Rubio Today: It’s false to say I said the U.S. had to attack because Israel was going to attack. That’s not what I said.
Rubio Yesterday: We knew Israel was going to strike Iran, and that would trigger attacks on U.S. forces. If we didn’t act first, Americans would suffer higher casualties.
The richest man owns X.
The second and third richest men control Google.
The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.
And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.
See the problem here?

What problem is Trump's new global 10% tariff meant to solve?
If it's about leverage, ask: How much leverage do you get from a tariff that disappears in 150 days?
If it's onshoring: Who builds new factories based on tariff that disappear before the factory is built?
It's a tax. That's all it is.
Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States.

Friends, I have created a Starter Pack of economics journals (and working paper series) active on Bluesky. Hope this is useful for academic, policy, and industry economists alike. #Econsky Please let me know if there are any that I missed!
Trump's big, ugly budget megabill gives ICE more agents than the FBI, more jails than the federal Bureau of Prisons, and a larger budget than most countries' militaries.
It does this by stripping food away from children, the disabled, and the working poor.
Not one more penny.
Not only is this what you would do if you were trying to kill a technology and a company developing it ….
it's what you would do if you were trying to kill *people*.
It’s the Epstein Administration.
No wonder Bondi spent the entire hearing screeching and deflecting.

This episode has been a nightmare for my city and state, but I hope people realize it’s also a profound defeat and political catastrophe for Trump and DHS, who are slinking away having accomplished nothing. Minneapolis simply wouldn’t bend to them and they lost
Some children in Dilley were so distraught they cut themselves or talked about suicide, parents told ProPublica.
They said kids lost their appetites after finding worms and mold on their food, had trouble sleeping, and were constantly sick.
You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.
This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.
One day I would like to read the biography of these characters and understand what made them grow into such soulless ghouls

What's a little child rape? Look at the Dow, Raskin!
Rep. Raskin: "Releasing the names of a lot of victims is either spectacular incompetence and sloppiness on [DOJ's] part or, as a lot of the survivors believe, a deliberate threat to other survivors who are thinking about coming forward."
The stupid one...
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Alberto Castañeda Mondragón says his memory was so jumbled after a beating by immigration officers that he initially could not remember he had a daughter and still struggles to recall treasured moments like the night he taught her to dance. But the violence he endured last month in Minnesota while being detained is seared into his battered brain. He remembers Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents pulling him from a friend’s car on Jan. 8 outside a St. Paul shopping center and throwing him to the ground, handcuffing him, then punching him and striking his head with a steel baton. He remembers being dragged into an SUV and taken to a detention facility, where he said he was beaten again. He also remembers the emergency room and the intense pain from eight skull fractures and five life-threatening brain hemorrhages.
ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”
What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.
We gotta come up with a better system than “everything rests on whether these twelve billionnaires are nice”
Sorry, but most Third World countries are not that bad. Keep us out of this.
this is, i suppose, one way to address a woman, when given the opportunity to show empathy towards abused women
"mr trump do you have anything to say to epstein surivors"
"how about you shut the fuck up and smile more, you terrible woman"
Pamela Jo Bondi is protecting pedophiles. She is disgusting and needs to be investigated.
