Libertarian economist Javier Milei’s smashing landslide victory is the most radical thing to happen to Argentina in decades. But his win portends more than just a free-market revolution on the pampas. It’s just the latest example of a trend we’ve been seeing for decades: the triumph of blue-collar conservative fusionist populism. Milei is routinely portrayed in the western press as an Argentine Trump with crazy economic policies. There’s some truth to that.

Nikki Haley is now the favorite “not Donald Trump” candidate in the race for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024. The former ambassador to the United Nations has been making a big push among Republicans in New Hampshire ahead of the state’s primary vote on January 23. And her efforts seem to be paying off. A new CBS poll from New Hampshire puts Haley on 29 percent, behind Donald Trump on 44 percent, with flailing Ron DeSantis a distant third on 11 percent.

The Cybertruck is here. Finally. Maybe. Sort of. Thursday was the “Cybertruck Delivery Event,” where they finally rolled off the production line and were handed over to waiting customers. Musk served as chaperone, host and speaker, and the event was a hype-fest for fanboys. As the presentation started, it was hard to tell whether some in the crowd were shouting “Elon” or “hallelujah” (I think the latter).

Hasan’s show has been canceled but he will remain with the network as an on-camera analyst and fill-in host. Ayman Mohyeldin’s program will expand an hour to replace the vacated slot.

Anything else would be unthinkable.
