The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.

The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets.

Chinese Employees: We invented 996 as a way to call out and criticize an exhausting, dehumanizing work culture

Tech Company: At long last we have created 996
The term “996” became widely used in China as a way to call out and criticize an exhausting, dehumanizing work culture—especially in tech—rather than to celebrate it

Genuinely unable to grasp the concept of soft power, with disastrous effects
Norwegian PM Støre says Trump repeatedly raises—complains about, pleads for, and demands—the Nobel Peace Prize every time they meet. Støre gives same answer each time: decision is made independently by Norwegian Nobel Committee, with no role for Norwegian gov—a concept Trump appears unable to grasp.

Kirk briefly said the true thing that Miami and ND might both get in if Bama doesn’t show signs of life. Naturally they had to spend the next 10 min cleaning that up.

Hard not to feel for RFK Jr today. The man wasted some top notch erotic poetry on someone whose only criteria for sleeping with him was that he was the subject of a profile.

I suppose I should make a prediction, this is the most confident I've been heading into an election since 2019. I just don't think that people like any of this shit.

Juan Gonzalez has 2 MVPs and only 3 All Star appearances, and one of the MVPs was in a year without an All Star appearance.

American citizens are being overcharged for their health care and we're all lucky Rick Scott is in government to fix it.

Google "Rick Scott overcharge health care government" for more information on how he will address this problem.
Ron Johnson: "Let's bring free market competition back into the healthcare industry. Let's bring back way more consumer choice. Rick Scott, an expert in healthcare, he's working with people like myself and the White House, let's design the Republican plan."

Honestly, this convinced me. I have become a single issue voter on the basis of which party treats the Capitol police with the respect they deserve.

Now I'm just going to take a big sip of coffee and start my research...
Mike Johnson: "They berated a Capitol police officer, screamed at him. He was merely standing his post. It shows, again, their disdain for law enforcement, the Democrats, screaming, assaulting officers."

Going for 2 down 8 has led to exactly 2 wins in the history of the NFL.

Hear me out: what if simple probability models lead to bad decision-making in professional football?
Stop going for 2 down 8
What if the analytics people are flat out wrong?
