"Inflation skyrockets to 32 percent!!!" Actually looks at it Dropped to 32 percent from 290 percent.



We are spending at least $500 million a day to bomb Iran. Imagine how many teachers we could hire, how many public housing units we could build, how many bridges and roads we could fix, if we spent that kind of money on improving life for working people?


Hey @nytimes, can you let me know why you are giving a guy who said I should be murdered such a glowing platform? Would love to know your standards.... nytimes.com/2025/04/27/sty…



This message is wrong. It's deeply unimaginative. It's dangerous. It's destabilizing. It's going to get people killed. It scares regular people for no reason and mobilizes them against AI. It needs to stop.



Requiring economics for all college majors is a great idea. @SamuelAbramsAEI argues persuasively in the @WSJ that young people enamored with socialism should learn undergrad economics (and statistics) so they can at least understand how capitalism works and why, and make their case from knowledge and not ignorance. I've also heard colleagues make analogous arguments that right-leaning students benefit from learning about market failures (and deadweight loss, gains from trade, etc.) in undergrad econ classes, to sharpen their arguments. Yes to all of it, I say! Basic economics (and quantitative reasoning) is essential to understanding all of our major policy debates and tradeoffs. Making it a core part of liberal/civics education seems like a good idea.




What exactly is the argument against a pied-a-terre tax for second (or third / fourth / fifth) homes worth more than $5 million owned by people who do not even live in the city? It just seems like such a glaringly obvious common-sense policy.



@jamesetta_w Another thing... in the year prior. Bernie suffers a mild heart attack and immediately the discouse is how HE MUST DROP OUT. MSNBC guests start to go Fox News on him faking his medical history...


“International audiences lower the bar even further; only about half of Hasan’s audience is American. Ezra Klein is ready to embrace Piker as an important voice within the Democratic coalition based on his popular appeal, but a significant fraction of that appeal is to audiences who can’t even vote in American elections.”



Psaki: Patel's advisor said a lawsuit is being filed. Fitzpatrick: I stand by every word of this reporting. We have excellent attorneys.
