Fact check: Trump makes false claims about the economy, elections and crime in State of the Union | CNN Politics President Donald Trump made numerous false or misleading claims in his State of the Union address on Tuesday night.

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court.

Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business.

As well as everyone else who stepped up.

ISA—Intelligent Speed Assistance—can do this and is doing it already in Europe. Why are we as a nation so reluctant to do things that have already been proven to work elsewhere?

Waymos will do no more to reduce parking demand than regular taxis and ubers do. They will also add to congestion as they cruise around empty waiting for fares.

Definitely hard to speculate without seeing it.
I never understand why motorists park their cars in bike lanes either, but I see a lot of that, too.
