Horseshoe isn't even close to being a sandwich. You eat with with a fork and knife, unless you're insane I guess.

That 2022 spike is amazing when you think of the massive disruption we are seeing today vs the relatively minor disruption the Russia invasion caused. Granted, perhaps worst is yet to come but I'd expect markets to be more forward looking in that case.

Is this the unemployment rate under differ acceleration in GDP scenarios that you mean? If so, do you think GDP is actually accelerating in that way? In not following what you mean here.

I knew Chris from way back when we were both members of the Downtown Austin Neighborhood Association. Sorry to just now hear of his passing almost 2 years ago. Great cause in memory of a great human being!

Exactly. Trump is dumb. Best case, ICE really does help (unlikely), reduces lines and delays etc. AND gets them off city streets. Takes pressure off Democrats to cave. Worst case they misbehave in a very high profile way and strengthen Democrats' argument for no deal without meeting their demands.

Should be all of CTA leadership's, including the board's, job. Heck, they could even just make their assistants do it. They need to care though.

And if it is as he says then why does Trump present this as a threat to us all? If it is as he says (it isn't) then this is a great idea. More like Trump is threatening us with masked thugs, high powered weapons, tear gas and beatings in the airport. Ask him about that.

Perhaps it's more that he is systematically rejecting their appeals so they have no results to show their clients. From their perspective they'd probably want an appeal win at both the assessor and the board of review levels. And I doubt they really think Kaegi is over assessing even if they say so.

How many Republicans do they think will vote to confirm the next Democratic president's NSA director? These people are brainless.

This should be some of Chicago's most valuable real estate for public space that would attract tourism from all over the world, but instead...a highway.
