@CutBackDavis69 @mattyglesias The government telling me I can't build a house on land I own unless I reserve 300+ sq ft for a vehicle I may not have: cool, based, extremely chill The government telling me I don't have to do that unless I want to: social engineering, literal communism

@BrownBrandon503 @briebriejoy He works in the government. It’s literally our business. I would like to know whether the people who apparently have the power to turn off any government payments they dislike are unrepentant bigots.

The idea that Deep Research could replace real humans is asinine. Congrats, it can do an internet keyword search without understanding any context. For serious work you need real domain expertise. Now to take a big sip of water and check in on the geniuses auditing Treasury….

@jerelyt @ThomasLofton6 @Acyn Is it your view that Big Pharma exercises influence by having individuals who happen to work in pharma companies, let’s say in R&D, or marketing, go on to Act Blue and give small dollar donations to Elizabeth Warren?

@OsitaNwanevu Do you think this prediction has been borne out? If not, why not? "Cultural antagonism on the right will continue to drive middle-of-the-road Americans away, and progressive millennials and Gen-Zers will continue aging into the center of American politics and American life."

@GStanley71 @RollingPrez2390 @keithdorejel Yes if only we’d done let’s say a child tax credit, a massive green energy investment, pro-labor policy across the administration, and widespread student debt cancellation, people would have flocked to the Democratic Party.

@keithdorejel @JakeWallinger What work is “Obama era” supposed to do in this argument, other than remind people that they worked for the most popular politician of this century?

@goodforharriers @PedanticKilljoy @realchrisrufo @wanyeburkett “Total federal government outlays during pandemic”: ground truth that the American everyman knows instinctively. $5.2 trillion, a number bandied about at bars, auto shops “How much families earn, adjusted for inflation”: mystical number mattering only to pinheaded coastal elites

@goodforharriers @PedanticKilljoy @realchrisrufo @wanyeburkett Also do you have an “on the ground” source to show me that the government “printed 30% of its growth”? Remember you’re not allowed to use graphs. I don’t make the rules.
