@california-hcd.bsky.social Can we get an edit? I’m pretty sure the reason that the housing element matters is not because it’s the arbitrary standard the state uses to distribute grant money, but rather, because it’s how the state allegedly guarantees its people dignified housing and land use law

Personal Finance tip: if you, like me, are a very large man, hangout near an ATM. When you see an old person make a large withdrawal, you can easily beat them up and take their money!

I think Steve Hilton’s plan to eliminate California’s forests to enable more suburban sprawl is going underappreciated.

Don’t let the Federal Govermetnment killing an American citizen distract you from the fact that tomorrow morning the Federal Governmet will be deporting 40 Iranians back to Iran, where their government recently killed thousands of protestors.

Trump and his cronies are trying to crash the price of Blackstone and other housing stocks so they can buy them cheap. Don’t believe for a single second that Trump is serious about banning corporate investment in housing. Even if they do some slapped together EO, it will have huge loopholes.

I see some libs giving Trump credit for Gaza, and that’s fair. However I think the main reason Trump felt it necessary to pressure Netanyahu was due to a shift in public opinion as Republicans, especially young Republicans, have begun to turn against Israel en masse.

As much as I despise’s Kirk’s politics, which are hateful, violent, and cruel, I can’t help but think back to my time working Dem Campaigns. We had to open the mail outside for fear of bombs, and I always had one eye on the parking lot. Political speech should not subject people to violence.

Markets are so dumb. They got themselves all excited for rate cuts yesterday then immediately get swatted down by reality with today’s inflation report. What did you all expect? Tax cuts for the rich? Inflationary. Tariffs? Inflationary. Disappearing brown workers? Inflationary.

Canada and the US are both car-centric, spacious countries. But an American is 2.5x more likely to die in a crash than a Canadian – and the gap is widening. My latest, in Bloomberg. 🧵

Despite similar infrastructure and vehicle fleets, the US and Canada are going in very different directions when it comes to traffic safety. A new study breaks down the divergence.

MLB’s first female umpire will make her debut in Atlanta on Saturday! This is long overdue; I’ve had the personal pleasure of umpiring with many talented women and I look forward to seeing her take her rightful spot in The Show! On Sunday, 1:35EST, tune in to watch her call balls and strikes!

Obama gets it: Anti-housing policies — making it hard to build housing, restrictive zoning, endless permit process — undermine Democrats. Creating a housing shortage drives up cost of living, harms & disillusions young & working class people & drives them into the arms of grifters like Trump.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

@economist.com isn’t pulling any punches! The budget bill Trump is trying to force through Congress to satisfy his political base will kneecap the American economy for many, many years. I won’t be surprised if this causes the US population to become stagnant over the course of the next decade.
In Greek mythology the chimera was part lion, part goat and part snake, but wholly monstrous. Despite its name, there is a chimerical air to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (BBB), the Republican tax-and-spending plan lurching through Congress this week. It sutures to a body of government-shrinking Reaganism an appendage of populist Trumpism, both disfigured by carve-outs and fillips for individual lawmakers. It will menace the American economy for at least a decade.

When I went to a Trump Rally in 2016 he slandered General Pershing’s honorable service in the Philippines by congratulating his imprisonment and slaughtering of dozens of Muslim Clerics. The family begged him to stop but he continued for many months.

Our immigration system is broken because Congress failed for close to a century. Enforcement goals have been too strict, the funding they provide law enforcement insufficient, and the paperwork requirements are absurd, expensive, & time consuming. Comprehensive reform is required. Not deportations.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

Just a tip for local news in LA covering things today (specifically @ktla.com, who I am watching now). A late night shop looting is not a protest against ICE in anyway shape or form. At most, you can speculate that police were distracted allowing opportunistic thugs to do crime.
