Remarkable statistic:
Prior to Western Michigan, college football teams were 110,352 - 0 when leading after the end of regulation, dating back to 1869.

I love watching tennis.
I hate the tennis outfits at the USOpen this year.
They are largely hideous and garish for the wrong reasons. For men and women.
Alcaraz is a phenomenal athlete and so fun to watch but I can hardly stand to look at him in that poop colored see through mesh.
Nike has lost the plot.
When something is so ugly it’s distracting, there is a problem.

A Trump advisor just explained how the rich never pay tax.
Not loopholes.
Not “smart accounting.”
A feature of the system.
You work.
Every paycheck gets taxed.
They own stock.
It goes up for years.
They pay nothing.
Then a bank calls.
“Don’t sell. We’ll lend you millions against it. Tax-free.”
Buy a yacht.
Buy more assets.
Keep compounding.
Never trigger a sale.
Never pay capital gains.
David Friedberg said he didn’t fully get it until a European bank offered him the deal.
His reaction:
“This is what the rich do.”
He says fix it by taxing the loan like a sale.
Raise capital gains if you want.
But a wealth tax?
He calls that an asset seizure.
Unconstitutional.
The moment you start taking private property, the gates are open.
The poor get taxed on labor.
The rich get taxed when they feel like it.
That’s the system.

I seriously question how a person who thinks like this gets elected in a free capitalist society. Guess what Liz - ice cream prices go down then it gets cold.
Go Mark Cuban!
You don’t understand business Ro.
It doesn’t have to fail. Those entrepreneurs can bust their asses for the next 10 yrs. Create THOUSANDS OF JOBS, pay more than 250m taxes to the Feds and state over those 10 yrs.
BUT, never have 250m they can take out of the company. BECAUSE THEY ARE GROWING. Making them unable to pay back California their loan.
Is that what you want your state to be ?
Next tweet we can discuss who the money is going to with Prop 40.
-Like 122/3 over the last two games, and you give the Hoosiers this kind of red meat?
NEW: Purdue AD Tommy McClelland in his introductory press conference:

You can tell how smart someone is by how well they simplify things .. people who think they’re smart but really aren’t , complicate everything

A new poll finds 40% of respondents believe in a baseless conspiracy theory that the coronavirus was created in a lab in China.
There is zero evidence for this. Scientists say the virus was transmitted to humans from another species.

It’s exciting to see a real life trial of Socialism right before our very eyes.
A few very obvious points on Mamdani's grocery stores:
1. The supply of the discounted groceries will run out on day 1, and every day there is a new shipment. This is basic econ 101.
2. This means only the people who are lucky enough or fast enough will get these discounted groceries. Expect to see the city ration these groceries in some other way. By income, or neighborhood or some lottery system.
3. Grocery margins are notoriously low as it is (like 2-3%). These stores will lose a bunch of money selling 30% below market, or they'll sell so little it will be insignificant.
4. There is absolutely zero chance that government bureaucrats can source these products from global supply chains as efficiently as Walmart, or Meier, or Whole Foods, whose survival depends on it. Their costs will be far higher (unless they use government bludgeon to force distributors to sell to them at lower prices).
5. It's actually an incredible triumph of capitalism that you can get a pound of bananas that were shipped to your neighborhood from Equador for like 60 cents, or fresh grapes from Chile in the dead of Midwestern winter for 2 bucks a pound, and Norwegian salmon to cook in Italian olive oil for $15 -20 bucks or so. Truly stop and think about that for a minute. It's a miracle.
The median full time hourly wage is around $31 dollars. For ONE HOUR of work, the median working American can get all of the groceries listed below, which is about 22,000 calories. They can feed themselves for 10 days (or a family of 4 for around 2 and a half days), with an hour of labor.
This is the stupidest industry for socialists to go after.
