Firing Line with Margaret Hoover
@firinglineshow
Anthony Kennedy says requiring Supreme Court justices to enforce an ethics code for each other would pose "a threat to our collegiality." "An intelligent, interested, well-informed press, an intelligent, interested, well-informed public can insist that violations of ethics be cured."

"He's the most corrupt president in U.S. history...and it's not even close." "Everyone Is Lying to You for Money" director @benmckenzie.bsky.social assesses #PresidentTrump's crypto ventures--and the profits he has reportedly made off them since returning to office.
Retired Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy: “If we don't think about what the rest of the world thinks about what we're doing, about what our future thinks about what we're doing, about what our history will teach us about what we're doing, we put democracy in danger.”
Former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis reflects on how George Washington embodied Stoicism. “He listens with the willingness to be persuaded. He quiets himself down, tones down his temper, and he learns,” says Mattis. “That is a man in control of himself.”
In “Everyone Is Lying to You for Money,” Ben McKenzie interviewed people who had been scammed by crypto—and yet they still believe in cryptocurrency. “For some of these guys, this was a major investment for them, not just financially, but mentally, psychologically. This was their ticket out."

"Could you use crypto for a good purpose? Sure, it's a tool," says "Everyone Is Lying to You for Money" director @benmckenzie.bsky.social. "But... the amount of crime that's facilitated via cryptocurrency is staggering." TONIGHT 8:30 pm ET @PBS.org listings: to.pbs.org/39hI6Tf
Government price controls might cap health care costs in the short term, says Lanhee Chen, but they won't solve the problem. "In the long run, it's not going to cost less. What it will do is create a precedent for the government aggressively rationing access to health care."
Health care policy expert Lanhee Chen proposes Individual Health Accounts, but he recognizes “it's not for everybody at this point.” “Health savings accounts as they exist now are predominantly a vehicle for middle, upper-middle income, higher income folks to save for their health care expenses.”
"If you are looking to have a significant surgical procedure, you're probably going to do it in America," says Lanhee Chen. "Yet we have a health care system that produces unreasonably high rates of infant mortality." TONIGHT 8:30 pm ET @PBS.org listings: to.pbs.org/39hI6Tf
While he advocates for more price transparency in health care, Lanhee Chen says it is only “part of the puzzle” of fixing the system. "There is a tendency amongst some to argue that price transparency is like the holy grail. I don't feel that way… There's no silver bullet." Apple: bit.ly/4chWzAa

Anthony Scaramucci: “If Obama acted the way Trump is acting, Fox News hosts would be calling for his impeachment. This guy is falling asleep in the Oval Office. He spent $8.2T in his first term, and he’s going to rack up $9-10T at the pace he’s on now.”

"I was on the ground in southern Iraq on the day that Saddam's forces left the southern city of Basra," said @sbg1.bsky.social. "The American and British officers we spoke with had no idea what they were doing there. They didn't know what the goal was."
Trump to NYT's David Sanger: "I had a total military victory. But the fake news, guys like you, write incorrectly. You're a fake guy. A total military victory. I actually think it's sort of treasonous what you write. You should be ashamed of yourself. I actually think it's treason."

Canada’s wealth gap is the widest it’s been in StatCan’s recorded history. You’d think Carney would focus on that -- not privatization. In fact, “Carney’s policies will only make inequality even worse," @dtcochrane.bsky.social, a senior economist with the Canadian Labour Congress, told me. Uh oh:
