@ScottGreenfield Dude, he found important intelligence buried deep in mortgage paperwork! No one else could have done that.

@wonderofscience Angel Falls is the largest single-drop waterfall, at 979 m.

@BobbyBorkIII My guess is you aren’t really a stickler for punishing all those who violate traffic laws. For what fraction of your driving miles are you below the speed limit?

[SP @SlopedPyramid]

@JustinWolfers And how do you ascertain last year’s gas spending?

[SP @SlopedPyramid]

@dilanesper If 100% tax is a taking, any tax is a taking. Takings only happen when something specific is taken. So if income of $1M generates a tax liability of $1M, you could pay that out of other money, so it isn't a taking.

@dilanesper Really? Because this seems pretty obvious.

@dilanesper And while I recognize that these are young people who are struggling, and that participation in girls’ sports would likely be a bright spot in their lives because it would be a place where they are likely to excel, I still think that the fairness aspect outweighs that.

@dilanesper So unfortunately we are left with a choice of trans girls who perform at the strength/speed of boys, or a ban.

@mllichti @conor64 And grants to states and local governments are $1.2 trillion. And don't forgot grants to universities and non-profits, which I can't find a number on. But keep beating this dead horse. It was a joke anyway.

@mllichti @conor64 Procurements are about $750 billion. If you take the statement literally - "if the only dollars that went out of the treasury went to individuals...", that would include money that went through corporations to individuals, and is larger than the deficit. It was a joke anyway.

[SP @SlopedPyramid]

@Patrick_am_I @conor64 Yes.

@ScottGreenfield Anyone can look good if they chose that schlock to park next to.

@JohnHar95851657 @WalshFreedom It was an ICE checkpoint set up in a residential area, where she lived. That’s what it says in the article.

@ddiamond @mattyglesias 3 in thirteen months means he’s probably targeting twice a year, but was a bit late fitting it in. Without more specific information, that seems reasonable.

@dilanesper There are a lot more people with Ph.D.s than with professorships, so “Professor” is the more exclusive term than “Dr.”

@BlckEyesNseBlds @RichardHanania It has not existed without foreigners. Let me ask you a question. What is the probability that the most intelligent baby born this year is born in the United States?
