Only if it had something to do with race. If it's because you don't think their manufacturing standards are high enough to feel safe that wouldn't be racist per se.

China is closer to neo-mercantilism due to the level if direct state involvement in private business.

Not nothing it's over a vague allusion in an email which I think we can all agree is an absolute smoking gun. After all it says "the big guy" which HAS to be POTUS Biden and couldn't be any of the list of other guys Hunter was doing business with because as we all know no one has ever used "the big guy" to refer to anyone else /s

Wasn't DeSantis involved in torture at Gitmo as a lawyer?

It wasn't redefined. They just never fully understood the definition. It isn't just two quarters of negative growth though that's the common definition. The NBER, who declare recessions, look at other aspects such as employment numbers before making the call. The employment numbers were too good to justify calling it a recession.

No they did not. The NBER is always the office that declares a recession and they did not do so because employment numbers did not match recession like conditions.

The NBER, who declare recessions, never said there was one because the jobs numbers did not in any way suggest a recession. It's not just two quarters of negative growth that determine a recession and based on the fact that in Q1&2 it was fairly easy to find work suggested to the NBER that we weren't in a recession but rather a new an undefined situation.

Google Charlie Kirk and then wonder why he chose to be a right wing grifter rather than sell his shrink ray.

Shrink faced guy is an Evangelical Christian so no yarmulke for him.
