Raising the economic bar far too high, Trump and his team set themselves up for failure
It’s widely understood that officials should under-promise and over-deliver. On economic growth, the White House has got it backward.

If you're wondering what happened to Nate Silver, he was into the COVID lab leak theory and got negative feedback online, including from epidemiologists and virologists and (GASP!) posters, which added to his belief that The Woke are victimizing Nate Silver. It spiraled from there.

In my opinion the president shouldn't constantly be like "Holy shit did you guys see this?" and repeating a thing he kinda heard on TV. I don't think that should be mostly what the president does.
He issued a correction, proving why he needs to stfu and let the cops do their jobs.
It’s a a goddamned ongoing tragedy, not a reality TV show, primed for him to drop the big reveal.

This fall, my 12yo daughter was in her classroom when they had a shelter in place warning. Her teacher had briefly left the room so the kids were alone. They hid in a closet. It was not a shooter, but they didn’t know. Their baseline assumption is that someone will shoot them in their classroom

A small business program allowed Christopher Dawson to win big contracts if he promised to uplift Native Hawaiians. Instead, federal prosecutors allege, he used the money to line his own pockets.
