Nobody seems to dispute that we are in a norm regression w/ our domestic politics and governance and that it's bad for the nation. Instead of trying to slow or reverse it, though, there's a universal desire just to fight about who started it. It's childish.
They donβt raise questions. Her campaign admits she lied.

This is not very much money. SLF is spending more than $50M. How much will be spent in this race? Now ask why anybody is thinking about AIPAC. Hmmm
NEWS β
AIPAC is preparing to spend big for Mike Rogers in Michigan.
AIPAC plans to send up to $9 million to the Rogers super PAC, potentially reigniting a clash with Abdul El-Sayed.

NEW YORK TIMES now confirming my reporting from weeks ago that El-Sayed signed a letter in support of the Muslim Brotherhood in 2012
(naturally not crediting the Free Beacon at all)
El-Sayed also refused to comment on letter to them!)

It can absolutely be both if the billionaires think it will not be a one time tax, even if they're wrong.

First Macron, now this. Do Europeans understand incentives?
In light of recent episodes of violence, the Church in France is calling for a response to the anxiety expressed by young people and those who feel marginalized or left behind, with the Archbishop of Tours advocating for restoring democratic dialogue through intermediary institutions.

She can authorize her university to release her records so the GPA can be compared to the threshold that year. She won't, because it looks like she's continuing to lie.

Don't lie about your resume, and don't lie about your height.

And this is almost certainly false given the other reporting on GPA thresholds:
βThe lieutenant governor was nominated for Phi Beta Kappa, but like too many other students, she couldnβt afford the application fees to become a part of the honor society,β Alexandra Fetissoff, a campaign spokeswoman, said in a statement.>>
You can express appreciaton for somebody living up to his side of a transaction (sanctions relief in exchange for prisoner release) without this framing.

Short thread.
One of my favorite films is Once Upon a Time in the West by Sergio Leone, scored by Ennio Morricone, who passed away today. I find that few people younger than me have seen this film. Also, there are too many people younger than me. youtu.be/ViEsSSDgO-s 1/x
