A shocking number of people responding to this video clearly did not watch the video. David is extremely opposed to the Trump administration's terrorization of immigrant communities. He is describing serious problems with the current laws which make accountability difficult.

We have actual fiscal constraints. I'm not saying Democrats should run on raising taxes for middle class and upper middle class people but...at some point we need revenue to do things that are good and this tax revolt shit is terrible.

I really can't get over these quotes from @booker.senate.gov "The Democratic Party has got to get its act together and stop thinking that if a whole idea comes forward, it means all the other important things donβt get done." In fact this is what it means in this space!

Yes. So much of the practice includes a lot of repetitive tasks that I can speed up now. My best guess is that it's actually gotten better on the substantive stuff and time spent with clients guiding them.

Democrats win 53 Senate seats and 270 House seats and McConnell, Young, Thune, et al start looking around and wondering what they're saving? There is some space for a cascade in GOP at that point I think.

Before this war Democrats had a 40% chance at taking the Senate. Up to 44% now. This is nonsense. If gas prices get to and stay at $5 I'd say 53 seats is more likely than 50.

My actual hope is that AI can help actual lawyers create a world where we have civil Gideon as a reality and then maybe there is both a requirement for an attorney and for the provision of one.

I think the law from the NY Senate seemed really bad and overbroad and had real first amendment issues. Also think that while AI powered pro se litigants are a problem, non-AI powered pro se litigants are also a problem (in a different way).

Population of countries in big 5 soccer leagues in Europe is about the same as the US and there are 98 top flight teams with about 25 players each. Honestly NFL and college top flight might get closer on economics.

I feel like Trump impeachment and removal scenarios in 2027 continue to be underpriced. Itβs all it will never happen theyβre too afraid and MAGA until JD Vance works with some senators to snake him after an impeachment and Trump is at 29% approval and they all want to move on.

One crazy thing is that while Democrats only flipped 4 senate seats (and got to 61 but solid south was still real) they nearly got to 65 and lost 4 very close races. Meanwhile they won the house popular vote by 17 a swing of 11 points from 1972.

Right. I sort of imagine the Rbob to retail spread grows with non energy inflation at pretty consistent rates since itβs like labor, goods, land etc that makes up the cost structure of retail and distribution.
