Breaking new ground

William H. J. Hubbard (Chicago): Quantum Economics, Newtonian Economics, and Law. Mixing politics and sports: James M. Dorsey on Turkish soccer campaigns for President Erdogan. Josh Barro on the Gianforte body-slam and how the GOP is stuck in a high-school mindset. Trump reportedly wants to stop Germans from selling so many cars here, where they’re made. The introduction to Money Talks: Explaining How Money Really Works, ed. Nina Bandelj, Frederick F. Wherry and Viviana A. Zelizer. Washington Post, breaking news, is also breaking new ground.

Don’t forget: Trump is brazenly lying about NATO. The fix is in; NATO is out. “Close to a disaster”: Foreign policy scholar explains massive damage done by Trump’s NATO speech. No, Trump can’t get through a trip without creating chaos. Trump’s behavior at NATO is a national embarrassment.
