We've got 1 more Moe Tkacik banger in us before the end of the year.
It's about Marco Rubio, his scheme to appoint drug cartel bosses & their cronies atop the governments of every Latin American country in the name of fighting drug cartels, & his high school summer job working for a drug trafficker.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

I don’t think Dem politicians should take advice from online marketers like Matt Yglesias, who have no experience in campaigns/elections.
But if they are gonna interact with the drivel produced by Matty’s clickbait content farm, this lawmaker shows how they should do it 👇

This Yglesias piece in the NYT is horrifically bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/o...

This isn't hyperbole. In 2023, I watched Cigna revoke approval for my friend Carole's life-saving lung transplant *minutes* before surgery was set to begin—a decision that very nearly killed her.
Public outrage in response to a viral post about her situation is the only reason she's alive today.
