It's wild to me that a DNC political strategist, former Buttiegieg advisor, former Obama campaign director could start a NY Mayor campaign PAC, take $500k from a CATO institute billionaire and somehow Andrew Yang gets blamed for it.

β€œAmericans prefer X, which is why we must use the law to ban anything that isn’t X” is just such a funny thing to come out of someone whose bio says β€œreader of Hayek”. Apparently if Americans’ favorite soda is Coca-Cola, we must use the law to ban Sprite, Pepsi, and Doctor Pepper

Also, people's actions (70% of Americans live in single-family homes) are better than "surveys on lifestyle preferences," but since you want surveys, 75% of Americans prefer small towns, suburbs and rural areas. Only 9% prefer "big cities" (e.g., density). americansurveycenter.org/res…

The court has vastly overextended its own power and flaunted its corruption. It will take a political movement to stop them

A lawyer for the law firm Consovoy McCarthy, which argued both cases to kill affirmative action and to kill student debt cancellation, was just caught sending money to Clarence Thomas's clerk, with memos that make it clear it was for Thomas's birthday theguardian.com/us-news/2023…

This strategy doesn't work with universal basic income. Looking forward to unions finally realizing this fact.

We have a plurality problem, and the only solution is #RankedChoiceVoting
Rank The Vote Kansas (@RankTheVoteKS) profile pictureRank The Vote Kansas@RankTheVoteKS11 Jul 2023
The @GOP could easily solve this dilemma by using #RankedChoiceVoting in their presidential primaries. Do they really want to nominate a losing presidential candidate because one candidate with a >60% unfavorability rating lost in Alaska? #ksleg thehill.com/homenews/campaig…
The image is a text image saying "Ranked choice voting could solve this: 'The problem for DeSantis, Youngkin or any of the other 13 announced candidates is that Trump owns [many] of the first-tier voters and the second tier is split 13 ways,' he said.

New from @MercuryVirginia: This year a #Virginia energy corporation spent $7 million on a slate of candidates... and that's just in the primary. virginiamercury.com/2023/07/…

Even though Clean Virginia-backed candidates saw victories in many cases, other factors besides money played a clear role in some districts.

I’m not allowed to use pictures from committee rooms, so to give you a sense of the experience, I asked A.I. to create an image of β€œa male politician in a committee room holding a can of Monster Energy.” Here’s the glorious image it produced:

One more observation: There was a sideroom in the back of the committee that had snacks and Monster energy drinks and some members of Congress started drinking those Monsters at 10am. Looking back, I should’ve known that was a sign of the kind of β€œdebate” we were about to have.

Seeing or not seeing a movie isn't going to help stop child abuse or exploitation. I recommend donating and supporting organizations like @RAINN instead. They have helped rescue millions of people from abuse. Follow them here on Twitter and visit rainn.org for more info

Republicans cry about student debt while their pals get billions in PPP loans forgiven. They pull the rug out from Black college students on Affirmative Action, but roll out red carpet for legacy admissions. RT if you agree GOP members of Congress are #NotTheBrightest.

Ranked choice voting improves elections by letting voters communicate much richer data about their preferences. That’s good news, not bad, for both Republicans and Democrats in search of high‐​quality candidates. bit.ly/3oPgIYa

Where is the line between β€˜mental health’ and life is hard/bad things happened to me and I need to cope with it/etc.? I worry we medicate/β€˜therapize’ issues that are fixable by other means.
