@LevarStoney Announce late just before elections, abt decision already made. Where’s the quantitative analysis showing #RVA can afford this? NEED REAL $$ NUMBERS, not hand waving, blind estimates on jobs. Same kind of approach as Dwight Jones. 👎🏻
$1.4 BILLION could give #RPS schools updates they need. Running up another $1.4 B debt IN ADDITION TO the $750 Million DEBT for schools. @LevarStoney gets a GRADE of ZERO on FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITY. Its a slithery way to justify raise of real estate taxes 2
3/ Run #RVA into $2 BILLION IN DEBT to justify raising taxes. Worst mismanagement of this city in DECADES.

@chinaorgcn @chineseembassy If China so concerned w recovery of territory, why not start with ALL THAT LAND of NorthEastern RUSSIA , TAKEN FROM CHINA BY FORCE by Tsarist Russia during Qing Dynasty in mid 1850s. Extensive oil & mineral resources. @PDChina @XHNews
That sovereign land was taken BY FORCE far more recently (150 years) vs 600 -800 years in China’s illegal claims on S Sea reefs under International Law and affirmed in International courts. China is now an OUTLAW state under international law.@chinaorgcn @PDChina @chineseembassy
Millions of resource rich land in NE Russia truly BELONGS TO @china NOT RUSSIA. Tsarist Russia grabbed land fr China during Qing Dynasty. Why not try to get that land back? That IS rightfully @china Legitimate claim unlike S Sea & artificial reefs. @UN

@jimsciutto @SenSanders @AC360 Ask him about his campaign’s coordination with Trump campaign in 2016. Ask why his campaign has been under investigation by Robert Mueller (with an indictment). Also ask him if he is a @TheDemocrats or not. If not why is he running as a Democrat?
@jimsciutto @SenSanders @AC360 @TheDemocrats @jimsciutto Is Bernie’s reason for using @TheDemocrats @DNC party infrastructure just because it’s the only way he can get an organization suitable for a presidential run?
@jimsciutto @SenSanders @AC360 @TheDemocrats @DNC Ask Bernie if he knew his campaign strategist and Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort were business partners and regularly coordinating during the Democratic primaries. Ask Bernie why he has always been such a Russophile.

@CNBC @WSJ @MONEY @Forbes Models have real value in decision making, showing trends & changes, but let the science, your knowledge, inform your assessments and guide judgement. @steveliesman @MelissaLeeCNBC Make decisions based on rational processes not emotion, not panic.
Volatility became a market problem again in 2007 after Chris Cox revoked the old “uptick rule”put in place by FDR asJoeKennedySr said to prevent stock market from collapsing as in ‘29. Ask @jimcramer abt that story.
There are mathematical reasons to need a braking mechanism. Without it, acceleration in a downward direction can cause a stock price to collapse. I agree with Cooperman’s view. The uptick rule prevented stock market crashes for 70+ years. The individual “circuit breakers” don’t.

1. My Predictions For 2019:
- #Macron will find it more & more difficult to hold onto power.
- #Merkel won't last until 2021 & her power will further decrease this year quarter by quarter.
- I expect that the #Brexit-Exit-date will be moved (most likely by 12 months).
2. My Predictions For 2019:
- The issues of mass-#migration (few real #refugees) will continue to haunt #Europe, especially #Germany & continue to put pressure on the GER #Groko-government (#CDU/#CSU & #SPD).
#Predictions2019 #Year2019
3. My Predictions For 2019:
- The trend of right parties gaining more power (2018: #Italy, #Austria, #Brazil) will continue: In #France #LePen (#FN) will benefit from #Macron losing power, in #Germany the #AfD will gain further support in Eastern Germany (tbc).

1/ The origin of what would be called Microsoft Excel [original code name Plan 2.0 and then Odyssey] can be traced to a retreat at the Red Lion hotel in Bellevue in October of 1983. Bill Gates, Jeff Raikes, Doug Klunder, Jabe Blumenthal, Pete Higgins and others were there.
2/ Microsoft Multiplan version 1.00 for MS-DOS shipped on August 1, 1982 and had a valuable feature called re-calc. In 1981 there were about 70 or 80 different personal computer architectures (e.g., 6502, Apple II, Z80, CPM/80, MS-DOS, CPM/86). Mutliplan ran on all of them.
3/ January 20, 1983 Lotus shipped 16-bit 1-2-3, which finished a short fiscal year with about $53 million in revenue. The three key features of Lotus 1-2-3 were: faster spreadsheets, bigger spreadsheets and built-in business graphics, all of which were well mapped to the IBM PC.

#Analysis: Ending #BirthrightCitizenship for the children of illegal immigrants and birth tourists has long been the crown jewel of pro-sovereignty immigration reformers. It's about interpreting the #14Amendment of the #Constitution correctly. Thread.
First, to quote the great Ann Coulter, it's laughable to think that any Founder, Framer or Amender of the Constitution intended for American citizenship to be the prize in a game of Red Rover with the Border Patrol. We're a nation of laws, after all.
Second, #14Amendment was one of three emancipation-related amendments to the #Constitution, designed to grant citizenship to former slaves and their children. The congressional record shows nobody believed 600,000 Americans died to give Congress the chance to open the borders.

1/Long tweetstorm about the bumpy road toward developing macroeconometric models at the Fed in the 1960s, and their difficult integration into the monetary policy decision-making process

Based on paper w/ @jcaacostamacia here osf.io/preprints/soca…

Tweets reflect my views
2/Our goal was to supplement those accounts of the “scientization” of central banking which are backed by quantitative analysis showing rise of PhD econ in decision (see @foxjust hbr.org/2014/02/how-ec… ) and advising positions (see @claveau_f & Dion epistemopratique.org/en/publication… )
3/ our story challenges idea of a late swift takeover of the Fed by PhD econs. It shows that which kind of analysis Fed econs developed mattered more than their training & that their traction over monetary decisions relied on which combination of science & art the Board pursued

Late night reading a Style Weekly article from 2006 about Paul Goldman. Anyone else read it and get a sense of déjà vu? 👀

Brace yourself for a thread of receipts. (1/25)
#RVA #RVAMayor #RVACouncil #RPSBoard 🧜🏻‍♀️
Unless you’ve been under a rock for the past year, you have probably heard about the “School Modernization Referendum.” Here is a great article that summarized what it is. Basically what it does is tell #RVAMayor @LevarStoney to get a plan together (2/25)

richmond.com/news/local/edu…
to fully fund school infrastructure without raising taxes or publicly state it can’t be done. This was put forward by none other than Paul Goldman and carried primarily by the Richmond Crusade for Voters. The original plan was for Loupassi and Sturtevant to carry (3/25)

This is a thread that is intended to show how important community involvement and advocacy is. People often speak about gentrification as if it is an inevitable conclusion to development but recent efforts by South Richmond community members tell a different story. #RVA 🧜🏻‍♀️
In March 2018, @StyleWeekly named Michael and Laura Hild “Best Revivalist Couple” in their Best of Richmond edition. #RVA
Following a May community meeting, on June 15th @__MarkRobinson reported on the expansion of Manchester Historic District. He states that investment following historic district designations often coincide w/ gentrification. #RVA 🧜🏻‍♀️
