@StephenM "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

@Staroxvia @LakerGMC_ But it is 2024, and Biden took office in 2021.

[Sonjay Singh @sonjaysays]

If you offer condescension instead of empathy to people whose real wages have dropped over the last four years, and who were already struggling to make ends meet, they will not vote for you.

Until we understand this, we will continue to lose.

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

“Daddy?”

Yes Johnny?

“King Trump deported my friends, closed my school, forced me to work in a factory and let mommy die when she was pregnant with my little sister, so why did you vote for him?”

“Because the price of eggs was too high, son.”

[Sonjay Singh @sonjaysays]

Tremendous.

Day in and day out, the @FTC under @LinaKhanFTC protects consumers from scams that cost Americans billions of dollars a year.

Today, the FTC took action to permanently ban a company that preyed on consumers with low credit scores and will return $12 million to scammed Americans.

[Rohit Chopra @ChopraUSA]

For too long, junk fees have been creeping across the economy.

But over the last few years, actions by the @CFPB, @USDOT, @FTC, and other agencies will save American families tens of billions of dollars each year. And there's a lot more work to do. https://t.co/IiwwDiv2HO

Last Week: "Joe Biden is too old to serve as president. The majority of voters don't want him to run."

This Week: "It's undemocratic for Joe Biden to drop out of the race."

Loper Fisher: Only We can properly determine complex, fact-based issues of law.

Trump v. U.S.: Idk, it kind of depends.

Very courageous adjudication, thanks guys.

What does @VivekGRamaswamy mean that we should deploy the military assets we are sending to Ukraine on the border? Does the border patrol have any possible use for tanks, anti-aircraft guns and F-16s?

Child labor laws were written with the blood of child laborers. Is this really a lesson we need to learn twice?

@ErikHovenkamp Have to imagine the calculus is different when the incumbent platform's owner is both (1) widely despised, and (2) seemingly incompetent. Zuck's thermoreceptors detect blood in the water.

"At 38 colleges in America, including five in the Ivy League – Dartmouth, Princeton, Yale, Penn and Brown – more students came from the top 1 percent of the income scale than from the entire bottom 60 percent."

Yikes.

@LindseyGrahamSC But our defense spending is still almost 3x as much as China, and more than the next 10 countries combined, right? Remind me how seemingly all of our discretionary spending is misallocated, apart from the ~45% that goes to defense?

[Sonjay Singh @sonjaysays]

Funny how many $1B startups falter when they have to make money. WeWork is just corporate leasing. Snap and Pinterest are subpar online advertising platforms. NYC cabs are undercutting Uber.

Easy to "disrupt"...until regulators take notice, and VCs stop subsidizing your prices.

[Sonjay Singh @sonjaysays]

It has to end - from racial discrimination, to wage theft, to sexual assault, victims of every kind of corporate misconduct are barred from the courthouse by strings of legalese, designed not to be read, and presented on a cell phone screen.

Justice just has to mean more.

[Public Justice @Public_Justice]

The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia ruled that Uber drivers in the U.S. cannot avoid arbitration for wage and hour claims. This ruling prevents the drivers' ability to seek justice collectively through class-action lawsuits. https://t.co/MfffBYN8wv

Google is very, very good at computing almost everything about your life based on just your current usage of its products. How much will it know after you start having conversations with its AI?

We need better data privacy laws.

The 5th-largest river in the U.S. could dry up due to decades of overuse to maintain farming, pools, and lawns in what is quite literally desert.

Yet, even state govt's choose short-term gain over sustainability.

Truly - the climate crisis in nutshell.

Private equity firms could own 40% of single-family homes by 2030.  If we don’t act America will become a nation of renters putting the American Dream further out of reach.  We need to pass the Stop Wall Street Landlords Act.

Like, come on - this guy should be fighting Captain Planet, not managing a football team.

While a Commanders resurgence may threaten my Philadelphia Eagles, Snyder is outlandishly malevolent - the corporate equivalent of a Batman villain. No team deserves such leadership, and the NFL is much better off without him skulking around the owner's meetings.

[Dan Primack @danprimack]

It’s official. Josh Harris is buying the Washington Commanders. The Dan Snyder era is over.
