Obama had a Dem House & Senate from Jan-09 to Jan-11 and a Senate Filibuster proof supermajority from Jan-09 to Feb-10.
Biden had a Dem House & Senate from Jan-21 to Jan-23
Both squandered it. We can't let that happen again. Next time Dems control Gov't we need to demand real change & reform

The Post analyzed TikTok watch histories provided to it by 1,100 users. The data illustrates "the platform’s power to show you what you might want, and also reveals vast oceans of content you may never see —and perhaps don’t know exist." One finding: gender plays a big role in what videos are shown.

The days of innocence, when search engines where unbased, faithful and trustworthy began to end 10 years ago. Now that transformation is complete. They have become nothing more than a newer, more subtle way, to advertise and direct consumers to chosen venues
I wanted dinner recommendations so I scraped 13,000+ London restaurants and accidentally discovered Google Maps is running a shadow economy. Anyway here's a dashboard and a political economy thesis: open.substack.com/pub/laurenle...
How Google Maps quietly allocates survival across London’s restaurants - and how I built a dashboard to see through it
I wanted a dinner recommendation and got a research agenda instead. Using 13000+ restaurants, I rebuild its ratings with machine learning and map how algorithmic visibility actually distributes power.

China, N. Korea, Russia would never have repeatedly tested the US like this in the past. They do it b/c they know we are weak with a weak President & are seeing how far they can go. If we let them go far enough without a response they will conclude we no longer have the stones & spirit for a fight
Russia and China just sent long-range bombers and fighter jets into South Korea’s air defense zone, forcing Seoul to scramble jets. A clear sign they are tightening military cooperation and testing US allies, jointly challenging the US.
