So there aren't any major airline hubs in his state. Which 1 - he thinks it's low risk. 2 should he be focusing on growing his states value. Republicans should see this as a biz fail.

When the Cincinnati Post shut down, it oddly had an effect on local elections. Fewer people ran for office, voter turnout fell, and incumbents became more likely to win. That's useful context for Trump's choice to ban 3 news orgs from the White House newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/what-econo...

San Diego County is considering banning federal immigration agencies from using county firearms training facilities, as two supervisors argued that local firing ranges should not be “a training ground for President Trump’s mass deportation agenda.” cal.news/3Sh4tm0 📸 Adriana Heldiz

''The crackdown could compel some New York City homeowners to either pay the pied-à-terre tax or claim New York residency and forfeit lower income tax rates in other states where they own property, like Florida, Pennsylvania or North Carolina.

we literally stand on the shoulders of giants. towering figures who have exited the world. fierce intellects who believed things like "you can ban or regulate dangerous stuff" and "societies can rein in excesses," and "peace is generally preferable to war and chaos." may as well have been aliens

GOP: We want TRADITIONAL 1950s American values!  

Me: So new social programs? Infrastructure funding? Cheap college? No for-profit healthcare?  

GOP: What? No!  

Me: Oh, so strong banking regulations? 91% tax rate over $2m a year?  

GOP: God no, we just wanna be openly racist again.

The framing here is notable: “a concerning sign” … “for the U.S. economy.” Not for “the U.S. health care system.” Not for “people’s health and stability.”

Thanks to advances in solar, wind & battery technology, we can make the transition to renewable energy while lowering costs and creating good jobs. It can even be a unifying national project, if we can break the stranglehold of Trump’s fossil fuel profiteer allies. (2/2)
