The bugs in the code don't concern me that much. The extended family of raccoons living in there do.

Mueller was destructive and vindictive. He ruined people for a living. He was a terrible person and responsible for one of the worst manipulations of US intelligence in history - and he did it with full knowledge that he was lying.

@SteveSample22 @sammyhagar Oh, bullshit. Truth is, we’ve made the first wrung of the ladder increasingly difficult to climb and easy to fall from, all so a few can gain massive fortunes and massive power. “Priorities” imply it’s this or that. It’s not.

@sammyhagar Great story. We can give thousands of dollars to illegal aliens, but can't help men like this and homeless vets. Something very wrong with many of our so-called leaders priorities!!!🙏

what a beautiful, unique soulful experience late last night with this homeless man in Las Vegas. he called my name as I walked by. I was surprised so I stopped to say hello and help him out with a little cash. He told me a story how he was at the launch of the #vanhalen #1995 balance Tour in #pensacolaflorida he told me what I was wearing that night, things I said. Remembered #jonstewart introducing us. this man was intelligent, kind, spiritual, and elegant. We talked for a while, and it was enlightening for me to realize how many people like him, families, etc., that have become #homeless I can see it. I just don't know what to do about it.

@thetruthhurtz8 @ettingermentum Damn, the relationship between your tirade and reality is remarkably tenuous. Was inflation high? Yes. That’s likely the case when you’re steering out of a pandemic. Recoveries are like that. Highest crime? Are you serious?

Instead of standing with law enforcement and victims, Soros-backed DAs in Texas are spending more time attacking the very officers who keep our communities safe. As Attorney General, I’ll back law enforcement and use every legal tool available to hold rogue prosecutors accountable and work to remove those who endanger Texans and our communities.

@JohnCornyn Voter suppression by any other name would still smell so foul. But, seriously, are you still trying to “out despicable” the AG? That certainly says a lot about the support you seek. Vile.

These tactics are nothing more than fearmongering by Dems who are objecting to this because they want to make it easier for people to cheat.   In a country with citizens bright enough to put a man on the moon and to build the strongest, most powerful military & the greatest economy the world has ever known, Americans are smart enough and capable enough to be able to locate their driver's license when they cast a ballot and to establish their citizenship in order to qualify to vote. Any suggestion to the contrary is ridiculous. 🇺🇸

If you listen to Senator Schumer and the Democrats, you would believe the American people are dumb or incompetent- they are neither.   Democrats also think that noncitizens should be allowed to vote and that election fraudsters shouldn’t have to prove their identity.    On the behalf of the 32 million Texans I represent, I find these arguments deeply offensive. 🧵

@brianeharrison @POTUS Why don’t you just go away? Or raid libraries. Or get all concerned that some college course may discuss an idea that makes you uncomfortable. There are other suggestions I could think of making, but not here, not now.

Hey, @POTUS: did you know that JAMES TALARICO was aided in his rise to the Democrat Senate nomination by the "Republican" Speaker of the Texas House, Dustin Burrows?? TALARICO was a core part of the DEMOCRAT coalition that helped elect Burrows as Speaker... Burrows then rewarded Talarico by putting him in House leadership, appointing him to TWO powerful Vice Chairmanships, and giving him more tax money for his operations. cc: @AlMeyer19 @SusieWiles @mbrasseaux11 @DanScavino @PressSec @NRSC @NRCC @RNCResearch @SenateGOP @HouseGOP @GOP @realDonaldTrump @JDVance @VP
Brian Harrison@brianeharrison

🚨 I am demanding Speaker Burrows remove James Talarico from the House leadership positions he (indefensibly) appointed him to. Voters elected Republicans to lead the Texas House... not radical Democrats! Full letter: Speaker Burrows, Shocking statements and videos of Representative James Talarico have made national headlines, including him declaring there are “six genders,” asserting that God is “non-binary,” and using the Biblical narrative of Joseph and Mary to justify elective abortions. While his holding these liberal positions is shocking to Americans newly acclimated with him, you have been well aware for years that he holds these extremist positions and that he has pushed to legislatively enact them, such as his efforts to force public schools to teach DEI and hire DEI officers at taxpayer expense. Many of his radical statements were made prior to the start of the 89th legislative session, when Rep. Talarico helped elect you as Speaker. Indefensibly, you rewarded Rep. Talarico by appointing him to multiple positions in House leadership: making him Vice Chair of the Committee on Trade, Workforce, and Economic Development and Vice Chair of the Public Education Subcommittee on Academic and Career Oriented Education (especially indefensible given his leftist views on education). With these Vice Chairmanships, he has significant power to shape upcoming interim hearings, and he receives additional taxpayer funds to spend at his discretion. By placing Rep. Talarico in House leadership, you gave him a platform that aided his rise to national prominence and helped lead him to the Democrat nomination for the U.S. Senate. While these appointments were inappropriate at the time, they are untenable now. Conservative leaders across America are rightfully rebuking Rep. Talarico’s extremist views, but, as Speaker, you are uniquely able to take action. On behalf of my constituents and the millions of voters who gave Republicans the majority in the Texas House, please consider this to be my formal request that Rep. Talarico be stripped of his Vice Chairmanships and removed from the Education Committee. Immediately. If you believe it’s not within your power under the House Rules to do this, then I ask you stand up select committees with the same jurisdiction and membership (but without Rep. Talarico) where you’ll send all interim charges and official responsibilities for the remainder of the 89th session. We’re in a battle for the future of Texas and America. It’s past time that the Texas House acts like it. For liberty, Brian Harrison

@seobrien @aakashgupta Judging from many of the comments, it's pretty clear why we can't have nice things. Could it be because we learn nothing? Because short-term thinking means we take a a landscape, bulldoze it flat and then name it after whatever nice thing used to be there?

Paul O'Brien@seobrien·
Among the many decisions builders make, ripping out trees is one that makes me feel what hatred feels like. Thank you for sharing this @aakashgupta
Aakash Gupta@aakashgupta

Let me explain exactly why every new subdivision in America looks like the top photo, because the math is wild. A mature tree increases a home's value by 7 to 19 percent. On a $400,000 house, that's $28,000 to $76,000. A single shade tree produces the cooling equivalent of ten room-size air conditioners running 20 hours a day. One tree on the west side of a house cuts energy bills by 12 percent within 15 years. The bottom photo is worth more, costs less to live in, and sells faster. This has been documented by the University of Washington, Clemson, Michigan State, and the USDA. The data is not in dispute. Removing those trees saves the builder roughly $5,000 per lot. Concrete trucks need twice the dripline radius of every standing tree. Utility trenches need flat ground. A bulldozer flattens 200 lots in an afternoon. Preserving trees adds weeks and thousands per home. So the developer pockets $5,000 in savings and the buyer eats $50,000 in lost value for the next two decades. The person making the decision and the person paying for it have never been in the same room. The Woodlands, Texas is the proof of what happens when they are. George Mitchell bought 28,000 acres of Houston timberland in 1974 and preserved 28% as permanent green space. He forced McDonald's to build behind the tree canopy. That McDonald's became one of the highest-volume locations in Texas. The first office building, designed to reflect the surrounding forest so you couldn't see it from the street, leased completely. The Woodlands median home price today: $615,000. Katy, a comparable Houston suburb that clear-cut: $375,000. Named #1 community to live in America two years running. Fifty years of data. The trees are worth more than removing them saves. Developers clear-cut anyway because they sell the house once and leave. You live in it for 30 years.

@TheStalwart @matthewstoller Well, of course it is. The level of risk has risen. In an inelastic market that’s a lot of the price. This is also why I conjecture that Trump policy is all about “keeping fossil fuel production lucrative”, particularly in a slowing global economy. (Kill a renewable for …..)

Here's an updated look at the oil futures curve today vs. 1 month ago. You can see it's just a massive structural change. Even Brent for delivery in 2029 is way more expensive than it was

@JustinWolfers Y'know, the difference between the 'seventies and recent times is that there aren't as large a number of workers who get meaningful cost-of-living adjustments. So you don't get the same kind of re-pricing spiral. But it just gets harder for more people. And rate cuts don't work.
