This is trash. Weāve moved from āfire people who celebrate murderā to āfire people who explicitly condemn murder but express opinions I dislike.ā Illiberal snowflakery. Get a grip.
This is Laina Marie Pea a Master Sergeant in the US Air Force. She recently made some awful remarks about Charlie Kirkās death. We have a lack of discipline in our current military ranks. This needs to get fixed ASAP.

Using actually comparable questions over time from @PRL_Tweets there has been no change in support for political violence. Even if that weren't true, @ProfessorPape has no evidence (or research design) to connect any changes in opinion to the horrendous acts of violence (in

These are video game and furry memes. I cannot believe how irresponsible the WSJ was in blasting out a speculative claim that the bullets were inscribed with "transgender and antifascist ideology"(?) as news. A catastrophic failure that could have real and lasting consequences.

In June we had a Democratic state legislator assassinated in Minnesota and another shot by a guy with a list of other victims ā Kirk's shooting is hideous and awful and this rising tide of violence is terrifying, but anyone calling it one-sided is lying to you.

What a total humiliation for the US. ICE is so unsophisticated and Noem so unqualified that I suspect they didnāt even do any research. They saw Asian people and arrested.

This essentially is sending #autism discussions back sixty years back to the days when society blamed unloving mothers for their children becoming #ActuallyAutistic. It's going to inflict endless guilt among moms across the country.

Gosh Iād love to see data on rates of return demanded by apartment investors for projects subset by state. Unless this measure gets absolutely hammered at polls, wonāt it further poison rental housing investment in blue states?
The NIMBY nuclear option is on the table for voters in Massachusetts: Rent control capping rents at inflation or 5%, whichever is lower. Developers tend to like the Boston MSA, but will obviously have a lot of trouble raising capital for deals there if this passes.

Housing policy is super interesting but this feels like a very important & less discussed point - a lot of desirable single-family housing in major metro areas is owned by empty nester boomers and will be on the market within the next decade

Yes it costs a lot of money, but thatās because a lot of people are willing to pay a lot to spend time in a nice place where they donāt need a car, can walk eveywhere, and their kids will be safe & have fun Not sure thereās anything deeper here than that

People in more elite SES demographics like to pile on Disney but itās actually a very high-trust bubble with tremendous āpublicā transit, and compact and walkable pedestrian areas that are accessibility friendly itās also free of guns because of tight security
I went to Disney with my oldest and my mother just after Covid. The Disney hotel we stayed at when I was a kid had replaced the beautiful fountain and pianist in the lobby with a massive bar area that was already packed at 3pm. We havenāt gone back, mainly because itās sad. A
