This administration’s top priority in fighting corruption is to target…Lisa Cook. Maybe Hannah Arendt said it at some point—authoritarianism isn’t without irony.

I see “super” and want to replace it with “supa dupa fly”, which doesn’t make it better but it’s funnier

There's one man I've wanted to give a copy of Banned Book Club to since 2020. Moon Jae-In. But I couldn't because he was busy being president. It was the last panel of our book! Today, we got the chance. But that wasn't the best part.

This advice is a case where stratification economics would be quite useful to economists speaking about politics. It would show the fallacy of the base assumption. Economists view politics as about policy, but it’s much more about identity and intranational competition over resources and power.

How much US higher education policy makes more sense if a University was understood as a portfolio of sports teams with a large non-profit institution attached to it, in order to generate life-long support and tax advantages?

My total time working in concrete added up to about 10 months. It left me with carpal tunnel syndrome, a back injury, and a bunch of the skin ripped off my left arm from a supervisor's easily avoidable error. I loved it, learned a ton from it, but I'd be on my way to an early grave if I'd stayed in.

Pulte is the most shameless, but the overall picture is bad. We now have Inspector Generals who are party members, or previously worked for the people they are supposed to be investigating. Career IG officials know they will be fired for doing their job. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/governing-...

After he fired the Veteran’s Administration Inspector General, Trump replaced him with another of his appointees, Cheryl Mason, who was a senior adviser to the Secretary of VA she was not tasked with overseeing. The new IG soon stopped issuing alerts about problems in VA after her former boss complained they were distracting, and no longer allows staff to brief Congressional committees on forthcoming reports, weakening the ability of Congress to exert oversight. A staffer in her office said: “If you believe in independent oversight, that’s not what we were doing…It’s got all the agents worried about doing anything that puts us on anyone’s radar.” Staff who raise concerns with Mason say they are likely to be labeled “a resister, and they are totally blackballed.”
