One of my more controversial opinions is that the US needs to significantly raise taxes to the tune of a couple % of GDP right now, even before any expansive social democratic reforms, and that means you—yes you, dear highly educated professional—will need to pay up, not just nebulous billionaires.

At least 11 congressmen from 1865-1871 were arguably not citizens under Trump's interpretation of 14th A, our research finds. Yet no one challenged their eligibility to serve. Why not? Obviously, b/c no one who drafted or ratified the 14th A shared Trump's view.

If your wage leads to a "tight" budget that still allows you to live in a "well-off Boston suburb" it is not poverty.

Bring the hammer down. As a candidate, and hopefully as a member of Congress, I strongly endorse hammering the living shit out of Republicans until they agree that democracy is important and the shit that's broken is fixed.
People only change their minds when the pain of not changing surpasses the pain of changing. Republicans have to be made to feel extraordinary political pain if they are to say enough, please stop, we’re ready to talk independent redistricting.

Conducting tasks while receiving e-mails and phone calls reduces a worker’s IQ by about ten points relative to working in uninterrupted quiet. That is equivalent to losing a night’s sleep, and twice as debilitating as using marijuana.
