States' rights/local control means "only Republicans get to decide."
e.g., Texas suing under states' rights, but prohibiting cities from banning fracking.

As a Patriots fan, I'm not sure who should be most insulted by this. 😀

"States' rights" and "local control" are dog whistles that only apply when they mean Republicans get to call the shots.

Edelman actually had a meteoric rise as a rookie that was derailed by injury. He was actually leading all rookies in receptions when he broke his arm against the Titans, and that was as a conversion project from QB.

Hating on trans people and immigrants was more important to too many Americans.

The cross country runner is CT who filed a suit over having to compete against transgender girls actually beat said girls in a meet. . . .

TBH the long-term answer isn't forgiveness, but vastly reducing/replacing interest. (E.g., simple interest or an admin fee)

Other than size they haven't really needed to change for about 25 million years or so, so, yeah.

IMO, the fact that several of the Ivys are so generous is partly responsible for the rise in applications, and I don't consider that a bad thing.

Ugh. He's nobody's favorite, and saying that about the word woke is purely parroting GOP talking points.
Why is he letting the GOP set the terms? FFS.

I believe in anti-ossification limits (e.g., on the order of 24 years in either chamber or 30 years total), but I am vehemently opposed to anything below 18 total.

Because as a head of state sometimes you have to meet politely with people you'd rather punch in the mouth.
