This is why a Democratic wave in 2026 is so important. They can only ooze contempt because they know that the Republicans in Congress are content to see GOP authoritarianism and executive rule by presidential decree.
3/ Michael Bloomberg has given three billion $$ to one small institution (Johns Hopkins) in recent years to make it need-blind for undergraduates and tuition free for medical students. Surely preserving independent national statistics is as useful to society as much the philanthropy done today.
2/ Could a private organization produce credible statistics, not fully replicating what the BLS does, but credibly independent information about some of the most important things we want to know about the labor market and prices.
A $2B endowment would throw off roughly $100m per year.

Yes, another excellent point. But I'm going to continue spitballing for a bit.
What if the BLS does get degraded and/or turned into a house organ of the GOP, but the nation does not go full totalitarian of the Soviet sort where all truth and news is contained in Pravda and Izvestia.

Russia's "open window" policy at work again.
If anyone knows where any of the bodies are buried or has any dirty information about Putin then they had better have a plan to evacuate to Sweden before the next open window trips them up ...

Tuberville wins the "Tuberville Award" for the week. The award was named after the Alabama senator and it celebrates the most inane thing a politician in DC said during the prior week.
Sen. Tuberville remains the single most frequent recipient of his namesake award ...

That’s a good point. But, it does presume that the same sorts of statistics couldn’t be collected at lower cost by a private nonprofit agency. 😉
2/ ... made up of a group drawn from the nation's best social scientists. Its employee base could replicate the non-partisan expertise we currently find in federal statistical agencies that heretofore have been havens of excellence devoted to factual documentation of the economy.
Could independence AND adequate funding be meshed if someone endowed a private non-profit to replicate the statistical collection and reporting that agencies like the BLS currently do? Such a non-profit could be chartered to be independent of the donor, with a private non-partisan oversight board
Are planes still landing? Are we just in "maintain visual separation" mode?
2/ One thing I can't quite figure out about this fake citation stuff. One should never put a citation into a paper unless something specific about that article winds up in your paper. One should never simply dump lots of parenthetical citations into your work just to pretend you've read stuff.
Is there a systematic way to search to see if someone has hallucinated a citation to an article you did not write?
Because he seems to be the actual president? They roll out the elected president occasionally so he can utter demented word salad to serve Miller's agenda, like perverting the US military, including its officers, and debasing it in the eyes of progressives and moderates in order to foment civil war.
He sounds far worse than anyone's crackpot uncle bloviating at the dinner table, and nobody would have been content to see uncle so-and-so with the power to give commands affecting millions of peoples' lives.
At what point does the governor of Oregon call out his own guard to protect peaceful citizens on the streets of Portland?
3/ shredded in making stuff "free."
This is where the fiscal costs are, but they are less than making tuition zero for everyone.
Retains benefit of targeting (less cost) while reducing complexity for students and families, especially 1st generation students who don't fully understand the process.

2/ via the tax authority directly to families.
Framework is 1st dollar, so Pell money isn't taxed away. Students can repurpose it for other COA, unlike TN Promise and NY Excelsior. Progresssive, not regressive.
The state makes up ALL lost tuition revenue so that institutional revenues aren't

Just sent it to your email.
In brief, the state switches roles with schools. The state does the primary discounting, anchoring tuition at zero for low-income families. This gets one of the main benefits of free college -> clear info to families while their kids are young.

Would you like to see my cockamamie idea for how to re-finance higher ed in Virginia? It would look very different.
Let me look right into the camera and spout a Goebbels'-style big lie!
3/ them any compensation. The "hurricane" they're facing is coming from the fevered mind of Trump.
2/ taxes produce the same impact as big export taxes. They both raise the relative price of importable goods, which is the same as lowering the relative price of exportables like field crops. For rural red farmers, this is a GOP-induced policy disaster, not something for which the entire nation owes
And Democrats need to line up against any farm bailout using tariff revenue or any other revenue source (it's fungible). The administration's trade policy is designed to punish lower income consumers of basic goods, but as any trade economist (not named Navarro) could have told them, big import
Don't forget to mention "and they feared Glamdring and Orcrist."
At what point does a governor order his own guard not to enter another state to do the president's illegal bidding?
Examples like this should lead to multi-million dollar lawsuits.
