We're getting down to "Well, he doesn't wear the uniform or have a weird little mustache" as one of the last remaining explanations of how JD Vance is not an actual Nazi.
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

This is wild, and as a lifelong proud-ish Upper WEST Sider, I offer it as humble proof that although God knows we have our faults, the Upper East Side is...hooboy. Not the same AT ALL. This really captures how the UES can sometimes feel like the largest gated community in NYC.

What a HUGE misogynist Lawrence Summers is.

Summers to Epstein:

"...half the IQ In world was possessed by women without mentioning they are more than 51 percent of population..."

"...hit on a few women 10 years ago and can't work at a network or think tank. DO NOT REPEAT THIS INSIGHT"

I thought the same. In a sense, that is what’s happened because most people who know better ditched that place ages ago, and it’s funny that there are still a few clever, mostly older folks on there who don’t know or care about leaving, who will hurl verbal Molotovs at him.
