A thread on how I was apparently accused of treason because I once worked at Mercatus advocating for the repeal of the Jones Act. It really makes you suspicious of the special interest groups fighting to keep the Jones Act intact...

It’s not every day you find a government document calling for @CatoInstitute employees to be charged with treason... It seems we’ve touched a nerve. A #CatoTrade 🧵...

I wrote my persuasive essay in my college composition class on the Fair Tax. That was over 10 years ago now. People acting like this is a brand new thing is insanity to me.

I've covered the FairTax for almost 25 years - this is something to see. Top Democrats (plus Biden) ripping GOP plans to abolish the IRS and replace it with a 30 percent national sales tax. Schumer: "It shows you how extreme these MAGA Republicans are."

And the article does have actual relevant information but is bookended with salacious and tabloid-level reporting about 20somethings going to a strip club and possibly drinking. It was gross enough to cancel my subscription.

The weirdest part of this is the reporter acting like he just published a prize winning article that's ruffled feathers. These facts do not warrant an article with a "Why are we writing this story?" disclaimer at the end.

My parents basically beg me to move back home anytime it’s possible. I’ve been living with my grandparents for 2 years, and still stay with my parents fairly often.

Tonight’s win marks the Hawks’ 200th win over the New York Knicks in franchise history. The 200 wins are the second-most wins by the club against a single opponent in franchise history (Detroit, 216).

Drove thru griffin to my hair appt and it is insane down here. Every other red light is out. Power lines laying all over the roads.
Called my mom and told her to get off the road bc she was about to get into griffin right when the tornado was going thru. She told me lots of power lines and trees down there.

I drove all the way to Athens last night. Saw the lines for the bars and turned myself right around. I got to experience it once and last night watching it on my best friend’s couch was just as sweet.

Having a best friend I’ve known since kindergarten is so underrated. And we live less than 10 minutes from each other.
my friends are overly invested in my dating life and one told me i should keep a big excel spreadsheet so we can do a wrapped at the end of the year
Got to watch the Falcons get 1 of 2 wins in the same building a little over 12 hours apart, both finalized with a FG attempt at this goal post:
At a small party where everyone is married with kids except me and one guy. Bets on whether we end up kissing at midnight —>
