates running for elected judicial positions need to raise money to finance their campaigns, and their campaign advertising, just like candidates running in any other election.

Last month, 3 #ICC #judges sued #Trump & his admin over #sanctions imposed on them last year, arguing the measures were unlawful.
The #State Dept official on Monday said Secretary of State #MarcoRubio & other top #US officials are pressuring other countries as part of a campaign "to diplomatically isolate the International Criminal Court & ensure it cannot target Americans."

REMEMBERING REALITY
The mind comments on everything.
It names, judges, explains, defends, and turns each moment into a story.
The story keeps changing.
One moment fear.
The next certainty.
Then blame, hope, memory, or anticipation.
“NO COMMENT” ends that movement.
It does not argue with the mind.
It simply stops feeding it.
And when the shifting commentary is no longer covering everything up, what remains is:
REALITY.
Not created.
Not discovered.
REMEMBERED.

The Séance Court: Original Intent and the Fraud of Speaking for the Dead
Nine lawyers in black robes sit in a marble temple in Washington and commune with the dead. They ask James Madison, silent since 1836, how he feels about bump stocks. They ask a Virginia planter to rule on geofence warrants and a Boston merchant to weigh encrypted messaging, and they transcribe the answers with straight faces into the United States Reports. Every other corner of American life has a name for this ritual. When a widow pays for it in a candlelit parlor, we call it a séance and we call the medium a fraud. When five justices perform it in October Term, we call it originalism, and law schools award tenure for defending the candles. […] -

No presidential contests in #US history have been as thoroughly investigated as the #2020election. Over more than five years, every #ConspiracyTheory from #Trump & his allies — including false claims about election workers, mail ballots & election machines — has been investigated & debunked by #election officials from both political parties &, in many cases, by members of #Congress, #judges & #LawEnforcement.

Legally, the cases are different. Ms. Albanese, who only submitted information to the #ICC, challenged the #sanctions against her on #FirstAmendment grounds.
The lawsuit filed on Wednesday is intended, in part, to push back on what the #judges believe is the punitive way in which the #Trump admin is using sanctions.

The suit also argues that the #State & #Treasury Depts violated the Administrative Procedure Act, which prohibits decisions that are “arbitrary & capricious.” These #sanctions fall into that category, according to the lawsuit, which argues that the State Dept has not even shown that the #judges fall within the category of people against whom sanctions have been authorized.

Over the next months, the list of sanctioned #judges on the #ICC grew. In June, Secy of #State #MarcoRubio announced sanctions on 4 judges, incl’g Alapini-Gansou & Bossa, for issuing arrest warrants against Israeli leaders.
In Aug, ofcls added 2 judges to the list, incl’g Prost. She was targeted for her role in authorizing an investigation into #US military personnel at secret #CIA sites in the years after the Sept 11, 2001, attacks. The admin then imposed sanctions against 2 more judges in Dec. -

If successful, the lawsuit could curb the #US government’s ability to use #sanctions to punish #judges for making rulings it disagrees with.
Ms. Prost is joined in the suit by Judge Reine Alapini-Gansou from Benin & Judge Solomy Balungi Bossa from Uganda. A copy of the newly filed complaint was provided to The New York Times by one of the judge's lawyers.
