John Fetterman once gain trying to save the Democrats from themselves.
Last week, Gallup polled only 36% of Democrats are “extremely or very proud” to be American. In the greatest country in the world, that’s just wrong. I’m unapologetically grateful for our nation and the American Way of Life—today, and always. Happy Birthday, America. 🇺🇸

This is the most American thing we have ever seen.
I’m at Mt Vernon and just listened to Arnold Schwarzenegger swear in some new citizens, in his speech saying ‘Whining is weakness.’ Now a lobbyist for JP Morgan is speaking. And it’s sponsored by Boeing.

Beautiful.
On the eve of Independence Day, watch @Hillsdale College President @DrLarryArnn explain the true meaning of the Declaration of Independence in our “Story of America” video. 🇺🇸🦅

You love to see it.
Today, Edan Alexander — held hostage by Hamas for 584 days — visited the Oval Office with his loved ones. His mother, Yael, shared: “Thank you for saving my son and bringing heart back to my family.” . We remain committed to bringing every hostage home. 🇺🇸🎗️

We don't think this is far off the mark. .
Some may find my analysis depressing, but here’s the flip side:. If someone does marry you in the 2020s, they’re literally saying . “In a world of amazing possibilities of entertainment and enjoyment, the most fun way to spend my life is with you” 🥰.

Correct.
This is not an appropriate statement by the USCCB. It is becoming much too political when the bishops are even commenting on "clean energy tax credits.". The church can and should take strong policial stances on certain matters of great importance. But not on every single thing.

Good point. .
weird how many smart ppl hold these two contradictory beliefs:. 1. we're at the precipice of an inevitable technological takeoff .which will spur 7% GDP growth etc. 2. the current fiscal path in western economies is unsustainable. how can both be true?.

Thread. .
Personally I think there are two outcomes to the global fertility collapse. Both may happen simultaneously. They are authoritarian techno-futurism and societal-collapse anarchy. (1/4)

Yes. They clearly do not. Or they would be all-in on nuclear.
I do think we need to take environmentalists seriously when they tell us they oppose abundance.

Respectfully, we disagree:

In today's Briefing, we run the final score on the OBBB (we think it's going to pass the House as-is), we talk about MAHA, the NIH, manufacturing, and more.

Has anybody actually tried to mount a substantive defense of the idea that illegal immigrants should be counted for the purpose of apportioning Congressional seats?.

Yes, the real thing about this debate is because the numbers involved are so infinitesimal on both sides that it's hard to tell.
@PolicySphere Absent qualifications regarding risk of myocarditis from infection vs Vax qualified for age/health and taking into account Vaxs ability to actually prevent infections serious enough to cause myocarditis it doesn't imply much at all for many people.
