@jimsciutto Totally agree. As the kids might say, "Slay!" Or "You ate and left no crumbs!"

@walterkirn @realDonaldTrump It's federal land. Newsom has no control over it

[David Kurapka @DKurapka]

@5149jamesli While I am sympathetic to keeping the farmers there, this is not Newsom's doing. It's federal land, and it was the Department of Interior and the National Park Service (over several administrations).

@EricLDaugh The correct term is "full staff." Full or Half "Mast" is for flags on naval vessels, which originally had masts.

@elonmusk Actually, climate change is having an impact much more rapidly than scientists once predicted. Two things can be true, however, that climate change has worsened the problem, but inept governance has also.

@EdKrassen To have this as your starting point for negotiations is bonkers. Even if an agreement ended up here it would be a failure. The starting point needs to be Ukraine JOINS Nato in exchange for giving up territory.

@kausmickey It's a lagging indicator. They are looking at forward indicators, and presumably have a good sense of where the jobs market is going and don't need the employment # to confirm where it's been

@connor_echols It seems like you can go back farther than that, to the Paleocene Eocene Thermal Maximum? 120K years is a geologic blip, and there have been many periods of higher CO2 in the atmosphere and hotter temps, right?

[David Kurapka @DKurapka]

@JRubinBlogger @VP Exactly. Also, all these names tossed around -- Whitmer, Moore, Shapiro, etc -- are great people, but have not been tested on the national stage. We don't know how they would fare under the spotlight

[David Kurapka @DKurapka]

@kausmickey Also, strengthening and expanding NATO to combat the greatest threat to Europe (and therefore the US) since WWII is nothing to sneeze at

[David Kurapka @DKurapka]

@kausmickey To be fair, doesn't every president say something like that? Certainly Trump did. But he also passed infrastructure (finally), got some modest gun control, but most important, passed the strongest commitment to combat climate change. Certainly a better record than Trump

@maklelan @data_over_dogma This was, as usual, a great episode. I wish you had time to discuss "remember the sabbath," because I've often wondered: "Which one?" For the Jews who wrote the Hebrew bible, it would have been Friday night into Sat. For Christians, Sunday. Maybe it doesn't matter, or does it?

@maklelan If I recall, Jesus also believed the end times are near

@The_Globe Oh for breath to utter what is like thee

[David Kurapka @DKurapka]

@NateSilver538 Fair enough, but given the predictions of recession that dominated the discussion over the last year, and compared to the rest of the developed world, it's looking pretty good.

@JayJacobsCFA Miami -- Pitbull, Montreal -- Leonard Cohen, Chicago -- Dinah Washington, and Boston -- avoid the obvious Boston or Aerosmith and go for the Del Fuegos
