Huh, weird. When the "cash strapped city council" has voted to increase the police budget every single year, it has literally never once been framed this way. Not once. $175k is what a single cop costs annually, btw.

The only statement they should make it not to go. Insane to turn up and honor this man who hates you and will use this as yet another occasion to berate and humiliate you and your employers and the First Amendment as a whole.

Constitutional lawyer here. I don't think it would violate the Constitution for the VP/Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment, but the intended constitutional remedy for this behavior is impeachment & removal. The fact that that remedy is politically impossible is a scandal and a crisis.

Heineman has made 3 dreadful mistakes over the course of less than 2 full games. And Brendon Little needs to go away for a while. A long while.

This isn't working right now for Brendon Little. He has an option remaining, which means this doens't need to be an extreme (or permanent) move. A reset in Buffalo would clearly be beneficial. There's no such thing as "early" in the AL East. These are all big games.

The information we have about the Iran War is incomplete and unreliable and it’s still clearly a debacle. The full story is likely much worse.

It sure would be nice if CBC reporters introduced some facts into these sorts of stories. Such as: How much is the federal gas tax? How much are provincial gas taxes? And how do they contribute to the overall cost of gasoline?

If the stakes weren't so high and the human toll wasn't so awful, it would be genuinely very funny how little of a shit Trump gives about any part of his job that isn't renovations or rigging elections. The most obviously checked out dude in history.
