Not so long ago, the depoliticisation of money was a widely accepted observation. Meanwhile, Trump’s attacks on CBI, militarised Sondervermögen, and the rise of Bitcoin point to repoliticisation. 1/3
Trump's tariffs, industrial policy, and feuds with Powell aren't the end of neoliberalism but a reshuffling of its supporting cast. As our article of the week shows, the system's actual core remains intact.

Trump’s economic agenda is testing the institutional foundations of neoliberalism, not just its policies find @thinkwoodist.bsky.social and @vapunkt.bsky.social blogs.lse.ac.uk/usappblog/20...
The Syllabus
Given the Federal Reserve’s key role in leading neoliberal policies, if Trump can successfully reduce its power, this would signal genuine system change.
Terrific short piece by @paulcairney.bsky.social that's equally applicable to Canada's federal govt. Important for advocates (in public health and otherwise) to get past the 'speaking truth to power' understanding of advocacy that buys into this mistaken view of how policymaking works.

There is a prevailing story in Westminster about how policymaking works. That story is a myth, but it still matters.
