«”I have one client who said, ‘Well, they don’t know that I live in Florida,'” recalls Fitzhenry. “I said, ‘Where do you file your tax returns?’ He says, ‘In Florida.'”
Fitzhenry chuckles. “That’s a tough sell.”»
I’m reading the news (Trump wanting to make Canada a state again, American troops patrolling Washington D.C., USPS blocking vote by mail, incredible deficits, beef prices and tariffs going up and down, Trump falling in love with every dictator entering the room), and I’m thinking, “Why isn’t ‘Are you tired of government by social media?’ a more common campaign slogan?”
Are people not actually tired of government by social media? (I mean… enough people.)
Man, this headline just irks me. Let’s see if I can fix it.
“After decades of increasing deficits, Washington is facing some unpalatable choices”
How is that “starving the government until it’s small enough to drown in a bathtub” working, Grover Norquist? Are we there yet? Are we ready to cut Social Security and Medicare (more)? Are you ready to say this was the plan all along?

«If you bother to look at the funding sources of Third Way — those that have been made public, that is (Third Way is structured as a 501(c)(4) social welfare organization that’s not legally required to publicly disclose its donors) — you’ll find a Star Wars cantina of billionaire megadonors, Fortune 500 CEOs, corporate dark money bundlers, and giant corporations.
Odd that The New York Times chooses to describe Third Way as a “leading Democratic centrist group” without revealing that it’s simply a Trojan Horse for corporate America.»
One clown down. I guess now the Republicans can get back to their more normal quiet racism.

Well THIS seems like a really bad idea. (Why am I sharing another Bulwark article?)
Congratulations to Kansas for holding on to a good thing. I wish we had this system in North Carolina.
