If they count as urban, probably my favorite in the US. But man that drive from Phoenix sure is straight…

is there anybody even denying that the pardons are paid for or do we just kind of all accept this now?

I mean it clearly degrades the offering for the viewing public to have wide swaths of teams intentionally trying not to win! especially in face of a plausible alternative

I‘m proposing a hard salary cap. Just doing away with draft. ensures equal spending while removing huge rankling issue.

With a sufficiently hard cap not likely.

Very unlikely that this would happen, but homeowners may not see unearned capital gains of 50% in 5 years, as has happened recently in Princeton.

Who knows what Eric Adams will do next but don't rule out him shilling for a company that makes nutritional supplements.

A functional cure and a virtually foolproof means of prevention and yet the state of the HIV pandemic is a stunning success of science and a massive failure of politics, economics, and public health

Remains absolutely wild to me we have a functional cure for HIV/AIDS.

A deeply dangerous — and blatantly retaliatory action against Colorado — by the Trump administration.

NCAR is one of the most renowned scientific facilities in the WORLD — where scientists perform cutting-edge research everyday.

We will fight this reckless directive with every legal tool we have.

Chart of National Median Asking rent from realtor.com. It shoes a slight decline in rents over the past couple of years.

We actually are starting to see rents come down a bit, but that probably has more to do with homebuilding picking up in a lot of cities, not the Trump administration's predilection for terrorizing day laborers. www.realtor.com/research/nov...

It was genuinely an honor to meet Mr. Chavarria at Tuesday's hearing. His story is incredible; grew up in a refugee camp in Honduras, graduated as a valedictorian at 15, got scholarships in the US, met his husband here, became a US citizen, and is now a school superintendent in Vermont.

We just cancelled <all> federal area studies/foreign language funding at universities nationwide to ostensibly “save” $86M. How much of that did we waste on this one authoritarian farce alone?

Trump 0-3 on indicting Tish James and just had his ass handed to him by Indiana Republican legislators he threatened and bullied. Also new low in AP poll at 36% approval.

Democrats warn their party may try to unravel any Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery deal A new letter from Reps. Sam Liccardo, D-Calif., and Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., also raised concerns about foreign investors’ involvement.

This is 100% the correct (and obvious) move by Dems and they need to do it Every. Single. Time: counter Republicans strongarming companies/schools by openly and directly saying "we will be in charge in like a year and will absolutely make this cost you."

If your origins are Southern Italian, Irish, Polish etc. some version of this claim - the immigrant is a criminal underclass incompatible with the true Americans - has been around forever. They hate that the idea of America is more important than any group.
