Q: Will you assure House Democrats they'll get a vote on ACA subsidies by a date certain? MIKE JOHNSON: Ah -- no. I'm not promising anyone anything.

Damn - that didn't last long! Marriott is terminating their relationship with Sonder. I imagine that this is probably the end for Sonder, will be hard to survive. They had "WeWork-like" exposure to high fixed lease costs and variable demand, tough business.
Sonder is being added to Marriott Bonvoy next year. Sonder ($SOND) has struggled as a public company (mkt cap $64M, up 125% today). It will remain independent. They announced an $146 million in additional financing (various forms). Excited to have more Marriott options!

I wonder what Marc Andreessen thinks this image means. It genuinely baffles me.

If the lack of SNAP benefits for Americans at the absolute bottom of the income ladder doesn't motivate you to demand action from @TheDemocrats and @GOP (note, it should) then at least do it because you can't fly now.

Reminder: Money taken from tariffs is taken from us. Foreign governments do not pay tariffs. We do. This is an additional tax on us.
BREAKING: Trump falsely claims the U.S. is “taking trillions” from tariffs and promises a $2,000 dividend “for everyone.”

If you have tiny children it’s entirely possible to have an entire days worth of crying and falling down and puzzles and snacks and then look at the clock and realize it’s only 930 am

Hmm
Totally agree, @POTUS! I’m writing the bill right now. We must stop taxpayer money from going to insurance companies and instead give it directly to Americans in HSA-style accounts and let them buy the health care they want. This will increase competition & drive down costs.

Wow, now Republicans are talking about their ideas to restructure the health care system! I bet that will REALLY make Democrats think the shutdown was a political mistake.
.@POTUS is 100% correct, and @SenRickScott is exactly the right Senator to draft the legislation. No one knows more about healthcare than Rick.

YouTubeTV losing F1 this weekend over a carriage fight after all the price hikes is unconscionable. What’s the point of being a multi-trillion dollar company if you are just as shit as the littles.

This is Karl Polanyi’s “final disembedding," the economy untethered from the social body that created it https://t.co/JU1O0T7web. We've bifurcated into the "real" (labor) economy and the asset economy, and it's not going great for the labor economy.
2028 will be won by whoever recognizes first that there is not a single economic indicator that even slightly correlates with how the average american family experiences the economy, and optimizing for the former at the cost of the latter will destroy you

There’s a cadre of Republicans preparing for a post-trump future and it isn’t one that is tech-friendly
You taxi on the runway for two hours but tech (and other) companies will still be getting their H1Bs approved.

Because this is just shamelessly made up horseshit from Russian war propaganda that has nothing to do with reality, maybe that’s why?

preview of 2028:
Reporter: VP Vance called the court order absurd. Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on

When you deport or scare away the labor force of this industry, costs rise.
