It’s almost as if skyrocketing homelessness isn’t caused by addiction or mental illness, but by millions of people being rent-gouged out of a place to live.
A Los Angeles Times headline reads, "Large majority of homeless people in California are not illicit drug users, study finds."

Listen this IS in fact how it’s done. Georgetown Law Dean William Treanor responds to Acting U.S. Atty Ed Martin’s threat to refuse to hire Georgetown graduates who have taken “DEI” courses in their curriculum. Treanor is a brilliant lawyer & constitutional scholar. Embarrassing for Martin.

In our internal polling, among Democrats likely to vote in the spring Supreme Court election, 1% approve of Elon Musk. How many disapprove? 94%. I’ve never seen *anyone* so loathed.

They should resign, and the very public resignation letter should read “I have no intention of lying about our journalism in order to provide Paramount with a pretext for paying Donald Trump a bribe.” Which is transparently what this is.

Having spent a few too many years of my life studying vitamin A supplementation and infections/survival, I can confirm that vitamin A is not a panacea. The MMR vaccine remains the most safe and effective way to avoid getting the measles.

True. Take up seats at the beginning so Republicans can’t fill the whole room, then have one person get up every time he tells a lie. I’d bet you will all be out of the room within 10 minutes!

Tens of millions of Americans rely on Medicaid (and most uninsured people are eligible for it) but even if you don't use Medicaid, cutting its budget means that entire hospitals, clinics, and other medical practices and facilities will shut down. Literally everyone's healthcare access will be worse.

Again, any time a Republican says we have to slash Medicaid to fix the deficit, they need to be asked why we shouldn’t just increase taxes on the rich. It’s a zero sum game. Make them defend giving more money to billionaires over keeping ordinary people healthy.

Amazing scenes. There’s a reason Trump/Elon love the executive orders and the king routine, and part of it is: they don’t have the votes to do it constitutionally.

I am so sick of this shit. It’s a Sieg Heil. It’s a Nazi salute. Anyone who sees it knows. It’s ridiculous that legal departments presumably won’t let media call it what it is. Bannon made “a provocative gesture that resembled the salute Elon Musk gave at a post-inauguration rally”? Fuck off.
The Daily Beast tweet:
“Steve Bannon whipped up the CPAC crowd by talking about the possibility of Trump staying in office for a third term - and concluded his speech by giving a provocative gesture that resembled the salute Elon Musk gave at a post-inauguration rally last month.”

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.
