Good morning! My book, Chains of Command: The Rise and Cruel Reign of the Franchise Economy now has a beautiful cover, and a release date: April 20th. So you'll have something to enjoy with your 4/20 Taco Bell order.

It’s still surreal to me how Mamdani gets smeared and pressed to denounce things he never said, while Tuberville, Ogles, and Fine recycle Goebbels-tier demographic conspiracy rhetoric and it barely registers.
Tuberville: “We just saw what happened in NY. We lost NY. It will be completely Muslim in 3-4 years. That’s what they want. And it’s going to spread throughout the country.”

@MikeFellman When the problem is apparently more homes need to be built, and everything EXCEPT directly building more homes is proposed, you have to wonder if anyone truly believes that the problem is real.

I’m guessing Fiorello LaGuardia’s haters sounded just like this. (I do wonder what his machine-hack critics inside the city sounded like, probably like Eric Adams?)

Hey guys, turns out the psychotic criminals who infested the labor movement, allied with bosses, and drove out the socialists, communists, and honest trade unionists (with government help) don't like socialism and communism
COSA NOSTRA of my era - 60’s, 70’s, 80’s…. Would NOT be happy with Mamdani as Mayor! Cosa Nostra is not Marxist or socialist. We would have not allowed him to be elected. Agree? Disagree? Weigh in!!

Very true. Murder and drug trafficking gangs have always been anti-socialist. Throughout Italian history local landlords and capitalists would hire the Mafia to assasinate union leaders and Communist Party members. Same with the right wing narco-paramilitaries in Colombia.

Quite the week to come across this book dedication, the day before the BLS failed to collect unemployment data for the first time in 77 years.

Virginia Democrats have flipped enough seats that they can vote to repeal "right to work" and dare Spanberger to veto it.
