When Massachusetts passed a "millionaires tax" in 2023, conservatives claimed the rich would flee.
But two years later, they haven't — and MA has collected $5.7B for infrastructure and public education.

Where do you think the red lines are for the Fortune 500, a majority of the public, Congress? I suspect if we reach their redlines, we’ll reach them in that order. God willing, not too late.

Why interrogatories and not a 30b6? 21 days to respond is better than 30, but a whole lot of damage can be done in those 21 days. Plus, knowing names doesn’t provide much better basis to enjoin on the 22nd day. And the question about scope of Musk’s power or authority won’t be hard to evade.

For me, the sound of Ramadan is that moment between sets of rakaas during Taraweeh, where the adults are quiet and contemplative and you can hear the kids in the neighboring room playing and screaming. I love this month.

I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.
