It's pretty wild, when you think about it, that the political press spent four years saying "Biden's real test: will Americans approve of his economy?" and then Trump's been president for three months and he's brutally murdering the economy and the political press is just not that focused on it

I'm sorry I know there's a lot going on but how are we not screaming about Ron DeSantis stealing $10 million from Medicaid and the money ending up with pro-DeSantis superPACs, funneled through a charity run by his wife? HOW IS THIS NOT NATIONAL NEWS? www.miamiherald.com/news/politic...

Allowing this at any government property—especially a courthouse—is astonishingly dangerous. It is how people get killed. It's sadly too much to hope everyone involved is fired. At a minimum, every courthouse needs to revamp its policies to ensure nothing like this can happen there.

Cannot be stated enough that Donald Trump sued “60 Minutes” based on the false claim that they didn’t publish a problematic answer Kamala Harris gave to a question about Israel. Of course, the truth is they DID publish the answer and the answer was also totally fine. Textbook frivolous lawsuit.

"While submission in the face of Trump’s threats and corrupt inducements proved to be infectious in civil society and other private sector contexts, Harvard’s resolute resistance has had the opposite impact. His choice of a powerful target is clearly backfiring."

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.” He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.” Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up. Marriott still has my business.

The reason billionaires like McMahon are obsessed with student debt is that creating financial precarity makes people more stressed about losing their job. If you’re worried about your job you’re less likely to quit and find work elsewhere. You’re less likely to ask for a raise. It’s pure class war.

Exactly how Systrom described it to me for years. He tried to be a team player early on & make the best of it publicly, but the bloom was off that deal quickly, largely because of Zuckerberg’s petty behavior. He utterly lacks creativity and is envious of those who do. Aggression is his talent.
