Look how easy this is - a Mayor who recognizes a problem, addresses it, and calls out shady business practices by scummy providers. Everyone can take a lesson from Hizzoner.

This is medieval - the man committed a serious crime, I’m opposed to capital punishment but the sentence has been handed down and it looks like it will be carried out, as wrong as I think that is. But to livestream this?? It’s a new low even for these people.

Assholes at the NY Times with another hit piece on Mary Peltola, describing her “personal life” as “topsy turvy” and pointing out that she’s had “three husbands.” Newt Gingrich has had three wives, and screwed the second and third while he was married. Honestly, fuck all these people.

It’s these transaction costs that lots of people don’t understand. The extra hour(s) you have to waste on something like this takes an emotional toll … it’s why we need Medicare for All, better safety nets and fairer taxation. Those steps would make a difference at the micro & macro levels.

No you wouldn’t, because the majority leader - who decides what matters get voted on by the Senate - would be a Republican. That means all of Trump’s judicial nominees world get floor votes and probably get confirmed, as would all of his other appointees. So no, we don’t want that at all.
