This discourse has gotten away from us already but gas stoves are a coastal elite thing. Most people, especially in the heartland, are using electric coils. https://t.co/edifoemo7a https://t.co/cEh14JJUWN — PolitiTweet.org

Like suppose you found out that New Zealand was an elaborate prank played by Taika Waititi and Jermaine Clement with Peter Jackson doing the CGI. You'd be surprised. But not totally shocked. I say there's a five percent chance. — PolitiTweet.org

@AdamMantine This is a very contentious response to my tweet. Here's my advice to you. Take a deep breath. Read the tweet again. If there is something the tweet actually says that you think is wrong, then let me know. But if there isn't, then take this argument elsewhere. — PolitiTweet.org

In general, imposing higher environmental performance regulation on new construction is a good idea IF you are also rolling back other regulations that discourage new construction. But it only improves environmental outcomes if new stuff gets built! — PolitiTweet.org

There's a subtle but important difference between banning gas hookups in new construction as part of an initiative to encourage electrification and banning gas hookups in new construction as part of an effort to layer-on yet another barrier to adding housing supply. — PolitiTweet.org

Thus you generate more than $10 for a $10 increase the face value of debt. And because debt is constantly rolling over, you can replace more than $10 of old face value with the new high-coupon bond — the face value of the debt magically shrinks. https://t.co/COhytbUf63 — PolitiTweet.org

Instead of saying “give us $100 for this $100 bond and we’ll pay you a modest interest rate?” go to auction and say “here’s a $10 bond with a very high interest rate, how much will you pay us for it?” Investors would pay more than $10 for that bond. https://t.co/COhytbUf63 — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s how it works: The debt ceiling (which is unconstitutional and superseded by appropriations bills anyway) purports to limit the *face value* of federal debt not the interest, which means Treasury can simply shrink the face value on new issuances. https://t.co/COhytbUf63 — PolitiTweet.org
