    Jerry Brown retires as the most successful governor in modern US history. When he was elected in 2010, California had a $27B deficit and was considered ungovernable. Now it has $16B in reserves and is booming. What did Brown do right? He taxed the rich.

    For me, it is Ron Chernow's Hamilton. The extent of political hyperpolarization, fake news, intrigue, even potential treason in the 1790s and early 1800s was astonishing. Gives me faith that we will survive the current moment.

    This is grotesque and anyone who condones it (looking at you, Congressional GOP) should be ashamed One of my first big Atlantic reporting projects, in 1980, among Vietnamese immigs in Houston, Louisiana, LA—w tales of real hardship behind them, and mainly huge success since then

    Holy shit. Trump wants to deport refugees from the VIETNAM WAR.

    Economist Julie Nelson: "Economic dogmas, misleadingly presented as scientific and widely disseminated through education and the media, are largely to blame for this damage. The field of economics is far overdue for an thorough-going ethical wake-up call."

    Paul Ryan’s project to “balance the budget” was always a ruse to explode the deficit with corporate tax cuts + endless war. Ryan continues his abdication of economic + moral responsibility with his war in Yemen, curtailing of Congressional power, & imperiling countless children.

    This is why people hate Congress. is not allowing a vote on my resolution to stop the war in Yemen because many Republicans will vote with us and he will lose the vote. He is disgracing Article 1 of the Constitution, and as a result, more Yemnini children will die.

    This is one of the *worst* ideas in democracy. We need experienced public servants. When you delete them just as they’re getting up to speed, you get well-meaning n00bs being manipulated by the well-funded career lobbyists who know the system/issues. Next idea, please.

    Term limits. We need term limits for Congress. If you haven't kept up with the fundamentals of technology, you haven't kept up with the fundamentals of society. You're not a public servant anymore. Next, please.

    This is a bad story, amplifying the message of a lobbyist and repeating discredited anti-cloud FUD from 2008. Old-school contractors throwing up this kind of chaff is why USG can't build modern IT. should be ashamed they got played like this.
