In a letter to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Attorney General Pam Bondi dated Tuesday, Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Jack Reed requested an investigation by December 1 into World Liberty Financial's compliance with anti-money laundering rules, sanctions, and governance.

On the New Statesman podcast, Dominic Sandbrook argued that 1950s and 1960s politicians like Harold Macmillan gained empathy from evening reads of 19th-century fiction, such as Trollope, unlike today's screen-filled nights. He suggested this 'hinterland' produced better leaders amid a shrill political landscape, a view echoed by Aaron Bastani and Michael Gove. Critics pointed to era flaws like the Suez Crisis and Soviet spies, questioning if reading alone ensured strong governance. The clip revives calls for leaders with depth beyond briefs.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Imagine prime ministers unwinding with Anthony Trollope novels instead of policy briefs or social media. Historian Dominic Sandbrook misses that era's reflective leaders.

Over 50 Jewish respondents largely expressed delight in the holiday's vibe and mood-boosting elements amid winter, noting cultural participation such as eating Chinese food on Christmas or decorating neighbors' trees. Many highlighted the irony that iconic songs like 'White Christmas' and 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer' were written by Jewish composers including Irving Berlin and Johnny Marks. While a minority opts out, the thread with over 4,000 views reflects American pluralism and shared seasonal goodwill transcending faith.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Alex, a Haitian-New Yorker, shared the encounter on February 22, questioning if the man's grandparents owned plantations and slaves—prompting quick corrections that slavery ended in Cuba in 1886. Replies poured in defending exiles as fleeing communist takeovers, not slave-owning, while others praised the revolution for land reforms, literacy jumps from 76% to near 100%, and health improvements like infant mortality dropping from 37 to 4 per 1,000 births. Skeptics highlighted Cuba's pre-1959 strengths in literacy and GDP, later stagnation, and divides in Miami's Cuban community, from the mostly white 'Golden Exile' of 1959-1962 to diverse later waves fueling ongoing political tensions.
