The indirect benefits of free lunches

Screenshot of a tweet taken from yet another social network but summarize that it is a note to summarize a quote of a quote here a paper from the National Bureau of economic research showing a result that free lunch programs reduce the amount that parents spend at grocery stores which makes grocery stores cut their prices because demand is down and so everyone in the area gets lower grocery prices

VP yesterday: Trump “separated families. Ripped toddlers out of their mothers’ arms … tried to end protections for Dreamers. He made the challenges at the border worse. And he is still fanning the flames of fear and division … That is not the work of a leader. That is an abdication of leadership.”

The fundamental reality of American politics is that only the Democratic Party is a (small-d) democratic party. Pretending otherwise depends entirely on ignoring what Republicans have been doing with power wherever they are in charge - and openly vow to do with power in the future.

All we really know is that the race is polling a lot closer than we would like for it to be, and if you’re anxious or mad about that you’re better served personally and politically by volunteering for the campaign than you are picking through data on a Saturday morning.

Normies generally don’t know that there’s a clean energy revolution going on and that 95% of the power capacity installed in the US this year will be zero emissions. 💡🔌

~11 months ago, Hezbollah began daily rocket & other attacks on Israeli towns, internally displacing ~2.5% of Israel's population. I said then that when Israel eventually began responding in earnest, people who had nothing to say about the fire would react to the response. I hate being right

It’s the battleground state with the most electoral votes, so by at least one definition the most important

I know everyone says this but it's just wild that there's this massive infrastructure devoted to pretending that Trump speaks like a functional adult
