Tom Steyer keeps running around saying that it’s unfair that billionaires like him can buy our democracy, then spending hundreds of millions dollars to do just that, then failing to get elected, and then repeating all the same lines the next time around. It’s extremely funny.

Ignorance of DMV’s demographics is an ongoing challenge. The District gets nearly all local media coverage, for instance, yet it’s only the 4th largest jurisdiction in the region. Fairfax, Montgomery and Prince George’s counties all have larger populations.

@nxthompson sounds like socialist Mamdani garbage

@RussCanRead @dannywgoodwin I find a lot of refs recognizable in all sports (except hockey probably) but maybe I just watch sports too much

This is why you can’t just bet on huge favorites over and over and over again and expect to make unlimited money

[Foazn @FoaznPoker]

If you saw $999.07 on the ground, you’d pick it up, right? Jannik Sinner🔐

Couple things:
•Sinner is GUARANTEED to win
•Foazn won’t wake up at 5am to watch

I make money in my sleep; you wake up to make money #levels

It IS harder to move when you’re older. Which is why polices that untether land value and taxes create perverse incentives. Rather than rightsizing and moving in middle age/at retirement, we have 85 y/olds rolling around alone in 4 BR/3BA houses.

It’s just so obviously not going to work, even if it somehow passes judicial review.

Coaches will make the deals under the table and formally sign the first day it’s allowed. They’ll still be at their old schools but they’ll be totally checked out

Lane Kiffin reading this legislation.

@lymanstoneky well, the provision of that and a whole lot of unnecessary garbage

I do not think it should not be against federal law for college coaches to quit mid-season.

[Jason Russell @JRussellMI]

@TPCarney Of course the real solution is for local governments to just spend less and tax less overall, but everyone would rather talk about carveouts for some than limiting government for all

[Jason Russell @JRussellMI]

@TPCarney I get that it’s harder physically and emotionally for the elderly to move, but age should not be a reason to not pay the same taxes as everyone else under the same rules
