This clip will be the historical documentary of our age. In just a couple of minutes Dr Verma, a danger to patients, destroys the credibility of doctors, women, young people, ethnic minorities, the left, and all humanity with her moronic-yet-patronising words and mode of speech.

This happens a lot but it really does suck when the paper of record treats the biggest story of your career as something that just happened to passively reveal itself.

These subtitles by @BBCArabic are just glorious

Important reporting here that corroborates @levinsonc's scoop on Locate X from earlier in the year, specifically the fact that Secret Service was using the phone tracking technology.

This is genius:

Step 1: end qualified immunity

Step 2: sue cops in civil court

Step 3: pay out damages to victims from police pension fund

Incentive-compatible reform!

1/ A Thread on Markets

It is the year 1500 and you enter a market in Renaissance-era Italy.

There are buyers and there are sellers. Prices of the various goods are determined by the interaction by and among these individuals.

Now in walks Mr. FEDerico, a man of endless means.

This pandemic will hopefully mark the end of the perversion of higher education.

Since the 1980s, kids and parents have been forced to play a series of stupid finite games - grades, extra curriculars, influence peddling, donations for infinite assets: skills and knowledge.

Lawsuit time!

@propublica joins with @nytimes, @washingtonpost, @WSJ, @business in suing the @SBAgov to make it disclose the recipients of the small-biz lending program.

With great bailout effort comes great responsibility to be transparent.
