Opinion | Raskin withdrawal lets Biden pick a bank regulator who will focus on banks, not climate

However, Raskin is wrong about another big thing: her oft-stated belief that economic regulators should play a bigger role in that fight. Raskin withdrew her name from consideration to be the Fed’s top bank regulator on Tuesday, which freed the Biden administration to do what it should have done in the first place: nominate someone who will keep their focus on stabilizing banks.

Determining the ABV of the Most Beloved Cartoon Beers

“I would kill everyone in this room for a drop of sweet beer.”  This is what Homer Simpson murmured to himself during a Tupperware party thrown by his loathsome sisters-in-law, Patty and Selma. Normally, Homer would have made it through such an occasion by drowning himself in some Duff, but this particular party took place just after he failed a breathalyzer test and vowed to Marge he wouldn’t drink for a month. And so, he was forced to sit through the party entirely sober, which nearly pushed him over the edge. But what, exactly, was Homer depriving himself of?  Being just The Simpsons version of Budweiser, I’ve always had the impression that Duff was kind of a crappy, low-alcohol, beer — hardly… Source link
