Everyone should be extremely happy that Joe Manchin decided to run for re-election in 2018 rather than retiring. https://t.co/W013nml3Nn — PolitiTweet.org

The vast majority of Republican Party voters are good people who simply can’t believe the leaders of their party are dramatically more committed to advancing the interests of wealthy criminals than to almost any other cause, but it is what it is. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Yes, exactly, the purpose of the additional funding is to equip the IRS with the ability to go after rich tax cheats. The purpose of GOP opposition to funding the tax police is to make it easier for rich criminals to rip off the public. It’s shocking and appalling. — PolitiTweet.org

In other words, if inflation were accelerating then "how much higher does unemployment need to go for us to reach a non-accelerating inflation rate of unemployment?" would be a very good question. But it isn't accelerating, so... — PolitiTweet.org

Don't totally understand the current NAIRU debate given that inflation, while high, is in fact already non-accelerating. — PolitiTweet.org

I mean, again, Republicans voted for CHIPS because they believed (rightly) that CHIPS was a good bill that would improve US competitiveness vis-a-vis China. What's insane is they now want to jeopardize that because Joe Manchin is taxing multi-millionaires. — PolitiTweet.org

Whether or not you call it a recession, it’s impressive to keep employment growing in the face of serious supply shocks but the shocks themselves are just inevitably bad news for the economy. To get more growth, we need supply side reform. https://t.co/xEv2SGBQ61 — PolitiTweet.org

If Republicans wanted to cut spending they could cut spending. But the Trump and W Bush administrations both increased spending in the aggregate. What they specifically cut spending on was tax enforcement, because their favorite people in the world are rich criminals. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattyglesias Or they just don’t think the government should be taking so much money from people to squander on useless programs
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Don't look to the US Senate to cut car dependency, look to the DC Council. Look to the state legislatures in CA, OR, WA, MA, CT, NY, NJ, and MD. They have all the power they need. https://t.co/4tfaDTW151 — PolitiTweet.org

The problem with IIJA as climate legislation is that spending money alone can't make people ride transit, you need agencies to actually improve operations and to get cities and states to improve land use policy. But this is wholly within the power of blue state governments. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
I think this is a kind of short-sighted criticism, last year's Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act contained by far the largest investment in mass transit and intercity passenger rail of any legislation in American history. https://t.co/2HGLk6Gtfe — PolitiTweet.org

How does the NBER dating committee actually work? Do the eight of them need to get together in person in Cambridge and hash it out at Darwin's around the corner? Can they do it in California where half of them live instead? Do they have a Slack channel? https://t.co/HCNbbrawHB — PolitiTweet.org

I think it is probably true that when conservatives oppose tax enforcement the *intended* beneficiaries of their plan are workaday multi-millionaire businessmen with the going easy on the drug smugglers just a kind of side effect, but it's a very bad gestalt. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Funding the tax police is one of the most economically efficient ways to raise revenue. But beyond that, rigorous tax enforcement is also a good way to catch serious violent criminals and others with illicit sources of income. https://t.co/JXSctK9UwC — PolitiTweet.org
