The cost of your flight went up because you searched for it twice. Your rideshare costs more because your phone battery is dying.
This is surveillance pricing – corporations using your own data and behaviors against you.
In the US Senate, I’ve got a plan to ban it.

Yes, Democrats should run candidates who can actually campaign. The ability to actively campaign should be lowest bar to clear.

Prediction markets will face a massively uphill battle in the court of public opinion to stave off legislation.
Simply put, most people see prediction markets as gambling, not investing, and it’s going to be hard to change that narrative for lawmakers or the general public.

The Political Backlash to Prediction Markets Has Arrived. MLB deal + all that viral fake news on social finally grabbed the attention of the pols... now it's a race to build enough mainstream legitimacy to not get quashed. frontofficesports.com/congress-laws-…

AOC: Just a few years ago, Sam Altman came before congress. In a direct plea, he begged us to regulate this industry. He said that these tools were under no circumstances ready, nor should they be integrated into weapons of war. That we must impose severe regulations immediately to prevent mass layoffs and to ensure that any productivity that comes with this industry can benefit working people. Three short years later, none of that has happened

In new @QuinnipiacPoll, the share of voters who “strongly” disapprove of Trump hits 59% w/indies, 58% w/women & 50% w/all voters. In earlier midterms, voters who strongly disapprove of a president usually vote at 95%+ for the candidates of the party not in the WH.

NEW: It's now more lucrative to have a losing sports team than a championship team.
We examined the Boston Red Sox to see how private equity and cost cutting invaded sports.
In this era, teams want to sell good players for profit more than they want to have a good season.

@JumboHart @WEEIAfternoons 80-82 wins due to bad roster construction — lack of hitting, bullpen regression, a ridiculously overrated pitching staff and injuries.
Breslow and Cora get fired due to season ticket sales being way down, and a bad economy resulting in fewer away fans

SCHIFF: I don't want to hold up the rest of what DHS does, so I've fully supported vote after vote to fund TSA
KERNEN: That's a carve out. It's not a clean bill, which has been business as usual
SCHIFF: Well, business as usual right now is people getting killed in the streets. So I'm not for that business as usual

These Trump economic approval ratings spell absolute disaster for the GOP in 2026. Even in an uber polarized political climate, we could witness a generational GOP wipeout
