New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment.

Documents released by a watchdog group suggest that despite Trump's promise to fund Freedom 250 events through private donations, taxpayers largely footed the bill. The budget estimates leave open questions about where tens of millions in private donations ended up.

Totally agree about abusing dogs.
Serious question: why does that mean a candidate for Senate should "answer" for him? Senators vote on bills a President can sign or veto. No comparison?
Forgetting can be a survival skill.
He seems to want the top spot for hateful world leaders of all time.
The daughter of Trumpโs chief of staff, Susie Wiles, works for a US lobbying firm with a $35K-a-month contract to represent Republika Srpska. Here she is with its interior minister, a figure aligned with the pro-Russian government.
