Where in Marbury did Marshall make a "signature policy" exception to judicial review?

Typical VC bullshitter. Wouldn't know a clustered SE from a Toyota Camry SE.

Just like asset managers, they either use the term incorrectly or present it without a t-statistic.

Also, trillions more financial acct surplus = trillions more current account deficit.

Serious question from non-political scientist: yesterday seemed to increase Dem shutdown leverage (i.e., they're not getting blamed), so why not also demand troop w/drawal from cities and that ICE show ID and a warrant? Otherwise, no deal. (Not that a deal w/ this regime is worth anything.)

SNAP benefits grew by 47% during Trump I (2017-20), and fell by 36% under Biden (2021-24). Chart below shows level.

Serious question from a non pol scientist: why would Dems do any deal w/ ppl who disregard past deals? A long shutdown would be painful, but losing what's left of the republic prob much more painful.

He said deficits, not debt.

Ohio's relative economic decline helps with understanding the chip on Vance's shoulder. Chart shows Ohio per cap income relative to Mass. (other wealthy states that made the switch to services work too). There's a reason MAGA wants to go back to the 1950s specifically.

More pseudo-intellectual, pseudo-historical nonsense from the VP, the guy that passes for an intellectual on the right these days.

Every Republican, and especially the speaker, will end up where Tuberville is today.

MAGA hates that you pointed this out, but loves that you called America an "Anglo-Saxon" country.

Every single Congressional race next year should be about one question: do you want the Pres to have all the power? Every race is effectively the Dem candidate vs. Trump.

Great argument for a 100% estate tax beyond some level of wealth, no exceptions.
