I'm in CA. Prop 45 doesn't seem good at all. It harms the environment & costs $$. It's opposed by countless environmental groups, major healthcare organizations, labor unions, and affordable housing groups. It's endorsed by the Republican Party for the donors, the oil companies.

Kash is settling down, folks. I'm just talking marriage, though. Only question is: Will we be covering the wedding, too? #Kash

Great explanation of state laws granting massive tax breaks to private golf courses. The 300-member L.A. Country Club was built in 1897 and has 330 acres of prime real estate. Using fair use, property tax is estimated at $60-$90M yearly. LACC pays ~$300K. #taxgolf www.taxnotes.com/featured-ana...

Parents refusing the vitamin K shot for their newborns has increased by 57% in 2026 alone. This puts their babies at risk for brain and GI bleeds. Rate of refusal is higher for girls than boys, as some hospitals won’t circumcise male infants unless they’ve had the shot. RFK Jr. caused this.

Perhaps, just spitballing, this has to do with the fact that 91% of former NFL players studied have CTE (chronic traumatic encephalopathy). That sounds like a brain-injured delusion if ever there was one. www.bumc.bu.edu/camed/2023/0...

But not every DOGE operator was a digital arsonist. Take Dan Berulis, a DOGE staffer who came out of the private sector and later turned whistleblower over the group's activities, who now faces assassination attempts: www.wired.com/story/he-ble... 29/

He Blew the Whistle on DOGE. Then His Brakes Were Cut

A federal IT staffer filed a complaint about DOGE, then went public. Shortly after Elon Musk boosted a post calling his claims false, his brake lines were cut. Now he’s suing for defamation.

But the USDS's legacy is bitter. In 2025, USDS was effectively dismantled and replaced with DOGE, Elon Musk's handpicked team of tech-bro cultists who set out to dismantle as much of the US government as possible. 22/

One of the worst: "What, uniquely, does writing do? It compels thought." The above is wrong in every aspect. I mean, if you must, "what does writing do that's unique?" Second, and this should be profoundly obvious, many things other than writing compel thought. #BretStephens

Honestly, if this is what your writing looks like after years as a professional columnist, fuck it. Just go ahead and use AI.

Do none of these things not because they are unethical. Writing with A.I. is unethical when it’s a deception: when you pass off words, ideas and information as your own when they aren’t. An acknowledgment can largely address the problem. Do none of these things, either, because you might be able to learn to write better than an A.I. can. Pretty soon, if not already, you won’t, just as you can’t outrun a car or outplay a chess app.

Exactly. Mr. Nixon is correct. Run on the policies, making life better for their constituents. The word socialism doesn’t hook people on the cusp. It’s politics, it’s not pure, but it gets the votes AND you really can make people’s lives better.
