Let's talk about audacity today, specifically the audacity of the nation's largest private prison firm GEO Group, which is preparing to collect a windfall from Trump's election. From wild exec statements to indefensible legal stances, GEO's audacity has reached new levels. 🧵

1. For decades, local grocery stores thrived. Then in the 1980s, the government stopped enforcing a key antitrust law. Rapid consolidation followed, giving rise to food deserts & a price spike. Our new graph shows the dramatic impact of this policy shift. ilsr.org/articles/polic…

Speaking of Black-washing. During WW2, two-thirds of the French army were Africans. When it came time to liberate Paris, the allies handpicked an all White French division to enter Paris first so that French people wouldn't feel humiliated for being liberated by Africans

Politics is not where you convert people over to your worldview. Politics is where you show them where your approach benefits them within how they see the world and themselves.

When voters like me say, "I'm voting for my daughter's freedom," we're not thinking of abortion rights, exactly. We are thinking of the lust to control that we see burning in the eyes of some men. We are voting to protect our daughters and granddaughters from THAT.

Ending income tax and replacing it with giving everyone a $4000 yearly tax through tariffs would create the biggest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in the modern era and would obliterate the economy

Here's a timeline: In 1983, Larry Hogan Sr. and his wife, Ilona, bought a bucolic 10-acre property in Frederick for $230,000. The spacious colonial with columns on the front porch, nestled in the woods, was also where they based their law practice (1/8) time.com/7094238/larry-…

Obviously, I'm somewhat biased, but there have been numerous instances over the past four years of the Biden Administration getting hard things done and fixing problems quickly and efficiently with almost no credit. This is the latest example.

Okay, let's talk about this ridiculous talking point that some conservative men love to use, subsequently betraying their complete ignorance on our military draft. Claiming the draft is to men like abortion is to women is ludicrous for three big reasons. (thread)

This is a core problem in modern economies, and it's paradoxically worse the better the economy is — the richer and more productive we get, the higher the value of human labor, and in turn the more expensive labor intensive services get. There is a solution: the welfare state.

Went to Uniqlo and bought five of the same t-shirt and three pairs of those not-quite-cargo pants and I’m just going to wear them on rotation because I’m tired of thinking about what to wear. I’m implementing an adult school uniform for myself.

How does having more police on the subway make us safer when cops shoot 4 people (including a cop) trying to stop someone who jumped the turnstile? And the alleged farebeater wasn't "wielding" a knife. The cops found it in his pocket. nydailynews.com/2024/09/15/nyp…

This is wild. Indiana law enforcement is seizing millions of dollars by rummaging through packages at the local FedEx hub & taking the money they find—without saying what crime the sender or recipient supposedly committed. The scheme may violate Indiana's *own laws.* A thread.
