@TheHighTake Also the last 5 presidents have had moments where the stock market hit all time highs. It just to up lol

& trying to give Trump credit for the increase in life expectancy is hilarious

[Tom Collins @EconDon9]

This idiot does not realize things aren’t equally distributed.

It’s called a K-shaped economy. Things are going well for the top & bad for the bottom. 80% of people don’t own stocks outside 401ks. Record unemployment for college grads, housing unaffordable, high gas prices etc

[Clay Travis @ClayTravis]

Record high stocks, historically low unemployment, lowest murder rate in history, & average lifespan just hit 79 years old, highest ever. Yet U Michigan consumer sentiment just hit 50 year lows. By data things have been far worse in past 50 years. So why are people so unhappy?

[Tom Collins @EconDon9]

Probably anti foreign war, lower inflation, better housing affordability, anti big corporation, abortion rights

Just a guess tho!

[Clay Travis @ClayTravis]

The Dow has crossed 51,000 for a record high and the S&P 500 has also hit yet another record high today. Gas prices are down again as well, now at $87 a barrel, and I believe gas prices will be around $3 a gallon by fall. What will Democrats run on then?

This guy is quickly being one of the most unlikable people on the internet

Modern life has tricked us into thinking travel is good.

It's kind of barbaric for the body.

Last time I went to Asia we measured my biomarkers.

The data was bad…

+ 9 days for blood glucose stability
+ 9 days to re-entrain my circadian rhythm
+ 18 days for sleep architecture recovery

The research:
+ people who travel constantly for work (3+ wks a month) have measurably more anxiety, depression, and drinking problems than people who don’t
+ repeated jet lag is linked to memory-region shrinkage in flight crews
+ your immune system takes a hit. Dry cabin air dries out mucous membranes that block infection which can leave you more exposed to getting sick

This is intuitive because the body runs on a clock. Biological processes kicked off by another, with sleep + sun running the show.

Cabin altitude is ~7,000 ft. Hypoxia alone disrupts cortisol and suppresses nocturnal melatonin for hours after you land. Cabin humidity drops as low as 5% (drier than the Sahara).

If you’re budgeting your international trips: I’d suggest no more than once every 3 months. Evidence shows you need ~1 day per time zone to re-entrain, and east is worse than west.

Once Kate gets back she’s starting the female protocol. This also means she can’t travel internationally for at least a few months while we collect baseline measurement.

The body understands time zone changes as trauma.

I hope that this is my last international trip for a very long time.

I stopped drinking alcohol 15 years ago.

Had a couple drinks this weekend.

It was a good reminder of one of the best decisions I've ever made. Highly recommend giving it a try.

[Tom Collins @EconDon9]

Horrible take. Just horrible

[Rep Ryan Zinke @RepRyanZinke]

Last week, two grizzly bear attacks claimed the life of a hiker in Glacier National Park and seriously injured two others in Yellowstone National Park. These tragedies are a sobering reminder that grizzly bear populations have recovered well beyond sustainable levels, and it is past time for the federal government to delist them and give states the management tools they need to protect both people and wildlife. Delist the grizzly.

@alpert Tell me why it’s a bad use of land

[Tom Collins @EconDon9]

@kevsaucebro Why not? Genuinely why do we need more memorials? And wha do you recommend it’s of?

[Tom Collins @EconDon9]

@kevsaucebro You didn’t answer any of my questions lol

[Tom Collins @EconDon9]

@kevsaucebro Why do we need more national memorials? It’s also not the national mall. Not sure why you keep saying that

[Tom Collins @EconDon9]

@CalvinMoore_ Why?

[Tom Collins @EconDon9]

The is going to the death of me.

Unbelievable

[Reese Gorman @reesejgorman]

NEWS: East Potomac Golf is expected to shut down on Sunday after the last tee time as the Trump administration officially takes it over.

Renovations will start at a later date once compliance has been met. Tom Fazio expected to lead the renovation.

Additionally, the admin has offered the National Links Trust a renewed lease for Rock Creek Park Golf with a waiver for unpaid rent.

[Tom Collins @EconDon9]

Why?

[Jeffery Tompkins @JATompkins]

I personally think these should be legal to build in most urban neighborhoods

[Tom Collins @EconDon9]

Misinformation!

Fruit, oats and nuts are not unhealthy. Just don’t get the sugary brands

[Luka |⚡️ @nivholls]

Maturing is realising these are not healthy.

[Tom Collins @EconDon9]

@TheHighTake And there 1000% better then police since they don’t step in unless it’s like a very serious event. I understand not liking police since they are narks/have a history of racial bias

[Tom Collins @EconDon9]

This is going to be a hot take….

But I like having the national guard deployed in DC.

Is there better uses of the money? Absolutely. Should we even have the budget for these people? Probably not.

But I can’t help but feel just a little bit safer when I see them.

[Madison Crum @crum_madison_]

I don’t appreciate anything about the National Guard loitering in the metro

[Tom Collins @EconDon9]

Tbh I expected the dog to do more.

Takes him 10 seconds to fight off a crackhead with a wooden cane?? Police dogs have gotten soft

[Breaking911 @Breaking911]

WATCH: A police K9 apprehended a stabbing suspect in downtown San Diego after authorities say Lathapoun Keovongsa allegedly stabbed a parking attendant twice in the head in a parking lot.

Police located the suspect armed with a 6-foot wooden cane and used non-lethal rounds along with a K9 unit to subdue him. The victim was transported to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
