one of the great disconnects around public policy: it is often incredibly expensive to do invasive anti-fraud measures and you end up spending more money than the actual cost of the fraud you're preventing
and of course it makes the user experience miserable every single time

SCOOP: Since SSA installed new anti-fraud checks on claims made over the phone, only 2 claims out of over 110,000 were found to likely be fraudulent, according to internal documents I obtained.
The policy has slowed down payments, though. Retirement claim processing is down 25%

People aren’t suffering due to financial issues?
Both sides of Dem infighting are the same; moderates go "the woke left cares more about pronouns than working families" and the progressives go "we shouldn't focus on culture war but on working class issues" but they agree that the American people care only about money, not the suffering of others.

Let’s not look inward and continue to blame everyone else! It’s worked great so far, it’s important that we never learn a thing. Even if it means we keep losing. Our egos are the most important thing here.
Seriously they've been picking at the Biden scab repeatedly since July, let's move on to picking at the orange man scab pls

Can’t relitigate the Mikko trade guys. Gotta stick with what we knew at the time. It can’t possibly be that we were wrong at the time and that future events can change our minds. Gotta be a slave to what we told ourselves when it happened.
The Dallas Stars have scored 14 goals in the past 10 periods.
Mikko Rantanen has scored 7 of them and assisted on 6 others.
13 points in 10 periods.

Idk man. Maybe the team you thought you had isn’t the team you had. Maybe the league is changing. Maybe those top end guys are more important than previously thought. Maybe spending significant money on guys that disappear for series at a time in the name of depth doesn’t work. Maybe things changed?
Sakic on frustration with Rantanen ending up in Dallas: This stings, not because Mikko is on the other side. It stings because we thought we were close. It was wide open.
That's where it stings, is just knowing the type of team we had, not to get through.

Changes in the GM role.
Changes behind the bench? Future of Brock Nelson? And how do you handle a potential Martin Necas extension? Big questions everyone hoped to talk about later...or not at all.

Glad they’ve decided to let us know early they don’t plan to compete.
#Avs end-of-season press conference tomorrow will include Chris MacFarland and Joe Sakic.
Avs don't do the traditional locker room clean-out day media with a bunch of players/coach/GM. Last year, it was MacFarland and Gabe Landeskog (because he hadn't played/talked all season).

It’s not enough to fire MacFarland. We must find a way to make sure he goes to hell.

When you think about it, this really was an ingenious way by Ulbrich’s kid to get people to stop ripping the Falcons’ first round trade.
Oh dear Lord.
Jax Ulbrich, son of Atlanta Falcons defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich, was the one who prank called Shedeur Sanders during the NFL Draft.

News on the Chiefs Super Bowl parade 👇
Last week Blood Tribe pre-announced their intention to march next month in the Great Lakes area. If you're in the region, especially OH or MI, it would be worth your time to have a flexible plan for responding. Get photos, plates, any identifying info if possible / unable to risk confrontation.

Smh Chiefs stealing the spotlight from these incredible women. Misogyny.

Blockbuster WNBA deal: The Seattle Storm are trading six-time All-Star Jewell Loyd to the Las Vegas Aces in a multi-team move that sends three-time All-Star Kelsey Plum to the Los Angeles Sparks, sources tell me, @ramonashelburne, @alexaphilippou, @kendra__andrews.

Actually every 80/20 call too, either direction.
I'm not much of a football fan so I checked the rule book... it says all 50/50 calls must benefit the Chiefs
