With Europe moving toward conflict in 1938, a number of economists and other intellectuals met in Paris to try to revitalize liberalism. Ludwig von Mises also was there as a lonely voice defending laissez-faire and the free market economy.

Walmart Canada Axing Some Property Controls Amid Grocery Competition Scrutiny
November 23, 2024
Walmart Canada says it’s getting rid of property controls relating to retail competition across the country. The grocery industry’s use of property controls, which are terms baked into commercial leases that put restrictions on other tenants and their activities, has recently come under scrutiny. Walmart said Friday it decided to “unilaterally waive any competitive retail restrictions” and is in the process of notifying its landlords and other landowners of the change. The Competition Bureau is investigating the use of these restrictive clauses by Loblaw and Sobeys, and has said they are hampering competition in the grocery sector. In October, Loblaw said it would eliminate its use of commercial property controls if other grocers did the same. At the time, Sobeys owner Empire said it would like to see the government eliminate the use of the clauses across retail. […]
ABSOLUTELY NOT! Democratic Senator Peter Welch Wants to Restore Funding for Terror-Loving UNRWA – Twitchy
November 23, 2024
A few months ago, this writer told you how the UNRWA — a corrupt, feckless arm of the even more corrupt and feckless United Nations — was caught stealing and selling humanitarian aid meant for Gaza. They called Hamas a ‘political movement’ (it’s designated a terror group by several nations) and somehow got nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize (as if that award could get any less meaningless). The UNRWA was up to its elbows in the October 7, 2023 terror attack. So much so even the Biden administration couldn’t ignore its involvement and cut off funding. Now Senator Peter Welch, Democrat from Vermont, wants to give the UNRWA funding again: Today, I’m introduced legislation today with my colleagues to restore funding to UNRWA. Given the intensifying humanitarian crisis in Gaza, we must give the most effective aid organization in the region the resources they need to save civilian lives. pic.twitter.com/Zx0GQ13Bs7 — Senator Peter Welch (@SenPeterWelch) November 21, 2024 Absolutely not. You are literally f**king defending and funding terrorists — marilyn maupin (@marilynmaupin) November 22, 2024 Yes they are. Nope. You’re supporting terrorists,… Read the full article here […]

PRECIOUS METALS REPORT: November 22, 2024 (“Feels like 2000”)
November 23, 2024
Happy Friday everyone! It’s time again for our weekly PRECIOUS METALS REPORT courtesy of my friend Ira Bershatsky. As always, my standard disclaimer: Not personalized financial advice, but this is the quality of insight and macro analysis that people pay big money for…and thanks to Ira, I’m pleased to be able to share it was all of you. Is history repeating itself? Does it feel like 2000 or 2007 all over again? Or perhaps…the Roaring 20s all over again? We all know what happened after each of those three events right? Recession. Great Recession. Great Depression. Yikes. Here now is Ira Bershatsky with more in this week’s Precious Metals Update: Gold and silver both rallied this week after the first two weeks of November drop and gold has recouped 67% of the drop and silver has recouped 30% of the drop. Combined with the gold/silver ratio that has been moving higher this week and is now above 86, silver may have more room to the upside. Gold has great upside momentum. Economic reports this week included housing starts and building permits for October which both were below estimates buoying the metals. On Thursday, the Philadelphia FED manufacturing survey came in… […]

Happy Friday, Gentle Readers, I pray this missive finds you well. Since this will be the last WPS before Thanksgiving, I want to take a moment to thank everyone who reads this little feature, which will enter its third year on 12/31. For those who have been with me since the start, thank you. For those who may be new to this column, welcome. Writing the WPS is one of the highlights of my week. I vow to continue to drink wine in defense of free speech as long as my liver permits. I know I have been a little remiss in the column department lately, but since the morning after the election, our business has been steadily picking up steam — as in that very morning. It’s almost as if people have more confidence in the economy now. Go figure. Quit yer bitchin’ and eat the chicken. Back when I worked in a cubicle farm, every so often, the boss would spring for lunch for the company. It was a nice gesture, and I never complained. Free food is free food. I was always the guy who would go up and get a plate or sandwich, and then after everyone else had a chance, would scoop up the leftovers. Alas, in the era of #MeFirst, Last, and Only, a free lunch doesn’t cut… Read the full article here […]
Neil deGrasse Tyson While Refusing to Say Inherent Gender Differences Exist in Sports: ‘Let’s Talk About Science’
November 23, 2024
On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson refused to say if Scientific American was wrong to claim that the differences between male and female athletes are due to biases and proclaimed “Let’s talk about science” while being questioned on the matter. Host Bill Maher said that while he disagrees with the recent posts by now former Editor-in-Chief Laura Helmuth about the 2024 election, they weren’t really the scandal, “what I think is the scandal, this is in Scientific American, less than a year ago, ‘Inequity between male and female athletes is a result not of inherent biological differences between the sexes but of biases in how they are treated in sports.’ That’s nuts. And it sure ain’t scientific, and it’s in Scientific American. And that’s why the Democrats lost the election. It’s true.” Tyson remarked that Maher constantly comes up with different reasons for why Democrats lost. Maher then asked Tyson to “engage with the idea here. What I’m asking is, Scientific American is saying, basically, that the reason why an NBA — WNBA team can’t beat the Lakers is because of societal bias.” Tyson… Read the full article here […]
Sarah Palin Hints At Return To Washington With Cryptic Post
November 23, 2024
Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor and 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate, hinted in a cryptic social media post that she may be eyeing a return to Washington, D.C. The conservative firebrand, referring to herself as the “mother of MAGA” on Thursday, posted a photo of herself outside the Capitol building with the mysterious caption “11/24” and limiting replies without further explanation. Her post came several days after she first noticed words of encouragement from followers urging her to seek a post in a second Trump administration, the New York Post reported. (POLL: Should Pelosi Be Banned From Trading Stocks?) “Palin was Trump before Trump. I have been saying this for years. Sarah Palin is the Mother of MAGA,” the supporter wrote. “Back then [16 years ago], she was the face of the [Tea Party], what would then become the MAGA movement,” continued the follower, expressing outrage that others had been named for “positions I hoped Sarah Palin would get. It is so shocking to me how in 2017, and now it looks like in 2025, she will not get a seat at the table that she helped set.” Palin quoted the X post and added her own… […]
Trump nominates hedge fund manager Scott Bessent to head of Treasury Department
November 23, 2024
President-elect Donald Trump announced the nomination of Scott Bessent, a hedge fund manager, to head the Treasury Department, on Friday evening. Bessent, who is 62 years old, founded the macro fund Key Square Group in 2015 and is openly gay. ‘I was all in for President Trump. I was one of the few Wall Street people backing him.’ Trump previously referred to Bessent as “one of the most brilliant men on Wall Street.” Bessent is from a small town in South Carolina and studied at Yale before ending up on Wall Street working at Soros Fund Management. When he started Key Square Group, left-wing billionaire George Soros invested $2 billion in the fund. Bessent has been a donor and supporter of Trump as well as an economic advisor in the 2024 presidential campaign. He also worked as a top fundraiser. In January, he predicted that there would be a rally in the stock market once Trump won the election, and he was correct. “I was all in for President Trump. I was one of the few Wall Street people backing him,” he said in one interview. He has called on Trump to implement deregulation and tax cuts. He’s also warned about the worsening debt burden and attributed it to… Read the full article here […]
Forgive Us If We Don’t Shed a Tear Over Rachel Maddow Getting a MASSIVE Salary Cut – Twitchy
November 23, 2024
We here at Twitchy have covered a lot — A LOT — of the biased, woke, Left-wing insanity of the media. It’s kinda our bread and butter, and it’s fascinating to watch how the media have so willingly self-immolated in service of the Democratic Party. It’s done nothing to help them. In fact, they’re tanking in ratings and revenue. Layoffs across print and broadcast media are commonplace, and yet they don’t learn. They continue to be the propaganda arm of the DNC. One of the worst offenders is MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow. She absolutely melted down after Donald Trump won reelection on November 5, and her tears sustain us. But she’s awful — she was sued for defamation by a Georgia doctor, and argued that ‘Lord of the Rings’ is ‘far-Right’ (and therefore bad). So now that news is circulating that she’s taking a big pay cut, forgive us if we’re not upset: MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow’s salary reportedly cut by $5M despite being ‘ratings Viagra’ – as parent company Comcast deals with ‘difficult time’ https://t.co/obA4hhLFPM pic.twitter.com/akXpAEbKQY — New York Post (@nypost) November 21, 2024 First, please don’t ever use the word ‘Viagra’ in the… Read the full article here […]
