Don Lemon is so incredibly vacuous, he doesn’t deserve a response, but I do want to ask — what does he think “predicate” means in this sentence? Cuz it’s not a word that makes any sense where he’s using it

When sellers’ inflation hits its limits: “The world’s largest food and drinks companies have said that poorer consumers in the US are cutting their spending in the face of persistent price rises, in a sign that the lowest earners are bearing the brunt of sticky US inflation.”
i couldn’t agree with this more. elon musk has been terrible for a long time. where were all his newfound critics when it could have made a difference?
every acquisition announcement from a tech company
When the startup I worked for was acquired (twice) we all joined a zoom call where they talked about all the “synergies” the merge was going to create. Turns out the “synergies” meant laying of like 20% of the workforce and killing all our products.

Let's be clear about what happened. The Voting Rights Act was put in place to stop racist whites from gerrymandering Black ppl out of representation. Two Trump appointees just said that requirement of the VRA violates the Equal Protection Clause by discriminating against whites.

David spits truth
"If we levied a 13% annual tax on the endowments of just the top 24 universities, after a decade we would surpass $1 trillion in yearly tax revenue...each school’s endowment would still grow over that period, on average by 764%...we could educate 15 million young people a year"

Maybe the first question should be, why are universities invested in *anything* to the degree they are? A hedge fund with a college attached serves nobody but the malefactors of great wealth.

The government of Israel is run by people who will likely be international fugitives in the near future for their war crimes. And American politicians not only want to continue to support that foreign government but will extraordinarily repress their own people over it.
So-called liberal institutions--the press, universities-- failing so rapidly and so totally does not bode well for their long-term success in fighting of the authoritarianism they keep warning is in the wings. Authoritarianism is here, and they are too often accomplices.
Instead of all this, Columbia could simply not invest in Lockheed Martin and other companies profiting off occupation and genocide.

Not for nothing, but Ivy League administrators threatened international students in exactly the same way and even used the same “your visa is at risk” scare tactics when graduate student workers fought for (and eventually won) their right to form a union.
It's true that student protests on US campuses have long looked like the current one: against Vietnam War, Iraq War, US support for South Africa, etc. The difference is those were critical of US Govt. The ones now are critical of Israel, for which there's far less tolerance.

@musharbash_b I think you are misunderstanding. He isn't saying at all what you are saying he is saying. He is saying the core of civil rights protest was nonviolence. This is accurate.
Can’t sleep because of *gestures widely* so I guess I’ll start the new Erik Larson book. Maybe the actual civil war will put things in perspective.
Someone accused me of posting something “for clicks” on Twitter. I would never.
aaron, i have read it. i have been politically engaged for over a decade now. i was so engaged during trump's presidency i was constantly thinking about it and doing what i could to fight against it. i am fully aware of what trump is capable of, of course do not want him to win.
@varsha_venkat_ i'd encourage you to read this interview where Trump discusses his agenda in his own words. stripping rights. rounding people up. ending free and fair elections. siding with authoritarians abroad. exacerbating income inequality. the list goes on and on. time.com/6972021/donald…
i miss when we invaded Iraq, and occasionally, you saw the old hippies protesting while everyone else (right and left) had american flags on their cars. i miss those old hippies, the consistency was unmatched
@musharbash_b weird use of predicate.... what an idiot
@musharbash_b We weren’t kidding about Making America Great Again.
@musharbash_b He even appears to be wearing a suit that fits him. He seems to be getting serious. That's good.
@dd_Angus @musharbash_b Now, two Trump appointees struck it down saying that adding the second district, which was required by the federal courts because of the prior racial gerrymandering, is an unconstitutional racial gerrymander.
@dd_Angus @musharbash_b No. Louisiana gerrymandered to get a 5-1 map. Plaintiffs sued under the VRA pointing out that the map discriminated against Black Louisianans. Louisiana lost. CA5 affirmed their loss. The LA Legislature created the new map to implement the court ruling.
@musharbash_b Did you see this New Yorker feature about him? It isn’t exactly “flattering,” but it doesn’t describe him as stupid or incompetent. newyorker.com/magazine/2024/…
@musharbash_b @Jawshu i think he means a noun: the thing on which something else is predicated X is the predicate of Y if "Y is predicated on X" (that doesn't appear to be an accepted usage)
@musharbash_b He was just trying to use a ten-dollar word
@dd_Angus @musharbash_b That sounds nice. But you're arguing that the judiciary should drop any and all notions of race after a legislature passed a racially discriminatory map that violates a federal statute. It's just a bad argument. If legislatures don't racially gerrymander, we avoid this problem.
@musharbash_b @AnnMLipton Thank you for letting me corporolawsplain to you!! 😁
the student uprisings of the 1960s were considerably more violent than anything you are seeing today. it is not close. students at kent state burned the ROTC building to the ground. when black students took over a building at cornell in 1969, they did it **with guns**
i really can't stress how useful it would be for people in political media to occasionally, from time to time, read a book
“Peaceful non violence” was the predicate of the Civil Rights Movement. Taking over a building and destroying property feels January 6th ish to me. 🤷🏽♂️
@musharbash_b @AnnMLipton This is why strine etc get away with saying “if you really care about your shareholders - who are diversified into the entire economy - maybe maximizing sh value occasionally means not moving overseas and laying everyone off”
@musharbash_b @AnnMLipton My sense is that in Delaware “the interests of diversified shareholders” is like saying “the interests of no one” or “the public interest” (skewed wealthy). They’re not just invested in particular competitors, but Eg in an index fund.
