This nonsense is downstream from companies transferring risk onto workers, and then calling them independent contractors.
Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"

This reminds me of the "punch, deny, counter-punch" tactics that Ian Haney López claims are central to the theater of dog-whistle racism.

Ppl do something racist. When called out on it, they deny it's racist. Then they accuse the person who correctly identified the racism as being the real racist.
This is so insightful:

Indo-European linguistic connections like this are so cool. So too, "pur" or "puri" (British spelling, "pore") in many place names in India, e.g., Jodhpur, Jaipur, Kanpur.

Another example: "knowledge." Greek "γνώ" as in gnosis, Sanskrit "ज्ञा" as in jnana, and English "kno" as in know/ledge.

Pretty much all affordability discourse could benefit from just posting this chart.

If you're in the better off America, all the luxury goods you want in excess are for the most part much cheaper. If you're in the poorer America, most of the shit you need to live/grow is more expensive.

Wow: Per Hamdi's legal team, his only charge was a visa overstay — after Trump revoked his visa.

Despite DHS tweeting that Hamdi supported terrorism, they never charged him with any criminality.

In other words: Trump revoked a journalist's visa, so agents could arrest him for overstaying his visa.
NEW: British journalist Sami Hamdi is being released from US detention.

Trump administration agents detained him two weeks ago at the San Francisco airport — hours after he addressed an event, where he urged US leaders to take an “America First” approach rather than “Israel First.”

Started getting serious replies about who the BBC can and cannot select, like I was actually suggesting that the evil spirit of Oswald Mosley would be an actual contender and not making a fucking joke.
Labour are going to drag the tormented, insane spirit of Oswald Mosley up from hell for the BBC Director General job. It's official.
