None of this is a mystery. Reading Warrens bio, early career is as bankruptcy law expert, taking various cases largely on technical matters of bankruptcy law. Then she gets more focused on consumer bankruptcy and that leads her in the direction of ... nytimes.com/2019/10/28/us/…
2/ middle class economics and eventually progressive politics. Lines up with her being at least a nominal/registered Republican until the mid-90s. The evolution is entirely credible and indeed laudable. Mainly critics are making a dumb critique. But warrens campaign ...
3/ would be wise to embrace the evolution a bit more.

I’m always a bit ambivalent about sharing or publicizing this information. Because on its face it sounds like, “Damn, those guys are swimming in money or growing like gangbusters!” Well, not exactly. But when you see all these sites closing down or sold for parts or where ...
2/ the new boss calls everyone together and says they’re all fired it’s because the site’s business model collapsed. Or just as often it’s because the investors who were floating the operation belatedly realized that scale and ads were never going to generate the ...
3/ kinds of returns they were investing against. So they pulled the plug. Well, our business model collapsed too. In fact, probably more dramatically since we lacked scale and access to capital and synergies with other brands to leverage against the decline.

There is no inherent reason why someone like John Yoo, who lacks a grounded understanding of the constitution, should also be a mendacious bad actor. But here he shows he’s both. He purposefully misstates the issue by calling Rudy a “presidential envoy.” He also knows ...
2/ that someone who is a conduit for espionage, even unintentional, is guilty of a profound breach, even if they are not criminally liable. Yoo’s comments were a disgraceful smear and he is clumsily backtracking now because he got out ahead of his skis in the Fox News garbage ...
3/ info ecosystem before finding out that evenly reliably pro-Trump elected officials were offended by his immoral conduct.

I’m in a car to studio so lines are wobbly. But I’ve wanted to capture the way the players in the Ukraine extortion scheme have used lawyer/client privilege (or claim to have) to bottle up courts or any potential investigators.
2/ I’ll get the names in later. Most of you know the faces. As you see, Giuliani is representing the two hustlers (Parnas & Fruman). He also says they are his investigators for his representation of Prez Trump & thus are shielded by his L/C privilege representing the President.
3/ Meanwhile there’s a parallel set up with the lawyers for Dmitry Firtash, the oligarch who agreed to manufacture damaging allegations against Joe Biden. Fox power lawyers Toensing and DiGenova are repping Firtash. And Parnas is part of that representation as a “translator.”

One question I often get to answer from early career professionals with keen interest for #HR is;

How can I develop myself to start a #career in HR?

I'll share briefly.

Skills & knowledge to develop to kick-start a career in #HumanResource.

A THREAD! #careeradvice
I believe what I'll be sharing will be relevant to you, whether you’re kickstarting your career in #HR or you’re a seasoned HR professional.

I'll share some of the most important HR skills and offer advice on how to cultivate them. #careeradvice
Averagely, there is a common misconception that HR professionals are often unprofessional and tend to abuse power - as much as I don't align with this, I believe those that have been culpable represent themselves and not the profession.

#HR is one of the best careers to pursue.

Long thread on thematising, prompted by a colleague. Please mute if not relevant! ...

In #IPA, a theme is not a just a 'topic' – its more than just a 'thing that people talked about'. A topic is a thing that people talked about – i.e it’s an object of concern. [1/16]
2. In #IPA, interpretation begins with the identification of these objects, but there is considerably more work to do before we have a pattern of meaning that we could treat as thematic.
3. A *theme* in IPA usually tells you something about ‘noema’ (content) but via a person’s *perspective* – i.e tells you about people's relationship to the objects of concern in their world (the meaning for them) #IPA

Early 2000’s super trashy Keith who does a ton of drugs and goes to raunchy metal concerts 👌👌
Sets houses on fire with his friends, gets into a bad car accident with his friends, his friends end up ditching the scene with Keith dying in the desert. Someone from the nearby marines base finds him and helps him.
Ends up exchanging numbers and sending letters to each other when shiro is deployed. Never one to stick around for people, it works for Keith

Indian law protects women from all kinds of domestic abuse. To know more about the provisions of Protection of Women Against Domestic Violence Act, 2005 read our explainer: bit.ly/2CMVlfS
PWDV Act, 2005, gives a broad definition of what qualifies as ‘domestic abuse’. It includes physical, sexual, verbal, emotional and economic abuse. Section 3 reads:
The Act provides for a ‘Protection Officer’ to help you through various processes under the law. This Officer can help you file the complaint, tell you about your rights, make an application to the Magistrate for you, etc.

Okay, here we go!

Some descriptive plots and observations from the new @IMFnews data of tax policy measures in 23 advanced and emerging economies over four decades (imf.org/~/media/Files/…):
(Two notes before we get into it:

1. These are mostly plots looking at longitudinal trends. Suggestions for alternative relationships to look at are very welcome. What's interesting to you?

2. Still honing my data viz skills, so plot design comments very welcome too.)
Okay, first: 1990s and early 2000s clearly had most tax reform activity (in raw numbers of measures) since 1970 - across the globe.

THREAD: a #bankruptcy case in Los Angeles may lead to MORE charges against #Manafort, including BANKRUPTCY FRAUD‼️

Mueller is focusing on Jeffrey Yohai, Manafort’s fmr son-in-law & partner, as a potentially valuable witness.🤣😂🤣 1/

reuters.com/article/us-usa…
Manafort failed to disclose a loan for a NY property from a lender that was also the main creditor in the California bankruptcy case👉🏼may represent an ILLEGAL concealment of material information = BANKRUPTCY FRAUD‼️🤨 2/
This is bit confusing, so I will try to break it down.🤓

In early 2017, Manafort’s company got a loan against a NY home from Genesis Capital LLC. Genesis ALSO was the top secured creditor (gave biggest loan) in the bankruptcies of the 4 houses in LA partnered w/Yohai.🤔 3/
