1. The Secretary of State (like POTUS, VP, SecWar, and others) is REQUIRED to use military aircraft to maintain access to secure communications at all times and comply with continuity of government protocols.
2. @SecRubio is entirely unapologetic and will continue to attend as many of his family’s events as his jobs allow— that includes his son’s football games for his final year of college football.
3. Mandated travelers, including @SecRubio reimburse the government for all personal travel.
4. It’s moronic to compare the Secretary of State to Pete Buttigieg, who was Transportation Secretary — and not a required user of military aircraft.
5. The Post’s own story quotes watchdogs saying this isn’t a story and there’s nothing here.
Marco Rubio’s personal travel appears to significantly outpace that of his predecessors, former State Department officials said.
The flights have cost the government more than $1.2 million, The Post found, using Defense Department-published rates. wapo.st/3UHhabe

Rubio has like 5 jobs. He does all of them better than almost anyone else in the admin.
I realize that WaPo is desperate for a story but him traveling to see his son play while working 24/7 for the American people is not a real scandal.

One of the main causes for high energy prices is when politicians enact policies when 1) they don't understand how markets work, 2) they don't understand energy supply, and/or 3) they are trying to manipulate the energy sector for political policy goals. This checks all 3.
Texas Gov.-elect Gina Hinojosa says she will declare a "high-cost emergency" and freeze residential electricity rates within an hour of taking office.
The plan clashes with Texas' competitive energy market, where over 100 retail providers compete for consumers under a deregulation law.
Nick Loris, president of @C3Journal, warns the freeze could leave suppliers unable to adequately provide power.

Not surprising I agree with both Greydon and Payton who are both thoughtful men. I would add the Lord of the Rings; both the books and the movies. They both teach boys (and girls) that violence against evil is important for society and not to be feared. The best quote...

Ladies and Gentleman, I did not know how bad it was for Harvard grad students. I have been informed that they have roommates!
One day, we will look back on this and ask ourselves how we ever let it happen.

Then make different life choices. I am opting not to pursue having children while not in a place to adequately support them.
The onus is on you to plan your life, not the world to bod the whims of 1 in 9 billion
“2 grad student roommates”
Do people understand that grad students are adults who sometimes have kids and families to support? Not everyone can live with roommates. $51k in a town where the average rent for a 1-bedroom is $3,300 is poverty wages.

Are young, paid Ivy League grad students the most sympathetic and oppressed group or ???
Getting paid (by agreement) to get a debt free PhD from a top global university. It’s like slavery but WORSE.
Granted the phd is prob in something retarded, but still. Workers unite! lol

We’ll have details on our San Francisco pro-data center party out tomorrow!
We’re hyped.
1) grad studentry in and of itself is not a field. It’s an apprenticeship.
2) unionization is best suited to dangerous fields where actual human safety is at risk. Quitting is best suited to roles where ur perfectly cushy and just want better perks
I wrote this post in response to some folks claiming that TAing is not actual work, so grad students should not unionize/strike. Im glad folks in other fields get paid well, and I would wish the same for grad students as well.

“Indentured servant” is when you’re in school and you can drop out at any time.

It’s too bad that no Harvard graduate student had the choice to go to any other school.

Roommates? Budgeting for "fall trip"?
Les Miserables!
