It really felt (very stats based) the 4222 was coming together towards the end of the season. It will be interesting to see what moves they make, how Marczuk fits in after he lost his spot to GoZo, if Olatunji continues to grow into it, etc. Cabral, Luna, Gozo, Ojeda, Glad(eh), Katranis can stay.

I think Matt does great work but missing a 4222 that brought more success than a 4231 just shows how massive MLS has gotten. Even Doyle the Great can't cover all the bases as well as he used to.

In the end, the idea of a tear down isn't wrong. It's a tired group of players that need a change. #RSL

Texas Governor Declares Muslim Civil Rights Group a β€˜Terrorist Organization’

The normalization of anti-Muslim hate speech is vile.

Except, this won't make housing more attainable, more affordable, more stable.

Lawrence H. Summers
@LHSummers
I found this article by a former Harvard Crimson President very disturbing. The moral bankruptcy that led the Crimson to endorse BDS some time ago, without subsequent withdrawal, appears to have spread to the news pages. 

(I have shared Stoll's article to several at the Crimson without substantive response and this tracks with the things I have observed.) 

Many of the students I have engaged with at the Crimson have high integrity and smarts but I do hope alumni trustees will investigate and take any necessary steps lest a problematic situation deteriorate further.

Todd Blanche, the deputy attorney general, issued a statement saying that I was lying about the circumstances leading up to my firing. Then I was invited by the Democrats on the Judiciary Committee to testify in front of Congress. The administration sent armed U.S. Marshals to my home to deliver a letter warning me about testifying. A career employee who was still at the department helped me get it called off before they got to my house, where my teenager was home alone. I felt the purpose was to intimidate me. And I think it was intended to send a message to other department employees, too, who might be thinking about speaking up.

I needed a lawyer. I spent the entire weekend calling all of the lawyers that I know at law firms around D.C. Everybody I talked to was saying: β€œThank you so much for what you’re doing. We’ll do whatever we can behind the scenes to support you.” But nobody actually wanted to sit behind me at a congressional hearing. Nobody wanted to put their name on a letter to Todd Blanche.

The DOJ ordered US Marshals to the house of the pardon attorney who refused to sign off on a pardon to give Mel Gibson back his guns. Big law firms told her they supported her but did not want to be seen representing her.
This is the use of government-sponsored fear to silence dissent.

Why home insurance is unaffordable, even in places without wildfires or hurricanes Some of the country's highest home insurance prices are in the central U.S., a region generally considered to be protected from climate-driven disasters such as wildfires and hurricanes.
