Deutsche Bank economists guess who's dots belong to whom

A senior Treasury official was caught bringing a loaded gun into HQ. She was detained by Secret Service & questioned about it. She said her fiance put it in her purse weeks earlier & she had no idea. She then resigned

Laid off by WSJ, ace China policy reporter Kate O'Keeffe scooped up by Bloomberg

So excited to be working with the great Kate O'Keeffe again! Welcome to Bloomberg!

***Today is my first day at Bloomberg, where I will continue investigating U.S.-China tech and national security issues!***

Congrats to Ted Mann — a terrific reporter and human.

Scoop: Biden's budget got a touch rosier after a fall debate among aides as markets churned. It uses slightly lower interest rate forecasts backed by NEC Director Lael Brainard, deviating from a custom where a trio of others hash it out.

Ted also broke the news that the feds are investigating Vince McMahon — a story that he managed to get across the finish line despite the chaos of the last few days. That story is on the front page of the Journal today. Ted Mann is the real deal.

My 25 years at The Wall Street Journal ended yesterday, and it was a privilege to have served the last eight in the Washington bureau. I learned so much about how to do good journalism. My passion for news isn't dissipated, and I'm excited to get back to work.

Over the past 25 years I’ve worked on so many stories with many of the reporters on this list and they’re all super talented. I’m confident they’ll end up with jobs, but if they all got together and started their own newsroom I’d be first in line to subscribe.

The WSJ lost a group of brilliant editors and reporters today due to layoffs in our Washington bureau: all deeply sourced, experts on their beats and full of camaraderie and decency. A massive loss for our journalism. To other news orgs: Please hire them.

If you read any of my work over the past year and thought, 'huh, that's a clear, helpful explanation of a complicated tax thing,' it's because Emily Stephenson took the raw tax-nerd copy and made it better and sharper.

She's a gem of an editor and someone should hire her soon.

Ackerman is a top of the line talent, delivering scoop after finreg scoop. And I don’t just say that because we share a first name. He is a star who dominated the aftermath of the SVB collapse. You’d think WSJ would value that more
