    A gem from Prof. Heckman, discussing the origins of his intellectual interests and contributions to economics: “the pursuit of the prosaic is often the seed of the profound.”

    Wow. It ain't everyday you get to hear Prof. Akerlof and Prof. Heckman speak live. Big thanks to the Young Scholars Initiative for all of the fantastic events this past year <3 So, so happy I found this network.

    If Republicans have suddenly begun to deeply value and prioritize bipartisanship in Washington, they can start by supporting $2k checks and retroactive unemployment for people. Then it will be bipartisan 🌞

    Setting a new tone and work ethic right from the start. That’s how it’s done!

    There is no time to waste when it comes to tackling the crises we face. That's why today, I am heading to the Oval Office to get right to work delivering bold action and immediate relief for American families.

    GOP lawmakers who refuse to go through Capitol metal detectors only a week after the assault must not be allowed back into their offices. What kind of behavior is this from lawmakers? They have responsibilities to their fellow members of Congress.

    A private publisher dropping a book bc it disapproves of an author’s actions has nothing to do with the First Amendment. Either Hawley — who went to Yale Law and clerked for Justice Roberts — doesn’t know that. OR he has such disdain for you he’s lying with abandon.

    Let’s stop passing around memes of animal cosplay dude and focus on people like this guy, who’s clearly all business. Yeah, there were a bunch of fools in the mob, but also some people clearly intending to get violent. This guy is a terrorist, plain and simple.

    Showing up with zip ties is a clear indication you intended to take hostages. This is life in prison and nothing less.

    2 reasons for impeaching and removing Trump today: 1. Accountability. No president who incites an insurrection against the United States can remain in office. 2. Safety. Having done what he did yesterday, there's no limit to what he might try in the next 13 days.
