The 2024 U.S. Presidential Election: A Choice Between Two Uninspiring Visions
The 2024 U.S. presidential election is less a celebration of democracy than a study in disenchantment. Both candidates—Kamala Harris and Donald Trump—have come to represent not so much the best and brightest of American leadership, but rather the last resorts of their respective parties. With Biden’s unexpected withdrawal from the race and Harris stepping up in his place, voters are left with a stark choice that feels less about inspiration and more about resignation.

"End of the World"
Every time we are about to vote in the presidential election where Trump is a candidate (third time now, hopefully a charm to get him out of politics), I remember the "End of the World" episode of Trackdown that is eerily similar to our today's reality.

I don't want to live through another Trump presidency.
When I shared McSweeney's list of the damage that Trump has done, my uncle laughed at me. I thought that the people who raised me taught me about integrity. I thought they believed that lying is wrong. My dad warned me about the sex offender's in my grandma's neighborhood, and warned me that it wasn't safe to walk alone.

Strap in, because the world’s richest man isn’t just tweeting his support for Trump he’s going full "dark MAGA" with it. Yes, you read that right.

The Impact of Interest Rate Cuts on the United States Dollar, Global Markets, and Bitcoin
The Federal Reserve has a number of powerful instruments at its disposal, one of the most important of which is the choice to reduce interest rates. During periods of economic unpredictability, cutting interest rates can be an effective way to boost growth by lowering the costs of borrowing money for both consumers and businesses. There are, however, benefits and drawbacks associated with interest rate reductions, and the ramifications extend beyond the borders of the United States, having an effect on markets throughout the world as well as alternative assets such as Bitcoin. In this essay, we will discuss the benefits and drawbacks of lowering interest rates, with a particular emphasis on the ways in which this affects the economy of the United States, stock markets throughout the world, the United States dollar, and Bitcoin.

The Truth About Kamala Harris and Joe Biden’s Economy: What Trump and Vance Don’t Want You to Know
I have taken the time to research and write this essay because I feel it is important that people vote on the facts instead of lies. I find it reprehensible that Donald Trump and J.D. Vance are basing a major part of their presidential campaign on an outright lie.
