A friendly reminder that @KeithMcCullough's "Family Office" has returned by ~4% a year annualized.

If you pay attention to numbers obsessively day-to-day you can miss the bigger picture. And the bigger picture is that this might be the best--or among the best--job markets we've ever had--as measured by delivering jobs for people that want them.
I met a father and son down in Florida during the #Brewers' World Series run and it got me thinking about my parents. My column on a missing piece: https://t.co/LDVxCB3Et5
Thank you #WI08! I am incredibly grateful for the trust you have placed in me and for the opportunity to continue representing you in Washington.
I give you my word: over the next two years, I will keep showing up, fighting for you, and working every day to make life better for hardworking families.
It’s crazy how the addition of the pitch clock and then incorporating the ABS challenge system made @mlb a better product than the @nfl in a few short years.
Democratic nominee for Wisconsin Secretary of State:
"My number one priority is to see the Governor sign driver's licenses for [illegal aliens] into law."
I would agree to a plan to phase out social security over the next 25 years, even knowing that it means the system will end right at the moment when I would start drawing a check. If that means that my kids and grandchildren aren’t subjected to this scam for their entire lives, I’m willing to take that hit. I just can’t for the life of me understand or relate to the older people who don’t feel that way and wouldn’t be willing to make the sacrifice for the sake of their descendants. Totally foreign mentality to me. I truly find it baffling. Setting my kids up for the future is like one of the only things I care about anymore.
It’s not that the wealthy don’t think they pay enough taxes, it is they don’t trust the government to not wastefully spend their tax dollars ie, fraudulently.
President Obama: “We can have debates about what our marginal tax rates should be and I would argue wealthy people in this country do not pay enough in taxes and the ultra-wealthy oftentimes pay no taxes and have figured out how to game the system. But when I hear billionaires, folks who cannot spend ever a fraction of their wealth and neither can their kids or their grandkids, say they are moving to Florida because they’re trying to avoid a state tax which is a rounding error in their wealthy, there is a certain mentality there that says I should not have to give up anything”
I just left the ICE detention facility in Leavenworth, Kansas to check on my constituents who are being detained.
While my constituents said they were being treated well, I can’t figure out why they’re here.
They’re asylum seekers and moms with no criminal records, they’re far from the “worst of the worst.”
But the company makes $307,000 off each bed.
It’s clear profit is driving ICE, not any public safety concerns.
Division should not prevail over the spirit of unity that brought us together after September 11th.
On this 25th anniversary, we should honor those we lost by coming together again as New Yorkers and Americans.
The Mayor of New York City will be there, as he should be.
Way way way worse than that in D.C.
Since the Covid lockdowns, DC seems empty almost all the time. There are pockets of action (near Smithsonian, Georgetown, The Wharf) but M-F the downtown area is bereft of workers.
Many friends that work in DC haven't been to offices since 2020 .. or go in only sporadically.
