04.12.2024 11:04 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Democrat Adam Gray has flipped CA-13 from red to blue, winning by just 187 votes. The House now has 217 Republicans and 215 Democrats, partly due to Trump picking congressmembers for his cabinet. This could end up as 220 Republicans and 215 Democrats, or even lower.

03.12.2024 12:15 โ ๐ 24 ๐ 11 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0The fast food industry's claim that raising the minimum wage would hurt the economy was disproven in Californiaโs recent wage hike. The adjustment led to higher wages, minimal price increases, and an ongoing expansion of jobsโdemonstrating a more balanced outcome.
04.12.2024 10:22 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The results of Californiaโs wage increase show that, contrary to industry fears, a wage hike didnโt destroy jobs or cause runaway price inflation. Instead, workers saw tangible improvements, and the industry adapted by maintaining job growth and modest price adjustments.
04.12.2024 10:21 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Californiaโs decision to raise the minimum wage for fast food workers to $20/hour didnโt have the catastrophic effects the industry predicted. Instead of massive job losses or skyrocketing prices, workers benefited from higher pay, and the industry continued to grow.
04.12.2024 10:21 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The idea that pardons can fundamentally reshape a presidency seems exaggerated. While they may spark debate, they donโt change the course of history or overshadow the broader achievements or failures of a leader's tenure.
04.12.2024 10:21 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0It's worth noting that past pardons, like Jimmy Carterโs of his brother Billy, or George H.W. Bushโs of his son Neil, didnโt overshadow their presidencies. Similarly, Joe Bidenโs pardon of Hunter Biden wonโt define his time in office either.
