When the big banks say that their balance sheet is strong, what they really mean is that each one of them has at least a couple of congressmen on the asset side of the ledger.

Despite the occasional embarrassment, Harvard Law School has a lot of professors with intelligence and integrity. For example ...

Elizabeth Warren was the best bankruptcy expert in the country back in the 1990s.
So was Donald Trump ... in a way.
Bankruptcy can do two things. Just ask the experts.
Bankruptcy can make it very difficult for working families to get back on their feet.
Ask @ewarren. She studied that problem for decades.
Bankruptcy is a great way for rich men to rip off their creditors.
Ask @realDonaldTrump.

As published in @thecrimson.
It is sad to watch professors and the president at @Harvard fawn over a man (with no college degree) and treat him as a great intellectual, simply because of his money.

Mogul Donor Gives Harvard More Than Money
thecrimson.com/article/2003/5…
It is one thing to take the money from a donor without a background check.
But it is another thing, and revolting to watch professors fawn over a man -- acting as if he somehow was a man of great intellect -- simply because of his money.
Larry Summers the President of Harvard who fawned over Epstein's intellect in this 2003 article in @thecrimson was fired in 2006 for saying that women can't do science. But Epstein, with no college degree, was the man of the hour in, among other things, evolutionary biology.

This is ridiculous.
@speakerpelosi has made a fool of herself attacking freshman congresswoman @AOC instead of impeaching Trump.
@JoeBiden needs to stay out of that and focus on Trump or @speakerpelosi will drag him down too.

2020 is shaping up to be a year when we have to choose between liars and losers.
Just about everyone who supports @realDonaldTrump is a liar.
Democrats who spend their time fighting with other Democrats instead of impeaching @realDonaldTrump are sure to be losers.
Last time I read the Constitution it didn't say that when the president is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors the Speaker of the House is supposed to ...
go pick a fight with a freshman congresswoman from New York.

"What just happened in the United States represented an existential threat to the integrity of our institutions."

These people broke the law because they believed they were above it.
They must be held accountable.

@DevinNunes is a HERO!

@rogerkimball amgreatness.com/2019/04/13/pur…
The full text:

"Last month, @thechrisbuskirk wrote a column for the Spectator USA describing Representative Devin Nunes as “a hero of the Republic.”

It was well-deserved praise.
Nunes, a Republican Congressman from a rural district in California was, until January, chairman of the House Permanent Special Committee on Intelligence (he is now the ranking member).
