The global response to hantavirus has to be an inconvenient but mandatory quarantine of cruise ship passengers and their contacts (now thousands of people) or over the next few weeks we are leaving it to fate and fortune whether we will have uncontrolled spread among millions.

Mr mayor why won't you divorce your cool wife?

One of the best things Bernie did was that he just bit the fucking bullet and said that people would have to pay higher taxes for his programs but it would be worth it because they'd end up saving more on net. I don't know why everyone acts like this is so hard to explain!

I think in 2029 nVidia needs to be a company that makes affordable graphics cards for video game applications exclusively. Every other component should be shuttered by regulation.

What the fuck.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was abruptly pulled from a live interview after being told “the President wants you right away.”

After returning, his voice was noticeably shaken.

[Fames @FamesJallows]

It's incredibly clear that our domestic agencies have a rolodex of guys they have interacted with, set up plots for preciously for the purpose of generating arrests and know could be easily pushed into action.

It doesn't matter to these people that other people are losing their lives. What matters to them is the money. I think that this is why this is all happening.

The Trump administration in both this term and the last intentionally manufactures market moving crises and within these crises, executes a series of pump and dump schemes.

[Fames @FamesJallows]

He was never charged criminally for this activity, and it was prevalent during both his terms. Routinely during covid would hold press conferences to boost pharma stocks then deliver bad news or hold Q&A after markets closed.

Brookings Institute, Manhattan Institute, working for the Republican Senator of Ohio. Not signs of an agenda for the working, the elderly or the poor. Selling right wing politics inside the democratic tent is cynical.

I think what convinced me Social Security needs reform is the realization that if we replaced the entire Social Security benefits system with a flat $30,000 a year for every retiree, the trust fund shortfall would totally vanish and the poverty rate for seniors would go *down*.

This man hates this country, hates the people of this country, hates especially everyone who voted for him.

NOW - Trump says he's been briefed on Iranian sleeper cells inside the U.S.: "We know where most of them are, we've got our eye on all of them—I think."

Guy who both says shit like we can't let the perfect be the enemy of the good and also I can't vote for this housing bill because of restrictions on institutional investors who I also argue play no meaningful role in the housing crisis in this specific area.

[Austin Ahlman for Congress @ahlmanforne]

“My private-equity funded group is threatening to tank a popular housing bill over a provision that bans something we argue isn’t a problem in the first place. This definitively proves how hypocritical my critics are.”

[Fames @FamesJallows]

I think this is very revealing. A specific interest was touched here. And all the same people got together on message. It lets you know what people are really protecting. Hard to trust people for whom this is for some reason a radioactive third rail.

[Kelsey Piper @KelseyTuoc]

Elizabeth Warren turned out to be one of the most profound disappointments imaginable as a Senator. Presented as a technocrat interested in what works, actually the absolute worst of the slopulists.

[Fames @FamesJallows]

Everybody is playing a little too cute and coordinated on here. There are resolvable contradictions that people are trying very hard not to resolve.

[Fames @FamesJallows]

Astroturf. Either institutional investors are so marginal as is constantly claimed that this would have no real impact or it would have impact and people are protecting discreet corporate interests they pretend are marginal.

They're going after this guy for basically embarrassing the mayor and tarnishing the public image he was cultivating through this PR campaign. Having the mayor personally clear basically loitering at most is shallow rich kid posturing, not governance.

[Emily Mills @sf_mills]

This is incredibly dangerous. The mayor started a fight over nothing, immediately tried to railroad this man in the press, and now has the *actual* victim of violence arrested and locked up. Incredibly dangerous times.
