Isn’t inflation by definition “in aggregate”?

Zohran Mamdani scores 17-point lead with Jewish voters in NYC mayoral race Mamdani's support among Jewish voters comes after accusations from opponents and some community leaders that his criticism of Israel represents antisemitism.

it’s almost like all the attacks calling Mamdani antisemitic were vapid bad faith bullshit created by politicians with no policy plan other than smashing the “scary muslim” button

How about just appealing to democracy instead. Something this country lacks.

Marco Rubio, Stephen Miller, Kirsti Noem, Joseph Mazzara, Emil Bove, Drew Sargent, and everyone else involved in planning, executing, and obstructing justice around the CECOT imprisonments are responsible for Andry's torture and rape.

Each bears a share of the blame. Don't ever let them forget it.

Same thing happened with the Iraq War! So many savvy Responsible Adults later admitted it was a huge tragic mistake, but that somehow they were still right for supporting it when they did. Who did they still think WAS wrong, though? Those dumb filthy hippies who opposed it too early!

Lol that’s awful then!

Might just be a simple proxy for polling purposes, even if it isn’t perfect. Seems like it could skew things more than they think though.

The visible foot of the state?

I don't claim to know the answer. But I suspect many people are opposed to tariffs, but support broad corporate tax increases.

random question:

folks (I think correctly) surmise that companies will pass on tariff costs to consumers, and call it a tax.

How many of these people feel the same way about increasing corporate taxes? What is the difference?

Maybe legalism wasn’t the best case to make after all. The constitution is the crisis.

Trends in US Children’s Mortality, Chronic Conditions, Obesity, Functional Status, and Symptoms This study aims to determine how US children’s health has been changing from 2007 to 2023 using multiple data collection methods and a comprehensive set of health indicators.

US kids are 15x more likely to die by gun, and 2.5x more likely to die by car than kids in the OECD 18 countries.

All while their health is deteriorating in other ways.

Day 1 as full time stay at home parent begins. Light a candle for me!

Less than a year ago @nytimes.com was sent hacked data about Trump's vetting of JD Vance, which they refused to publish.

But Mamdami's hacked college application gets an exception because of interest from random online Nazis and Chris Rufo, the NYTimes' de facto executive editor.

Sadest part: it will probably work at currying favor too

sounds oddly like Russians citizens selling their post-USSR ownership vouchers (formerly publicly owned) for pennies on the dollar
