Trump ger Musk nytt toppjobb – att effektivisera statsapparaten

Trump ger Musk nytt toppjobb – att effektivisera statsapparaten

Trumps nya departement för myndighetseffektivisering förkortas Doge, likt memet föreställande en hund som också Musks favoritkryptovaluta dogecoin har som logotyp. Musk ska leda arbetet tillsammans med den tidigare presidentaspiranten Vivek Ramaswamy. ”Jag är glad att meddela att den store Elon Musk, i samarbete med den amerikanske patrioten Vivek Ramaswamy, kommer att leda Department of Government Efficiency”, skriver Trump i ett uttalande. "Tillsammans ska dessa två underbara amerikaner bana väg för min administration att avveckla den statliga byråkratin, skära ned överflödiga regler, minska slösaktiga utgifter och omstrukturera federala myndigheter", skriver han vidare i uttalandet. ”Chockvågor” Musk säger att det ska "skicka chockvågor genom systemet, och hos alla som är involverade i statligt slöseri". Doge ska enligt Trump bistå regeringen med råd och vägledning samt tillsammans med Vita huset driva på för omfattande strukturella förändringar. Trump benämner det hela som ett departement, men det är oklart om det ska lyda under regeringen. – Det kommer bli drastiska nedskärningar, säger TV4 Nyheternas USA-korrespondent Tomas Kvarnkullen. – Vi vet inte exakt vad det är man kommer rikta in sig på, men Donald Trump har under sin valkampanj talat om att uppemot 100 000 statliga jobb kan komma att påverkas, fortsätter han. Arbetet ska vara färdigt senast 4 juli 2026, enligt uttalandet. Fox-profil blir försvarsminister Trump utsåg under tisdagskvällen en rad nyckelspelare i sin nya regering. Fox News-profilen Pete Hegseth blir försvarsminister. Han är en av programledarna för "Fox & friends weekend", där Trump deltagit flera gånger. Hegseth har militär erfarenhet och har tjänstgjort bland annat i Afghanistan och Irak. Samtidigt står det klart att Kirsti Noem utses till minister för inrikes säkerhet. Trump nominerar också John Ratcliffe till chef för underrättelsetjänsten CIA. Han tjänstgjorde som USA:s nationella underrättelsechef de sista månaderna av Trumps förra mandatperiod och var innan dess ledamot i representanthuset för Texas. Golfpartner till Mellanöstern Tidigare på tisdagskvällen utsåg Trump även den tidigare Arkansasguvernören Mike Huckabee till att bli USA:s nästa ambassadör i Israel. Det står också klart att fastighetsinvesteraren Steven Witkoff, Trumps mångåriga vän och golfpartner, blir särskilt sändebud för Mellanöstern. Trump bekräftade också den förhandstippade utnämningen av Mike Waltz som nationell säkerhetsrådgivare. Waltz, som i förra veckan blev omvald till representanthuset, är en ivrig Trumpanhängare och beskrivs ha en hökaktig inställning till Kina.

Jordskredsseger för Donald Trump – får över hälften av rösterna

Jordskredsseger för Donald Trump – får över hälften av rösterna

Nyhetskanalerna CNN och CBS var snabba med att prognostisera Trumps seger, även om hans segermarginal inte är klar. Och bara en halvtimme efter att vallokalerna öppnade förklarade nyhetsbyrån AP honom som segrare utan reservationer, baserat på tidiga resultat samt en enkät bland republikaner som sagt att de skulle delta i nomineringsmötena. Båda visade, enligt AP, att Trump har en ointaglig ledning. Den före detta presidenten hade redan före nomineringsmötet en massiv ledning i opinionsmätningarna och den som spås få utmana Demokraternas Joe Biden om presidentposten i november. "Det verkar som om Donald Trump just tog hem Iowa. Det gör honom till den som nu leder loppet på den andra sidan" kommenterar Biden på X, tidigare Twitter. DeSantis före Haley När 90 procent av rösterna var räknade hade Trump fått 50,9 procent av rösterna, enligt CNN. På andra plats kom Floridaguvernören Ron DeSantis med 21,3 procent, strax före den tidigare FN-ambassadören Nikki Haley som fick 19,1 procent. Det har spekulerats i att en tredjeplats för DeSantis skulle ha inneburit dödsstöten för hans kampanj för att bli nominerad. DeSantis kampanj rasade mot att amerikanska medier så snabbt gick ut och förklarade Trump som vinnare av nomineringen i Iowa och anklagade dem för att lägga sig i processen. Deltagarna i nomineringsmötena i Iowa samlades i de mer än 1 600 vallokalerna när de öppnade vid sjutiden på kvällen lokal tid. Samtidigt har en vinterstorm med extrem kyla dragit in över delstaten med temperaturer ner till minus 40 grader, vilket verkar ha påverkat valdeltagandet som uppskattas vara betydligt lägre än 2016. Viktigaste valet Trumps seger i Iowa tyder på att 77-åringen har lyckats samla sina anhängare trots att han har en rad åtal hängande över sig. – Jag tror att det här är det viktigaste valet i vårt lands historia, sade Trump till en folksamling inför ett nomineringsmöte i staden Clive rapporterar CNN. Att vara först ut i primärvalsprocessen betyder enorm uppmärksamhet från politiker och medier. Segraren i Iowa får stora rubriker, politisk medvind och uppsving i donationer – något som kan säkra en valkampanjs fortlevnad. Efter nomineringsmötet i Iowa har entreprenören Vivek Ramaswamy meddelat att han drar sig ur den republikanska nomineringskampanjen.

Trump i Iowa – första utgallring väntar: "Kommer skriva historia"

Trump i Iowa – första utgallring väntar: "Kommer skriva historia"

– Vi kommer att skriva historia och vinna stort i Iowa, slog en kavat expresident Trump fast i dagarna. Dennis Goldford, professor i statsvetenskap vid Drake Universty i Des Moines i Iowa, är beredd att ge honom rätt – men med viss reservation. – Det vore ett enormt bombnedslag om det inte går jättebra för Trump. Men Iowavalet handlar om förväntningar. Om Trump "bara" får 40 procent eller mindre kommer det väcka frågor om svaghet, säger han till TT. Stora rubriker Det brukar heta att många vägar går till Iowa men att det bara finns tre biljetter därifrån. Talesättet beskriver hur viktig det är att lyckas i landets första primärvalsstat. Det är inte ovanligt att presidentaspiranter kastar in handduken när rösterna räknats där. Att vara först ut i primärvalsprocessen betyder enorm uppmärksamhet från politiker och medier. Segraren i Iowa får stora rubriker, politisk medvind och uppsving i donationer – något som kan säkra en valkampanjs fortlevnad. I år är dock mycket annorlunda. På den demokratiska sidan ställer president Joe Biden upp för omval och hans kandidatur är inte på allvar hotad. På den republikanska sidan har Trump en hisnande ledning på mer än 50 procentenheter över sina närmaste medtävlare. ”Gått utanför” I Iowa är avståndet något mindre, men Trumps stöd är hela 35 procentenheter högre än förra FN-ambassadören Nikki Haley och Floridaguvernören Ron DeSantis. De ligger båda på drygt 16 procent, enligt Real Clear Politics sammanställning av mätningar. Eftersläntrarna jobbar dock på inför de nomineringsmöten som hålls i vintervädret i kväll lokal tid. Under de fyra första dagarna i januari gjorde Ron DeSantis hela 99 framträdanden i 57 counties (ungefär län), enligt nyhetssajten Axios. – DeSantis har satsat allt på Iowa. Men hans kampanj har gått utför sedan han lanserade den. Om han inte säkrar en stark andraplats här är det svårt att se en fortsättning, säger Goldford. Kamp om VP-post? Det i höstas så breda republikanska startfältet har redan tunnats ut. Efter exguvernören och Trumpkritikern Chris Christies avhopp nyligen består det i princip av Haley, DeSantis, entreprenören Vivek Ramaswamy – och Donald Trump. Expresidenten själv har hoppat över alla primärvalsdebatter och beter sig som kandidaturen var hans. Spekulationer om huruvida primärvalen egentligen är en tävling om posten som Trumps vicepresidentkandidat är i full gång. Men Goldford tror inte han väljer någon av sina medtävlare. – Trump är så självcentrerad, för honom hänger allt på lojalitet.

Trumpkritiker ger upp presidentkampen – efter intensivt tryck

Trumpkritiker ger upp presidentkampen – efter intensivt tryck

Christie har varit under intensivt tryck för att hoppa av kandidaturkampen, sedan kritiker av storfavoriten Donald Trump påpekat vikten av att enas i gemensam kraft mot den tidigare presidenten.

– Det står klart för mig i kväll att det inte finns någon väg för mig att vinna nomineringen, vilket är anledningen till att jag avbryter min kampanj, sade Christie vid ett evenemang i Windham i New Hampshire i onsdags. Kritiserade rivalerna Han kritiserade samtidigt sina rivaler för att de ännu inte till fullo tagit den striden.

Christie, 61, har varit en av Trumps främsta kritiker och bland annat varnat väljare för att nominera en kandidat som mycket väl kan vara en dömd brottsling vid presidentvalet i november.

Så sent som i tisdags kväll insisterade Christie på att han inte hade några planer på att ge upp.

Kvar i loppet bland Republikanerna är, förutom Trump, USA:s förra FN-ambassadör Nikki Haley, entreprenören Vivek Ramaswamy samt Floridas guvernör Ron DeSantis.

Trump kallade Hamas väldigt smarta – motståndare rasar

Trump kallade Hamas väldigt smarta – motståndare rasar

Donald Trumps uttalanden om kriget mellan Hamas och Israel har fått hans politiska motståndare att rasa, skriver Washington Post. Under ett tal ska han bland annat ha kallat Hamas ”väldigt smarta” och kritiserat Benjamin Netanyahu, som han menar var dåligt beredd på Hamas storskaliga terrorattack. – Man gratulerar eller berömmer inte mördare. Punkt. Det gör man inte, sa Nikki Haley, som tävlar med Trump om att att bli nästa republikanska presidentvalskandidat. En annan kandidat, Chris Christie, menade att uttalandena tyder på att Trump inte är speciellt smart – Bara en dumbom skulle säga något sådant, sa Chris Christie till CNN. Vivek Ramaswamy, som även han vill bli republikanernas presidentvalskandidat, säger dock att Trumps stöd till Israel är starkt och väl känt och menar att kritiken är ett fall av ”selektiv moralpanik”.

En global backlash mot klimatåtgärder har börjat

En global backlash mot klimatåtgärder har börjat

Samtidigt som de stora utsläpparna börjar ställa om för klimatet syns en annan trend. En anti-klimatrörelse, skriver The Economist. Människor har börjat oroa sig för att omställningen kommer att bli dyr, obekväm och en liten andel ifrågasätter till och med om klimatförändringarna ens existerar. Som exempel på backlashen skriver tidningen om svenska Bensinupproret, Donald Trump och populistiska politiker runt om planeten. Cost, convenience and conspiracy-mongering undercut support for greenery By The Economist 11 October 2023 ”We need to be good stewards of our planet. But that doesn’t mean I need to do away with my gas vehicle and drive an electric vehicle with a battery from China,” said Kristina Karamo, the chair of the Republican Party in Michigan, on September 22nd. America’s Democrats, she warned, are trying to “convince us that if we don’t centralise power in the government, the planet is gonna die. That seems like one of the biggest scams [since] Darwinian evolution.” It would be tempting to dismiss Ms Karamo as an irrelevant crank, but she is not irrelevant. She represents an extreme wing of a movement that is gathering pace around the world: a backlash against pro-climate policies. One of its more familiar cheerleaders could be America’s next president. On September 27th Donald Trump said: “You can be loyal to American labour or you can be loyal to the environmental lunatics but you can’t really be loyal to both…Crooked Joe [Biden] is siding with the left-wing crazies who will destroy automobile manufacturing and will destroy our country itself.” On September 20th Rishi Sunak, Britain’s prime minister, announced a weakening of net-zero targets, including a five-year delay of a ban on the sale of new petrol cars. Two weeks earlier, Germany kicked a mandate to install green heating in new homes years into the future. France has seen huge protests against high fuel prices, and could one day elect as president Marine Le Pen, who deplores wind farms and thinks the energy transition should be “much slower”. In America climate change has become a culture-war battleground: at a recent debate for Republican presidential candidates, only one admitted that man-made climate change is real. How serious an obstacle is all this to curbing global carbon emissions? Michael Jacobs of the University of Sheffield in Britain sees reasons for cautious optimism. The world’s biggest emitter, China, understands the need to decarbonise and is investing massively in solar and wind. The second-biggest emitter, America, has taken a green turn under Mr Biden. Brazil has sacked a rainforest-slashing president; Australia has ditched a coal-coddling prime minister. Nearly a quarter of emissions are now subject to carbon pricing. And the pace of innovation is impressive. Two years ago the International Energy Agency, a global body, estimated that nearly 50% of the emissions reductions needed to reach net zero by 2050 would come from technologies that were not yet commercially available. In September it said that number had fallen to 35%. The political undercurrents are less reassuring. Voters are realising that remaking the entire global economy will be disruptive. Some—a minority—dispute that man-made climate change is under way. Others object to certain policies deployed to tackle it, because they impose costs on ordinary citizens, or add hassles to their overstretched daily lives. Some, particularly the elderly, do not like change at all, especially when it means fuss today in return for benefits they may not live to see. Even among those who accept that action is needed, views differ as to who should shoulder the burden. Many would prefer it to fall on someone else. Awareness of the dangers of climate change seems to have risen over the past wildfire-charred decade. In polls of 12 rich countries by Pew, an American think-tank, the share of respondents who said it was a “major threat” rose in every country except South Korea, where it was already high (see chart 1). Clear majorities everywhere bar Israel agreed with this description. Yet this does not mean they are willing to pay more taxes to help prevent climate change (see chart 2). In a survey of 29 countries by Ipsos, a pollster, only 30% of respondents said they would be willing to cough up. Perhaps most alarmingly, a partisan gap has opened even on scientific questions. In all of the 14 rich countries surveyed by Pew in 2022, people on the political right were less likely to see climate change as a major threat than those on the left (see chart 3). In Australia, Canada, Germany, the Netherlands and Sweden the gap was very large: between 22 and 44 percentage points. In America it was a gobsmacking 63 points. And a new poll by YouGov for The Economist found that whereas 87% of Biden voters believed that climate change was caused by human activity, only 21% of Trump voters agreed. In democracies such divisions have consequences. (Public opinion matters in dictatorships, too, but that is beyond the scope of this article.) In rich democracies, especially, divisions over climate are aggravated by populist politicians, who take real problems (such as cost and disruption) and exaggerate them, while claiming that the elite who impose green policies don’t care about ordinary motorists because they cycle to work. Populism tends to undermine effective climate policy in several ways. First, populists are often sceptical of experts. When people say “trust the experts”, suggests Ms Karamo, they really mean: “You are too stupid to make decisions about your life.” Second, populists are suspicious of global institutions and foreigners. “Every subsidy we award to an electric-vehicle manufacturer is really a subsidy to the [Chinese Communist Party], because we depend on them, like a noose around our neck, for the batteries,” says Vivek Ramaswamy, a Republican presidential candidate. Such attitudes are bad for climate mitigation, argues Dan Fiorino of the American University in Washington, dc, because “climate policy is as much a matter of foreign relations as it is of economic policy.” Third, populists encourage people to believe that the elite are plotting against them, thus adding paranoia to public life and making compromise harder. Mr Trump frames policies to promote electric cars as a threat to the American way of life, and does so in ways that make his fans bristle with rage and laugh out loud. “They say the happiest day when you buy an electric car is the first ten minutes you’re driving it, and then, after that, panic sets in because you’re worried. Where the hell am I gonna get a charge to keep this thing going? Panic!” he told workers in Michigan. “If you want to buy an electric car that’s absolutely fine...But we should not be forcing consumers to buy electric vehicles…There’s no such thing as a fair transition to the end of your way of life.” If Mr Trump is re-elected in 2024, he would once again pull out of the Paris Agreement on climate change. He would also roll back executive orders on such things as methane emissions. He would probably not be able to repeal Mr Biden’s big climate law (misleadingly called the Inflation Reduction Act), which involves huge subsidies that are popular with recipients in red states as well as blue ones. But he would appoint bureaucrats who could obstruct its implementation. At a minimum, America would cease to offer leadership on climate change at a crucial moment, says Senator Ed Markey, a Democrat. “You cannot preach temperance from a barstool. You cannot tell other countries to do the right thing if you as a country are not.” Similar arguments against greenery have taken root in Europe, too. Even where populist parties are not in government, they can influence it. In Sweden, where only 4% of people say climate change is “not a threat”, the centre-right ruling coalition has nonetheless cut taxes on fossil fuels several times in the past year. One reason is that it cannot pass a budget without support from the populist Sweden Democrats, who have 20% of parliamentary seats. The populists want cheaper fuel. So do lots of Swedish voters. “Fuel Rebellion”, a Swedish Facebook group, boasts 600,000 members. Peder Blohm Bokenhielm, one of its leaders, says cars “have always been a big part” of his life. His father imported American Mustangs and Corvettes to Sweden. His first word as a child was “car”. And he has practical reasons for objecting to high fuel taxes, too. In a small Swedish village “there are no shops, and just two buses a day,” he says. “If you want to buy groceries, you need a car.” Charging points are not yet everywhere, and a car’s range matters in a country where journeys are long and getting stranded in the snow is hazardous. And don’t get people started on the cost of home-heating. Politicians who keep high fuel prices in place are “making it harder for people to live where they want to live”, Mr Bokenhielm says. In Germany this year the hard-right Alternative for Germany (afd) has risen in the polls—and did well in state elections on October 8th—by lambasting the energy policies of the ruling coalition, which includes the Green Party. It says they will “impoverish” the country. The AfD is ostracised by mainstream parties, but the centre-right borrows its talking-points. The Greens hurt their own cause with a plan to make green home-heating almost mandatory before there were enough skilled installers to install heat pumps. Householders struggled to book tradesmen. The government backed down in September and extended the deadline—but the political damage had been done. Now in Germany it is not just the hard right that bashes the Greens. Their rallies have been pelted with stones, eggs and insults. Martin Huber of the Christian Social Union (csu), the main centre-right party in Bavaria, told The Economist that all the Greens do is make Verbotsgesetze (laws that forbid things). At a rally in Andechs, a pretty village 40km from Munich, the head of the csu, Markus Söder, drew guffaws from a beered-up Oktoberfest crowd with a series of jabs. When the lights suddenly brightened he quipped: “So at least they are still sending us electricity from Berlin.” An elderly supporter said: “I heat my house with wood. How can I afford to change this, and why should I in my old age?” In Britain, the Conservative prime minister has adopted the main populist themes. In a speech last month, Mr Sunak stressed that he favours curbing emissions, but decried the way Britain’s climate goals had been set “without any meaningful democratic debate about how we get there”. (His party has been in power since 2010.) He also lamented that green policies “will impose unacceptable costs”. He named specific, frightening sums. “For a family living in a terraced house in Darlington, the upfront cost [of a heat pump] could be around £10,000 ($12,200).” He vowed to scrap plans that have never seriously been considered: “taxes on eating meat…compulsory car-sharing [and] a government diktat to sort your rubbish into seven different bins”. And he played the nationalist card. “When our share of global emissions is less than 1%, how can it be right that British citizens are...told to sacrifice even more than others?” (Brits are less than 1% of the global population.) “Rishi is playing with fire,” says Michael Grubb of University College London. Businesses crave predictable policies in order to plan for the long term. “Making climate change part of a culture war will undermine investor confidence.” James Patterson of Utrecht University in the Netherlands argues that anti-green backlashes sometimes occur when environmentalists overreach; for example, by enacting policies so coercive that many people deem them illegitimate. This has happened in the Netherlands. A new populist party, the BoerBurgerBeweging (Farmer-Citizen Movement), shot to prominence when the government began to penalise farms emitting too much nitrogen. Nitrogen is not a greenhouse gas; the problem is that big intensive Dutch farms produce enough of it (from fertiliser and cowpats) to threaten important nature reserves. The government wants to buy out farmers, leading to a reduction in the number of livestock of between a fifth and a half. Such bossiness has provoked rustic rage, with tractor protests and farms across the country flying the national flag upside down. The Farmer-Citizen Movement took 20% of the vote in provincial elections this year—in a country where only 2.2% of people farm. At a general election on November 22nd the more eco-friendly parties are expecting a thumping. For the most part in developing countries, climate change is a less divisive topic in domestic politics than it is in rich ones. The elite discuss it—governments want to be compensated for the industrialised world’s past emissions and to attract investment for the energy transition. But during elections in India or Africa the topic is barely mentioned. However, voters in developing countries are even more sensitive to rises in the cost of living than those in rich countries. So they often resist policies that they think will batter their budgets. Hence the difficulty of cutting fossil-fuel subsidies, which were a staggering $1.3trn (1.3% of global gdp) in 2022, according to the imf. Such handouts are so popular that the harm they do to the environment is seldom motive enough for governments to get rid of them. Nigeria’s new president, Bola Tinubu, scrapped a fuel subsidy this year not because it encouraged people to burn carbon, but because selling petrol at below-market prices was bankrupting the treasury. In 2022 it cost $10bn, leaving the state oil firm with nothing left for the federal government, of which it is usually the biggest bankroller. Abolishing the subsidy frees up billions for public services, with the happy side-effect of reducing emissions. However, there is pressure to reinstate it. As oil prices rise, some fear a subsidy will be quietly reintroduced. Several middle-income countries, such as Indonesia and India, are burning more fossil fuels even as they try to reinvent themselves as green powers. India’s government plans to triple renewable-electricity-generation capacity by the end of the decade. It has also declared a moratorium on new coal plants and aims to become a big producer of green hydrogen. This is good news, but seems to be driven at least as much by worries about energy security as climate change: last year’s green-hydrogen strategy mentions a plan to be “energy independent” by 2047 before the target to achieve “net zero” by 2070. And despite the moratorium on new coal plants, Indian coal production grew by 14.8% last year. National-security arguments can be a spur to green investment. Building wind farms can reduce dependence on energy imports, which is a point that many politicians emphasise. But if such arguments also spur governments to erect barriers to foreign inputs, it will make the energy transition more costly. From a green perspective, the big middle-income country that has improved the most in the past year is probably Brazil. Yet it, too, is complicated. Under President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, who took office in January, deforestation in the Amazon in the first eight months of the year fell by a cumulative 48% compared with the same period in 2022, when his logger-loving predecessor, Jair Bolsonaro, was in charge. However, Lula also supports a push by Petrobras, the state oil firm, to increase output from 2.9m barrels a day to 5.2m by 2030. And his green plans have met resistance. In Congress 347 out of 594 lawmakers belong to the agri-business caucus, whose members fret that greens block development. Congress has curbed the powers of the environment ministry. In most developing countries, net-zero targets are far in the future and voters have not yet been asked to make big sacrifices to reach them. For many, the harm wrought by climate change itself is a bigger worry. A massive 74% of Indians, for example, say they have experienced the effects of global warming, up from 50% in 2011, according to a survey by Yale University. “We’ve lost crops because of extreme heat and rains and it has got worse in the past few years,” says Shiv Kumari, a farm labourer in Delhi whose fields were flooded this summer. Such trauma translates into greater support for green policies: 55% of Indians say India should reduce its emissions immediately without waiting for other countries to act, up from 36% in 2011. Globally, innovation will eventually ease the grumbles that drive so much of the anti-climate backlash. “The clean is already cheaper than the dirty in many parts of the economy, and those parts will just get bigger and bigger,” says Nicholas Stern of the London School of Economics. But it matters immensely how fast this happens. Many green technologies require hefty upfront investment, which is harder when interest rates are high. This particularly affects the poor world. “Look at Africa. If you pay 15% interest, wind and solar are not cheaper than fossil fuels for generating electricity, though they are cheaper at 7% or 8%,” says Professor Stern. He suggests supercharging multilateral lenders to crowd in other sources of finance. “The most unrealistic and dangerous thing of all would be to go slow,” he says. © 2023 The Economist Newspaper Limited.

Hutchinson missar debatten – och Trump skippar den

Hutchinson missar debatten – och Trump skippar den

Sju republikanska politiker har kvalificerat sig för att vara med på onsdagens tv-debatt i jakten på Vita huset: Ron DeSantis, Mike Pence, Nikki Haley, Vivek Ramaswamy, Tim Scott, Chris Christie och Doug Burgum. Det skriver Fox News. Jämfört med den första debatten är det bara en presidentkandidat som inte längre får vara med: Asa Hutchinson. Han har inte tillräckligt många givare och väljare i opinionsmätningar. Tidigare i höstas beskrev Politico 72-åringen som ”den mest normala” i startfältet. Förhandsfavoriten Donald Trump ställer inte upp i den här debatten heller.

Analyser: Zelenskyj togs emot av Biden – men hade behövt få träffa Trump

Analyser: Zelenskyj togs emot av Biden – men hade behövt få träffa Trump

Ukrainas Volodymyr Zelenskyj togs emot i Washington av Joe Biden – men den han egentligen hade behövt träffa var Donald Trump. Det skriver DN:s Karin Eriksson i en analys över mötet i Vita huset under torsdagen. ”För Ukraina spelar det stor roll vem som blir republikanernas presidentkandidat”, skriver hon. Förutom Trump så är även Floridaguvernören Ron DeSantis och entreprenören Vivek Ramaswamy kritiska mot att USA ska skicka omfattande ekonomiskt stöd till Kyiv. CNN:s Harry Enten skriver att det inte bara handlar om Ukraina. Bland de republikanska partiets väljare sjunker stödet för att USA ska ha den största eller en stor roll i internationella affärer. Utifrån det perspektivet är det inte konstigt att Zelenskyj fick ett ljumt mottagande på Kapitolium i veckan, menar Enten.

Spricka mellan Pence och Ramaswamy – bittra fiender

Spricka mellan Pence och Ramaswamy – bittra fiender

En tydlig ”fientlighet” har uppenbarat sig mellan de republikanska presidentkandidaterna Mike Pence och Vivek Ramaswamy. Sprickan och iskylan var omöjlig att missa när de båda befann sig i New Hampshire i helgen, skriver Politico. Konflikten har pågått i över en månad. I Republikanernas första presidentvalsdebatt gick den vanligtvis lugna Pence till attack, konstaterar den republikanska rådgivaren Matthew Bartlett. – Det såg personligt ut. Han blev djupt kränkt på scenen. Skillnaderna är stora både ideologiskt och åldersmässigt mellan 63-årige Pence och 38-årige Ramaswamy – och de vänder sig till helt olika väljargrupper. Fivethirtyeight konstaterar att stödet för Ramaswamy har ökat rejält på senare tid. Även om han har långt kvar till att på allvar utmana om segern är han ett framtidsnamn i Republikanerna, skriver statistiksajten. Han är också en möjlig kandidat till vicepresidentposten om Trump skulle vinna.

380. A Resurgence of Vision | Vivek Ramaswamy

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson and 2024 presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy discuss his ongoing campaign, the long-growing hunger for depth in political discussion, the dire need for a renewed American vision, and how Vivek plans to strip the Washington administrative agencies of their unconstitutional powers. Vivek Ramaswamy is an entrepreneur, author, and political activist. Vivek has been making headlines since announcing his candidacy for the 2024 presidential election, running on a platform in part to dismantle the expansive and corrupt bureaucracy that has seeped into nearly all facets of American government. Prior to this, Ramaswamy was the founder and CEO of the biopharmaceutical company Roivant Sciences. Leaving in 2021, he published “Woke, Inc.: Inside Corporate America's Social Justice Scam.” In 2022, he co-founded Strive Asset Management with Anson Frericks, which focuses on an alternative to the now-pushed ESG investment framework. That same year Ramaswamy published “Nation of Victims: Identity Politics, the Death of Merit, and the Path Back to Excellence.” and has since been deemed one of the “Intellectual Godfathers of the anti-woke movement.”  - Links - For Vivek Ramaswamy: For more information on Vivek’s campaign:  https://www.vivek2024.com/  

Bitcoin on the Ballot with Vivek Ramaswamy - WBD740

Vivek Ramaswamy is a 2024 US presidential candidate. In this interview, we discuss Vivek’s decision to run for president, his experiences in the corporate world and his belief in American ideals like free speech and meritocracy. Vivek outlines his plans to reduce government size, address national debt and protect individual wealth. We also talk about the importance of constitutional principles and why he may be the most pro-Bitcoin candidate in American history. - - - - Vivek Ramaswamy has had a massive impact on the Republican primaries. A relative novice in a field of candidates dominated by Republican big hitters like DeSantis, Haley, Christie and Pence, Vivek has rapidly taken his place amongst the leading contenders for the Republican presidential nomination with a largely self-funded campaign. In some polls, Vivek has placed second behind Trump. A former biotech CEO, Vivek has decided to enter politics as a means to drive change. He states this decision came after witnessing a suffocating environment in corporate America. Vivek's journey into politics is not a conventional one. He is not a career politician, nor does he come from a high-profile business background. Instead, he believes he is an outsider with a unique set of attributes who can offer a viable alternative to the status quo. We discuss his belief that a strand of progressivism has been weaponized as a deflection tool by those in power to avoid accountability for their failures. Vivek emphasises that his critique of “woke” ideology is not specifically directed at the left, but is based on a reaction to the dangers posed by the merger of state, corporate, and institutional power. All the while, the critical issues being faced by the country, such as drug addiction and the neglect of cities, continue to exacerbate. Vivek outlines his plan to reduce the size of the federal government by 75% and suggests that the US president has the power to do so on day one. He believes in zero-based budgeting and illustrates the need to reassess the necessity of each budget item from the ground up. He also criticises the trillions of dollars spent on foreign wars and proposes a policy of not providing foreign aid to countries with lower national debt per capita than the United States. We also discuss the importance of protecting individual wealth and Vivek’s advocacy for Bitcoin. His comprehensive crypto policy includes restoring constitutional principles such as protecting the freedom to code, financial self-reliance and the freedom to innovate. And, for a community where signal is everything, it’s important to note that he’s the first Republican politician to enable Bitcoin lightning donations, and he could also be the first-ever presidential candidate to own Bitcoin. - Show notes: https://www.whatbitcoindid.com/podcast/bitcoin-on-the-ballot This episode’s sponsors: Iris Energy - Bitcoin Mining.

341. Jordan Peterson Interviews Presidential Candidate Vivek Ramaswamy

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson and Vivek Ramaswamy discuss ESG investing, the culture wars, the upcoming US presidential election, and Vivek’s recently announced candidacy. Vivek is an American business leader and New York Times bestselling author of “Woke, Inc.: Inside Corporate America’s Social Justice Scam,” along with his second book, “Nation of Victims: Identity Politics, the Death of Merit, and the Path Back to Excellence.” Born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, he often recounts the sage advice from his father: “If you’re going to stand out, then you might as well be outstanding.” This set the course for his life: a nationally ranked tennis player, and the valedictorian of his high school, St. Xavier. He went on to graduate summa cum laude in Biology from Harvard and received his J.D. from Yale Law School while working at a hedge fund, then started a biotech company, Roivant Sciences, where he oversaw the development of five drugs that went on to become FDA-approved. In 2022, he founded Strive, an Ohio-based asset management firm that directly competes with asset managers like BlackRock, State Street, Vanguard, and others, who use the money of everyday citizens to advance environmental and social agendas that many citizens and capital owners disagree with.
