Run the government like a business...
Businesses debt finance when the return is good. Roads, education, public health, childcare... So much government spending creates net value at an ROI that would be the envy of any business.
Why can't Dems say that?

I like them...
When they list App State.

Reading this my takeaway is that they want the same gaslight populism the right has with a different flavor.

I've since learned kids drew the logos.
Not now all I can think about is Maddox.

Eugenics jokes are probably not in good taste considering that's how RFK wants to deal with chronic disease.

I'd actually be okay with only honoring non-transfers.
I totally respect an athlete's right to transfer, but to act like a four year player and a one year player have made the same comment and deserve the same honor is crazy.

It truly can't be overstated how much he fucked the American people. He's hoping a few strong words and a few no votes help shield his legacy. It won't.

Richest man in the world is fucking up all our lives just so he can be richer... Or worse this whole thing is a power grab.

Corporate interests sadly might be our only check here. Unless the USDA pulls approvals insurance companies still have a vested interest in vaccinations.

You can't be the victim and be a bully. You can't be oppressed and hold a monopoly on violence. But that's exactly what maga is trying to do.

On the other side is the bully complex. The United States won the game so every maga account, in between their victimhood, is celebrating saying, "fuck around and find out".

This totally ignores the fact that we're the aggressor here. Breaking treaties to apply tariffs. Threatening Canada with annexation.
But Canada responds appropriately and now Maga gets to be the victim.

And Democrats should leave Twitter. Why are you funding your own opposition?
comment in response to
post
And they don't want the government funding these self owns? Like they cast the media as the enemy but corporate media's unwillingness or inability to report on this shit is helping Trump and Musk.

Unless they're unpaid athletes. I bet the farm all these SEC and B10 AD's are lobbying Congress and the Trump admin to help find a way to keep all their TV money.

Are we sure this isn't what Elon and gang want? Force everyone out and run a muck? I want Democrats doing more but I'm not sure this is leverage.

Good read.
I'm not sold recruiting was an issue though. Ratings aren't perfect but there is a correlation between them and success. And Clark's were better.
Now talent development on the other hand... Almost all our best players that Clark recruited were transfers.

I don't think you can use Musk and altruism in the same sentence.

I can't believe I was so brainwashed I thought I voted for her.
Can they brainwash me into thinking I'm not consumed by existential dread.

That's funny. I called his office today and the staffer that answer told me they weren't sure what was going on with Elon. Tillis obviously knows enough to know it's illegal.

Lack of urgency by Democratic leadership is astounding. Everyone of their constituents need to mobilize and let them feel unsafe in their seats. They think they can wait it out. They can't.
comment in response to

Corporate media has failed us so badly. Shouldn't be a surprise. But they have.
comment in response to
post
Why? Because right now Tillis and Budd believe the political cost of submission is less then the political cost of resistance. If enough people act that calculus changes and maybe they'll do the right thing.

Prices are about to go up under Trump because he's a dick. Tariffs will do little to nothing to bring jobs back without government investment that he's freezing and they're a regressive tax designed to hit lower income families with the tax burden. And Trump is doing this on purpose.

There's definitely some nuance if you want to have any chance of reaching them. I'd like to think they are such a small minority that we can call a racist a racist and shun them until they reform but sadly that doesn't seem possible.
comment in response to
post
That being said I understand the challenge of calling out friends and family to this truth. It shuts down discourse and forces them into their echo chamber where they can feel good about their choices or even better feel like the victim.
comment in response to
post
I think we give racist cover by defining racism by how they feel about other races and not the impact of the policies they support. That's been a failure of discourse. If you support racist structures (political, economical, social) you're a racist.

So you talked to a racist?
