The media analysts at towers of ilium have spent the better week distilling the truth for the sake of our loyal readership. So, with no further delays:
-The war between Steve Bannon and mainstream Republicans is mostly a sham. Nothing will be reliable except election results in next year's midterms. Roy Moore is headed for the Senate before that happens but his effects will be negligible in the greater scheme of things.
-Puerto Rico is in bad shape. The scandal involving Whitefish Energy has legs. Hopefully, there will be some good stories there, and more importantly, the power grid will be restored soon.
-The other shoe is dropping for some Internet giants. Russian spies are mildly amused.
-New housing starts in Massachusetts fell sharply on a year over year basis. Is this a sign of an economic downturn or simply a consequence of exhaustive permitting processes and the challenges of land acquisition for development? Renovations to homes appears to be a robust business.
