@KaiDaigoji @matthewstoller Also wasn’t the “plan” basically already on potus’s desk when Obama came in? He obv had final decision and he chose to bailout instead of hold ppl/companies responsible, but most of the work putting that together was previous admin/congress

@matthewstoller The bailout was a bipartisan decision to avoid a Great Depression. If you don't understand that, you're not smart enough to have an opinion on the national economy.

It’s pretty simple. The bailout was the bipartisan decision to create an oligarchy. The ugly truth is Obama is an albatross for Democrats precisely because they like him too much to admit it.
Zaid Jilani@ZaidJilani

For years, Yglesias and Dem establishment argued the bailout was a big success. But here's the thing. Millions of Americans lost their homes. Wall Street lost nothing. No prosecutions, not even real haircuts. The bailout was structured to deepen American inequality.

This is such horseshit, and to give just one example: The reconciliation process was supposed to be for deficit reduction. But George W. Bush wanted to pass giant tax cuts. The parliamentarian said it couldn't be used for that. So Republicans fired the parliamentarian.
Acyn@Acyn

Fleischer: For decades, Republicans lived with Supreme Court rulings they didn’t like. Roe V Wade. Republicans didn’t say we need to rig the Supreme Court. They worked within the system to change the way things worked.

@SpectacularPods @byelin McConnell followed the advice of Joe Biden (1992) and Chuck (2007) Schumer. They said let the winner of the next election pick the open seat in the SCOTUS. You don't get to cry when your party set the standard.

@redshirt990 A cruel irony since it was Edmond Albius, a 12 year old enslaved boy who discovered how to hand-pollinate vanilla orchards which allowed for mass production. He of course died in poverty

Some examples: Black people weren't allowed to have vanilla in a lot of our stores so we made butter pecan ice cream to get a similar taste. Weren't allowed at most gas stations in America we had to map out routes Our grocery stores were given bad food

@cds_art_ A data center complying with environmental laws, will unironically be better equipped to maintain this land and invest in its long term health than a poor county govt. Same reason why military bases protected a lot of endangered species. More money = more resources.

@dogdoc1996 @EmmaMAshford Oil is a global commodity, oil being more expensive one place makes it more expensive everywhere, and not only oil is being left behind, fertilizer prices have lead to a ~70% increase in farm bankruptcies.

Amazing quote in this FT piece. American financial elites are so insulated, they don’t believe that physical realities matter for the economy.

@AppoloMaximus @David_Charts2 @NormOrnstein @abramson1234 The 2A does not say that only members of a militia can possess guns; it’s very clear about this. It says that “(because) a well regulated militia is necessary for the security of a free state..” the right of *the people* to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

@David_Charts2 @NormOrnstein @abramson1234 If the right to bear arms “shall not be infringed” what does that say about the right itself? It’s pre-existing and the state shall not constrain it. What part of this don’t you understand?

@RealLittleOne @scotus_wire Kagan and Sotomayor are legal heavyweights who are massively qualified and incredibly intelligent - even if I find their opinions to often be at odds with mine, there’s no question that they’re incredibly intelligent humans. I am sure they are embarrassed by KBJ. She is a moron

@johndoe18411073 I came here specifically to say this. It's fucking *crazy* how the conspiracy theory nuts just turn into Sgt. Schultz when this is going on. They see nothing, they know nothing, the must bark at what their cult leaders tell them to.

And they should be pissed, they just sold the future of this state for a gigantic data center. Every single state leader who has played a role in this should be removed from office, and I mean all the way up to the Legislature and the Gov. Utah's corruption is off the charts.

@DocStrangelove2 Dude used him pulling up his gym shorts as an excuse to kill someone. He got off too. So much "back the blue" bullshit has allowed cops to do whatever they want because they know they won't be prosecuted. A civilian during their weapon in self defense is given way more scrutiny

Reza Pahlavi was questioned by journalists in Europe this week as to why he tried to deny advocating for military action against Iran, and he got so mad that he released an official statement deriding European journalists as agents of Iranian regime censorship.
Reza Pahlavi@PahlaviReza

Whether or not Europe stands with us, whether or not your journalists do their jobs, whether or not your politicians demonstrate the courage to act, I will fight for my people and my country.
