It’s simple: giving money to poor people causes inflation, giving the same amount of money to police depts and the pentagon doesn’t. These are all natural, apolitical phenomena that exist outside human choices

"Investors are 51% of Southern California’s homebuying surge"

"Median price paid by local investors? $898,000"

Failing to deal with this company’s behavior when it started is the biggest public policy failure in the digital space in a generation. Reining it in is that much tougher now that it’s well-funded and so frequently used by government clients. https://t.co/haBHR5Pp25 @drewharwell

THREAD: Biden is reportedly nominating a former judge, Keva Landrum, to be U.S. Atty in New Orleans. The history of this judge’s illegal behavior and violent crimes will shock you to the core.

Dashers aren't stupid. They know that the difference between a profitable @Doordash delivery and one where they earn less than they spend on gas is the size of the tip they get at the end of the job.

This week, Daniel Hale, a former intelligence analyst facing more than a decade in prison for leaking documents on the US drone program, filed an 11-page letter laying out the reasons for his actions.
