Modern college athletics rests on a set of regressive transfers. The pandemic is revealing this corrupt bargain by forcing shools to cancel money losing sports, slow new building, and reduce salaries. We demonstrate these dynamics in a new paper (1/6)

Let's be blunt. @SenBillCassidy voted to make America less healthy. RFK Jr. has a shocking disrespect for the science related to vaccines and pharma. He also has very little understanding of the health insurance programs HHS administers. There is no upside here.
With Bill Cassidy's support, RFK Jr. is likely head to the top health care role in Trump's administration:

This is just letting RFK off the hook. The data are already there. This isn’t a conditional statement. RFK has spent years actively casting doubt … it frankly doesn’t matter what he says now when he’s on the precipice of power.
Sen. Cassidy asks RFK whether he will reassure parents that MMR vaccines are not associated with Autism, if the data is there (which he says has been there for years.) RFK says he will apologize if the data shows he's wrong. Then adds "we should always follow the evidence"

We’re seeing effect of inexperienced movement conservatives who grew up with a shibboleth that “government in total is bad,” now realizing how much federal funding hits daily life. It’s easy to see how we got here when some believe it’s only “others” who benefit from government.
I’ve spoken to senior officials at the White House and confirmed the temporary pause by OMB does not impact individual assistance and will not interrupt disaster recovery efforts, school and childcare funding, healthcare for seniors or low-income families, funding for our roads, meals and lunches, or any of the other misinformation that has spread. The partisan stunt to disseminate knowingly misleading information is dangerous fearmongering and completely wrong. President Trump is doing what an executive should do at the beginning of a term, which is find out where the money is and where it’s going, not unlike what we did at the beginning of our term here in Virginia when we identified $1.4 billion in appropriated but unspent taxpayer money.

@petersuderman They also use a lot of cultural shibboleths that resonate with the in-group they are courting. Nicole Kidman in Lioness casually referencing the ease of bringing an 8 ball into the Oval Office as an example.

What if we developed a system where customers could buy a package of channels together for a single price that was less than the sum of the channels’ individual prices? What could we call it …
New: Disney will combine its Hulu + Live TV business with Fubo and become 70% majority owner of the resulting company.

@CPopeHC Ok - Here is a version with basically ten year intervals. I say basically as I used 2022 at the end to avoid COVID years, which seems like an abberation from the trend.

@ttaaggooee The old proverb … your mileage may vary comes out strong here … lots of people don’t appreciate being pushed in class. A lot of “I prefer ‘what an interesting answer’ energy” …

If you needed more evidence that vaccines don't cause autism ... this post should quell any remaining doubts.
I fully believe vaccines cause Autism. It’s another example of crimes against humanity. And innocent babies, children, and their families are the victims.

We can get to coaches sharing their excess rents with players in a few ways. @okstate made Mike Gundy do it. @LSUfootball apparently got Brian Kelly to "volunteer" to do it.
Brian Kelly and his wife, Paqui, are kicking off the Kelly Family Million Dollar Match Challenge! They will match donations to LSU's Football NIL efforts - up to $1 million - with a gift to the Tiger Athletic Foundation’s AD’s Excellence Fund.

If you read all the way to the end, you find this simply ridiculous justification by the head of research for ICER.
