I'm starting to think — stay with me here — that the tech and media sectors are not indicative of the labor market as a whole.

McCarthy will need at least two of these six people to win every party line vote of the whole house: Biggs / Boebert / Gaetz Crane / Rosendale / Good None actually voted for him as Speaker

Just a reminder that if we default on our debt for as long as Kevin has flailed to become Speaker that could wipe out years, if not decades, of your 401k savings.
Here's the story that the press & even Dems are missing about the GOP chaos on Capitol Hill: These 20 Trump Republicans want the same thing Trump wants -- the power to destroy the country if they don't get what they want. That's what this is all about. editorialboard.com/obstructi…

Biden, leaving an event on immigration proposals, was just asked if he's following the Speaker's race. "I'm following it with great -- how can I say it?" he said, turning to VP Harris and grinning. "Attention," she suggested, grinning herself. "Attention," Biden said.

Not for nothing but if Democrats failed to elect a House Speaker for four ballots, New York Times columnists would be demanding the party arrest the Squad, adopt the Heritage Foundation's policy agenda, and impeach Biden to make room for President Kyrsten Sinema.

Yea, Sinema’s brand of unpopularism is easily one of the most overrepresented ideologies in congress
Recently, @conor64 argued that America needs more senators like Kyrsten Sinema, since self-identified "independents" are underrepresented in Congress, and this fuels public distrust in government. I think that's wrong on several levels! nymag.com/intelligencer/2023…

Watching the votes come in and can't help thinking about how much of this fiasco stems from failures by Democrats in New York.

Inflation moderation at the present moment -- when unemployment remains low and job growth remains high -- is an important argument that much of the inflation spike was due to supply shocks (which are passing) rather than demand (which remains tight).

As always, @TheRealDoctorT says it better than I ever could. I'm on my way out. My Mastodon and Post ids are pinned to my profile...
Replying to @TheRealDoctorT
Well, if this the end of my home here, let me give thanks. I am grateful for the life-altering connections and opportunities this place gave me. I am grateful for the amazing experience this has been. Above all else, I’m grateful for you, whoever you are. Thank you all. 8/

Sinema is such a weirdo, nothing she says makes sense. She’s like senate Elon Musk.

Did not have watching the first Gen-Z Congressman, @MaxwellFrostFL play drums at a ‘Skaters for Warnock’ event on my 2022 bingo card. 🤟🏽 – at Atlanta, GA

Recall that a Secret Service spokesperson was permitted by several reporters to say Ornato would contradict Cassidy Hutchinson under oath. “On Tuesday, according to the sources, Ornato …told lawmakers and committee staff that he did not recall the conversation with Hutchinson.”
Anthony Ornato — a former White House deputy chief of staff in the Trump administration, as well as a former longtime Secret Service official — was interviewed virtually by the Jan. 6 House select committee on Tuesday. cbsn.ws/3FdoX5S

If you’re concerned about the crush of kids getting sick with COVID/flu/RSV, there’s an intermediate strategy between doing nothing and schools going virtual. It’s a 4-letter word.

The only thing that could make #GuardiansoftheGalaxyHolidaySpecial better would be if the soundtrack included my favorite Xmas song - Fairytale of New York by The Pogues. Checks notes Oh wait, it does; that seals it; the special is perfect!

anyhow i expect the mainstream media to do every report on trump's campaign noting he is under federal investigation, you know the way you did with a certain other campaign during the 2016 cycle.

Give me the confidence of a rich Medicare fraud who has just suffered the biggest failure of any Republican Senate campaign since 1934
Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., is running for Senate GOP leader
