It is funny for sure. The reason for the difference is that the closer analogy here is between Columbia's board and ABC's executives, who responded similarly.

NEW: We won our first court judgment against a dangerous out-of-state driver under the STEER Act.

The Court ordered Ayanna Khalya Wilson to pay $77,100 for over 200 dangerous driving violations.

We also filed 12 new lawsuits against Maryland and Virginia drivers with nearly 2,000 traffic offenses.

At an R1, dropoff post covid. Strong recovery since. School is not SAT/ACT optional though. so strong selection on basic math/reading abilities.

American students are getting dumber, the trend started before Covid and has only gotten worse since the pandemic ended

Just to be clear, the Left doing "cancel culture" means they exercise Free Speech by stop inviting you to happy hour bc you won't stop saying the n-word; the Right doing "cancel culture" means they illegally use the Government to punish you. Left is pro-1A, Right is anti-1A, always has been.

wait, did they every figure out who philly karen is?

Paved Paradise is a fascinating book that includes some Arlington County history!

isn;t that just temporary until construction is done? or i hope so.

if this was fully true, I'd expect aggregate alcohol sales to have fallen even more

DC council okays record-shattering $6.6B+ stadium subsidy for Commanders in exchange for local hiring promise The D.C. city council voted on Mayor Muriel Bowser's Washington Commanders stadium plan on Friday, and it went as expected, approving the revised agreement 9-3. Needing five votes to block a two-third...

“Commanders owner Josh Harris is now set to get $1.058 billion in city cash plus at least $5.6 billion in free rent and tax breaks, which will be the biggest public sports subsidy in U.S. history by a mile.”

The only way for a retail business to secure their future in DC is by owning their building/land.

I think the founders of palintir took the wrong lessons from both of those books

COLBERT: You warned everyone…he would prosecute political enemies, cut Medicaid, alienate our allies, give tax cuts to the rich. I know you're not here to say 'I told you so' but would you like to?

Zohran Mamdani Has Some Good Ideas for NYC Transit. His Biggest Promise Isn’t One of Them. Riders don't want buses to be free. They want something else.

In @slate.com , I explained why Zohran Mamdani’s proposal for fare-free buses is a bad idea for NYC.

the singular message of this ad is "zohran loves new york city" and it is incredibly effective

Just nailed glover park. Big tree branches down in the alley.

I don’t think there is a single kid over 3 at my daycare who still rides in a backwards car seat. And in the prime demographic for helicopter parenting.

Yeah. We’re going to get some rain soon.

I didn't see this coming, DC car deaths are significantly down YTD. Last year, we were at 25 deaths and 167 major injuries. This year, 9 deaths and 134 major injuries.

Glass half empty part, major injuries are up for pedestrians and cyclists.
