JD Vance as an Elliot Ness-Like fraud cop is a role that suits him, I think. The VP job, performed traditionally, is stuffy and ceremonial and inert. I like the man-of-action version better, issuing warnings, swooping in on raids, briefing the public on the recovered loot.
@Halo My friends and I have been playing Halo PC and custom edition for almost 25 years now. We never had a chance to try to purchase the Collector’s Edition. Please consider open preorders so more of us old fans can buy it.
@MisesChair Doubtful. In my opinion, the only reason Gary Johnson only did so well in ‘16 was because it was Trump and Clinton, despite him acting a bit of a pothead that election. Massie is superior but I’m skeptical he could do better. Depends on the other leading party candidates I guess
I keep playing with data from @tomselliott's reality https://t.co/tSEArn0uYs and using Grok. Here I isolate 2019 and track purchasing power from 1 and down. It reveals a 50% fall since lockdowns. Jaw on floor.
DOGE found the waste, but Big Spenders in both parties put it right back in.
Zero of it became law. Zero. The debt is still climbing, interest payments are approaching $2 trillion a year, and both parties are to blame.
BREAKING: Vice President JD Vance just deferred $1.3 BILLION dollars in Medicaid reimbursements to California because the state refuses to take fraud seriously.
"The simple reason is because the state of California has not taken fraud very seriously."

In 2012, media outlets warned Greenland's Petermann Glacier was "hemorrhaging" and would disappear "soon."
Satellite images from that year were held up as proof of irreversible melt.
But now the latest imagery reveals the opposite has played out. The glacier has rebuilt the same section that supposedly cemented its demise, advancing 30 kilometers (almost 20 miles) since 2012.
This resilience mirrors the wider Arctic trend.
Despite endless predictions calling for an "ice-free summer," sea ice extent has been stable for 18 years now, according to the official data.
The narrative said collapse.
The data say stability.
