Burgess Meredith, born today in 1907

Of “Time Enough at Last”, he said: “I don’t think I’ve ever done any other project that people talk to me more about than that show. .. It’s gotten to the point where when they first approach me, I almost know what they’re going to say.”

Watch this.
I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

🔥 The White House released an article on Monday citing a DoorDash report as confirmation that "inflation has been tamed."

I asked a DoorDash spokesperson today if the company had concluded from its report that inflation had been tamed. DoorDash spokesperson told me, "We did not write that."

Hot take: this is probably the best case for Dems. It funds the government but still blames republicans for higher premiums. The health care issue was lost when senate Dems passed the tax cut bill
Whoa -- Sen. Durbin went to up Leader Thune during the vote last night to tell him that on the shutdown vote and ACA promise that "8 of us are sticking our neck out that you're going to keep your word. I hope you will. He said 'I assure you I will,'" Durbin says just now

Watching another president demolish these odes of self-importance will go a long way to restoring a sense of public service.
He was elected thanks to microplastics so it makes sense he’d decorate with macroplastics

JPMORGAN: “.. today’s report from Challenger .. showed a surge in announced job cuts to 153k — the highest level since Covid — up from 54k in September. We are hesitant to place too much weight on these data, but it is one of the more downbeat signals to come during the current data drought.”

It's fascinating. The deficit of one sector emerges as the surplus of another. Basically, 30% of wealth is held by the top 1%, 67% by the top 10%, and just 2.5% by the bottom 50% of households. One sector rises to the extent the others sink.

Not politics. Just accounting.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"
