Forcing kids to lock their phones away during the school day at first makes them sadder, then quite a bit happier

@greendragonhq Did you dive into other data? Differences in demographics, socioeconomic disparities, just consider the ways the states operate? Florida’s reliance on tourism means its economy is way different than New York’s. I don’t think this is an issue of politics.

🚨 LMAO! GOV. RON DESANTIS says it PERFECTLY: "I have a cheat code here." "All I got to do is look to New York, Illinois, California, Washington State, and then just do the OPPOSITE of what they're doing." 🤣 "And that works out very, very well!" "Florida has been one of the places, of course, for refuge. I think we've had more adjusted gross income I've moved into the state of Florida since I've been governor that has ever moved into any state in America and the history of the country, even adjusted for inflation."

@Buster_ESPN We’d have more of this if you hadn’t pushed so hard for nets down foul lines. Those rare terrible instances now takeaway an endless amount of lifetime memories that are priceless. Was it worth it?

@bstoper2318 But I voted for the good: illegal immigration gone, crime greatly reduced, inflation pre-Iran was down (check the numbers), smaller government (DOGE), tax cut/refund was great. Foreign policy Iran hate, support Israel, Ukraine don’t care just don’t spend money.

@Swinertonb Trump legit had no plan for anything. All he campaigned on was that Harris would destroy the country. Reality is he is. Tariffs, iran war, inflation up, poor job market, debt thru the roof, didnt end ukraine/russia war like he claimed, groceries prices still high, disaster

@bstoper2318 I’ll concede Trump wrong doings this term: job market has been lackluster, I’m anti Iran War, very cautious about trade wars and tariffs. I’m not an economist so I don’t know all the ins and outs. Also frustrated with DHS funding.

@bstoper2318 Did 2021-25 not provide enough evidence of that? She was the VP and the country was a disaster. Record inflation, record illegal immigration, Ukraine War, their administration accomplished nothing.

@dandakich @amyklobuchar Funnier because our open enrollment for next year at my employer literally has no increase in healthcare cost. So who is being honest about healthcare cost?

However dumb you think the process for destroying USAID was, it was dumber. This is from Nicholas Enrich's new book Into the Wood Chipper, describing a meeting with Trump-appointed USAID leadership *after* they had largely gutted the agency

@TimH_B @DKThomp I have yet to hear an argument why the US government has to make the world better when it’s inherent function is to do many immoral functions. Taking people’s money without consent (taxes), waging war, criminal justice, freedom of thought/hate, etc. Why the double standard?

@theadaptable1 @DKThomp Maybe we shouldn’t have done Covid lockdowns? Wouldn’t have caused spikes in labor increase post Covid. But Derek won’t critique because it was largely supported by Democrats. Derek has reported many issues post Covid but won’t critique but is quick to critique Trump policies.

Great ep. Most important takeaway IMO is the cost of U.S. energy is mostly due to higher costs of parts (tariffs) and labor (wage increase post COVID) rather than “the price of my electricity is rising because of AI data centers. Ban AI data centers!”
