There have been a lot of kooky hot takes about the election, but an unusually bizarre one is the claim that a more regressive and exploitative trade policy would’ve helped the Harris campaign. @MelindaPubCit debunks this nonsense in this Financial Times contribution:…
Donald Trump is a threat to our institutions, our values, and our democracy. But as @Rob_Weissman & @Lisa_PubCitizen point out, his election victory is no time for despair, it's time to fight back, together!

Over the past couple of weeks, corporate lobbyists have been advocating nonstop for digital neoliberalism. They use a lot of jargon, but here’s the gist of it: they’re mad that the Administration decided not to support trade policies that make it difficult to regulate AI.
#Kenya & the #US are hurriedly & secretively negotiating a trade agreement ahead of the Nov. elections with grave threats like removal of limits on foreign ownership of Kenyan land. On why texts should be public: afronomicslaw.org/index.php/cate… @afronomicslaw @EricLatiff @Public_Citizen
