BLS: Inflation spiked in March. The gentle return to 2% was a pipe dream. Fed: Sounds like a great time to slow shrinking the balance sheet! We're so far up the creek some bushwacker is ranting to me about all the ivory he buried nearby.

If the crash comes too late,which with how the Fed has flinched it now almost certainly will, Trump will probably turn out to be much worse on the economy than he was in his 2016 platform. I wish Rand Paul was running. I really hope he picks him or maybe Ramaswamy. Fed must die.

It takes (on average) $15,000 to "educate" a govt. school student. It takes (on average) $600 to educate a homeschooler Also, homeschoolers score 15-30% higher on tests. That's some pretty bad bang for the taxpayer's buck.

how this works is that instead of hiring a local white kid for an entry level job they will ship over some 38 year old dude from bangladesh, who will be happy living in a squalid flat with his 7 cousins

The average migrant worker is running circles around the average spoiled white kid. *note, I am a spoiled white kid. They’re frugal, thrifty, and communal. The American folks are on their phones, alone in their car at lunch. The migrants eat and laugh together.

When you believe you can convince Democrats to vote Republican, remember that Jesse still voted for Kamala despite a non trivial number of her voters fantasizing about his death.

Socialized healthcare is still just a form of insurance. Everyone pays up front into a pot (taxes), and then the insurer (government) decides what they will and won’t cover. The main difference is that the insurer has a monopoly.

I just can't wrap my head around "pro-immigrant" being such a high priority issue for some libertarians. Like, that's your summary of Coolidge? That's the Cliff Notes on his entire presidency?

This is one big reason why all the NRO talk about "Trump should refrain from lawfare" is asinine The left isn't giving up the lawfare even though Trump is President-Elect! They will not be civil, so they must be punished and deterred

NEW: Alvin Bragg says the NY case against Trump should *not* be dismissed. He offers three alternatives: -Suspend it until 2029 -Treat Trump like a dead person and “abate” the case -Assure him he won’t get jail time. w/ @joshgerstein politico.com/news/2024/12/10…

I'm not sure which is my favorite, that a vault sealed for 500 years contains WWII documents or that the Codex Vaticanus, the oldest extant copy of the Bible that we have, somehow challenges core doctrines.

I really hope this isn't cancelled, actually. It needs to bomb hard and publicly. The more prominent the corpses along the trail of literary vandalism future decades can look back on, the better.

How long until a teacher requiring minor students to speak and write with proper grammar becomes a "first amendment violation"? The Constitution was written to fit adult citizens. Children need to be raised, and raised properly so they can keep it. It is not a suicide pact!

BANNED: An Iowa middle school teacher has banned words like “Ohio,” “brain rot,” and “meow.” Students risk detention if caught using internet lingo, and reports claim at least ten kids have been punished already. FIRE is on the case to protect students' non-disruptive speech.

A “right” is something the government can’t do to you Not something it must take from others to give to you

Reminder: Health care is not a human right. Housing is not a human right. Education is not a human right. You have no right to others' labor. Your "rights" aren't rights if they require taxing/enslaving others to provide you the products/services you demand.
