I know it’s the dead internet era and these are probably not real people, but watching all the clearly conservative accounts clearly try to make anything related to the Epstein case seem like a nothing burger is still among the more disorienting things I can remember politically. It’s like we’re...

I know this is pretty economically illiterate, but I think we need to go scorched earth on taxation for any residential properties owned by non-residents of that property. If our alternatives are 50-year mortgages and more subprime lending, you’d might as well just rip the band-aid off and let...

What I find funny is the particulars of the H1-B program make opposing them a political slam dunk. While my solutions would be *dramatically* different than MAGA’s, the program should be reformed. I think the combination of restrictions on mobility and low wages make the program predatory in a...

A whole lot of people sharing this are misinterpreting the data, I think. What’s buried in the replies of posts sharing this is that this Math 2 assessment that is supposed to be showing the collapse of aptitude was actually a test the students were told ahead of time would not count toward...

People gave Biden a hard time, but to his credit I never heard him go on national television and say he was going to fix his mess by doubling student loan debt.

22 Democrats voted against the measure, which is 11 times more than the amount of Republicans who did. So this is a weird take?

For many dunking on him, I don’t think the issue is whether or not he’s right. It’s that he and his administration are making a big show of how pro-American and anti-immigrant they are, up until you hit the point that Google might have to pay their coders more. It’s really hard to square the...

Counterpoint: how do you adequately virtue signal to Native Americans or defend democracy if you focus on issues like the President trying to grow the domestic banana industry?

The Dems could probably sweep the midterms by simply posting clips of the President vehemently saying no to the suggestion of there being plenty of talent in the United States. They’ll still manage to fuck it up somehow because that’s what they do, but it’s crazy how he just says so many...

How would lowering tariffs bring down the price if they don’t increase the price?

Thank you to the inaugural DoorDash State of Local Commerce for helping me see that the economy is improving. It’s really quite incredible how we stopped talking about actual statistics and instead are just giving random corporations the opportunity to advertise for free through the White House.

Another fun example of the left not even understanding the most basic economic concepts. Trump didn’t go in and raid the fucking coffers, we just have an enormous deficit. Revenue in is going to be depleted regardless of the actions of the Trump Administration. If anything, Trump is right and...

That’s quite fair, but I think it’s still a bit misleading in terms of what it means. Healthy people carrying inexpensive insurance for the sake of having it in case they need it isn’t nefarious. It is likely inefficient, which is my primary complaint about the current system given how expensive...

https://www.thebulwark.com/p/the-blaze-right-wing-media-pipe-bomb-january-6th?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web Excellent work as always, J6 truthers… My favorite part: How would this strategy even work? Would Kelly convince others to back off then swoop back in later and claim she found new...

Ah yes, the American public might be ready for your great ideas on solving health care and defend against them.

There are good conversations to be had about the efficacy of the ACA, but why would it be inherently better if more Americans had used their health insurance?

I do kind of hope he actually follows through with the $10,000 bonuses though. While I don’t begrudge a single government employee who missed any work due to their pay being withheld, those who worked continuously throughout the shutdown providing necessary government services deserve some...

lol, fuck all the way off.

Good thing pasta isn’t a cheap, filling and durable food that can help poor families struggling with inflation!

Dems get to show a clip of Republicans voting against ACA subsidies? Seems super worthwhile and not at all sad.
