We should only fund research that will have huge impact and not fund research that won't. Fortunately, these are easy to distinguish.

"Mr. President, we have successfully infiltrated the Edina Hockey Parents Facebook group and it is yielding us a ton of information on the agitators and their leftist networks."
Miller: "In MN, the insurrectionists are confronting our officers on the street. They're being arrested. This is a natl security priority. Arrests of insurrectionists are made every day, and each provide us an opportunity to learn about the network from a law enforcement & natl security standpoint"

You ran over 1000 simulations to see what a dinner that was a piece of piece of chicken and almost nothing else might cost?
Brooke Rollins: "We've run over 1,000 simulations. It can cost around $3 a meal for a piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, corn tortilla, and one other thing. So there is a way to do this that actually will save the average American consumer money."

This actually appears to be a very clever strategy.
Quit talking about Trump. Address everything, every issue to Miller and Vought. Make Trump irrelevant, his ego will not let him be out of the spotlight and you’ll see Miller and Vought removed and the rest of the administration collapse.

If there's one empirical insight I'd want everyone to understand about American politics, it's this:
America's problems are solved problems. Just not here.
What would change if the US simply matched the average of 31 peer democracies? Not Denmark or Norway. Just the middle of the pack. 🧵
