Bryce Mitchell on Trump's White House UFC fight: Our government is desecrating its role in society by entertaining sports. Our government is to protect and serve the people. Our tax dollars and resources are funding this operation. The government is supposed to protect us, not entertain us.

I was the first governor in the country to ban state employees from using insider information to profit on prediction markets. We work for the people, not to get rich.

🍔 🌭 Nicer weather means it’s time to grill. When you do, be safe! Only grill outdoors, well away from your home, deck and overhanging branches. Keep children and pets at least 3 feet away. Keep the grill clean and free from grease or fat buildup. Never leave a grill unattended.

You heard it here first, building housing lowers prices and we have to do several million units for it to work, let's get going
What I will say about Zohran’s YIMBYism is that it fails on its own terms. 200k apartments over a decade is not enough to lower the price at all. The number would need to be at least a million to drop it even 1%, and it’d need to happen faster.
