add to this: what many liberals want isn’t something dem party can give in its current state
strategically, all that matters is midterms, which Dems will win—assuming they don’t do something stupid

the matrix loves satire
Require a 2-line rationale block on each AI-generated doc explaining why it was created and what next steps are so half-baked drafts become clear tasks, saving hours of follow-up. How could your team adopt this?

A pod shop seat is far more working class in the classical Marxist sense than being a teacher:
1. No route to firm partnership/control of workplace
2. Explicitly at-will and frequently fired with zero job security
3. Subject to strict internal regimentation/Taylorism
4. Alienated from work product

good. senate dems made the right call.
the shut down was a trap.
this stings but it ensures the courts remain functional.
strategy now is courts issue stay orders.
force GOP to defy courts
if they do, rise up
if they don’t, vote them out
then prosecute.

1-DOGE has captured treasury (since 21 Jan using extraordinary measures to avoid default) & BFS payment systems
this enables Musk to choose what line items to fund/not fund
2-courts are primary obstacle slowing DOGE & EO lawlessness

during last debt default threat, the Fed developed emergency measures to protect UST:
federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy…
To truly default, ability for the Fed to respond has to be disabled.
a shutdown opens the window.

As an asset owner you need to remember one thing and one thing only: all sequences of returns that include a zero end in a zero
What Elon, Thiel & Co are doing is vastly increasing the left tail outcome of a zero for all investors -- if you own assets, you should not ignore that
