Gradually, Then Suddenly
The Canadian dollar is at risk of falling to lows only seen during big economic shocks as forces once again line up against the currency, economists warn.
The Bank of Canada cut its interest rate by half a percentage point this month, widening the gap between it and the United States Federal Reserve, which puts pressure on the loonie.
The Fed made its own large cut in September, but the resilience of America’s economy since then has led to speculation that it won’t ease as much as expected, said Benjamin Reitzes, Canadian rates and macro strategist with BMO Capital Markets.
The Canadian economy, on the other hand, is showing no signs of momentum, suggesting that more rate cuts are to come.[…]
The current 125-basis-point spread between the two policy rates is the widest it’s been in at least two decades, and it could widen in months to come, putting more pressure on the Canadian dollar, said Ste-Marie.

The Harris-Walz volunteer discord server just banned my account.
We expected this. That's why we quietly archived the server over the past week and are now releasing the files to the broader public.

More at The Federalist;
Yesterday’s report documented how the Harris-Walz campaign has seen great success in manipulating Reddit’s algorithm, but that isn’t the only social media site they’re manipulating. The campaign has also been targeting Elon Musk’s X, perhaps the most influential site for political news. One particular goal, according to a user of the Harris-Walz campaign Discord server, is to get campaign volunteers to swarm the site and “block [community notes] we don’t like.”

When The FBI Does It, That Means That It’s Not Illegal
The House Judiciary Committee is examining a whistleblower report that the FBI targeted Donald Trump soon after he announced his presidential campaign in June 2015, an off-the-books operation ordered by FBI Director James B. Comey that predated the Crossfire Hurricane operation.
An FBI agent involved in the probe revealed the off-the-books criminal investigation on Tuesday in a protected disclosure sent to the committee.
The whistleblower disclosure said two female FBI undercover agents infiltrated Mr. Trump’s 2016 campaign at high levels and were directed to act as “honeypots” while traveling with Mr. Trump and his campaign staff on the trail.[…]
The agent “personally knew” that Mr. Comey ordered an FBI investigation against Mr. Trump and that Mr. Comey “personally directed it,” according to the disclosure.
The off-the-books investigation did not appear to target a specific crime but was more of what agents would describe as a fishing expedition to find something incriminating about Mr. Trump.
