"I understand the federalist argument for protecting the interests of individual states. But I think the presidency should reflect the will of the people, not the geographic distribution of their votes." agentmule.substack.com/p/con…

French trade unions are joining forces on Thursday for nationwide strikes and demonstrations for higher wages and in support of the high school protest movement, piling new pressure on President Macron's government.

This is what all the State Legislatures are looking like. Dems now have the power to pass the National Voter Compact to effectively abolish the Electoral College.

A truly disgraceful public official. A blatant racist and dishonest appeal
Vance: I saw a story that there are illegal communities of illegal immigrant Somalis who are coordinating to flood the polls and drown out your vote. We want American elections to belong to American citizens. Send a message by voting for Vivek for governor.

When En Vogue hit SNL in March 1992, they dismantled the myth that girl groups couldn’t sing full-throttle live in heels. Trading leads across Cindy, Dawn, Terry, and Maxine, their dynamic control remained untouchable—from Dawn’s raspy rock bite to Terry’s operatic belts. When they converged on the hook, their four-part harmonies locked in with their blend and zero backing tape. The album dropped 3 days later, proving to themselves and to the world just how Funky, these Divas really are.

The world once again overwhelmingly rejects the US blockade of Cuba. Washington's agents boast that they coerced a few more weak states to support the criminal siege. msn.com/en-us/news/other/des…

Imagine how many seats Palestinian parties would have if all Palestinians were allowed to vote, not 19 but 60! But Israel neither allows them to all vote or to have independence. Because it wants their land but also wants Jews to dominate the system of politics. This is Apartheid.

"Nothing of this scale has been seen in the United States, experts say, since the federal government’s counterinsurgency against the New Left and the anti-war movement in the 1960s and 1970s." Incredible reporting here from @awinston wired.com/story/ice-is-runni…

A lot of people ask about my new life-coaching practice. Practicing Radical Amazement, Inc. is inspired by Jewish philosopher Abraham Heschel's emphasis on resisting the assumption that the world is self-evident and recovering our capacity to wonder.

I've been trying to do this for the past ten years. It's quite simple: home prices are unaffordable thanks to the financing structure put in place to make them affordable almost a century ago: the amortized mortgage. "Homebuyers" are not the actual purchasers, capital is.
Can someone explain why supply-demand hasn’t lowered home prices?
