OK friends, this is serious. I know we all want Trump out of the White House, and it looks like the establishment Dems and the MSM are set to make him the nominee. They are white washing his record on war, racism, poverty, inequality, finance etc.1/n
This man is a warmonger with the blood of thousands of innocent Iraqis and US soldiers on his hands. He did the dirty work in the Senate to give W Bush the authorization to invade Iraq in 2003. Watch this if you care, and vote your conscience. 2/n
If you choose Biden, this one is on you!
And if this doesn't make you as angry as Bernie, then you should vote for Biden. 3/3

I get asked questions like this all the time "Is #MMT consistent with a post-capitalist system? #Socislism? #Imperialism? XYZism?"
MMT is compatible with any political system. 1/n
#MMT is an analytical approach that carefully estimates how much fiscal policy space a country has to meet its national priorities without causing #inflation. 2/n
Those national priorities are determined by a political system that can be participatory/dictatorial/fascist/capitalist/socialist/communist, or whatever. 3/n

So if you have any doubt about this being a #ParadigmShift, check this out. A colleague from the humanities is teaching a social science class this semester. She decided to introduce her students to different theories about #money. 1/n
Naturally (dare I say?), a basic intro to #MMT was in order. One of the sources was episode 2 of the @MMTpodcast by @christreilly (a comedian) & @PatriciaNPino (an engineer) discussing #MMT & #MonetarySovereignty. 2/n

I'm told that this sparked a very lively discussion that will continue in class next week. I've always said that this paradigm shift will not take place under the leadership of mainstream economists & their admirers. 3/n

I'd emphasize the fact that the core MMT economists are Post Keynesian Institutionalists, and as such we take legal institutions very seriously. It shouldn't be a surprise to anyone that legal scholars play an important role in the development of MMT and its policy framework. 1/n
After all, financial instruments are legal contracts, market transactions take place within a legal framework, &that legal framework is the result of multiple iterations &intersections of policy designs. So the traditional distinction between theory&policy is not very helpful 2/n
We're very grateful for the important work done by the original institutionalists (Veblen, Dewey, etc.) & their followers for cross-fertilizing with the followers of Keynes, and with the legal scholars of money and finance. 3/3

1. If you want Trump out of our White House on January 20 at noon, you need to vote for @JoeBiden. If you want to make a statement by picking a candidate whose ideology does not include private employers, you're going to help re-elect Trump. Read up on Democratic Socialism
2. before you troll me. And @MikeBloomberg if you help elect Trump you'll go down in history as a scoundrel. You may not care but you should be clear how history will view you. We need your help and having you at the table in 2020 would be fine with me. How about Treasury Sec?
3. I'd vote for Mike and @amyklobuchar @PeteButtigieg @ewarren & @TomSteyer before Trump. But Bernie having now been assisted by the Russians in two elections makes him not the candidate to wash the taste of Trump out of our mouths. A whole month he kept quiet why the Russians

Who funds the IEA, the TPA, the ASI &co?
You know, the RW 'free trade' thick tanks advocating tax havens, "freedom" (no regulations like workers' rights or environmental protection), no welfare (no tax & no free healthcare).
Basically, "Only the wealthier survive" philosophy?
1/n
*Could it be* that it has something to do with defending their funders' interests?
Today, I'm going to tell you the Thick Tanks' Hydra tale.
Featuring Atlas, huge piles of money, tradition, "free speech", useful idiots and a very clear agenda that Brexit/Trump are a part of.
2/n
Take a seat: It's a long story, with a lot of players, including politicians, pretty ladies squatting your TV, the climate change denial's network, the global fascist movement, Silicon Valley/multiname data-stealing/misusing company & private companies' involved in elections.
3/n

So #Trump is holding a news conference in about five minutes. I’ll be watching (and probably tweeting). Follow/mute at will!
Okay, #Trump has started speaking. He's already slurring. He's already made a joke about "a lot of......MEDIA.".

This does not bode well.
#Trump is now saying that China wants to "see me lose an election because they've never been challenged before."

It's not just China, pal.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
