George W. Bush may think that a war against Iraq is the solution to our problems, but the reality is, it will only serve to create far more.

Counterpoint: it's fine for Universities to cut ties with people for being sex creeps. In fact, it's a positive good. Far too many women avoid academia precisely because of shitheads like Summers. Add to the fact that his code name for her was "peril", likely in reference to "yellow peril"...

The guns are the problem. Whether it’s high school students or Charlie Kirk or anyone else getting shot, this country has to crack down on guns and pass actual gun control laws to protect everyone’s safety.

EJ Antoni has never worked in statistics collection. He is 5 years out of his PhD. He's only ever written one economics paper. His explicit, only qualifications are that he works in ultra-conservative think tanks & believes Trump's conspiracies about the BLS. Grim stuff.

In case you had any doubt, Trump admits that he’s just firing the BLS commissioner because accurate jobs data made him look bad. Instead of fixing the economy he wants to attack the people who measure it.
In my opinion, today’s Jobs Numbers were RIGGED in order to make the Republicans, and ME, look bad — Just like when they had three great days around the 2024 Presidential Election, and then, those numbers were “taken away” on November 15, 2024, right after the Election, when the Jobs Numbers were massively revised DOWNWARD, making a correction of over 818,000 Jobs — A TOTAL SCAM. Jerome “Too Late” Powell is no better! But, the good news is, our Country is doing GREAT!

At the risk of getting yelled at, this is part of why I keep saying blue state NIMBYism is a travesty for democracy. When we make it so that low-income immigrants, LGBTQ people and pregnant people can't afford to live where they want, think about what they end up being subject to.

sometimes i wonder whether it is worth trying to rebrand “NIMBYism” as just “anti-houseism” because opposition to placing homes near malls is just the absolute best example of how these people are opposed to the idea of anyone living anywhere

THREAD: The Trump administration's DOJ has removed a study from the NIJ website that found that immigrants, and particularly undocumented immigrants, commit crimes at significantly lower rates than U.S. citizens. The study is at odds with the Trump regime's propaganda about immigrants & crime. (1)

I think focusing on current law versus current policy is getting it wrong. The key takeaway is Republicans are breaking the rules of the Senate so they can pass giant tax cuts for the rich while taking away health care from the sick and food from the needy. www.americanprogress.org/article/sena...

Senate Republicans Are Ignoring Senate Rules To Cut Taxes for the Rich
The Senate majority made clear its intent to add trillions of dollars to the national debt while taking food away from the hungry and health care away from the poor.

Monstrously destructive, incoherent, ill-informed tariffs based on fabrications, imagined wrongs, discredited theories and ignorance of decades of evidence. And the real tragedy is that they will hurt working Americans more than anyone else.

Again, nobody is forcing them to put tariffs on bananas, coffee, avocados, or any of the hundreds food/minerals/materials that literally can't be obtained in the US. They could write exemptions for any or all of them. Instead they press the "make groceries more expensive" button.

This seems like a good time to remind folks of what Hannah Arendt once wrote:
Total domination does not allow for free initiative
in any field of life, for any activity that is not entirely predictable. Totali-
tarianism in power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of
their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools whose lack of intelligence
and creativity is still the best guarantee of their loyalty.u

Yeah, this shit drives me insane, this: the idea that you need to take a position on the abstract platonic concept of regulations/markets. Ones that produce good outcomes are good, ones that produce bad outcomes are bad! It’s public policy, not a theoretical thought experiment: what it does matters.

America's housing stock is the oldest it's ever been and just keeps getting older. We don't have enough homes in this country and too much of what we have is dated and decaying.
