By Eric Peters, CIO of One River Asset Management "In the early 2000s, mainland China was perhaps 5-10% of the Asian capital markets, and China appeared likely to grow in a symbiotic way with the US," said the CIO from Asia. "That path is now gone, and the possible scenarios are not nearly as hopeful as back then," continued one of the region's leading investors. "But knowing that the future is not as bright is different from knowing how it will unfold," he said. "So, for that, we break the future into a number of possibilities, then watch for signs that […]

The New York Post dropped a bomb on Hunter Biden's business deals and the alleged role of his father Joe Biden, following the GOP's September report calling out the potentially criminal financial transactions of the ex-vice president son. US journalist Max Parry has discussed the disclosure and FBI Director Christopher Wray's apparent inaction. The Post's first bombshell report – published on 14 October and almost immediately censored by Twitter – unveiled "smoking gun emails" alleging that then-Vice President Joe Biden met with an executive from the Ukrainian gas firm Burisma less than a year before Ukraine's then-General Prosecutor Viktor Shokin was […]

MIAMI—Shortly after midnight on Sunday, a line of at least 50 men and women snaked from the entrance of Tootsie's Cabaret to the sidewalk lining the perimeter of the massive strip club in Miami Gardens, a small city in South Florida that has clocked nearly 5,000 coronavirus cases since the coronavirus pandemic began. Two Miami Gardens police cars directed traffic to a satellite parking lot because Tootsie's main lot was completely full. Less than 24 hours earlier, Tootsie's owners had won a court injunction at least temporarily nullifying Miami-Dade County's 12 a.m. curfew. The party was just getting started. Johnny Fernandez, […]

This week saw more exchange drama rock the crypto markets. OKEx, one of the industry's largest crypto-fiat exchanges, suspended all cryptocurrency withdrawals, saying one of the exchange's key holders has "been out of touch" with the exchange because they are "currently cooperating with a public security bureau in investigations." Coming hard on the heels of the BitMEX indictments from a couple of weeks ago, this surely will focus the market's attention on the security of the withdrawal protocols of large exchanges. At the time, concerns surfaced that withdrawals might be halted from BitMEX, one of the largest derivatives exchanges in the […]

By Chetan Ahya, global head of economics at Morgan Stanley Mind the Gap The extraordinary policy response to the exogenous COVID-19 shock is one of the key reasons why we expect a V-shaped recovery and a return of inflation in this cycle. But that is not all. This policy response will also bring about a remarkable shift in the trend in the US saving-investment gap (or the current account deficit), widening beyond the stable range of 2-3% of GDP that it has been in over the past nine years.

The protesters gathered in front of the Cobble Hill Health Center, a nursing facility, and demanded an apology from Cuomo for his highly controversial March 25 order forcing nursing homes to accept Covid-positive cases, a decision many critics feel was a large factor in the 6500 deaths in nursing homes during the pandemic.

Huntergate was meant to be the WikiLeaks 2.0. Trumpworld hoped the story of the contents of Hunter's laptop would mimic the trajectory of the story about the contents of Anthony Weiner's laptop. It was literally a reprise of October 2020. Rudy Giuliani hoped another laptop might save the self-devouring Ouroboros snake of fuckery that is the Trump campaign. Hunter Biden, of course, had a drug problem. The bet in Trumpworld was clearly that the rest of America would think of addicts as hopelessly damaged, corruptible, and beyond hope, and that Joe Biden is somehow at fault for loving his addict son.

"The FBI has a duty to inform us. If they believe this was maybe Russian disinformation, they should give us a defensive briefing," Johnson told Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures." "If, for example, they also believe that what information this whistleblower gave us is fraudulent, that would also be a crime, and FBI should tell us that." Host Maria Bartiromo brought up […]

Is it possible that the militia story [about planning to kidnap the governor of Michigan] is another contrived, anti-Trump, smear job by elements within the FBI? Current FBI Director Christopher Wray hardly engenders confidence as a strong leader bent on cleaning house and reforming a corrupt agency that attempted a soft coup against the presidency. Wray is all about damage control and institutional preservation. When it comes to honesty, Wray does not have a tough act to follow. The FBI's reputation has been destroyed through blatant politicization. Here are the corrupt political police: Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Page, Clinesmith, Pientka, Brower, Baker, et […]

The Supreme Court retains a strong but largely undeserved reputation as a protector of the liberties guaranteed by the Constitution. In fact, there is a long history of right-wing Supreme Court majorities serving as dead hands to enforce reactionary policies favored by political minorities who have lost electoral power, or even wars. Most notoriously, a right-wing court favored the South's radical, pro-slavery positions before the Civil War and, after that war, played a critical role in nullifying Reconstruction and instituting Jim Crow; the so-called Lochner court devoted years to voiding federal and state health and safety regulations and other progressive laws, […]

Authored by Madsen Pirie via CapX.co, So, the Norwegian Nobel Committee has awarded the 2020 Nobel Peace Prize to the World Food Programme for its efforts to combat hunger and to prevent it being used as a weapon of war. They did not give it to Greta Thunberg, one of the favorites. This is quite right, too, since she did not deserve it. Far from encouraging peace, she has spread discord and division. Far from making the world a happier, safer place, she has helped make people fearful and pessimistic. Along with Extinction Rebellion, she has peddled the notion that we […]

Armenia and Azerbaijan accused each other on Sunday of violating a new humanitarian ceasefire in fighting over the mountain enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh, hours after it was agreed, Reuters reports. The truce agreed on Saturday came into force at midnight (2000 GMT) after a week-old Russian-brokered ceasefire failed to halt the worst fighting in the South Caucasus since the 1990s. At least 750 people have been killed since fighting began on Sept. 27. At 1010 GMT, the Azeri defence ministry said the Aghdam region, adjacent Nagorno-Karabakh, was under Armenian shelling. It said overnight Armenian military units opened fire from large-caliber weapons along the border, which Armenia denied. READ: Azerbaijan downs another Armenian […]

President Donald Trump told a rally crowd in Macon, Georgia, on Friday: "Lock up the Bidens." Trump was referring to reports that then-Vice President Joe Biden, his Democratic opponent, met with Chinese and Ukrainian business figures allegedly paying his son, Hunter Biden, to facilitate introductions to senior U.S. officials. Trump appeared to be joking: Trump: But they thought it was very unfair that Sleepy Joe who cannot answer a question… He really can't answer a question. Well, Chris Wallace protected him with me. I talked about the Moscow three-and-a-half million payment. I talked about the billion dollars [from China]. Chris Wallace wouldn't […]

Senator-elect Mark Kelly says bipartisanship a real mission
November 20, 2020 The North State Journal news, North State Journal Comments Off on Senator-elect Mark Kelly says bipartisanship a real mission

PHOENIX — Democrat Mark Kelly pledged Friday to stick with the campaign theme of bipartisanship that won him a U.S. Senate seat in Arizona's election, saying it was more than a rallying point to get voters in the traditionally Republican state to back him.
Instead, the newly elected retired astronaut said it's what he and his wife, former Rep. Gabby Giffords, have always believed, and he wants Arizonans to know he plans to turn the campaign theme into action.
"The polarization and the politization that we've seen on issues, it just makes it where our country has a hard time, our government doesn't even function well anymore," Kelly said in an interview with The Associated Press. "And I think the only way to fix that is for individuals, both Democrats and Republicans, to be committed to working together with the other side."
Kelly will get an early look at how that might work in a little over two weeks. He will be sworn in as soon as the election results are certified because current Sen. Martha McSally was appointed to the seat once held by the late John McCain until last week's special election could be held.
Kelly has already put together a bipartisan transition team to advise him. McSally called him Friday to concede and offer her help in the transition.
"I spoke to her today and had a great conversation with her," Kelly said. "And she recognized that I have an accelerated timeline here to put an office together before I get sworn in in December. She pointed that out and wants to be helpful."
Kelly positioned himself as a pragmatic centrist with no patience for Washington partisanship during the campaign. When the coronavirus pandemic struck, he retreated to mostly online outreach, minimizing face-to-face campaigning while blasting McSally and President Donald Trump for allowing the pandemic to get out of control.
McSally, a retired Air Force pilot and former congresswoman who took office in January 2019 after Gov. Doug Ducey appointed her, conceded in a statement and said it was an honor to serve and thanked Ducey.
"I will always be inspired by the strength, resilience, innovation, and compassion that I witnessed from Arizonans as I traveled throughout our great state," she said. "I will never forget what I learned from all of you. "
Kelly said his wife, who was left with disabilities after being shot in the head in a 2011 assassination attempt in Tucson, may travel with him to Washington.
"Gabby's pretty tough – she's one of the toughest people I know and she is motivated and a hard-working individual," he said. 'When she served in Congress she went back and forth a lot, and I suspect she's going to want to spend a lot of time with me in D.C. now."
That shooting led Kelly to push for tighter firearms laws, although he's a gun owner and strong backer of the 2nd Amendment. He said he will seek laws that protect communities from gun violence.
"And there's a lot that can be done that most Arizonans support," he said. "It's a political issue, but it's something that's very personal to me."
Kelly said the tight party split where Republicans have a slim Senate majority provides an opportunity for the bipartisanship he ran on.
"It's going to be important to reach across the aisle to those Republicans who want to get things done," Kelly said. "I think it's going to be up to both parties to address some of these major issues that we're facing."
Arizona will send two Democrats to the Senate for the first time in nearly 70 years when Kelly joins Kyrsten Sinema in Washington. Kelly will finish the last two years of McCain's term and then face reelection in 2022.

This Missile Could Reach California. But Can North Korea Use It With a Nuclear Weapon?
By WILLIAM J. BROAD, MIKA GRÖNDAHL, JOSH KELLER, ALICIA PARLAPIANO, ANJALI SINGHVI and KAREN YOURISH
https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/08/22/world/asia/north-korea-nuclear-weapons.html
North Korea is speeding toward a goal it has sought for decades: the ability to hit a major American city with a nuclear weapon.
Actually striking the United States would be suicide. But the capability could help the North deter an invasion and wield increased global influence. American intelligence agencies estimate that the North could reach the milestone by next year, and some experts think it already has.
But reliably sending a nuclear warhead halfway around the globe is extremely difficult, and challenges may remain. Here are some of the systems the North needs to advance or master.
Reach the U.S. mainland
It's probably already possible.
Here's what the North's intercontinental ballistic missile looks like, at least as experts can best determine.
It's the first ICBM to have flown successfully after many years of empty claims and abandoned models. North Korea tested it twice in July. The second test appeared capable of reaching the West Coast, with Chicago and Denver also potentially in range.
The North's ICBM program was long known for modest strides and spectacular failures until it made a rush of advances this year. Analysts say a powerful new main engine lies behind the feats, calling it stronger and more reliable than past models.
Source: Center for Strategic and International Studies
A vehicle that can survive re-entry
A crude version by next year, if not already.
It's relatively easy to get a vehicle into space but very difficult to bring it down.
The main problem for North Korea is developing a missile warhead that can withstand the fiery heat and great violence of atmospheric reentry.
The forces at work are enormous. A warhead fired into the void of outer space by an intercontinental ballistic missile falls back to Earth at speeds of roughly four miles a second. Intense friction with the planet's thick blanket of air produces waves of blistering heat. A badly engineered warhead will burn up long before hitting its target.
One trick of designers is to coat the reentry vehicle with thick materials that burn off evenly, making an ablative shield that sends dangerous heat into the wake. But manufacturing errors can produce uneven burns that throw a warhead off course.
Last month, a camera in Japan caught a glimpse of a North Korean mock warhead as it reentered the atmosphere at night. At first it looked like a shooting star, but then it seemed to shed a trail of bright sparks and shimmers before dimming and disappearing. Some experts see this video as evidence that the reentry vehicle broke into pieces.
Others are not so sure. Joshua H. Pollack, the editor of The Nonproliferation Review, says that the quality of the video is too poor to determine what happened. "Even if it did break up, it may not mean anything," he said. "It's a solvable problem."
What's clear is that the North is trying hard and making progress. Military and intelligence experts tend to assume the worst – arguably a prudent approach with weapons of mass destruction. If the North keeps up its rate of missile tests, it will likely have perfected a crude re-entry vehicle by next year, if it doesn't possess one already, private analysts say.
Make a bomb that can fit in a missile
Probably already completed.
Much of the technical debate over the North Korean threat has turned on whether it has miniaturized its nuclear arms so they can fit inside the cramped space of the missile nose cone.
The first atom bomb – dubbed the Gadget – was five feet wide. Last year, the North released a photo of its leader, Kim Jong-un, inspecting a shiny ball described as a miniaturized bomb meant to fit into a missile warhead. It was about two feet wide, small enough to do the trick.

North Korea, 2016 | Photo by the Korean Central News Agency, via European Pressphoto Agency
It's impossible to know whether the photo shows a working weapon or a mock-up. But nuclear experts, including American intelligence agencies, judge that the North has indeed succeeded in making its nuclear arms small enough to fit atop an ICBM.
"Any country that has conducted five nuclear tests can probably do it," Mr. Pollack said. "I give them the benefit of the doubt."
The smaller and lighter the bomb, the farther it can go. The chart below estimates how the range of North Korea's Hwasong-14 missile increases dramatically as the weight of the warhead decreases.
Hit the right place
Not perfect, but close enough.
North Korea's aim is famously poor, and accurately directing a long-range missile that throws warheads halfway around the world is extraordinarily challenging.
Highly advanced states that have worked on the problem for decades can launch ICBMs whose warheads will hit target areas roughly 200 meters wide – "an astonishing technical achievement," says Donald MacKenzie, author of "Inventing Accuracy."
One estimate for North Korea, based on the accuracy of other first-generation ICBMs, ranges between three and five kilometers, or about two to three miles. The true accuracy is impossible to determine because the North's warheads usually fall into the sea, and outside experts know little about its intended targets.
Even so, "that's good enough if you're aiming at a city," said Ian Williams, a missile defense expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. But it would probably be insufficient to reliably take out a hardened target like a military installation, he said.
Analysts say North Korea appears to be working toward leaner, more accurate designs for its missile warheads. It currently appears to use a blunt re-entry vehicle that is relatively easy to make but slower and less accurate than the pointy models of advanced states.
Make a more powerful bomb
Still a way off.
North Korea can sidestep the accuracy question and do more damage with a more powerful bomb. But that's difficult given the cramped spaces in a nose cone and the need to keep the weapon as light as possible.
Based on nuclear detonations at the North's underground test site, analysts say the nation currently has weapons with about the same or slightly more destructive power as the Hiroshima bomb, which destroyed the city and killed an estimated 70,000 people with its initial blast.
The standard way of raising the destructive power of a bomb, while keeping it relatively small and lightweight, is to add thermonuclear fuel. The steps are technically daunting but can produce weapons with up to 1,000 times the destructive power of the Hiroshima bomb. Generically, they are known as hydrogen bombs.
Here's a rough map of the difference in destruction if a Hiroshima-sized bomb and one 600 times stronger, the size of one of the largest ICBM warheads ever deployed, hit the center of Los Angeles.
Source: Alex Wellerstein, NUKEMAP | Estimates are for surface explosions.
The North Koreans have shown great interest in making hydrogen bombs, but experts have no clear sense of how far they have traveled down the thermonuclear road. The clearest indication would be a very large underground nuclear blast. So far, the North has detonated nothing that comes even close.
Get past United States defenses
Nobody knows for sure.
Can't the Americans just shoot down an incoming nuclear warhead with an antiballistic missile? Maybe. But that kind of protection has never been used against an ICBM in war, only in highly choreographed tests. Even then, the costly antimissile systems have often failed to hit the speeding mock targets.
U.S. Department of Defense, Missile Defense Agency
It's a numbers game that can play to the offense. If the North fires three nuclear warheads and the United States manages to shoot down two, the North would still accomplish much of its objective with just one city's destruction.
The North is clearly exploring ways to improve its penetration of antimissile defenses, and is likely to investigate others. In March, it simultaneously fired four missiles in a salvo that would make it harder for American defenses to shoot down all the incoming warheads
Warheads that zig and zag could foil antimissile systems. North Korea recently displayed a missile warhead that boasted fins, implying an interest in such evasions.
A final step would be clouds of inexpensive decoys. Advanced ICBMs carry large sets of such fakes alongside real warheads. The false targets provide protective cover and vastly increase the complexity of the antimissile effort.
How will we know when the North Koreans have truly attained the ability to threaten the United States? A friend recently asked Mr. Williams. "I kind of just shrugged my shoulders and said, well, you're going to see a bright light," he said.
Many experts say the North Koreans are well on their way, and they expect the first serious deployments next year. Whether the rogue state's possession of the ultimate weapon will change the world remains to be seen. In the best case, it could be just another in a long series of unthinkable standoffs the world has learned to live with over the course of two atomic centuries.
