Ganz praktisch eigentlich, dass die private Wahlkampffinanzierung in den USA so offen vollzogen wird. Da kann man den Protest tatsächlich mal ganz hautnah bei den Richtigen ablassen.

ZitatMichigan lawmaker says Gaza should be approached ‘like Nagasaki and Hiroshima’
The office of Rep. Tim Walberg (R-Mich.) says the congressman was speaking metaphorically
A Republican member of Congress appeared to suggest that nuclear weapons should be dropped on Gaza, according to a video from a town hall circulating on social media, but his office maintains that he was speaking metaphorically “to show urgency to defeat these enemies swiftly.”
Rep. Tim Walberg (R-Mich.) was answering a question from a constituent during a town hall in Dundee, Mich., on Monday, about the United States’ plan to build a floating pier off the coast of Gaza to deliver humanitarian aid.
“Why are we spending our money to build a port for them?” someone asks in the video.
Walberg, who is not seen in the video, responds by saying that the United States “shouldn’t be spending a dime on humanitarian aid” and then references the two Japanese cities where the United States dropped atomic bombs during World War II.
“It should be like Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Get it over quick,” Walberg said.
Die versuchte Schadensbegrenzung ist auch nur glaubwürdig, wenn man hier Kenntnislücken unterstellt:
ZitatIn a statement, the congressman’s office contended that Walberg “clearly uses a metaphor to support Israel’s swift elimination of Hamas, which is the best chance to save lives long-term and the only hope at achieving a permanent peace in the region.”
Aber vielleicht glauben sie wirklich, dass die japanischen Streitkräfte mit zwei Kernwaffen ausgelöscht wurden.

ZitatDemocrats throw Johnson a lifeline on motion to vacate
Several House Democrats reiterated their opposition to ousting House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) after a second Republican signed onto a motion to remove him on Tuesday.
ZitatDriving the news: Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) told Axios his opposition to ousting Johnson "has not changed."

Record issuance raises worries that debt sales will exacerbate volatility
A series of weak auctions for U.S. Treasurys are stoking investors’ concerns that markets will struggle to absorb an incoming rush of government debt.
A selloff sparked by a hotter-than-expected inflation report intensified this past week after lackluster demand for a $39 billion sale of 10-year Treasurys. Investors also showed tepid interest in auctions for three-year and 30-year Treasurys.
