Trump, Vance & others either have forgotten or never knew that Zelensky signed a ceasefire agreement with Putin in 2019. Three years later, Putin launched his full-scale invasion. So, signing another ceasefire with no security guarantees feels like suicide for Ukrainians.

There needs to be limits to everything, even free speech. And a big difference between private companies TOS and state actors on where the limits are. You might look at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_o…

It was wrong to believe that 'saving the economy' was an alternative to 'saving people's lives’. If anything it is the other way around and the two goals go together so that countries that kept the health impact of the pandemic lower suffered smaller economic consequences.

Imagine if during World War 2, a group of assholes kept turning on their lights during a mandatory city blackout in the name of "freedom" and Axis planes found the city and bombed 350,000 people to death. That's anti-maskers today.

The federal budget deficit was $587 billion in 2016. It is over $3.1 trillion today. And Republicans have the nerve to pretend to care about the deficit now that you need money to survive.

If Republicans are suddenly so concerned about government spending after their years of corrupt giveaways, I have a great solution for them. Let’s repeal the $2 TRILLION GOP tax scam from ‘17 to pay for a whole slew of proposals that actually help working people. Done ✅

Obituary for 81-year-old who died from COVID is also a tell-off to anti-maskers, who deserve every bit of it. (Article: kansascity.com/news/local/art…)

1/ “Human Ascent” tourism. We need a global pilgrimage tour of places where amazing humans took yet another step to elevate humans from being animals to being civilized. Why not start in Königsberg with Euler & graph theory? mathsection.com/taking-a-walk-…

This @nytopinion editorial is a huge deal—a refutation of the debunked trickle-down dependence on tax cuts and an embrace of the theory of growth I've been promoting for years: Raise America's wages now. nytimes.com/2020/11/28/opi…

Even worse: We spent TRILLION on weapons against people on Mars but can't mobilize/accelerate deployment of testing/vaccination at a Yuuuuuuge cost of economic output. Governments (over)spend money in the wrong places.
