NEW PIECE: I'm very excited to bring the first part of a three part series digging deeper into my "Conventional Wisdom Processor" coinage. This was inspired by Paul Krugman's generous discussion of the phrase last month.

- If Kanye had lived his life like 30% different he could have been Jewish people's favorite comedian. The line delivery here is fantastic. My dad cracked up every time we watched it and we watched it like 8 times in a row.
- Reporter: “Are the airstrikes against the Houthis working?” Biden: “Well when you say ‘working’—are they stopping the Houthis? No. Are they going to continue? Yes.” This might be the most concise summary of U.S. foreign policy availableThis is utterly incredible
- Let me be crystal clear- as a jewish grandchild of holocaust survivors I am always on the side of the people imprisoned in Ghettos and not on the incredibly armed and modern army who serves as their jailers. You're not going to be able to bully me into another opinion.
- We Jews wonder why the world did nothing as the Nazis put us into concentration camps. Well there were not photos of the true conditions of the concentration camps in 1941, let alone photos every day. Every hour of every day. Livestreams. Yet people talk about college campuses.
- Could you imagine if Biden pulled a trillion dollar coin from behind Kevin McCarthy's ear on live television? It would be the greatest moment in American history.
- Make no mistake, the vast, vast majority of people who are angrily complaining about student debt cancellation have no idea what real people's lives are like. I have a competitive advantage in econ commentary because I personally know people over 30 who make less than 75k a year
- Imagine living under this. You wouldn't accept this for yourself, for your friends and family. We can't accept it for theirs either.Beirut now; they are carpet bombing the city. 100,000 people fled to Beirut from the South in search of safety
00:00 - Something I think far too many people have forgotten is the Nazis had not committed a genocide until they did. This sounds blindingly obvious but it's not. Because we think of the Nazis going backwards. We start from the Shoah. So we read about them in 1933 & think "genociders"
- It's wild how many of you think equal rights for Palestinians should be dependent on them having "appropriate" and "reasonable" thoughts towards the people who overwhelmingly don't care if they live or die (at minimum).
- "German Chancellor Adolph Hitler is examining a plan to seal off humanitarian aid to the Warsaw Ghetto in an attempt to starve out socialist & communist militants, a plan that could trap hundreds of thousands of Jews without food or water.Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is examining a plan to seal off humanitarian aid to northern Gaza in an attempt to starve out Hamas militants, a plan that could trap hundreds of thousands of Palestinians without food or water. apnews.com/article/hamas-…
- This might actually be what kills itElon Musk confirms that Twitter’s character limit will be raised from 280 to 4000 characters.
- Sorry, I am a single issue voter- no genocide. You support and back genocide to the hilt, no votes. And I'm not the only one and plenty like me are in swing states. Biden isn't going to be reelected, the only question now is whether you find a candidate who doesn't back genocide.
