Breitbart: Argentina's GDP Growth Larger than China's in First Three Months of 2025
Argentina's GDP growth reached 5.8% in the first quarter of 2025, surpassing China's 5.4%. This growth is attributed to significant increases in private consumption, investment, and exports, as the economy recovers from previous hardships and inflation drops dramatically.
President Javier Milei's "shock therapy" measures have contributed to this economic turnaround, including lifting foreign currency controls and securing a $20 billion IMF deal. Economists note that this growth reflects a recovery in key sectors, signaling a more stable economic cycle ahead.
Breitbart: Fed Moves to End 'Reputational Risk' Policies 'Weaponized' by Left to Debank
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell announced that the Fed will no longer consider "reputational risk" in its bank supervision, addressing concerns over "debanking," where individuals or groups lose banking access due to their political affiliations or activities. This decision follows similar moves by the OCC and FDIC.
Critics argue that the Fed's actions do not fully eliminate the risks associated with debanking, citing past policies that discouraged banks from serving the cryptocurrency industry. Advocates for reform emphasize the need for banks to focus on financial risk rather than political considerations, urging Congress to take further legislative action.
