I'm a dad. I stan intermediate micro. I research how policy shapes markets, decisions, & outcomes in early childhood care & education.
This doesn’t suprise me at all. It has happened on every social media platform as has been well documented and studied and as you all know with every wave of bots and and blue waves and trolls and romance scammers I’ve been whispering kinda loudly for folks to worry about this…
ICE killed a father of three yesterday and no one is talking about it. /1
Early care & education services are spatially differentiated. Using cell-phone mobility data, we measure worker & consumer commutes in a novel way, at the provider level. Great working with @gabriellepepin.bsky.social, @jborowsky.bsky.social & Liz Davis. research.upjohn.org/cgi/viewcont...
I’m proud to have the endorsement of 10 out of 10 members of the Minneapolis House legislative delegation for my candidacy for Hennepin County Attorney.
No, see, "overruled 90 years of precedent in order to expand presidential power" is the way *critics* describe it. *Your* side says: resisting intrusion into core executive functions, protecting the sanctity of the separation of powers, and acknowledging that the precedent has been whittled away.

Did DoD just admit in a court filing that it used xAI's Grok Gov Model to hit the girls' school on the first day of the Iran war? Based on some passages flagged by @rgoodlaw.bsky.social in DoD's recent filing in NAACP's case against X, it looks like it did 1/
"We are party to a services agreement with a security company owned by Mr. Musk and organized to provide security services concerning him, .... $4 million for such security services in 2025, and $1 million for such security services from January 1, 2026 through February 28, 2026."!
SpaceX's prospectus is WILD: "We believe we have identified the largest actionable total addressable market (“TAM”) in human history" Fascinatingly, very little of the projected market is space-related. 90% of it (26.5T/28.5T) is AI. "Our AI business is in a relatively early stage"
So... I wonder what the founders would think about the fact that our constitutional institutions have deteriorated so far that Congress is now getting lectures about checks and balances from the King of England.
@jd-vance-1.bsky.social I would like to debate you on whether the Iran war can be justified under Just War theory in the Catholic intellectual tradition. Please have your people reach out to arrange the particulars. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
This discriminatory death penalty law moves Israel further from the Jewish and democratic values on which it was founded – and from the core values of American Jews. 1/3
Trump isn't just contending that a narrower interpretation of the Citizenship Clause is preferable. He is saying there is a class of persons without rights, the aim of every authoritarian throughout history. Further, he argues that he has the unreviewable power to decide who is in that class.
Republican negotiation: Fund ICE or we'll defund food stamps. Dems: Okay you win. Dem negotiation: Reform ICE or we'll defund airport security. Republicans: No. Also, give me your shirt, loser. Dems: OK lets fund airport security. Can I put out a press release saying I am a tough and strong?

"[L]ight the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon" is one of the more coherent theories of the Iran war that the administration has offered so far.
Let's try this again 👋 Hi Bluesky - I'm Massachusetts' Attorney General. You might know me from suing President Trump nearly 50 times, beating Uber and Lyft in court, or being the first woman of color elected to statewide office in MA. I officially left X today - help me find my MA people?
These 2 kids detained last week were brought back to MN today. But school officials say many others from the Columbia Heights district are missing. They're not sure if they're in ICE detention or have moved away with their families. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Hey Chuck, I know the Baileys. They are solidly on board with abolishing ICE at this point. Eileen is driving her friend Luisa's mom to chemo and calls me up to say she's just aghast at how scared she is.
still feels like folks outside of MN are kind of not getting it: our state has been under attack for over a month, and the resistance is being organized by literally your regular old neighbors and coworkers and friends.
