The officer who fatally hit her, who was going 3x the speed limit and not continuously sounding his siren as required, and who had other collisions on his record, "received a traffic citation for negligent driving and paid a $5,000 fine."
"'She is dead,'" Officer Auderer told Officer Solan, before bursting out laughing.
"'No, it’s a regular person,' Officer Auderer said, adding: 'Yeah, just write a check — $11,000. She was 26, anyway. She had limited value.'"

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

This is an exciting opportunity for me to flog one of my least favorite "intellectual" devices: tu quoque fallacy.
One of the ways to identify bad faith is to cite what a person has previously done in opposition to their claimed beliefs. Tu quoque forbids this. You're a sucker if you accept that.

French philosopher and novelist Jean-Paul Sartre said fascists "delight in acting in bad faith." We're seeing that today, just as Sartre saw it a century ago.

Do economists hear themselves? "You should absolutely trust the jobs number that you got today that included the revisions to previous job numbers that showed that they were uniformly lower than originally reported for the entirety of last year."
Be serious.

It is not the most unreasonable thing in the world to distrust this morning's jobs numbers when the same people who compiled them also acknowledged having gotten last year's jobs numbers wrong by more than 800,000 (and always in a way that benefitted Trump).

It is wild seeing people assuming the 130,000 number is accurate given the simultaneous admission that last year's books were deeply massaged if not outright cooked.
With revisions, the +130,000 jobs in January is actually the best of the Trump's term. He didn't have a single month over +100,000 in 2025, with 3 months of job losses.
Also Biden is no longer the only president ever to have positive jobs numbers every month of his tenure. Jan '25 is now negative.

It's worth noting that this standard - parents can do whatever they want to their children - extends WELL beyond Texas's boundaries. It's largely a cultural belief that is only violated in the most extreme circumstances (which, we now know, excludes this particular circumstance).
A MAGA freak in Texas murdered his own daughter in cold blood after they had an argument about Trump.
A grand jury in the Dallas area then *declined to indict him*, and he has not yet faced charges.
Seems like many Texans believe a man has the right to kill his own child for disobedience.

Some economists on this site LOVE to tell the rest of us that Trump's government isn't fooling around with the jobs numbers, but surely this is enough to be at least a LITTLE bit suspicious?
Anna Wong: On jobs—We are expecting about 666k downward revisions to March 2025 payrolls level as part of the annual benchmarking. After all that's done (including birth and death model update in the post benchmark period), we expect Dec 2025 to see a downward revision near 1 mn.
