Lemme explain what bilateral trade deficits are, so that you can better understand -- and perhaps be infuriated by -- the intellectual error that's transforming our economy. #TeachEcon

On April 14, Kasper Eriksen was a welding foreman, a husband and father of four who lived on a family farm in Sturgis, Mississippi.

A day later, he was an ICE detainee, bound and shackled to the sterile white seats of a detention shuttle in Tennessee, headed southwest, barely able to wriggle.

Please highlight this story.

ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago.

Donald Trump is absolutely terrible at business, and always has been. Anyone actually paying attention has known that for decades.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.

Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

Smol tip from an elected. As a general rule we do not like to be on the wrong side of our constituents. Some are absolutely so removed that calls never filter up to them, but the vast majority of even the top level do pay attention when their staff are getting buried in angry calls. It works.

Had a similar conversation with a friend on why there are so many liquor stores in the 'hood.

I suggested that rich neighborhoods have liquor stores as well, but they also sell food and are usually called "grocery stores."

Just had a thought: the difference between a "food desert" and a "car dependent neighborhood" is the income of the residents.

Both are food deserts (there are no supermarkets, etc) one just has enough ppl with cars for it to not matter.

a black kid admitted to a selective college under an affirmative action program in say 2019 is almost certainly more qualified to attend the institution than 90% of alums from the previous generation, just by virtue of the dramatically increased competition

NEW — OMB temporarily pauses all agency grants and loans programs.

Per copy of memo: "The use of Federal resources to advance Marxist equity, transgenderism, and green new deal social engineering policies is a waste of taxpayer dollars that does not improve the day-to-day lives of those we serve."
