Republicans said no revenue raisers (i.e. higher taxes on the rich), only non-military spending cuts, in the debt ceiling deal and then one of if not the biggest deficit reducer in the deal is a tax on non-wealthy families (resuming student loan payments)

Man gets locked out of own apartment. Calls for help. Fire dept comes and lets him in. Cops show up later, see him holding butter knife, taze and then murder him. Investigators watch video, call man a perpetrator, and clear cops of any wrongdoing. propublica.org/article/nypd-k…

Doing gods work
Our position has been consistent and clear: [total gibberish that contradicted all prior remarks]
Great write-up from @EricLevitz on the Republican work requirement scam. This isn't about being "fiscally conservative" or really even about valuing work -- the goal here is to weaken (and make less popular) programs and supports + send less $ directly to the people who need it.
If Republicans actually wanted to make the food stamps program more "work-friendly," they could prevent recipients who enter paid work-training programs from seeing their benefits fall. But their goal is to cut spending on the poor, not promote work. nymag.com/intelligencer/…
Between 2013 and 2021, New York raised its minimum wage by 72% in inflation-adjusted terms, an unprecedentedly large increase. Many economists predicted that this yield massive job losses. A new study indicates it actually spurred job *growth* nymag.com/intelligencer/…
I can finally say it: I settled the bet early with @balajis! Took some time to work out the details but he proceeded in good faith and you can see the receipt of funds on chain in the next tweet. $500k to me (so I get 30% post tax as planned) and 500k to @GiveDirectly
Fast forward, and revenue is way, way, way lower than CBO projected, because of tax cuts. But the really interesting thing? Spending projections are *also* much lower. On average, primary spending is down almost 1.5 percentage points of GDP, relative to those projections.
My first report from @amprog is out! It's why I think fair analysis would say debt/GDP is rising due to tax cuts and NOT spending. First, the big (and true) claim: without the Bush tax cuts, their extensions, & Trump tax cuts, debt/GDP would be declining. americanprogress.org/article/tax-cu…
Fake arguing with your coach to distract the defense before throwing a half-look pass for a reverse alley-oop to break a 92-92 tie in the final minute of OT in a Sweet 16 game at MSG might be the coolest shit I’ve ever seen
