@LauraFriedmanCA now I'm really screwed trying to get my 25 year IDR corrected back to 25 years of repayment, along with the correct repayment start in 2000, NOT 2002

DSA LA decided NOT to reopen their endorsement window for mayor of Los Angeles following a debate. That means nether Nithya Raman nor Rae Huang will get the group’s backing for the June primary — which comes with canvassers and phone bankers. Vote needed 2/3 majority, got ~54%.

In a scenario where the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, "that means $250-$300 price of oil (Brent)" argues @Rory_Johnston. Because a giant price shock is needed to destroy 15 million barrels per day of demand $220+ "almost guaranteed." shorturl.at/ZurCL

How it feels watching the Iran War, Hormuz stoppage, and the still-so-sanguine global market reaction as the world economy just rolls into calamity.

@IsraelMFA 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀

The Iranian regime devastated Arad and Dimona by deliberately striking civilians with missiles. Over 100 people were injured, including children. A blatant war crime. Pure terrorism.

@tparsi Netanyahu doesn't do off-ramps

Trump just threatened to bomb all of Iran's power plants if Iran doesn't open the Straits within 48h. We know Iran will not comply with this threat. If Trump follows through on his threats, Tehran will likely strike at energy facilities throughout the Persian Gulf as well as in Israel. By now, it is really foolish to think it won't. An already bad situation will worsen with rising oil and gas prices, higher grocery costs in the US, and the closure of most remaining exit ramps. Escalation only intensifies the lose-lose scenario. Both sides need to get serious about off-ramps. Neither side should seek the humiliation of the other. Neither side can force the other's surrender. Both have to be able to construct a convincing narrative of victory for their own audiences. They may not realize it yet, but both the US and Iran ultimately have a common interest in such an exit.

JUST IN: $240,000,000 liquidated from the crypto market in the past 15 minutes.

when you see this, what is the first thing you think of

$7.49 for diesel in Southern California

@WhiteHouse STFU Donny

NO MORE WAITING, NO MORE GAMES!

@TheSassanid @latimes corruption

@latimes I’m down for them to fix the pool and get it back open (NYC has tons of city public pools) but why does everything have to cost so insanely much and why does it take ages to finish anything in CA?

Oil prices could reach record highs, analysts warn. Here's what it could mean for the U.S. economy. cbsn.ws/4bqr1I4

@CAgovernor @JenSiebelNewsom everything but a LIVING WAGE paying job 🖕🏻

Starting in the 2027-28 school year, California will offer a new personal finance course to high schoolers and require it for graduation beginning with the 2031 class. Every Californian should leave high school with the tools to manage money, avoid debt, and build wealth.

@StephenM liar 🖕🏻

Democrats defunded the United States Coast Guard.

BREAKING: Bitcoin collapses below $68,000 after President Trump threatens to "obliterate" Iran's power plants. Just 24 hours ago, President Trump said he was considering "winding down" the Iran War.

@Fievel131 @DeanBaker13 @Acyn don't forget her "special" advisor Lewandowski in their fraud scheme

Ron Johnson: I'll want to scrutinize why they need $200 billion and from my standpoint… the estimate is somewhere between 700 billion to a trillion dollars of fraud per year, we ought to be able to enact programs to eliminate that fraud and pay for the 200 billion.

Miller: At the beginning of this administration, we asked every state, red and blue, to share with us, their voter rolls. Every blue state refused.

@WhiteHouse after a call with Netanyahu describing the Epstein pp tape he has of Trump with underage girls

@HenryForLA @marvistavoice

It is absurd that the objections of a few homeowners are enough to create massive delays and cost increases for infrastructure projects. We need public transit and the studies show the K Line won't be a problem, the Metro Board should just approve the DEIR Alignment!

This is self-parody: the U.S. bombs Iran relentlessly for weeks, kills most of the country's top leadership, and sinks an Iranian ship off the coast of Sri Lanka, but when Iran fruitlessly fires two missiles at a U.S. base, it gets described as "serious escalation."
