“Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.” Benjamin Franklin

This is what happens when people mistake a board game for an economics education.
Monopoly has a fixed amount of wealth, no innovation, no investment, no productivity growth, and no new businesses. Capitalism has spent centuries doing precisely what Monopoly cannot, creating wealth that didn't previously exist.
The richest people in 1900 couldn't buy an antibiotic, a smartphone, or a commercial flight. Today, ordinary people have access to things kings couldn't have imagined.
Monopoly is a game about acquiring existing assets. Capitalism is an economic system that allows people to create entirely new ones.
If your understanding of economics comes from passing Go and collecting $200, perhaps sit this one out.

Voters: We just want normal
Biden: I’m the next FDR
Voters: how about a normal economy
Trump: I’ll throw the system of global trade into chaos and annex Greenland
Voters: Normal. All we ask
Democrats: Show trials for billionaires and massive new entitlements

The incoming Chair of House Oversight was born in Peru, came here and illegally overstayed his visa, got amnesty, and now compares himself to a horror clown who preys on children.

Trump and his political team have managed to do what the pre-Trump GOP never did — shrink the map of Republican states. Bush and Rove turned Texas red. Trump turned it blue. The pre-Trump GOP turned Georgia red. Trump turned it blue. But MAGA says we can't go back to winning.

No matter what the polls say, I will be shocked if Talarico wins Texas. Texans do not want his misogynistic trans ideology, and they’re sick of human traffickers and drug dealers pouring over the border. If Talarico does win, it will be a loud message from Texans to the GOP to pick candidates who don’t cheat on their wives.

Same guy said there's a "special place in hell reserved for quislings and cowards" in the Republican party who won't denounce Donald Trump.
Who knew "just be quiet" was a valid option!
Gov. @JBPritzker on the Haley Stevens’ switcheroo :
“Honestly, if you're not on board and supporting Democrats taking over the United States Senate, you should just be quiet. A vote for Mike Rogers is a vote for Donald Trump, and I just don't understand why she's done this.”

Behind the scenes, many Democrats privately complain that DSA-backed candidates are hurting the party. But when Haley Stevens takes a stand on an issue that I suspect most Democrats would agree with her on, they turn around and crucify her for it.
Regardless of party, people should be able to call out extreme views on either side without facing this level of vitriol.
I see basically universal denunciation of Haley Stevens from Democrats and liberal pundits—traitor, burn the witch, etc.—and honestly it's a bit much.
More politicians should feel comfortable saying "X person on my side is a bridge too far." Dems usually cheer this when GOP does this, it's Profiles in Courage or whatnot for the Liz Cheneys for the world.

For all you new IU fans, the 1967 team was known as the Cardiac Kids for their MO of winning close games on the way to the Rose Bowl.

Concerned about fascism so they're picking people at random to prosecute when they get power. To protect against fascism.
Kara Swisher adds DOGE's "Big Balls" to the Democrat target list.
"They could just pick a few people. To me, that's the way you go. You pick like a Hegseth, a Musk, and I don't know, Big Balls."
"Rather than go for Trump, go for everybody."
"Make it so broad that exhausts people who just do want to move on."
They're now just casually naming random people that did things they didn't like.
The ever-growing investigation wishlist now includes Trump family, donors, friends, supporters, allies and DOGE employees.
And it won't stop there.
